For the wedding we did a "nerd chic," with Star Wars elements tastefully built in throughout. (John Williams music, lightsaber pommels for the bouquets, the tables were each different "ships" and guests looked at a board for their fleet assignment.

For the reception, my venue had a separate area from where the dancing was that we had them put extra tables with games for those who didn't want to dance.

Also had a friend who did a scavenger hunt.

We’re doing a wedding with no sit-down dinner. It’s going to be just a giant cocktail party type of thing. Lots of small plates being passed & 8-10 stations with small plates. We hired a wedding planner to help us with this, it’s kind of a lot of work to through all of the logistics

SC1 aren’t you worried about ladies in heels who just want to sit for a while?? 😯

I’m struggling. I left an agency I liked last year due to growth limitations and since then I’ve worked at 2 different agencies and can’t seem to find my footing. The first one seemed like a good fit at first but then it turned out to not be the best place for me so I left. At my current agency I feel super undervalued. I’m always raising my hand and offering to help where I can and no matter what I do, I don’t feel utilized or valued or part of the team.It’s really taken a toll on my confidence

I feel like I've been living under a rock for ~5 yrs. I was happy and blowing off money with the thinking that I'll start saving once I start earning more.

Just realised that could've started early. I'm in mid 20s and thinking about investment. Tried watching YouTube videos. But I have pretty basic questions :
1. Where do I even start?
2. What %age of income should I invest?

I hope I'm not late.
