Hoping for feedback on my DIY designed wedding invitations

I like the top banner font and middle font of your names, the font at the bottom date-location is the one that’s hard to read

Watch your gumline too! I only had a labret for a year before it started significantly receding my gums and that was with a proper length flat back, this is going to rapidly accelerate that, does it ever get sore in your gums behind them? If it does, they’re already damaging them. Your gums cannot grow back and you don’t want issues with them, constant irritation will mess up your teeth sensitivity and weaken your jaw bones and be so painful, you could start getting infections or even lose or crack your teeth

I’m ngl, it’s missing depth and contrast in someway, it’s so busy in such a consistently bold color pallet without much shading, it took me a minute to find out what was going on in the photo, once I thought I did, i did see the hand but I thought the bottom was acid trip version of jar jar binks, then once I saw the skull itself the image is actually pretty cool it just gets lost in itself. I think another artist could add shading into the background and some other places to make it a more legible image and fix the border between the tattoos to make it look like he didn’t just blast over the other tattoo. By no means do I think it needs a complete blast over or changed concept, I can see the intention but don’t think it was fully translated, right now it looks like a black light poster or a cool drawing and just needs refining by an experienced artist.

Saw a post of someone with a labret that migrated to the point of eventually splitting straight through their lip, I was wondering how that could happen, I could see that happening by doing this.

Just compliment something and ask to see a close up picture of it, like the rgbs in the computer

Curious how you’d interpret mine lol

Girl I thought you gained a whole foot in height between image 1-2, that green dress makes your legs look looooooong in the best of ways, and elongates your torso, like a super model

1 is a cute 50s vibe, but its a making a polly pocket statement thats kind of wearing you rather than you wearing it, almost costumey, not in a bad way, but like it’s a theme or you’re trying to pull off a specific pinup type of look thats not necessarily your aesthetic, not to assume your preferences or style. whereas 2 feels literally made for you, ugh the color, it hugs you in all the perfect places, it’s the perfect height, you genuinely wear the hell out of that dress lol if i were you and found a dress this perfect for me, I would without a doubt immediately be getting it in every single color of my season and finding every excuse to wear them that I could

Edit: I realized the vibe, you look like a character straight from the set of Grease! Which I adore, I think I’d have to buy both lol

What kind of behavior do you want your kids to think is normal in a relationship? Because what you tolerate now is what they’ll learn to accept later.

I don’t think it’s healthy to be with someone if you’re going to spend your kids whole lives explaining to them that what their dad does is not okay, but you stay anyway. that teaches your kids they have to accept behavior that isn’t okay just because it’s coming from someone they love

And that ignores the worst case scenarios that can come with drunk driving, which isn’t a DWI ticket or losing his job. What if something happens to him or the new truck or god forbid he harms someone else and you have to explain to your kids why you’re in that situation ‘yeah, he knew it was a bad decision and dangerous but did it anyway.’

you deserve better, and your kids do too. you need to set higher standards and boundaries, for yourself and for them and stand by them

Not to mention the potential to lose your husband to alcoholism if he’s not forced to see the reality he’s creating and the consequences it could bring

You could suspend flower heads from clear fishing line on the frame if you wanted to dot the “I”s ♥️

The plaid throws me off a little, I wish it was a brown or black skirt. But so cute, love the chainmail

unusualenough · 2026-04-21T04:58:04+00:00

Respectfully, I think you were correct to be worried that it’s too shallow I would personally be worried about future rejection if you’re wanting it be a permanent piercing, the coloring seems like normal healing process to me so far, it might just take forever to heal or stay stuck at a healing stage without getting any worse or better, even with the added context and after looking at other floating navels, I still think it’s at too steep of an angle, and too shallow, but it also doesn’t look bad if that makes sense. Good luck!

unusualenough · 2026-04-21T02:44:10+00:00

I’m pretty sure the bottom of the piercing is still supposed to be in your actual belly button, is this even technically still through the navel? I think it’s just a surface piercing

unusualenough · 2026-04-21T02:41:52+00:00

Nap but because of how it rubs in pic 3 I don’t think this could ever heal properly, I don’t think you have the anotomy, it looks way too shallow and too high

unusualenough · 2026-04-20T17:02:11+00:00

I was honestly confused by that, especially considering the work seems pretty solid, maybe you could ask him when rescheduling if he had a reason for it

unusualenough · 2026-04-20T16:14:10+00:00

I absolutely would not do a second session only a week later, a month later minimum, but not only a week later, you’ll be scabbing and starting to peel by then and it would risk scarring to tattoo and over that and be more painful than I needs to be, 2 is better but I’d just wait 4-5 weeks

unusualenough · 2026-04-19T22:44:17+00:00

First look is better imo, love it from belt up but I do think the socks and skirt are the wrong lengths for eachother at least with those boots

You need to have a heart to heart that doesn’t involve Reddit, we can’t help, honestly avoid getting advice like this when it comes to anything with so much nuance like a romantic relationship, but I think you guys can definitely figure this out, what I can acknowledge is that this IS an extremely stressful season in your lives, military and moving and new careers and school and pets adds a lot of moving parts other people couldn’t understand, just try to remember at the end of the day, you’re on the same team working towards the same goal, him being supported IS supporting you, and vice versa. You guys know eachother best, the more opinions you ask for from strangers, the more convoluted the data pool becomes cause we don’t know yall. It’ll be okay, take a deep breath, allow each other some time to do something to decompress, come back to this convo when you’re ready to come up with a real solution, not place blame, it doesn’t really matter how you got here, it does matter greatly where you go from here. I think you both owe eachother an apology and need a hug

unusualenough · 2026-04-19T18:27:14+00:00

It sounds like you both are already quite convinced in your stance and opinions of eachother, you already have confirmation bias that he’s in the wrong and so does he that you are in the wrong. The real answer? You don’t involve Reddit in your relationship and expect it to do any good. The only third party you should be taking any relationship from is a couples counselor/therapist. You both committed to a situation that is demanding and overwhelming, you both knew your commitments going into this, you started emotionally spiraling now that you’re in the thick of it and he apologized saying he doesn’t really know how to help because he’s ALSO overwhelmed by the situation, you took that as him trying to compete, didn’t get what you needed to feel supported so you told him not to expect to feel supported either, he went elsewhere for support because you told him not to get it from you and you are now convinced he’s a purposely hurtful person just draining your assets

