Instead of spending thousands to travel to Italy for their engagement photos, this couple just went down the road to their local Olive Garden.
I can respect it.
Weddings can already be expensive, especially if you're trying to capture a specific esthetic. And even more so if that esthetic is Italy. One future bride, and her soon to be husband, got creative with how they achieved the "Italian" look they wanted for their engagement photos.
They just went to Olive Garden.
Hunter LaShea Photography took the pictures, and I have to admit, you would probably never know that these photos were from Olive Garden. Not only were they able to achieve their dream engagement photos, but afterwards they probably got to enjoy bottomless salad and breadsticks. That sounds like a win-win to me!
I've actually been seeing a trend when it comes to engagement and wedding photos where there are a lot more candid's. In fact, a friend of mine just took hers while eating chips and cheese dip at their favorite Mexican restaurant, and I love it! I think seeing couple do what they actually love to do is endearing.
I definitely respect this couple and photographer for working with the resources they had to take these pictures!
Congrats to the happy couple! Now I'm hungry after writing this...
These Are The 20 Foods Most Likely To Irritate IBS
Do you suffer from IBS? You aren't alone. Just on Reddit, there are more than 76,000 members of the IBS community. IBS is a common digestive condition that can cause diarrhea, stomach cramps, and constipation. Certain foods are known to trigger IBS. But which are the worst? Well, food sensitivity specialist YorkTest conducted a study to find out. They took 50 common ingredients regularly tested for food sensitivities and cross-referenced this with data from Reddit’s IBS sub. This allowed them to gain a perspective on the foods that are more irritating to people who have IBS. This top 20 list features the foods most discussed on Reddit (determined by the number of posts).
Caffeine is often something said to trigger IBS symptoms and this study confirms that. You'll also find lots of meats, some vegetables, fruit, and grains on this list. In fact, there are so many common foods on here, that I'd struggle to plan a week's worth of food avoiding them. This opened my eyes to the struggles that IBS sufferers face on a daily basis. Do any of these foods that trigger IBS surprise you? Is eating them worth the symptoms? It's easy to envision a scenario where at a restaurant, party, or meeting you'd have to eat some of these foods.
