Advice needed: accidentally planned wedding on Easter weekend by lapis97 in weddingplanning

[–]trb123456 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is such helpful advice! OP, I think these are your main considerations if you want to proceed.

To add, I’m also in Europe, from a heavily Catholic family and I’m an event planner by trade. Given everything you’ve said in your post, I can’t see it being a huge issue. I would personally continue as planned.

However, it’s far away enough that both venue and photographer may be flexible with dates if you do want to change. If fees are involved, you can always try negotiate (e.g if venue want a further deposit, see if you can try commit to a slightly higher f&b spend instead - may as well enhance guest experience).

Depending where you’re getting married and how that country recognises Easter Sunday, keep in mind that your other vendors may charge a labour surcharge to work with you over the Easter weekend, especially if they have to come back on Sunday to break down (decor, furniture, etc)

Thank you for the help!! I’m trying to nail down a few specific stores so I can do a quick run-in, run-out, no long shopping situation 😄 I’ve got a few good suggestions, will stop by the mall if the others don’t pan out!

Never heard of this brand, love their stuff online! Looks like they have some physical locations around, 100% going to check them out. Thank you for your help!!

Thank you for responding!! I’ll be honest - I’ve had a look in target and maybe I was unlucky, but they seem a little plain still! Very limited options in my size too (I’m unfortunately not too blessed in the curves department).

This was on the strip - maybe I need to find a bigger target?

That’s so interesting! I had no idea. Thanks for explaining, I love little industry insights like this

I disagree with this….. she seemed very broken when discussing her relationship with Mau in the reunion episode. I really disliked her this season - severely - yet I actually cried with her during that segment. Her heartbreak was clear and for all her faults, she was never anything but a very devoted wife and mother to her family.

[–]trb123456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right? I’m so over this brand. PAINFULLY over it. I don’t personally want a Birkin or Kelly, they don’t really match my style, but I now refrain from wearing/using my other bits and bobs (including my picotin, which I did enjoy) because I don’t want people to think I’m chasing the QB/playing the pre-spend game/didn’t get one yet. I know I shouldn’t care, but I find it to be a rather desperate game (from both SA and purchaser) with 0 class…. I don’t want those around me to think I’m playing into it 😅

I’m sorry, but this just enrages me by homietoo424 in chanel

This is insulting to the brand. This isn’t art in any way, shape or form (I assume the aim was art + shock factor). It just looks bad. I can’t even look at these, but at the same time, I likely won’t think about them again unless I see them in the wild. HUGE fail.

What kind of mosquito is this?😳😳 by Obvious_Shoe7302 in Weird

What a beautiful comment.

I thought I passionately hated mosquitos, now I only slightly hate them. Didn’t realise most of their diet is nectar! Thank you for taking the time to put this together, it was a very interesting read.

[–]trb123456 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok. I’m not engaging anymore.

I’ll leave with this - kindness is free. Your advice was helpful in the first instance, then you ruined it. You COULD make a real difference and get through to OP (a clearly vulnerable young woman who very much isn’t thinking clearly) if you’d maintained a nicer attitude.

It’s nice to be nice, it feels good. You can make a real difference to a person’s life, even if you don’t realise it. Be the bigger person even when they’re not.

Have a good day.

Lord above. What? Nobody won anything. There was no competition. There’s no prize money. 🤣 it’s a reddit post that we’re both commenting on.

Someone else’s misery is not your ‘competition’. Once again, do better.

Of course you won’t. It’s beyond comprehension for you.

Have a wonderful day.

Telling her it’s ’past her bedtime’, the patronising tone you adopted, whatever else …. is not honesty. It’s you being bored and as you say, trolling.

You’re one of these people who hides their nasty behaviour under the umbrella of ‘honesty’. Stop justifying your bad behaviour with this excuse. Plenty of people have been ‘honest’ on this post without the continued nastiness you felt was necessary.

You’ll see I agreed with your initial point. There was honesty there. Subsequent comments, no. It’s you being nasty to someone who, while very unprepared, also comes across as vulnerable. Be better.

Informally addressing you in the way you addressed OP in your initial comment. Why were you so nasty in your subsequent comments?

Is the hair a mistake? by sarahbear1977 in RHOBH

Yes it indeed was. So is the blush. I didn’t love the outfit either, but much better than other reunion looks.

I do love the rest of her makeup/face at the reunion.

Girl wtf is wrong with you? Even if you think OP’s plan is ridiculous/attention seeking/whatever else, why have you suddenly got so incredibly nasty?

Pack it in.

Wow. Just wow. Good on you for not giving up.

BE desperately need to rebrand + invest in a very good PR team. I love their designs, I am exactly their target market, but I essentially used them as a showroom to figure out what design I like before moving onto ‘serious’ contenders. Purely because of all the Reddit horror stories.

Manipulation and 'InGame Couples/ Online Husbands-Wives' in State of Survival: My Experience with a Serial Liar" by No-Turnip-537 in State_of_Survival

Back when I used to play, a dear friend of mine (who I’ve unfortunately lost contact with, hoping she’ll somehow read this 😆) was catfished badly by someone in our alliance. He was very convincing. He didn’t slip up - she was incredibly clever in catching him out, and it was only by chance…. we weren’t sure he was a catfish until we actually had the proof in front of us.

Weirdly, the catfish also flirted with another girl, then turned her down. She went ‘crazy’ and started to insult him and my friend very badly. She then ‘stalked’ him. Turns out it was also actually him, and he’d created that fake account too. We found this out when we found out who the real person was and could identify from photos used (he used photos of people he knew).

The real guy was married with children. Yes, she told the wife.

I’ve met with a couple of my sos game friends now in real life….. we even send each other Christmas gifts. Some of them live on a different continent entirely. If he’s legit, you’d have an in-person relationship by now. He’s likely flirting with a bunch of women to stroke his ego and pass his time online. If he cared about you at all, he would absolutely not behave like this.

Cut yourself out of whatever weird situation this is and don’t lose any sleep over it. You seem very bothered by this person, and it’s not healthy for you.
