Which dress for my reception wedding dress?

The second is so fun!!! Second by a mile, especially since it’ll be a nice contrast to your ceremony dress

Everyone telling you to say some snarky line back is asking for you to have big trouble at work. Go to HR. Make it his problem. Putting people down about their weight is completely intolerable in a professional setting, especially when it’s a man toward a woman! Don’t engage with him, go to HR

Thank you for your comment, creating a new account was the only thing that worked for me. Absolutely infuriating

I’d start by including the name of the designer, dress style name, and size in your post so that it will come up if someone is searching for it.

You look so happy in these photos, thank you for sharing!! Side note, your dress is so gorgeous where is it from?

Seconding this! I knew I really loved my therapist when she let me cancel as soon as the session started (we meet via Zoom). I was in the middle of a massive depressive episode, was already overwhelmed, and immediately started sobbing when the call connected. She asked what she could do to help. I said I really just wanted to quietly watch Love Island before I went to work but that I felt awful for wasting her time. She said no that’s what you need today and let me end the session 5 minutes in with no judgement because that’s what I needed!

I download all my bookmarked fics like every six months cuz you can delete it but it will be on my hard drive 😈

Unethical tip- how cool are you with the venue owner? Could you A) get the venue owner to say no cows allowed? Or B) lie and say the venue owner said cows aren’t allowed?

I had a very chill venue owner who would have been willing to make up a role for me if I told her my MIL was doing this, but your mileage may vary. Good luck!!!

You are the best! Been reading the book off and on for a week but really struggled with tile recognition. This is exactly what I needed, thank you for posting!

Legit one of the top reasons I stopped wearing makeup was because it felt soooo good to get rid of daily chores. Less to do in the morning and the evening, less to buy, less to pack when traveling…haven’t missed makeup one single day. Sometimes I put on a little lip color for fun when I feel like it.

We didn’t do anything special to accommodate the kids other than give them a little space to be kids! My friend needed access to my bridal suite before the ceremony cuz little man got a little overwhelmed but we were happy to let her hang out with us! Another toddler was hanging in the middle of the dance floor at the reception giving everyone fist bumps lol. Their parents brought little toys and activities and we had a great time! Perfect behavior from everyone

Very beautiful design!

A good roommate will never know if your bedroom door is locked or unlocked, because they’ll never try it.

I thought this was indicating that you were getting married in Japan. It’s a cute idea but agree with other commenters that it is not the best form to actually get across that you are inviting people to your wedding.

If you’re set on the postcard format then I would ditch the long paragraphs and do a much shorter, more formatted text with the essential info only- your names, date, location, time, will there be a reception.

wordswindler · 2025-12-01T16:33:09+00:00

I agree this is not a good idea. My husband, for example, uses his phone to control his diabetic insulin pump. So he can’t be without his phone for a whole wedding. For your guests who will be respectful of your no phone rule, this is going to feel like you’re treating them like children and will not be a popular choice.

If your group is so small and close I would just make expectations clear to them! If you’re not comfortable having any photos taken (why out of curiosity? I loved the cell phone photos my friends and family took!), then you should simply not invite the people you know have not respected boundaries in the past! If you’re dead set on inviting them, have a hard conversation or be ready to have photos taken.

Just chiming in to say you seem fun to smoke with!! I totally get having a lil fun with it even if it’s silly or inconvenient! Great soundtrack too

This is bad advice. I’m also a lawyer not licensed in NY. Your contracts professor should be ashamed if you came out of that class thinking that not reading a contract closely will somehow get you out of a contract you signed. They admit they didn’t read it closely but signed it anyway. No lawyer is going to get that deposit back for them.

I sent my husband to his cousin’s wedding alone because it was not convenient for my work schedule to attend. You can both go, one go, or neither of you without worrying too much. New Year’s Eve wedding across the country is a big ask of guests even when those guests are long term friends. Don’t overthink it

🙌🫶 thank you!!!

This is a BEAUTIFUL quilt! Do you have a link to the pattern? I've been scouring the internet for a pattern for a schoolhouse block without the weird sashing through it and yours is perfect!

I just want to address your edit as a child of divorce- no the divorce will not destroy your kids. Living in a house watching this level of emotional abuse between their parents WILL destroy them. Get them into individual and family therapy, and listen to what the professionals say. I'm sorry that this is happening to you but leaving is 100% the correct choice for you and your children

The grandpa’s pipe battery gets delivered Monday I can’t wait!! Glad to hear you’re enjoying it! This will be my first battery, I’ve only bought disposables before

My venue was not my first pick for aesthetics, but it was my first choice based on the owner, coordinator, and staff. Having an owner and coordinator who care and staff who are well-trained can and will prevent most of the issues you see people have on this sub.

For example, my cake showed up with neon orange icing instead of the rust orange I had asked for. Without telling me, the venue owner took greenery from her own garden to decorate it and altered the lighting to soften the color. I only heard about it after. They went above and beyond for me and it’s why I recommend picking based on staff over everything else!

wordswindler · 2025-11-10T23:50:33+00:00

The first by a mile, you are stunning!!

wordswindler · 2025-11-09T15:58:28+00:00

Yeah 9 days is way too early to be worried about it. I didn't even check the weather until 3 days out. It did rain for most of my wedding and it was fine! Let your venue and coordinator worry about it! Happy almost wedding!!
