  • Either! Both! I could really eat any food I crave for any meal - a dessert for breakfast, breakfast for dinner, anything goes. But now that I think about it, desserts seem to appear VERY often as a meal substitute for me.

    Has anyone been to/had a wedding at Villa di Rocca (LA County)?

    We're getting married next April (LA), and we're currently looking into wedding venues. We don't plan a big wedding, there will be around 70-80 guests. Still, the prices I saw are astronomical, honestly. The idea is to have both the ceremony and the reception outdoors, and ideally to have the catering and everything included. So far, Villa di Rocca looks like our best option. I actually really like it, the natural surroundings are beautiful, take a look. We're not aiming for something super fancy, like an elegant ballroom or whatever. In practical terms, the price, the location, everything works for us (not to mention there is enough parking space). The only thing is - they only have one review, and, okay, it's 5 stars, but it's only one. Yes, we will actually visit the place before we commit, of course. I was just wondering if there's any chance that someone here has been to a wedding there and could share some first-hand impressions? For example,

  • Been saving for the wedding since the beginning of the year. It is going better than we thought, but at the same time, everything is so much more expensive than we imagined. But as for the saving itself, I'm positively surprised how small (and I mean really small) things add up. Okay, we are two people, and it's been four months. Just, we got excited when we checked where we were yesterday, but almost immediately after that, we looked into some of the things from the wedding list, and now the amount we saved suddenly doesn't seem that great. Anyway, I drifted. Saving for the wedding, and I choose to say it's going well.

  • Honestly, what's not expensive these days? I did some remodeling in my home, and boy oh boy did we go over the budget with things I considered cheap. I looked into different manufacturers and they all claim the same thing I found here, the materials, prices going up, and labor shortage... Not really sure what's the difference, but one thing is for sure - I'm not rich enough to buy cheap things (and replace them all the time).

  • You can't force it. Just be you. It's better to be comfortable with a few people you like and simply avoid draining your energy on others. Just be open to letting a few people in "your world" to test out your social battery and build tolerance.
