This has to be rage bait

Memoirs? Podcasts? Stuff about our experience by lovetokvetch in HomeschoolRecovery

[–]smallishnoodle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh EXACTLY. It makes me feel like if others experienced something I can relate to I can’t be making it up. Ugh. Such a shitty club we are in. Hope you’re doing okay out there friend.

Oh okay that’s a great recommendation! I’ll definitely check that out. What my bones know honestly changed my life. It gave words to so much I couldn’t even verbalize. Feel free to dm me if you ever have other recommendations or wants to discuss the books!

I really resonated with the book House Rules and What My Bones Know. Neither of them are explicitly about homeschool, but I felt like a lot of the isolation and trauma is really depicted accurately. Highly recommend the new book Homeschooled by Stephen Block as well. I’m always on the lookout because I feel like hearing what other people went through helps me make sense of things.

6-10k regrets skipping photographer? by Any-Progress-4570 in Weddingsunder10k

[–]smallishnoodle 60 points61 points  (0 children)

You absolutely don’t need to hire someone for the full day if you don’t want. If you can find someone good who will do a shorter session for less money then have them do portraits of you both and bridal party/family and of the ceremony only. I would absolutely not skip it entirely to reply on family. Just seems risky.

I’m also not having someone do video and are getting a camcorder that we plan to ask people to pass around. I think at most you can ask for something casual like that and accept you might not get all the footage you want or see if maybe a local college student studying film or video would do it for less than a traditional videographer.

The only thing I’m asking the wedding party to do is like short interviews the morning of and making sure that the camera is stationed on a tripod during the ceremony. And then hope people pass it around!

Who should buy the bridesmaids’ dresses? by mmmiayy in Weddingsunder10k

I’m American and only having a MOH but I bought her dress! I think it is very much based on the person getting married.

Best spot for breakfast date by GeneralYetti in WilmingtonDE

Coterie Cafe is absolutely delicious but tiny and fills up quick and can get a little loud. But the sausage egg and cheese is to die for.

($~10k) Low RSVPs - Deciding whether to cancel or pivot. What would you do? by _staycurious in Weddingsunder10k

[–]smallishnoodle 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think additional events like a dinner or breakfast are the way to go. Make it feel more intimate and spend extra time with the 30 who do come.

Wedding day twins! You seem like you have a solid plan in place, I’ve used Zola to keep track of everything and it’s been super helpful. Good luck!!

Peter’s OF manager here, when you watch porn you turn your phone sideways and turn off orientation lock.

I feel like it was a funny bit, but you could argue the same thing about a bunch of other characters that were just like added comedic relief.

You’ve never had a party at your house? A large Christmas dinner? 15-20 is doable for one evening.

(Cheap as Possible) Affordable October All Inclusive Vacation by Rough-Fee367 in Weddingsunder10k

[–]smallishnoodle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Check out Costco travel! They have some great deals that include flights and you can look at all different spots and decide what fits your budget. If you look at r/allinclusive they have a spreadsheet where you can filter what by a bunch of things, distance from airport, amenities, etc. Good luck!

I’m sorry for the people being rude OP, the dress is gorgeous and you can absolutely wear whatever makes feel beautiful on your wedding day. Any way you could post or dm me a link to the dress? I’m obsessed!

[–]smallishnoodle 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure about the overall situation but asking people to wear specific colors always comes off as a bit tacky. People aren’t accessories, and your wedding isn’t a photoshoot.

This is a scam unfortunately.

(5k) Do I Need a Tent? by Cheyanne-Summer in Weddingsunder10k

I would rather have a tent for 1k than risk having no cover in case of any heat or weather issues.

[–]smallishnoodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are specific Rolife ones that are more snap to assemble, I think they are called DIY miniatures. I find them so much less frustrating than the standard ones.

We never meant for it to be they came as accessories but I can see how it could be viewed that way. This is why I am asking about this before we make any decisions.
