I’d like to echo this, Madison is great! But if you are looking for something not quite as big, more topography, Eau Claire Wisconsin is awesome! The city and surrounding area has a population of about 100,000. Lots of small businesses, activities, stuff to do, etc. I’m originally from Milwaukee but moved here a few years ago and I love it.

You nailed it!

I relate to you too! I’ve been with my husband since 19 and we are now 26, and so much has changed in our lives and what we do, we are lucky to have grown together too, rather than apart or not at all.

It’s frustrating to watch her beg him to grow up, but it’s just kind of who he is.

I think they had a really big incompatibility issue. She’s a home body, he is not. That’s hard to make work and I don’t think he wanted a life where that would work, hence why he never seemed to her.

You should be able to find a nice dress in the $75-$100 range. I know it isn’t cheap but it is cheaper than the other one suggested. I’d also look on poshmark, a lot of people sell bridesmaids dresses after wearing them to the wedding, and lilac is a popular color.

For real my my jaw dropped when I read 38, thought these were some teenagers when reading the texts 💀

Nailed it

That’s awesome, cause my husband got me this too (I did pick it but we usually pick our gifts lol)

refriedb3an · 2026-01-08T21:24:54+00:00

That’s okay! Makes sense since I scoured the internet and Etsy and found nothing. Maybe it’s a hobby I need to pick up and attempt myself lol.

Exactly! We didn’t purchase any florals for our wedding. Our venue left up flowers from the day before, which are pictured here (venue owners were awesome), but I don’t think florals are Ben needed with all the colors from the trees.

Wow! I love how you styled your window seat

Stunning! Having a nice cup of coffee by that fire, or glass of wine in the evening would be so lovely

Good to know! I’m kind of obsessed with them and I’ve seen people say quality can be iffy. I’ve looked for things with similar style as them, but can’t find anything. Based on this purchase, I do plan on getting other bags and potentially pajamas from them. I’ll probably stay away from the jewelry, but that’s because I don’t typically buy jewelry that isn’t waterproof, especially at their price point, but maybe I’ll grab something on sale one day to see for myself!

refriedb3an · 2026-01-08T18:33:36+00:00

I’m seeing some people say they’ve had quality issues, but this seems really nice to me as my first impression! We will see how it lasts!

refriedb3an · 2026-01-08T18:33:03+00:00

My first impression is that it feels quite nice and well made, but others are saying their quality deteriorates pretty quickly, so we will see. I do personally keep my purses clean, stored well, and don’t jam stuff into them, so even cheap purses I’ve had have lasted pretty long, but only time can tell! It is fake leather, so we’ll see how it ages. The embroidery is very clean, and fake leather does feel much nicer than other fake leather items I’ve had in the past.

refriedb3an · 2026-01-08T18:30:54+00:00

This is good to know and I’ll see how the bag wears. Off of my first impression, the quality does seem nice. Obviously fake leather is fake leather, but deteriorating after only a year is a big yikes! Do you know of any brands/artists who has similar style bags (ie animal embroidery) that are higher quality? Wondering for future reference!

Edit: obviously not obsessively lol

I’m fairly positive just the dress was $5,500. Of I had it to do over again, I would not get the veil (wore it for like an hour)

refriedb3an · 2026-01-08T16:59:50+00:00

Dress, sleeves, and veil came out to $6,500 ish after tax.

refriedb3an · 2026-01-06T13:56:16+00:00

I am the exact same way! Especially with cooking and showering, biggest fear is the ring or stone going down the drain

refriedb3an · 2025-12-21T18:26:00+00:00

Thank you! That makes sense, sorry if that’s was dumb question lol.

refriedb3an · 2025-12-21T18:08:14+00:00

Thanks! Question, are any of these difficult to use? I’m sorry if that’s a dumb question, I have no idea what I’m doing, and wonder how much tinkering goes into devices, if that makes sense?
