I did a little digging on Google and found a bakery over at Ana's... so I'm going to keep looking around to see what else is out there. If there are any locals from Imotski in here, could you let me know where the best spot is to pick up a cake in town?

Well, I'm an Imotski local myself, but honestly? As far as wedding cakes go, it feels like Bob's is the only game in town.🤷 I'll poke around a bit and see what else I can find, then I'll get back to you... I'm not totally sure how things work with delivery coming over from Hercegovina, but you could try messaging Smiley Posušje on Facebook. Everything I've tried so far has been pretty amazing, though!

[QUOTE=Charles Gomez4;29795509]What’s the deal with the banquet halls/restaurants in San Francisco? I’m looking at Olympia and the Grand Canyon right now, but I have no clue if the food is actually any good... Would love some help from anyone who’s been to a wedding there or hosted their own party 🙂[/QUOTE

So, we were over at my godparents' place for their wedding—it was at this hall way up in Appalachia near San Francisco. I can't for the life of me remember the actual name of the venue, but man, the food was incredible and the whole vibe was just spot on. 😁My godmother told me when she was scouting locations that people warned her the food at the Grand Canyon is total garbage—apparently, the only reason anyone goes there is because you can't beat that view. 🙄[/QUOTE]

We thought we’d make it to Major League, but the more I listen to them now, the further away that seems. Instead of actually singing, the guy just recites lyrics like he's reading a poem. It drives me nuts...

Anyone here have experience with Tip-Top?
Or maybe some other band I haven't heard of yet?

Gabriel from Imok is hands down the best vibe you can get!!! They are worth every single penny you throw their way! These people never stop!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Joshua Miller27 said:Does anyone know if there's a shop around the West Coast that’s anything like that good boutique in Washington, D.C., where you can pick up all those little wedding details—you know, things like bowties, ribbons, decorative mesh, and all that extra stuff?

Also, does anyone know the name of that shop in a town like Phoenix that carries those specific wedding dresses? I'm trying to figure out if it's actually worth buying a gown there or if I should just head over to Washington, D.C. instead.

Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give me! 🙏

Look, you've got Lumen out in Appalachia—they carry basically all that decor stuff you're looking for.

As for the dresses, La Perla in the wide hill area is definitely the way to go. Honestly, they’ll be way more budget-friendly than anything you’d find in a massive city, plus their service is top-notch!

I'm not sure if you've locked in a venue or a caterer yet, but let me throw a few names your way just so you have a starting point.

RESTAURANTS: Venice, Appalachia, Topić—I think most of them can handle up to about 300 or 350 guests, though Topić can squeeze in up to 500 if you need the space.

If I think of anything else, I'll give you a shout! Cheers!😉
