Max was absolutely incredible, but once again, the pit wall made the call.

ironcobra13 said:nimbleviper3, so is this one of those slow-burn artistic films, or what?
There’s a massive difference between movies made for the multiplex and true cinematic art. Don't you think?
Artistic works can often feel incredibly drawn out, don't you think?
ironcobra13 said:Listen, I couldn't care less. I grew up on American productions.
I mean, until my forties, almost ninety percent of the movies and shows I watched were American. So, expanding my viewing repertoire is never a bad thing, right?

Gary Reed9 said:Villa California, Hemingway, Pirate... they’ll serve up whatever you want and whatever you negotiate—food, drinks, you name it. I remember once we even had pizza delivered because that's just what the crowd was craving at the time. Basically, if you have the cash and enough ridiculous whims, you can get any kind of music or vibe you want.
Look, let’s be real here—back when I used to pay for my seat at Dolisa, it was about $40 including drinks (though we just brought our own spirits and dessert). Even now, post-pandemic, places like Dugopolje might hike their prices since everyone is looking for event spaces again. My point is, those lower prices people mention are for the basic tier. If you’re looking at custom requests—like a bride wanting specific decor or everything tailored to her exact vision—you have to balance both families' needs, and yeah, the price can go up, and up, and up.
Gary Reed9 said:You can grab a decent table for about $30-$40 in places like Dugopolje or Castleton, but if you’re picky and want those high-end spots—think hotel ballrooms with a menu that actually offers something other than just charcuterie, soup, risotto, or roast—you’re looking at $60 to $100 or more.
As for the band, expect to pay double what I just mentioned. If you want an accordion player or some folk musicians, you're looking at roughly $1667 up to $1,000+, depending on the season and travel costs. DJs are usually cheaper; you can probably find one for under $1,000.
Photography can also get pretty pricey if you’re asking for the whole package—video, digital shots, physical albums, invitations, thank-you cards... the works.
Flowers and decor? That really just depends on how deep your pockets are—the sky's the limit there—but you could scrape together $1,000$0.67 for just the basics from a small local florist, like the sweetheart table and the bridal bouquet.
Then there are the favors. They can be real or artificial, bought from a florist or custom-made by local crafters, ranging from a few bucks to several dozen per piece. For a batch of 100, plan on spending at least $100+.

I am truly at a loss for words—there is simply nothing more to say... everything has been laid bare.
Thanks... Regarding that price—does the cost for being in the capital include both the meal and drinks, or is everything billed separately down in California? It’s hard to tell sometimes...

Now I'm looking into music and photography. I’ve been browsing the threads and noticed a lot of people bringing up Pixar, but I’m getting the vibe that not everyone is exactly thrilled with them. Anyone willing to share their actual experiences?
As for the music, I need a DJ or a band. Just nothing like Christina Aguilera, Pitbull, or any of that cheesy, redneck, right-wing stuff...
If you've got any solid recs, let me know.🙂

Admit it—Jacob Brown11 gave you a solid recommendation, didn't he? 😁
