- assad saying his favorite part of the dubai scenes were the “looks” between him and eric
-armand blender shoutout!
- sam reid #1 lestat fan and going strong. when asked how he makes lestat someone we want to root for despite being kinda horrible he essentially said “i understand him. i root for him”
- sam and jacob playfully bristling at each other’s descriptions of their characters and where the “truth” lies for them lol
-for a question about a fun behind the scenes moment, sam and jacob proceed to look directly at each other, burst into laughter for the next 30 seconds, and then refuse to tell us an anecdote?????
-eric saying that Sam and jacob follow each other around on set like no other actors he’s worked with previously and play around “like puppies” lol
-assad describing armand when he meets louis as “lost” and putting on a performance of confidence and power that isn’t fully real
- jacob sent an email to assad calling him “the big VA” in season 1
-eric complimenting the writing of the show again and talking abt how thankful he is to do intense, subtle, emotionally difficult work on this show that he’s never had an opportunity to do before in his career (since he’s usually just the “angry” guy when cast)
-delainey saying that claudia would be the type of girl to go to sephora and shoplift even though she doesn’t need to in modern day
-rolin confirming material being used in the season from tvl, queen of the damned, tale of the body theif, tva, and prince lestat
-episode 3 will be the armand flashbacks to meeting lestat and theatre performer lestat
-episode five is the original interview flashback. according to rolin, episode 5 is where we understand why the second interview needed to happen for one character, and episode 8 we unveil why it needed to happen for another 👀
- in response to what tv show would your character binge: armand -> buffy the vampire slayer; daniel -> breaking bad; claudia -> the oa; and lestat and louis watch real housewives together (this is canon to me now btw)
#keeping my thoughts in the first episode private atm#but i will say….. guys we’re winning#it’s seriously so so SO good#the budget increase makes everything more grand#and most exciting to me is the dubai scenes — there’s a new energy in the space that is hilarious but threatening but tragic….. delicious#iwtv s2

I think OFMD has a much much bigger impact than we realise.
Recently, there's indeed been an increase in diversity, especially with queer characters, in media. But it's always somehow along the lines of pushing a little bit just to test the waters, just enough so that people will think you're progressive, while not daring to anger the Conservative audience. Somehow, dancing on the line between inclusive and not diverging from the norm which creates a sort of compromise if you will, a product that doesn't give either side what it wants.
The people who are searching for themselves in these modern characters are left shallow, are left to settle with the barest minimum, inclusivity that's half-assed and not so much well intentioned as it is a cashgrab to lure you in.
And David Jenkins completely swerved around that. He decided he's not going to play that game of fetch with his fans. No no no. He went all out. No more pretense. No more selfishness and greed. And this next part that I'm going to mention is the point of the post.
David Jenkins cracked his audiences. He disected their brains and figured out their wants and wishes. These past couple decades, ever since franchises like POTC, Harry Potter, and Marvel came out, Hollywood has understood this notion where it believes people want to see quality rather than soul. That it wants to see big explosions and high-tech suits and resolution upped to the max. That might have been the case up to several years ago, but lately, with new audiences coming up, these things have changed.
Now that everything in the real world is continuously and relentlessly going to shit from every direction, with newer generations getting a picture of what's to come and wanting no part in it, losing hope every day, people don't really care about those things anymore. They don't care about how big your budget is or how oscar-worthy your movie is. They care about comfort. They care about safety. They care about love.
And David Jenkins realised that. He realised it much much sooner than some big studios are still failing to do. We all realise the show didn't have much of a budget, hell it doesn't even give a shit about historical accuracy or consistency. But what it did care about were realistic characters. Characters who have different personalities (unlike every new Marvel character lately), who are complex and nuanced, who have different body types, different genders, different nationalities, different races, different sexualities. Everyone is their own person. Everyone has a history and a reason for their actions. And not just that but the WAY David gave a giant fuck you to every queerbait show and movie was impressive and BOLD as fuck. He saw that game of playpretense and decided he didn't want any part in it. Because quite frankly, it's cruel. And by caring about his audiences he managed to take the entire world by storm
Finally, the world might realise what viewers are actually looking for. It's not millions and millions of dollars spent on making the most expensive and grand movie of the year. Its love. It's comfort. This man basically brought a new renaissance to film making. And I cencerely hope studios realise what this means (and also start paying their workers!!)

- August 23rd 2023 -
Do you know what the most common bird is in your area? Robins, cardinals, blackbirds, finches, sparrows. Those are the ones I see most often at our bird feeders, at least.
What last made you feel ecstatic? Hearing that the airline my husband flies for has just earmarked nearly a billion dollars for pilot backpay checks as part of the new contract, and we'll be getting the money in about a month. Not sure what we'll do with it yet, but we might use it to increase our home-buying budget, and/or buy an RV.
What would make you feel happiest right now? A cure for hyperacusis. Or even just an effective treatment.
How many teeth have you had extracted? I had to get one pulled before I got braces as a kid. I was born without one of my upper adult canine teeth, so my bite was completely uneven, and I had to get the other one pulled to make everything symmetrical.
Do you ever read magazines? I like to read AOPA Pilot, Scientific American, and occasionally magazines on cooking and interior design.
