What do you all think of this cake stand (the one on the left)?

Could someone please DM me the phone number for that makeup artist from Sephora? Thanks! :-))

Sure, I might go take a look at some invitations down in San Francisco...

Hey, just wanted to drop a quick note for Sasha’s wedding guide—you can actually pre-order it right now on the www.amazon.com website. It should arrive by $80, though the official release date is February 8th. I was also wondering if anyone happens to know if it might be available in local bookstores later on?

Zachary White9 said:Thanks, Jeremy Wilson5. You've got a point there—I think I'll look for a live band instead. I'll check which ones are free for the ninth month, since everything is already getting super crowded by then anyway. 🤷 😕

No problem at all! I really hope you manage to find a spot that suits your taste. 🙂

I can confirm she is heading home. She has actually come over to do my makeup before as well.

Also, what’s the vibe on hiring a DJ instead of a live band? I know a DJ usually has a better repertoire, but I really don't want it to feel like we're just listening to the radio or being cheap
I haven't actually formed an opinion yet since I've never been to a party without live music. What do you guys think? Which way is better
😕 🤷

It all really comes down to your personal taste, but if you ask me, I’m always going to vote for live music. Maybe a DJ would work for a luncheon or a seated dinner where there isn't much dancing involved, but the atmosphere a live group can create—whether it's a full band, a duo, or even a trio, as long as they are talented—is just incomparable. At least in my experience, I've been to a few events where that was the case (and just to be clear, I'm not saying the music or the food was bad, it just felt like something was missing from the overall vibe).
Perhaps you should try attending a wedding with a DJ sometime, just to see if you actually enjoy it. Since you've never experienced one without live music, I guess it might not be the wisest move to gamble on it for your own big day just yet.

I think I remember seeing a segment on ABC News once where they mentioned this issue can actually be treated quite successfully with laser therapy—they were filming at a clinic in Chicago, if I recall correctly. Has anyone else heard about this? Any info or personal experiences would be really helpful!

If only we had booked them first. 🙏

Take my word for it—if there’s one thing you can be certain about, it’s that the music is going to be fantastic.
As for the singer, they actually switched vocalists a few months back. The previous girl was incredible, and I think the new one is just as talented, so there really isn't much of a difference in quality.

The last I heard, the figure was actually closer to $2,300.

Jerry Sanchez53 said:Viva actually played at our celebration last year—they were $1,500 back then. THEY ARE WORTH EVERY PENNY! 🙏 I don't want this to sound like I'm just bragging, but even now, people still talk about how we had the best band ever. As far as I know, they've bumped their price up to $2,200 now because they're so heavily booked.
These guys are true professionals—everything from the music to the gear is top-tier. They even bring that fog machine effect for the first dance. Honestly, I wouldn't skimp on the music; it's pretty much 90% of the entire vibe👍

I agree with every single word!