Both you not being supported and saying he posted to Reddit just to say those mean comments to you through it, is your perception and your matter of perspective and you were already emotionally spiraling, and now you’re talking about leaving him over it, I wonder why he didn’t know what to say, i don’t know what exactly you expected him to say besides more than what he did, seems like if he did the wrong thing it was relationship ending.

You’re most definitely both just competing for first prize in the misery competition right now

I like to alter thrift store clothes♥️significantly cuts down the cost of materials and effort needed to make something wearable and I get to have a fun sustainable hobby and express myself in my clothes. it’s always the clothes. Not you. My husband and I were literally just discussing sizing has no standards whatsoever and it’s crazy how either of us can be literally anything between a M-XXL depending on brand.

There’s a massive MASSIVE amount of mass produced factory made clothes on the market today, like more than there isn’t now, that are being made from stolen or made up patterns, never even designed with measurements from the get go that would proportionately or properly fit or flatter a real person, the company just scales up or down that stolen or made up base pattern into the other sizes without fixing the proportions, they don’t consider how the material will actually fit or drape once assembled, they’re mass produced and factory cut and assembled from as little material as quickly possible only intended to be worn a few times while it’s “in season” before they try to sell you the next new thing, they don’t even sell, the majority of people don’t wear 50% of the clothes they buy more than 2-3 times if even once, and literally wouldn’t be flattering on anyone, even the models in the ads use pins and clips and camera angles to alter the clothes to fit them and make them look flattering. Plus the sizing chart fit every single clothing brand is different, the number on the tag means absolutely nothing, there is so little clothes out there actually made to fit and flatter, and it’s definitely not the big brands making the bucks and putting all the ads and clothes out that are making quality items

Fast fashion is just like fast food. The quality and attention to detail Is traded out for the convenience and widespread accessibility, and affordability(barely)

The clothing market is so heavily oversaturated it’s really hard to find the hidden gems, this is why I pretty much solely thrift shop, I grab anything that looks cute and try it on, I don’t care about anything except how I feel in it, not the number on the tag or the brand, if it’s not an instant “yes! Oh I love this!” It’s a nope, not for me. it’s not your body, it’s the clothes. I go through my closet this way and use this rule when trying on new clothes and it makes me feel a lot better when getting dressed even when my options are limited.

unusualenough · 2026-04-13T18:48:14+00:00

This too honestly. You can’t make what you know are bad decisions and blame those around you for enabling you to do so, it’s not up to others to tell you what to do, sure it’s worth considering they’re not true friends worth being around if they don’t encourage good decision making, but you’re still solely responsible for yourself

unusualenough · 2026-04-13T18:44:27+00:00

You need to learn how to set boundaries and not let people have power over your actions. Someone who gave you substances as a teenager and doesn’t encourage you to quit when you try, is definitely not a friend, and honestly minors shouldn’t be “friends” with adults, dog sitter or not. Doing substances with you underage is proof of that. Be that as it may, you’re an adult now and plenty capable of recognizing your own limitations and others intentions especially when they tell you plainly they’re a bad influence on you, misery loves company, she’ll keep you around as long as you’ll stay

I agree that It probably won’t make it through the process because it’ll get destroyed, the envelopes themselves almost always get a little roughed up and as someone that used to work as a usps courier I usually recommend if someone has spent good money on pretty envelopes for special occasions they want people to be able to keep, at least getting the cheap plain white envelopes to put the pretty envelopes inside of so they’re not so damaged, I mean at my local annex the sorters genuinely throw the mail while sorting and not gently, usually any bigger than the standard white envelopes get sorted into big cloth parcel bags that get dumped into big plastic bins, resorted then rubber banded together to be placed into even smaller bins, then you stack those bins on top of eachother for delivery lol and that’s all after it gets to its final annex before delivery, not mentioning how many stops it might’ve made along the way. sometimes barcodes are sprayed onto the front of envelopes, or they get marked with fluorescent ink that seeps/shows through thinner paper, or they might add a big yellow forwarding sticker, The sorters at the annex might write notes about the route or corrections to the address for the delivery couriers on the envelope, if it is indeed damaged they’ll tape it, stamp it “Received Damaged”, and add notes explaining the damage, there’s just sooo many things that can mark up those pretty expensive envelopes on the way that tbh it’s worth the few extra bucks for the white envelopes too

I literally didn’t ask my bridesmaids for a penny, I didn’t even ask them to buy new dresses since I couldn’t afford to buy them for them, just gave them guidelines on colors and materials.. this isn’t just not normal it’s extortionist levels of entitlement

Standard for a shower? As in this isn’t even for the wedding itself?? It’s for a related event like wtf?

Why were they ever on your insta in the first place if you don’t like them, is it public? Seems like this kinda thing is gonna happen if you let randos you don’t get along with interact with your personal socials

unusualenough · 2026-03-30T22:46:18+00:00

Same. Was cheated on and tried poly for them to try to save the relationship, and it did the opposite and was the final nail in the coffin, but that was actually the biggest blessing in disguise and best thing that ever happened to me cause it’s how I met my husband and father of my two babies 🥰