What is something you've been reflecting on? Family, and how what one's family looks like evolves over a lifetime. When you're a kid, you have your parents, siblings, grandparents, etc, and you don't even think about how someday your parents and grandparents won't be there anymore, and how people you will someday call family haven't even been born yet. But as you get older, you gradually lose the older generations of your family, and new generations are born (whether that be your own kids, or nieces/nephews, and then eventually grandkids and grand-nieces/grand-nephews). I've been thinking about this lately, with the loss of my Granddad. He was such a cornerstone in my life that it feels like my family isn't complete anymore without him here with us. The makeup of my family is forever changed.
What's something you like and dislike about the town you live in? I love so much about my town! It's a cute little Midwestern town with beautiful Victorian-era buildings in the middle of town - lots of cozy shops and restaurants. And in the very middle of town is the town square, a small park with a gazebo and lots of trees. There are a lot of community events held there, like the farmer's market, art shows, concerts, and holiday festivals. This town also has a ton of great parks and hike/bike trails, and nice neighborhoods. As for what I dislike… honestly, not much. I guess I just wish we had a wider variety of restaurants.
What's a Halloween movie that you enjoy? I can't think of any that I like that much.
Would you say you're more confident now than you were 5 years ago? Maybe a bit.
Have you ever or would you try carrot bacon? I'd definitely try it.
What's the last thing you purchased that was frozen? Watermelon popsicles.
Would you ever walk a runway if given the opportunity? Meh, I'm not particularly interested.
When did you last do something that scared you? I can't remember.
What is something that you're curious about? New discoveries in physics/astrophysics. There is still SO much that we don't understand about the universe.
What time do you usually eat breakfast? Shortly after waking up. That could be 8 a.m., that could be 1 p.m. LOL
What is something you done as a child that you would never do now? Horseback riding. I did it as a teenager. I'd never do it now, there are too many ways to get injured doing equestrian sports. Plus it's more difficult to recover from injuries in your mid 30s compared to your teens haha.
What's been your favorite memory of 2022? Maybe the lakeside cottage vacation that my husband and I went on.
When were you last inside a tall building? Haha I have no idea. I don't spend much time in cities. The last few cities I've been to were London, Baltimore, and NYC, but I don't recall being in any tall buildings while there.
Is it currently quiet in the room you're in? It would be quiet in here if it weren't for all the thunder/wind/rain outside.
Is there someone you can honestly say you hate or have hated? Probably?
What's currently on your mind? I'm wondering how I should structure the rest of my day. I need to get groceries (but I don't want to go out til this crazy storm passes), and I need to do some housework, and I'll probably also need a nap at some point because I didn't sleep that well last night.
Would you consider yourself to be a messy person? Not super messy. I try really hard to be tidy, but it takes a lot of work because it doesn't come naturally to me.
What makes you most anxious? When my hearing disorder flares up.
When did it last rain where you live? It's raining right now. A LOT.
Do you prefer multi colored lights or white lights? For Christmas string lights? I prefer white lights, they look more classic, which is totally my style.
What's something you'd change about the world if given the chance? I'd make billionaires pay their fair share towards bettering society and helping those in poverty.
Would those closest to you say you talk too much or not much at all? They'd say I'm in between.
Do you consider yourself to be more basic or complex? In what ways are you like that? I can be either. There are things about me that are uncomplicated and straightforward, but there are also things about me that are complex and intricate and difficult for others to fully understand.
Where is somewhere you've been wanting to go but haven't had the chance? New Zealand. Well, I've technically had chances to go there, but I haven't because it takes literally 24-30 hours of travel time to get there from here. That's really daunting.
Do you have a song you cannot listen to anymore due to a bad memory? Potentially, but I can't think of any right now.
Have you ever had a candlelit dinner? Yep.
What was the last shot you've taken? The Covid booster, last December.
Do you need to apologize for something or are you waiting on an apology? Neither.
What's something you strongly believe in? Just how vital education is to society. You cannot have a society that functions well if people aren't educated, especially in the areas of science and humanities/civics.
Do you have a dream that is close to being accomplished? Hopefully! My husband and I are house-hunting and I hope the perfect house pops up soon.
Would you say you're in a good place mentally? Yes.
What type of jokes are most funny to you? It depends.
Would you or have you ever had a pet rat or mouse? I've never had either. Not super interested in having either as a pet, though. Birds and guinea pigs are the only pets I'm interested in having. Currently I just have birds.
Are you currently trying to make a decision on something? Just a minor decision, but yeah.
When did you first start feeling more grown up? I started to feel like a real adult when I was around 19. I got my first ''adult'' job in airport operations, I got my pilots license, and I had been living alone for a year by that point.
What kind of chapstick do you use? I don't use that exact brand of lip balm. I actually don't usually use lip balm at all - I've found that Cetaphil cream works way better because it actually hydrates rather than being sticky and waxy and sitting on top of the skin. The only lip balm I use is a Japanese one with SPF, it's the only one I've found that's not waxy.
How many pillows do you prefer to sleep with? None. I use a folded up quilt instead of a pillow, it gives much better support. Pillows give me horrible neck pain because they squish down into nothing as soon as I put my head on them.
