941. Re: How do I talk to him about proposing?

     Why don't you propose to him? I'm not just kidding around, I mean that seriously. What's stopping you? Also, I really, really don't think it's pressuring to check in with a guy you're in a LTR with to see if you're on the same page as far as marriage/kids/etc timelines. And I strongly disagree with PP's first sentence (and…

This year I got a book about…

943. Gratuity Question (Caterer)

     

     Discussion by jpvaca · September 2009 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Etiquette Forum

     Our caterer owns his own business and we are paying him for food, service and rentals. Each workers (including him) costs us $150 and he divides it all up, so we tip him for the entire thing. The gratuity is at our discretion...but do I base the tip on...a.) just the food ($1,440)b.) food and service ($1732)c.) food,…

     Until the 1950s, tuxedos were not considered proper to wear to weddings at all. It is still not proper to wear them in the daytime. (I don't care what YOU think, those are the rules.) The trend, lately, is for men to wear suits, not tuxedos. Many men prefer to wear a nice suit of their own, rather than a tuxedo that has…

     Retro for me. 1950s-ish. But not every detail--I'm calling it retro-inspired. I hope to be able to rent out the diner in my neighborhood for this. But I haven't asked them yet. I'm waiting until I have a better sense of the time frame. We are in the midst of doing immigration with USCIS to enable Brit FI to live and work…

     Oh, another confession. My church is doing a cooking class next month, and the lady organizing it asked me to design a graphic for us to use in our newsletter, website, etc, so I spent a good chunk of time yesterday making this 1950's style graphic. I sent it to the lady and she says, "well, it's too old-fashioned…

     In my relationship , everything is my husband's - he just lets me use many things that are in the house - laptop he bought , tv , other computer , etc. We have a more 1950's household though - which is what I wanted my whole life anyway. The only thing that he lets me say is "mine" is my toothbrush because germs freak him…
