191. Re: A Little Different Honeymoon Resgistry - Thoughts?

     

     Reply by APDSS22 · June 2014 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Etiquette Forum

     A traditional registry is more "if you want to buy us a set of towels, here are the colors and fluffiness that we prefer" a honeymoon registry is more "we want cash in various amounts." If someone gives you a check for $40 you can put that toward a zipline tour or a couples massage or swimming with the dolphins and you…

192. Re: Board games/card games - Yay or nay?

     

     Reply by badbnagdway · January 2015 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Registry and Gift Forum

     I really liked buying couples things like board games when I was in grad school and didn't have a lot to spend on a wedding gift (usually I was also poor enough that I couldn't attend the wedding but really wanted to send something to the couple). From experience it's a lot more satisfying to send a board game/card game…

     @short+sassy the vanity is really b/c I have no storage space in my bathroom at all. The sink is one of those fancy modern bowl sinks that sits on a small counter, all glass. It's beautiful, but not particularly storage friendly. Basically like this: Then, b/c of the way the bathroom is built with two doors, bathtub,…

     I am not Southern, and I was raised with the same belief -- giving cash for a wedding shows that you didn't want to or were too lazy to buy them a heart-felt gift. DH is firmly in the camp of 'let's give cash,' and I'm solidly in the camp of 'let's buy them something off their registry or find something we think they'd…

     I called Hawaiian and was told that it has to be in a carry on/overhead or checked baggage because the closet space has now been renovated to the comfort class seats airlines are now offering. Upon research you can buy travel packing boxes and supplies-essentially a ton of white tissue paper and a box with a handle; or you…

     We've been living together for several years, so we added some sheet sets and towels, as we needed to upgrade. Plus, I wanted stuff that matched our current space. Our sheets and towels were a hodgepodge left over from our grad school days. We also registered for silverware, as we had a few sets all mixed together. Some…

     We love it! The silver lining for us in the whole pandemic has been the timing of the house. We moved in the weekend before we got WFH orders and things started getting cancelled, so we had lots of free time for unpacking and arranging everything. I'm really glad that we have a bit more space and now both have dedicated…

198. Creating Vows for Best Friends Wedding

     

     Discussion by Ladeda123 · June 2018 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Vows & Ceremony Discussions

     Hi. I am creating and officiating the ceremony for my friends wedding and I know they would like personalized vows but are not comfortable creating them themselves. I was planning to ask them a bunch of questions individually in hopes to format their answers into personal vows for them. Any good questions to ask to help…

     I'm also wondering whether you can wrap your legs in something cool that's not going to dress wet, but I haven't thought of a good idea yet. I keep seeing those snap towels on TV, but obviously they retain a certain amount of water. Otherwise, something that's really common in some parts of Asia (I can't remember whether…

     Ally, I am TERRIFIED of spiders, too! I have a somewhat funny, super long spider story (which wasn't funny at the time). I came home from school one while living alone in college. There was a spider dangling from my only light in the middle of my studio apartment. It was just hanging there . . . and it was TINY. I mean,…