What is something you've kept bottled up for a long time that you now have released? I can't think of anything.
Have you ever broken a cell phone charger? No.
What's a popular candy that you do not like? I think Airheads and Jolly Ranchers are super nasty. Oh and Hershey's chocolate, it has a chalky texture and an aftertaste that vaguely reminds me of vomit.
What scent is most prominent in your home? I don't use any heavily scented stuff like candles or scented cleaning products. I have pet birds, and birds have very sensitive respiratory systems, and strongly scented stuff can be harmful to them. The only time my house gets a strong scent is when I'm cooking or baking.
Have you been having odd dreams recently? Yes but odd dreams are the norm for me.
Do you frequently forget appointments? No.
What is currently sitting on top of your refrigerator? The Vitamix blender.
How many orange objects can you see from where you're at? Just one.
Would you rather have extremely long hair or a very short hair cut? Ehhh… I think I'd dislike them both the same.
When did you last use lotion? A few hours ago.
Do you currently have any prescription medications you need to pick up? Nope, not for a few months.
What's your favorite kind of chips/crisps? Tortilla chips. I don't like potato chips that much.
How do you like your coffee or tea? I like my tea with a splash of milk. And I rarely drink coffee, but the only way I like it is if it's iced.

On dressing up, getting through life, and doing “the work” in an unjust world
Being the desi queer that I am, I woke up early on menstruation-day-4 and put on a classic ‘90s Bollywood song, “Woh Ladki Jo” (I find that the eponymous lyric that says that this girl is different from everyone ("Woh ladki jo sabse alag hai") very hilarious because I’m all like “I really am not like other girls because I’m not actually a girl. I just love makeup and dressing up regardless of all that”), on repeat, and did my makeup. Put on my girlfriend’s dress. Rolled my eyes at my cramps (and fatigue and breakouts and omfg all the pain). I did a lot of spoon recovery and self-care yesterday: was able to take off work because the schedule was sparse, got a much-needed haircut (the last one was before my defense in April 2021), and basically was horizontal for the rest of the day. Today, I’m much more active - I can feel myself being more genuinely upbeat even though I’m still grieving.
And I’m so upset at the state of the world. I always am.
As Angela Davis says: “Sometimes we have to do the work even though we don't yet see a glimmer on the horizon that it's actually going to be possible.”
I think we should all do something. Anything. Within our limits, sure, but something.
But what work should we be doing?? How do we measure or even justify if we are doing what we can or if it is even going to make a difference? When things are so systematically unjust at so many scales and levels of entrenchment, it’s hard not to get jaded even when you’re outraged at the senseless violence that not only happens in this country but all over the fucking world.
I used to be a part of the DEI group at my old department at Pitt (where I did my Ph.D.). DEI stands for diversity, equity, and inclusion. We were a group of four: two professor-types, one student (me!), and one staff person. We banded together after the murder of George Floyd - many organizations all over the country formed DEI groups. Our department head was SO enthusiastic about it (you know how it goes (paraphrased): “we gotta do something about this!!”) but … only four people signed up. And we were powerless. We came up with ideas and drafted a couple of plans/documents: a proposal, a mission statement, a budget, a failed book club idea (my idea, no surprise), and a contentiously received presentation…. We were largely ignored. There were some programs in place and efforts made to increase diversity but it all was strained. Other people in our department mentioned that the work was hard with little payoff. Others had grand ideas that could not be done without more staffing. No one had the allotted time or energy. Morale was low. And we didn’t have the resources to really conduct investigations into the state of equity or even have the requisite knowledge to educate or bring about change.
Many activists say that DEI groups don’t work. They’re performative, at best.
Performative DEI is perpetuating the problems we face. It is not “the work.” Posting a blackout picture (even though you can! And there is utility and validity in raising awareness and sharing your pain/concern!!) or simply sharing a hashtag without any real follow-through is… not furthering the cause. Having an organization that is isolated from everything else just to have it… is laughably not “the work.” Throwing money at the problem (even though you should donate and support as much as you can) is not just enough.
