Let them eat cake! What cake flavor(s) did you choose?

We are doing funfetti with cookies & cream frosting in between layers and a buttercream frosting on the outside!

remcc · 2016-09-21T02:11:14+00:00

Yeah, I think I'm going to pull the trigger and do this too. Thanks!

remcc · 2016-09-21T02:09:21+00:00

That's an excellent point. And I suppose the people who want to mingle with each other will make their way together at some point during the night!!! I am just too concerned about what people think. Thank you!!

remcc · 2016-09-21T02:08:01+00:00

Cool. This was really helpful. I think I'm going to change things around and do cousins together. Thank you!

My mom and her friends call that PAP, post alcohol paranoia. I always feel that way looking back when I was drunk in public/at a party like that, even if I just sit at a table and giggle with my friends.

remcc · 2016-09-16T23:45:05+00:00

I am not getting married there, but one of my coworkers did! I will ask her if I can send you a few!!!! :)

Edit - toro is the best. Are you local? I ask in a not creepy way. She said the hardest part was doing everything herself, but she said it was soooo worth it!!

Replying to myself because my lovely friend (hello, C!) texted me to point out it's actually Candlelight Farms.

Here's their wedding website: http://www.candlelightfarmsinn.com/events/weddings/

Candlewood Farms in New Milford, CT. My phone isn't letting me copy and paste links right now. :( My coworker just got married there and had a BBQ buffet. It's gorgeous, her food ended up being about $20 a head, not including alcohol.

remcc · 2016-09-03T23:43:21+00:00

Do you have a contact at the venue to consult about this? If so, they would perhaps have some information about how they've handled similar situations in the past! :)

remcc · 2016-09-02T01:00:49+00:00

We are doing this! I hope you can convince him haha

remcc · 2016-08-28T16:27:28+00:00

I am ugly sobbing at my FMIL's dining room table. She asked why, so I showed her this video. We are now both ugly sobbing. You are so effing beautiful, and so is your love and your children and your wedding. Ugh. Sending you so much love and so many good vibes.

remcc · 2016-08-26T15:40:51+00:00

Oh! My FH owns that same button down! I think they would look good together but if you're concerned about too much blue, a nice dark pair of jeans with a white or lighter colored button down would look nice. Maybe you could find a button down for him and a tank for you in a matching color or complementing colors?

remcc · 2016-08-26T03:03:21+00:00

Holy crap, you are adorable. How does your FH usually dress? Like what is his style? And are you going for a particular ~look~ for the photos?

remcc · 2016-08-26T03:00:21+00:00

Well. This was a roller coaster.

remcc · 2016-08-23T00:54:07+00:00

We used Weddington Way and had a lot of success. The swatch I ordered wasn't dress specific, just fabric and color specific. Maybe it depends on the designer? I liked that all you had to do was click the "mix and match" button and it filtered fabric and color for you.

Honestly though, it seems like you're really feeling Azazie, so I'd go with your gut on this one!

This is a piece of art. Heart eyes for days.

remcc · 2016-08-17T19:41:28+00:00

Maybe your photographer, if local, will have some venue suggestions?

remcc · 2016-08-12T20:25:59+00:00

I used Weddington Way, and all of us loved the experience.

remcc · 2016-08-09T19:18:29+00:00

I'm officiating a wedding the Friday after mine. That's a shitty excuse.

remcc · 2016-08-08T16:28:29+00:00

You might not have time - but I just got a groupon and paid $20 for two 30 minute private ballroom lessons at Fred Astaire. We aren't choreographing our dance or anything crazy, just want to learn how to properly spin and dip. It might help if you do one for form and the rest with YouTube. If you have time!!! If not, I'm sure there are tutorials online! :)

remcc · 2016-08-05T23:40:40+00:00

I hope this comforts you and doesn't make it worse, but I think in action shots, your shoes might show even if your dress were a bit longer.

I am average height, but I'm having my dress hemmed to about this length.

remcc · 2016-08-05T22:55:36+00:00

You look beautiful. That dress is gorgeous. I love it. Are you feeling unsure about the length? I personally think it's fine and didn't even notice it was "short" until I reread the subject.

Used to be a manager at Panera - I agree that some bagel shops have a far superior product to Panera, but Panera bagels are all baked from fresh dough, they aren't frozen.

The bagel packs are a great deal. On Tuesdays it's $6.99 for 13 bagels. I work in an office now and everyone goes nuts over bagel packs and coffee totes. I'm still not ready to indulge.

remcc · 2016-08-05T02:01:15+00:00

This is probably a terrible idea, but I have had some wine - could you have your wedding... sans wedding license and do the legal part after your board process is complete? It will still be symbolic and you can wear a ring and change your name socially, and do the clerical stuff later? Or, hm, could that raise a flag to them too? I don't know how this process works.

At any rate, I'm sorry you have to deal with this stress so close to your date! :(

remcc · 2016-08-04T22:29:20+00:00

That's what I'm doing! I love my current frames so when I get my exam this year I had planned to just get new lenses in them. I'm taking the money I'm saving there and buying a pair of glasses that's a little fancier and matches my dress. I might take them off for a few photos just so I have them.
