851. Re: Pressing dress underlining?

     

     Reply by eso16208 · September 2010 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› Florida-Central Florida

     My underlining was really wrinkled up too. I'm letting the dress "fall" instead of keeping it shoved in the bag. Try working the bunches out with your hands. The problem with trying to press the underlining is that the netting is full of holes, so any steam goes right through it. If you try to press it ourself, put it…

     I know that this thread is dead now, but I wanted to add that I also agree that Lindsay Jacobellis was dq'ed when she clipped the gate marker. She didn't just give up because she knew she wasn't going to qualify. Do you really think that she'd just throw in the towel after making that stupid asss hotdogging mistake in…

     My Macy's registry ticked me off, because the dinnerwar I wanted to register for is unable to "Add to Registry"....really? I wish I knew that ahead of time and maybe I wouldn't have registered at Macy's and just stuck to my BBB registry. I have to say, I do prefer Macy's bedding and bath towels over BBB - so it's not a…

     I don't think we put anything too unusual. I was really excited for our china and bedding. I can't think of anything I wish we had added, except we did forgot kitchen wash cloths. But, that's it! Oh wait, a little PSA: Martha Stewart kitchen towels suck!!! After one wash they pilled and looked terrible. I hate them ;-(

     I don't mind a shower. I'm an introverted recluse, so spending time with people isn't my favourite thing, but I don't mind a shower. We had one for my 21 year old cousin, fresh out of college, and it was delightful. They registered, so it was easy. I threw one for my sister (this was before I knew you weren't supposed to…

     As someone who has worked in the wedding industry (as a ceremony musician) and a recent bride, I'd say it CAN be worth it, if you have the right person. Many DoC's seem to be 20-something women who went to a few weddings and wanted to keep going to more. I've encountered many disorganized, stressed out women and end up…

     You can't demand a present. I do think it's hella rude to not give a gift. True, presents are never required, but it is a social obligation to give something when you attend an event that is considered to be a gift-giving occasion. A wedding falls into that category. (Virtually) No one is so poor that they can't afford a…

     we both have lived on our own, but moved back in with our parents - and sold all the furniture. We still have plates, towels, etc, but no couch, dining table, etc. We're going to register for some, and when people see them, they'll give us money toward buying a new couch. We don't really need all the little stuff because…

     My friend got married and ran into the same problem. They sent a poem with the invitation along the lines of "we have kitchen linens and bath towels, etc...." They were really creative with it and just asked that people bring cards/money. It wasn't rude at all and they had a big glass bowl for people to drop in the cards.…

     I suggest a small registry to prevent getting things you really don't want - and it will also make it easier to return things. Register for things that can replace things you already have. Particularly if things are shipped directly to you, they'll be prepacked, ready to be moved and protected against the jostling of the…