These are my suggestions (I come from a place of privilege as I type this, and I am open to feedback, criticism, and suggestions):
1. Make a fuss. Call people out: your colleagues and even yourself. Say uncomfortable things. Say “I don’t like it when you comment on my colleague’s hair” or point out the lack of diversity on your team “There are 5 white-passing folks and only one brown person. Hmm, why?” Use your words as best you can and then be humble when corrected on your language. Clearly state that you think your organization is racist or gendered or not inclusive. Call out ableism. Say it in front of your boss. Be emotional. Make it socially uncomfortable. Do it over and over again. Everyday. Risk your job even if you’ll lose it and you’ll be left with nothing - sacrifice is necessary. Make it obvious. Because we are all too complacent and… keeping the peace keeps the oppressive structures in place. 2. Actually make DEI a priority by funding it, hiring more staff, encouraging it at EVERY event, and making it a part of day-to-day operations (how you ask? Idk… why don’t you take the time to figure that out? Cancel meetings and meet about this instead. Scratch your heads and figure it out - it’s not an extracurricular, and it’s not easy. Do it for years! It should be a part of your job, no matter what your job is.). 3. Make real progress on DEI goals. DEI goals should be part of the business plan. Mandate it. Make the goals small and realistic so that they can actually get done. Follow whatever paradigm that will help (e.g., SMART goals). 4. Pay everyone involved. Fairly according to industry standards or whatever. More than just a livable wage, whatever that looks like in your area. This goes along with funding. Require DEI training, regularly. Make it mandatory. Make it so annoyingly part of the training and maintenance of your organization that people talk about it all the time. 5. Have a DEI presence at every level of your organization. Connect the presences. Clearly define any form of accountability metric. Then publicly and obnoxiously showcase those metrics, even if they don’t look good. Especially if they don’t look good. Awareness and “the work” requires us to acknowledge our failures and not just our successes. 6. Keep creating accountability metrics and then redefine them… constantly. Have people relearn what they need to keep track of. 7. Don’t sensationalize DEI. It’s not just an event. It just doesn’t happen when someone gets murdered. Integrate it within your work and your life. Some of us don’t have a choice but to be affected by the inequities of the world… then why do you or your organization have that choice? 8. Don’t be discouraged by a lack of progress. Don’t give up (I did give up because I was fatigued but there were no structures in place to help motivate me. And the people who cared enough to encourage me didn’t have the support either). Don’t give up like me, even if you’re a fatigued POC. And if you feel like you’re drowning and no one is listening, SCREAM. Protest. Figure out a way to get your voice heard.
That’s my call to action. What’s yours?

Whether you're dreaming of a grand celebration or an intimate gathering, the Wedding Hall M25 corridor offers venues that cater to various tastes and budgets.
Why Choose a Wedding Hall Near the M25?

Another advantage is the variety of venues available. Whether you’re after a modern hotel, a historic manor, or a countryside barn, the options are endless. Plus, the M25 area often boasts more affordable venues compared to central London, without sacrificing charm or quality.
Types of Wedding Venues Available
When it comes to wedding halls near the M25, you’ll find something to suit every taste. Here’s a breakdown of the most popular types:
1. Historic Mansions and Manors

Considerations When Choosing a Venue
Choosing the right wedding hall is about more than just falling in love with the first place you visit. Here are some key factors to keep in mind:
1. Guest Capacity
Before you start your search, have an idea of how many guests you’ll be inviting. Venues vary widely in size, so you’ll need to find one that comfortably accommodates your guest list. Keep in mind that a venue might feel too cramped with a large number of guests or too empty with a smaller gathering.
2. Location and Accessibility
Consider how easy it will be for your guests to reach the venue. Is there ample parking? Is public transportation nearby? These practicalities can make a big difference in your guests’ experience.
3. Availability
Popular venues can book up well in advance, especially during peak wedding season. Start your search early and have a few date options in mind. Flexibility can increase your chances of securing your dream venue.
4. Budget
It’s important to have a clear idea of your budget before you start touring venues. Remember to ask about what’s included in the rental fee—some venues offer packages that include catering, decorations, and even accommodation, which can save you money in the long run.
5. Style and Ambiance
Every venue has its own unique style, so think about the type of wedding you want to have. Are you looking for something formal and elegant, or more relaxed and rustic? The venue should match the overall vibe you’re going for.
6. On-Site Services
Some venues offer additional services, such as catering, wedding planning, or decor rentals. While these can be convenient, they may also limit your options. Decide whether you prefer an all-in-one package or the flexibility to bring in your own vendors.
Popular Wedding Halls on the M25

What to Ask When Touring a Venue
When visiting potential venues, it’s essential to ask the right questions to ensure it meets your needs. Here are some critical inquiries:
1. What’s Included in the Rental Fee?
Understanding what’s included can help you determine if the venue is within your budget. Ask about furniture, linens, catering, and any additional charges for setup or breakdown.
2. Are There Noise Restrictions?
If you’re planning on having a lively celebration with music and dancing, check whether the venue has any noise restrictions. Some historic venues may have limitations that could affect your plans.
3. What’s the Backup Plan for Outdoor Weddings?
For garden or outdoor weddings, it’s crucial to have a contingency plan in case of bad weather. Ask about indoor alternatives or marquee options.
4. Can We Bring in Our Own Vendors?
Some venues require you to use their preferred vendors, while others allow you to bring in your own. If you have a specific caterer, florist, or photographer in mind, make sure the venue can accommodate them.
5. How Is Parking Handled?
Parking is a practical consideration that can affect your guests’ experience. Ensure there’s enough parking available and inquire about any associated costs.
Budgeting for Your Wedding Hall
The cost of a wedding hall can vary widely, depending on factors like location, size, and services offered. Here’s a breakdown of what you might expect to pay:
1. Venue Rental
Venue rental fees can range from a few hundred to several thousand pounds, depending on the venue’s prestige and location. Historic mansions and exclusive-use venues tend to be on the higher end of the scale, while barns and smaller venues may be more affordable.
2. Catering
Catering is often the most significant expense after the venue itself. Some venues offer in-house catering, which can simplify the process, but it’s essential to ensure the menu fits your budget and preferences.
3. Decor and Rentals
Depending on the venue’s style, you may need to budget for additional decor and rentals, such as lighting, furniture, and linens. Some venues include these in their packages, while others require you to bring them in.
