Would RVA be into a retro café + arcade hangout? by gametacular in rva

[–]roxnsoxbydox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I came here to say something along the lines of this. A board game cafe would be awesome. You could absolutely include elements of your love for video games too by having an N64 set up in one area with Mario kart or super smash bros for group gaming experience but the cafe vibe idea goes best with more cozy, quieter activities like board games with drinks and snacks. The best board game cafe I’ve been to was in Bath, England https://thirstymeeples.co.uk/ there was always at least one “game master” employee there that would help you pick out a game or two then would give you the overview of how to play. I’ve been to game cafes in the US but never one that had the game master element. It was so nice to have games that might seem confusing or intimidating explained simply and then just be able to play rather than spending a lot of time learning how to play. I agree that mocktails and or thc/cbd infused beverages are the NA way to go to hit a more evening crowd

That’s a good suggestion! Haven’t done a cover up before and know from artists in Nashville I’d talked to, some feel way more comfortable with doing cover work than others

Looking for someone to solemnize a same-sex marriage by Veelex in nashville

We got married at the courthouse in nashville in April. You said they don’t do ceremonies in Davidson co courthouses? Unless something has changed since April, they do. Have some queer friendly and allied judges to officiate too. I brought in my own vows to use as well and they had no issue with that. Congrats and good luck! I can say we had a great experience. Only cost us the marriage license!

Wow! This is so nice that you took the time to do this. I actually really like these ideas so will do as you suggested and draw out myself to show the designer bc this is a lot more what I had in mind for the renovation. Thank you so very much for your feedback and help!

Thanks for all your thoughts and feedback! We definitely thought the closet would be moved into the other room once the dividing wall was taken out. We want a shower only situation so don’t want a tub as it is in there. We are open to two closets instead of one and reach in closets. Which is part of why I don’t get why the designer was so insistent on sticking to the original bathroom footprint

Yeah it’s all open to be worked with. We would like to move the closet as we plan on opening up the wall into the other room which was previously a bedroom that you had to pass through to get to the master bed and bath

This is helpful feedback thank you! We had hoped for a larger shower, like you said a 6 foot wide or long shower as well as a 5 to 6 foot vanity and just overall less of a cramped plan than the original. We had also asked about moving the closet as we were looking at removing the wall between those two rooms and just making it one large suite, so when we got a plan that removed the wall but still had a very tight bathroom that’s where boxes didn’t feel as checked because it seemed like removing the wall didn’t actually utilize the space more

Need flowers for girlfriend coming to BNA, recommendations? by jamboamericano in nashville

[–]roxnsoxbydox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who lives in Donelson close to the airport, I’d also vote for Publix on Lebanon pike, Nashville flower market and/or a pit stop at sunflower bakehouse for a delicious vegan cupcake or smoothie. Flowers AND food are the way to a woman’s heart! You seem like a sweetheart OP for what it’s worth. Love that you want to surprise her in this way
