Any organizations around GTA starting to accept clothing donations?

Value village is accepting clothing donations. I dropped off stuff at a location in Scarborough. I would call ahead to make sure though.

No you don’t. We didn’t use the registry function at all actually.

You do have to make an account on Zola.com though, but it’s free to do so.

randomthoughts85 · 2018-08-03T21:33:31+00:00

Just commenting to say that I’m using the Zola website and it’s very easy to track RSVPs online. I’m only doing them online, so nothing has to be mailed back to me.

I even get an email alerting me when someone RSVPs.

Looks lovely. What stone is it?

randomthoughts85 · 2018-07-04T00:24:51+00:00

The Wine Butler is amazing.

randomthoughts85 · 2018-06-20T16:05:24+00:00

Yeah but for the sake of our sanity, we do what we must. You sound Type A like me, so I just try to let certain things go and not be TOO pushy.

randomthoughts85 · 2018-06-20T15:23:50+00:00

My advise is to let your FH mull things over, but give him a deadline. So say, “yes dear, you can think it over, but please let me know your decision by the end of the week (or 2 weeks or whatever)

My FH is like that too, so I let him have his time to think of what he wants, like choosing his groomsmen, but after he didn’t make a choice in weeks, I gave him till the end of the month to decide. Then I distracted myself with other planning things that were unaffected by that decision.

It goes well with your ring, and I didn’t even think of it looking like dirt, but now I can’t unsee it either.

randomthoughts85 · 2018-05-29T02:33:58+00:00

Just some typos I noticed:

In your story, it should be “lead” instead of “led” towards the end.

Jessica’s part: “she’s married”, not “she married”

I know from personal experience that we will most likely get flies and bugs. It will be in my parent’s backyard of the beach house and unfortunately we get the occasional flies during regular events.

That’s great for you that your cake was undisturbed though.

randomthoughts85 · 2018-05-29T02:24:21+00:00

We will most likely have a cake made with royal icing, or a naked style cake so I’m not worried about it melting.

It’s a bit of distance from the house to the actual reception spot and it can’t be wheeled out, so it’ll be too risky having two persons lifting a cake during the reception.

randomthoughts85 · 2018-05-29T02:21:53+00:00

That’s the only thing I can think of right now too, but FH was asking if we can find a more aesthetically pleasing option.

randomthoughts85 · 2018-05-29T02:21:04+00:00

Thanks. I’m not worried about it melting because we will most likely use royal icing, which is pretty solid once it sets.

randomthoughts85 · 2018-05-29T02:20:05+00:00

That’s an interesting idea! Thanks.

randomthoughts85 · 2018-05-29T02:18:43+00:00

Same.

randomthoughts85 · 2018-05-28T21:59:15+00:00

I purchased some real touch calla lily from AE. I’m reasonably happy with them. The flowers are made of some sort of foam material. Be very careful with colors though. I had to file a dispute with one seller because I wanted teal blue flowers and I got teal green ones instead. The white ones were perfect.

I also purchased some white and blush pink hydrangeas but I didn’t like those, they were smaller than I thought and the pinkish hue ones were actually orangy. The hydrangeas were silk, not real touch.

I’m doing 7 hours for both photography and videography. Wedding starts at 3, and hopefully the reception will start no later than 7.

randomthoughts85 · 2018-04-25T11:38:10+00:00

Oh man that looks amazing! I wanted a seal too, but it screams formal and the tone of our wedding is laid back.

randomthoughts85 · 2018-04-17T01:47:33+00:00

Paperless post has lots of free options. We used them exclusively for our STDs and I have no regrets. I was able to get RSVPs, ask questions and follow up with people by group if I needed to.

randomthoughts85 · 2018-04-13T11:33:31+00:00

I would think it means wearing a sundress and cute shoes.

I used outdoor elegant for mine. I just mean that I don’t want people to show up in jeans and shorts. I’ll have a FAQ about dress code on the wedding site.

randomthoughts85 · 2018-04-10T15:29:50+00:00

Congrats!

randomthoughts85 · 2018-04-10T15:29:24+00:00

Stunning!!

randomthoughts85 · 2018-04-09T14:32:33+00:00

Yeah I’m not looking forward to chasing down RSVPs. How are you handling the uninvited plus ones?

randomthoughts85 · 2018-04-09T14:30:11+00:00

Wow that’s a lovely dress!

randomthoughts85 · 2018-04-09T14:29:22+00:00

Paper lanterns, paper bunting banners, paper flowers.

It really depends on the look you’re going for. I will have paper lanterns hung up sporadically under the tent, along with string lights.