4. Additional Services
Consider any additional services you might need, such as wedding planning, transportation, or accommodations for guests. These can add up quickly, so it’s important to factor them into your budget early on.
Tips for Personalizing Your Wedding Hall
Your wedding hall should reflect your unique style and personality. Here are some tips for making the space your own:
1. Incorporate Personal Touches
Personal touches can make your wedding feel more intimate and special. Consider incorporating elements that are meaningful to you as a couple, such as family heirlooms, favorite quotes, or photos from your relationship.
2. Use Lighting to Set the Mood
Lighting can dramatically affect the ambiance of your wedding hall. Whether you prefer a romantic, candlelit atmosphere or bright, festive lighting, choose options that enhance the mood you want to create.
3. Choose a Theme or Color Scheme
A cohesive theme or color scheme can tie everything together and make your wedding look polished and well-planned. Whether it’s a specific color palette, a seasonal theme, or a particular style (e.g., vintage, modern), make sure it’s reflected in your decor, attire, and even your invitations.
4. Add Greenery and Florals
Flowers and greenery are a beautiful way to bring life and color to your wedding hall. Consider using seasonal blooms and lush greenery to create stunning centerpieces, bouquets, and floral installations that complement your venue.
5. Create Interactive Elements
Interactive elements, like photo booths, guestbook stations, or a DIY cocktail bar, can add a fun and engaging aspect to your wedding. These features not only entertain your guests but also create lasting memories.
Booking Your Venue: Timeline and Tips
Booking your wedding venue is a significant milestone in the planning process. Here’s a suggested timeline and some tips to ensure everything goes smoothly:
1. Start Early
The sooner you start your venue search, the better. Popular venues can book up a year or more in advance, so aim to start looking at least 12-18 months before your wedding date.
2. Have a Few Dates in Mind
Flexibility with your wedding date can increase your chances of securing your preferred venue. Consider having a few potential dates in mind when you start your search.
3. Visit Multiple Venues
Even if you fall in love with the first venue you visit, it’s a good idea to tour several options. This gives you a better sense of what’s available and helps you make an informed decision.
4. Read the Contract Carefully
Before signing any contracts, read the fine print carefully. Ensure you understand the cancellation policy, payment schedule, and any additional fees that might apply.
5. Consider Off-Peak Dates
If you’re working with a tight budget, consider booking your venue during the off-peak season or on a weekday. Many venues offer discounts for off-peak dates, which can save you a significant amount.
Maximizing the Location: Nearby Attractions

How easy is it to choose a wedding venue in Canada
Choosing the perfect wedding venue is one of the most significant decisions you’ll make while planning your big day. The venue sets the stage for your celebration, influencing everything from the décor to the overall vibe of the event. In a country as vast and diverse as Canada, finding the right venue can be both exhilarating and challenging. With stunning landscapes, cosmopolitan cities, and a rich cultural heritage, Canada offers a wide variety of wedding venues that cater to every taste and budget.
In this guide, we'll explore how easy—or difficult—it is to choose a wedding venue in Canada. We'll discuss the various factors that can influence your decision and provide practical tips to make the process smoother. We'll also integrate important aspects like Toronto event rentals, DIY decoration on weddings, the role of wedding decorators near you, and the importance of event decor rentals supply. Additionally, we'll include key insights on flower decorations for the wedding reception and party decorations, linking you to resources that can assist in planning your dream wedding.
Factors That Influence the Ease of Choosing a Wedding Venue
1. Geographical Location
The geographical location of your wedding plays a crucial role in determining the ease of finding a venue. Canada’s diverse geography offers everything from urban settings to rustic countryside and picturesque coastal areas.
Urban Venues: Cities like Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal are teeming with wedding venue options. Urban venues often provide easy access to Toronto event rentals, allowing for seamless integration of rented décor, furniture, and other essentials. In Toronto, for example, you can find a variety of stylish lofts, grand hotels, and elegant banquet halls that cater to different wedding styles. For more information on event decor rentals in Toronto, visit Toronto event decor rentals.
Countryside and Coastal Venues: If you’re envisioning a wedding amidst nature, Canada’s rural areas and coastal towns offer stunning options like vineyards, farms, and beach resorts. These locations provide a serene atmosphere but may require more logistical planning, particularly in terms of transporting guests and coordinating with local vendors.
2. Budget Considerations
Your budget will significantly influence your choice of venue, and how easy it is to find one that fits within your financial plan. Venues in popular locations or with extensive amenities tend to be more expensive, but there are ways to manage costs effectively.
All-Inclusive Venues: Some venues offer packages that include everything from catering to décor, which can simplify planning but might limit customization. On the other hand, if you prefer a more personalized approach, consider DIY decoration on weddings, which allows you to manage your budget more flexibly by sourcing materials and decorations yourself.
DIY Decorations and Rentals: For those looking to cut costs, DIY decorations offer an excellent opportunity to add personal touches to your wedding without spending a fortune. Utilizing event decor rentals supply companies can help you access high-quality decorations at a fraction of the cost of buying them. For guidance on top rental companies in Toronto, check out Toronto’s Top 10 Event Decor Companies.
3. Venue Availability and Seasonality
The time of year you plan to get married will have a significant impact on venue availability. Peak wedding seasons, particularly summer and early fall, see higher demand, which can make securing your dream venue more challenging.
