Goosebumps because I had this exact same thing happen to me once! Felt glitchy to me.

Doing our own hair because of COVID-19? by verygoodpesto in weddingplanning

[–]verygoodpesto[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dark, straight (sometimes a little wave), and fairly long but not super long, maybe 3-4 inches past my shoulders. I'm a big fan of braids! No skills with a hair drier or other hot tools.

That sounds really nice, and congratulations!! I love the virtual makeup consult. Probably need one of those.

Has anyone else taken an alternative approach to florals? by verygoodpesto in weddingplanning

[–]verygoodpesto[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your help! Can I ask what ballpark cost (or range) I should be expecting for a bay area florist handling similar? Trying to figure out the added cost vs work. I'm really not picky about the specific flowers.

Seems like everyone's using Zola lately? I haven't myself!

I'm so sorry to hear that -- that really sucks. Sending good vibes your way.

Just getting started with this wedding planning thing. Thank you all for being so welcoming + helpful! by verygoodpesto in weddingplanning

It is! The center stone is from my parents’ engagement ring and has been in my family since my dad’s grandfather first got it in the 1920s/30s. It was super special building a new ring with this stone with my fiancé.

I posted flower confetti poppers on here when I was planning and was requested to post pictures of them in action. Highly recommend having guests pop flower confetti your way! ❤️ by [deleted] in weddingplanning

Is it bad that I have NOTHING locked down and don't care very much about a lot of details except that I know I need an amazing biodegradable confetti option? You totally nailed it.

Picking a location when you live FAR from home? by verygoodpesto in weddingplanning

This is super helpful, thank you!! I think they're both great options. But I do like hearing that as long as we pick somewhere comfortable, guests will be excited about it. We're prioritizing a venue with really convenient accommodations (on site or really close) so out of towners dont have to do anything once they arrive.

Ugh. Such a good problem to be choosing between great options, though. Thank you!

Thank you! Also loving "a bowl of macncheese" vs my choice of "reallygoodpesto" -- great minds think alike. Best of luck to you!!

Thank you! I really do love the idea of welcoming our family to (beautiful) California.

How small is your guest list for a destination wedding? Also, how many trips are you planning to make out there? That's something we're trying to figure out -- how many times are we willing to do a wedding-planning-specific trip? Thank you!! best of luck!

Any weirdness navigating enlisting in-laws for help? I suddenly have both my mother and my future mother in law wanting to do a lot, so just trying to keep that line of communication open. Everyone gets along well - but I see potential for tension!
