How many cookies should I pack into those little favor boxes for the guests?
And roughly how much food do we actually need to have on hand to feed everyone at a get-together?

Saw some packaging at Target today, but I didn't even bother checking the price tag. 🤷

Anyone know anything about the Blondie salon over in the Greenbelt area? In Indianapolis 😉

cosmicnomad22 said:Sandal, wedding cake, boutonnieres, confetti (if that's your style, obviously), home decor, rings, and lingerie. 😁

So... what? 🤣

So, I spent all day hitting up shops everywhere, and honestly? Total bust. Not a single pair of white sandals in sight that didn't look absolutely hideous. Seriously, where are they hiding? 🙂

I’m gonna breeze through the cake prep just like I did with the cookies. Already scoped out some reveres today... and honestly? The rings are basically done.

So, lingerie... hmm. I'm on the hunt for a bra that’s completely backless. Any tips? Recommendations? Anyone got the inside scoop?

So, if anyone’s actually been down to the mall or checked out those vendor stalls lately... what are we looking at for prices? I'm talking balloons, bows, patches, and those rolls of organza. Anyone got the scoop on the damage to my wallet?

As for Anne Coric, I heard the same thing about Victoria... you really have to make sure you coordinate so she shows up personally.

Mary Simosic😉

So, the venue for July 20th is officially locked in... that's a win. It includes the chairs and the cake too, so one less headache for me.🤣

Photo: We're heading out this week to put down the deposit; everything is pretty much set.🤣

The Band and the flowers are on my list for this week as well... plus the wedding dress and the invites. Probably the hair and makeup too, if I can actually find someone who isn't booked solid!🙂

What's left? Honestly, I've totally lost track. I haven't written anything down yet, so I really need to start making a list.😁

George Bishop72 said:What have you been looking at so far?
Maybe you could drop a few suggestions for the rest of us while you're at it 😍

Studio Chic, Mary

I’ll probably check in with Anne Coric since getting hold of Deer's number is basically impossible!

Can I get that famous Jane’s number via DM? 🙂

I swear this makeup situation is driving me insane 🙂 is it even possible for everyone to be booked up on my one day off? 🙂🙂🙂

Apple Studio is totally booked up for the year—they’ve barely got anything left before the holidays.

Should I look somewhere else for my makeup?
I'm not sweating the hair situation, I'll figure that out later, but honestly, finding a good makeup artist is killing me. 🙂

Hey ladies,
who's the go-to at Studio 54 if I need my hair and makeup done?🙂

Anyone in the Indianapolis area know someone who rents out tents?
I’m looking for something like this...
And what kind of damage am I looking at price-wise?

You might want to take a look at this... Wedding packages plus the Crystal banquet halls (there are two in Indianapolis and two in Belišće)...
As for suits for your partner—check out Harkanje over at the local market (they run about 500-$200).. I suppose I could send you photos of two different suits if you think that would be helpful..

I hope this helps you out even just a little bit 🙂

And "tiny bit" doesn't even cover it
Thanks 😉
🤣

Hey there 🙂

So, my wedding is happening this summer—had to push it back a year, which was a total headache—so now I’m diving headfirst into all the planning.
I need the works: venues, bands, photographers, hair, makeup... even a suit (seriously, where can I find a good one around here?). Oh, and don't forget invitations, boutonnieres, flowers, and dessert!

I'm based out of Indianapolis, but honestly, I'm down to travel a bit if it means finding the perfect stuff. 😉

Seriously though, any and all advice is welcome! 🙂🤣

Plus, trying to pull the whole thing off yourself is going to cost you a massive amount of sanity... so, if you ask me, calculating everything on a per-guest basis is a much better way to go. 😉 Just my two cents ☕

Forget the logistics for a second—the real issue is that people are practically glued to each other! There's zero room left to actually dance.

rustybadger9 said:Hey everyone!
So, I’m currently staring at a blank page trying to actually "set a budget" for this wedding we're planning...
Is there any kind soul out there who can give me a little "guidance" on how to tackle all this?
Here’s the deal... we’ve already got a nice little fire station hall booked up in a small town in rural America.
But now I need EVERYTHING—from the tiny details down to the suits—and honestly, where’s the best place to shop for all this stuff around the Midwest?
1. How much food should we even get? Like, if we’re doing lamb and pork, what’s the right ratio for about 200 people? And what kind of ballpark figure am I looking at just for the catering side of things?
2. Drinks and booze
3. Videographers and photographers
4. Decorations (for the hall, the church, ribbons on the cars, etc.)
5. The band (please, send your best recommendations!) and obviously, they'll need to include those traditional musicians to play for the bride during the entrance
6. Invitations
7. Suits and the wedding dress
8. And basically anything else I haven't thought of yet... and PLEASE, let me know roughly how much certain items cost. THANKS! =)

ughhhhh this is so bad, seriously 👎

Btw does anyone know anything about that Bohemian group?🙄

Ugh, same here. I need the tea. 🤣