Booking in Advance: To increase your chances of securing the perfect venue, it’s essential to start your search early. Popular venues often book up over a year in advance, especially for summer dates. If you’re set on a particular venue, reach out as soon as possible to check availability.
Seasonal Flexibility: If you’re flexible with your wedding date, consider off-peak seasons like winter or early spring. These times of year often come with lower costs and more available dates, making it easier to book the venue of your choice.
4. Venue Capacity and Guest List
The size of your wedding will also play a crucial role in determining the right venue. Some venues are better suited for small, intimate gatherings, while others can accommodate large guest lists.
Small and Intimate Venues: If you’re planning a small wedding, you’ll have a wider range of options, including boutique hotels, historic homes, and private estates. These venues often provide a cozy and personalized atmosphere that’s perfect for a close-knit celebration.
Large Venues: For larger weddings, options like banquet halls, convention centers, or outdoor spaces like vineyards and parks are ideal. However, finding a large venue that aligns with your vision and budget may require more research and planning.
5. Personalization and Décor
The ease of choosing a wedding venue in Canada also depends on how much flexibility you want in terms of personalization and décor. Some venues come with built-in themes and décor, while others offer a blank canvas that allows you to design your wedding from scratch.
Customizable Venues: If you have a specific vision for your wedding, look for venues that allow for extensive customization. Outdoor spaces, barns, and lofts often provide the flexibility to bring in your own décor and vendors. Working with wedding decorators near you can help bring your vision to life, even in more customizable settings. You can explore options for wedding decorators in Canada at Wedding Decorators near me in Canada.
Pre-Designed Venues: Some venues have a distinct style or theme that you can embrace without much additional work. These venues often come with built-in décor and amenities, making the planning process easier. However, they may not offer as much flexibility for couples who want to create a unique look.
Tips for Choosing the Perfect Wedding Venue in Canada
1. Define Your Vision
Before you start searching for venues, take some time to define your vision for the day. Do you want a grand, formal event or a laid-back, rustic celebration? Are you drawn to modern, minimalist aesthetics, or do you prefer something more traditional? Having a clear vision will help you narrow down your venue choices and ensure that your selection aligns with your overall wedding theme.
2. Set a Realistic Budget
Establishing a realistic budget is crucial to narrowing down your venue options. Consider all the costs involved, including the venue rental fee, catering, décor, and any additional services. Don’t forget to factor in taxes and service charges, which can add up quickly.
If you’re working with a limited budget, consider venues that offer flexibility in terms of DIY decoration on weddings. This approach allows you to allocate more of your budget toward other essential elements, like photography or a live band.
3. Consider Logistics
Think about the logistical aspects of your wedding when choosing a venue. Consider the location’s accessibility, parking availability, and proximity to accommodations for out-of-town guests. If your venue is in a remote area, you may need to arrange transportation for your guests, which can add to the overall cost and complexity of the event.
Additionally, consider the venue’s layout and how it will accommodate your planned activities, such as the ceremony, reception, and dancing. Make sure there’s enough space for everything you want to include, from a spacious dance floor to a beautiful setup for flower decorations for the wedding reception.
4. Visit Multiple Venues
Don’t settle on the first venue you visit. Touring multiple venues will give you a better sense of what’s available and how each option aligns with your vision. Pay attention to the venue’s atmosphere, layout, and amenities, and consider how they’ll work with your wedding plans.
When visiting venues, take note of how the space flows and how it might be set up for your event. Consider factors like natural light, indoor and outdoor options, and the overall ambiance of the venue.
5. Ask About Packages and Inclusions
Many venues offer packages that include various services like catering, décor, and rentals. Ask about what’s included in the price and what additional costs you might incur. This will help you compare venues more accurately and stay within your budget.
For example, some venues may include tables, chairs, and linens in their rental fee, while others may require you to rent these items separately. Understanding what’s included will help you make a more informed decision and avoid any surprises down the road.
6. Leverage Local Vendors
Working with local vendors, such as wedding decorators near you, can simplify the planning process and ensure everything goes smoothly on your big day. Local vendors have experience working with venues in your area and can offer valuable insights and recommendations.
Additionally, local vendors can help you save on transportation costs and ensure that everything arrives on time. For instance, when planning your party decorations, consider partnering with a trusted local provider like Blooming Wedding Decor to ensure your vision is brought to life seamlessly.
7. Embrace the Possibilities of DIY Decorations
If you’re a creative couple or working with a tight budget, DIY decoration on weddings can be a rewarding way to personalize your event. From handmade centerpieces to custom signage, DIY projects allow you to infuse your personality into the décor while saving money.
However, DIY doesn’t have to mean doing everything on your own. You can still utilize event decor rental supply companies to provide the basics like table linens, chairs, and lighting. This hybrid approach gives you the flexibility to focus on the personal touches that matter most while ensuring the essentials are covered. Learn more about the top rental companies in Toronto

it's finally happened.... doctor who no longer sparks joy for me ☹️
i love the cast, costumes, diversity, queer rep, music, camp, themes & messages, the meta! the elements are great, but as a whole i don't enjoy it. i hate that i don't enjoy it!
with the increased budget i knew the show would be different, which i didn't (and still don't) have a problem with, and approached the prospect with an open mind. after six disney episodes i can now confirm that, while everything looks fantastic, it feels too grand, too polished & superficial, too impersonal at times. it doesn't have that shabby intimate small-scale-epic vibe i fell in love with back in 2006. also, i've noticed that a lot of dialogue culminates in shouting & squealing when it doesn't need to. the quiet poignant moments WORK but those moments are surrounded by so much noise it feels disjointed, the tone feels off.
i'm not one of those "this isn't doctor who! it's not MY doctor who! it's not MY doctor! i'm scared of change & will make it everyone else's problem waaah" people but i can't keep pretending that my time with the doctor hasn't run its course and that i haven't just been going through the motions of an almost two decade habit that i derive no pleasure from anymore. in hindsight i think flux was the last hurrah.
just to be extra clear: these feelings have more to do with me than the show. i don't hate the new series or anyone involved.
my immediate thought during the end credits of space babies was "i don't want to watch the next episode" 😐. the only reason i did was because i felt like i should to give it a chance, still holding on to hope of the return of that spark that i've been trying to convince myself still exists for years now. granted, i did enjoy the devil's chord more than space babies (take me away maestro! 😩) so i am glad i watched it in the end bc there are some delicious nuggets of fun in there. however, this is now officially the first time i was actively aware that i forced myself to watch doctor who out of obligation rather than desire. that ain't right!
fuck. i hate this. but i have to accept that my heart's just not in it anymore and move on. the fact this is happening at a time when the show is probably at its most openly unabashedly progressive kills me.
from what i've seen so far, many whovians are loving it, which is great. and to the newbies i say welcome! i hope you have a wonderful time.
i won't ever stop being a whovian or engaging in fandom of course, and i'm still interested to know where this current arc is going but i dont have the mental or emotional capacity to watch it. i'll live vicariously through this community's beautiful gifsets, analysis, memes & fanfic ❤️
#doctor who#dw#doctor who series 14#me#whoops i thought i'd posted this last weekend but it's just been sitting in my drafts!#better late than never lol

Wanna buy a new notebook? Check out some info about the right configuration of the machine
Nowadays people are searching for a notebook with a great configuration that can help them use it in a lot of situations. In fact, a good portable computer has some advantages in comparison to a regular one. In both cases, the user can act on some different tasks, like browsing the internet, writing emails, watching videos, etc.
Still, before you buy a new machine, it is extremely important to get to know some information about the notebook. You have to understand some terms like RAM, SSD, and the generation of the processor. This will indicate if the portable computer has the right configuration according to your own needs.
The cost benefit is a characteristic that can guarantee that you are buying a product with everything you need with a low budget. This is a moment which requires some understanding of how the machine works, and if it has the tools you are searching for. So, it is necessary to obtain some information about the product.
The good news is that if you want to buy a good notebook you can search on the internet for more information and data about the portable computer easily. They are presented in e-commerce sites and grand technology corporations pages. You can compare the machines, their price, their configuration and choose the best for you.
The ideal notebook
First, it is important to understand why you are buying a notebook. Is it for studying? Playing video games? Will you use it for your professional activities? To watch movies? Maybe you need a top of the line computer, or one to use in a park. A basic disposable can help a lot with a great number of tasks.
Before acquiring a notebook, take a look at some information like the cost, processor, RAM memory, storage memory, video card, the screen and its resolution, and so on. If you need a machine only to study, there's no need to get a computer with the best performance, a basic one will do the job.
By the way, the notebook processor is like the brain of the machine. It can make the device faster and smoother, but it will increase the price exponentially. It will help to search on the internet, play video games and with heavy softwares. If you have the money, don't think twice, buy it! It is worth it!
RAM memory
Regarding the RAM memory, this is the place where the apps, softwares, applications and the operational system will get the fast data on the notebook. The more memory you get, the faster your machine. It is important to say that the minimum of RAM in a computer is 4 gigabytes. This means that a product with this configuration can do a lot of tasks with a low price.
Indeed, if you can buy more RAM do it. The reason for this is that a 8 gigabyte machine is a basic configuration for today's tasks. We are seeing some technology innovation like never before, so, if you wanna use the best tools on the market you need to acquire a machine that can run it.
Internal storage
One of the most important configurations of the notebook is related to their internal storage. In this case, a machine with an SSD is required. The reason behind this is that it is faster than the conventional HD. The minimum capacity is 128 GB. It is important to notice that it will be used mostly to run the operational system Windows.
If you can get a good SSD with a great capacity, you will be able to store a great quantity of photos, videos, documents and a lot of softwares and applications. So, it is worth it,. then again, a notebook with great cost benefits can help you on a lot of tasks and can be used for professional activities.
Video card
Also known as graphics card and GPU, the video card wil process everything that is visual on your notebook. For example, it will help you to watch videos, photos, effects, and play video games if you want to. It can be integrated or dedicated. The more advanced the video card, the more expensive the machine is.
By the way, the size of the screen is also important. A 15-inch model can go on the schoolbag, it is not so heavy, and can be used to work or to study. A bigger display has its own benefits, is more expensive, but can be used in different ways, so you need to watch your necessities before buying a notebook with these characteristics.
Conclusion
Before acquiring a notebook it is necessary to check out their configuration, the computer specifications. Be warned, it is common on the market to get a great number of machines with the same characteristics but with different prices. It is important to know your necessities and how much money you want to spend.

Direct Mailing Service for Businesses?
When you’re a business, there are so many different marketing channels at your disposal. It’s easy to get caught up in email blasts, social media posts, and other digital channels – but direct mail can give you the opportunity to break through the noise and connect with your audience on a more personal level.
Direct mailing services can help you outsource the entire process of creating and sending out your business’s mailers. They can handle everything from list building to addressing and printing. You can also choose a variety of mailer formats, from postcards to envelopes and oversized pieces. The format you select will be determined by the type of campaign you’re running and your target audience.
Postcards are a popular choice, and they can be a great way to promote an event or special offer. They’re often less expensive than other types of mailers, and they can be an excellent option for businesses with a limited budget. They can be used to announce grand openings, real estate transactions, and new products or services.
Personalized mail can boost response rates, and it can be a great way to increase brand loyalty. For example, if a customer buys an item from your website, you can use an automated system to send them a thank you card that showcases the product they purchased. You can even include recommendations for similar items that could appeal to them. This level of personalization can make all the difference when it comes to customer retention.

Hollywood stars strike outside Netflix and Disney as productions in UK are suspended | Ents & Arts News
US actors and writers have come out in force to protest outside some of the biggest production companies in the world in a move set to paralyse Hollywood's film and TV industry.For the first time in 63 years, both SAG-AFTRA (the Screen Actors Guild - American Federation of Television and Radio Artists) and WGA (the Writers Guild of America) simultaneously took to the streets of Los Angeles in a bid for fairer pay, better working conditions and addressing the concerns of AI use in production. Ted Lasso star Jason Sudeikis, Titanic actress Frances Fisher and radio and TV host Billy Bush were some of the famous faces spotted on the picket line as the joint protests started on Friday.
Image: Ted Lasso actor, Jason Sudeikis. Pic: AP/RW/MediaPunch /IPX Discussions broke down between the unions and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) which represents film studios, TV networks and streaming services.Actors and writers claim their residual pay, money received from film and TV episode reruns, have been hit hard due to the streaming boom - broadcast TV rates were much higher. Series have become shorter, breaks between seasons longer, and the unions say that although series budgets are rising, that increase is not being reflected in the share of the money coming to performers.Actors also see their jobs as especially vulnerable to new technology, with AI able to replicate facial expressions, body movement and voice with alarming accuracy.Members of both unions marched outside major studios including Warner Bros, Netflix and Disney. The 11,500 screenwriters belonging to WGA have been demonstrating since May.

Image: Strikes took place outside Warner Bros. studios too. Pic: AP What about British cinema? The chief executive of the UK Cinema Association, Phil Clapp, said the strike may cause "little, if any, disruption" to British theatres for the "foreseeable future", but premieres may not see the glamour of stars on the red carpet."While it will clearly be for each individual to make their own decision, it may be that until the dispute is resolved we will see some premieres not being supported by the 'talent' in front of or behind the camera," he said."In terms of wider UK cinema-going, given the challenges UK cinema operators have faced in the last few years, all will be concerned by anything which might potentially threaten the supply of films to the big screen, and so it is very much hoped that there will be a quick resolution."Unless the current strike is a protracted one, we are confident that cinemas will see little if any disruption in the foreseeable future."Some productions in the UK have already been suspended as a result of the strike; Marvel's Deadpool 3, featuring Ryan Reyolds and Hugh Jackman, has paused its filming in Norfolk.Pictures also emerged this week of the abandoned set of Wicked in Buckinghamshire, after its stars Ariana Grande and Cynthia Eviro posted in support of the strike on social media.

0:55 Oppenheimer cast support strike Further solidarity was expressed by celebrities including George Clooney, Alec Baldwin and Halle Berry."This is an inflection point in our industry," Clooney said in a statement. "Actors and writers in large numbers have lost their ability to make a living."For our industry to survive that has to change. For actors that journey starts now."Baldwin, who had all criminal charges dropped against him 18 months after Halyna Hutchins was shot dead on a film set, congratulated the union for calling the strike in order to protect its "rank and file" members."I don't think anybody really wants a strike but they don't want to continue under the unfair contracts that we're working under now," he said."So congratulations to everybody and I hope this is over right after we get everything we want."Read more: Christopher Nolan didn't intend for Oppenheimer movie to be so timely Just Stop Oil protesters interrupt Proms concert Please use Chrome browser for a more accessible video player
1:28 Brian Cox: 'Strikes may get unpleasant' During the London premiere of the historical epic Oppenheimer on Thursday, actors including Matt Damon, Robert Downey Jr, and Emily Blunt left the red carpet to "write their picket signs", the film's director Christopher Nolan said.Meanwhile, Succession star Brian Cox said the strike could get "very unpleasant" and may not be resolved until the end of the year.The 1960 Hollywood revolt began and ended with screenwriters protesting for 148 days, with 42 days of actors striking sandwiched in between.There had been no further dual strikes until now.
