2K is our magic number to keep us from having to raise registration rates, so that's what we're always aiming for

Yup, so we charge $300 for the labor of stuffing the envelopes and (optimistically) ask you to send us 2000 copies of the flyer. Any leftovers we can give back to you or put on the tables for people to pick up

You HAVE to celebrate good things. Even if they’re tiny and fragile and may blow away. In fact, you have to celebrate the fragile ones EVEN HARDER because who knows how many chances you get?

And a marvelous time was had by all. Not pictured: an adorable ringbearer and her emotional support unicorn; a cake like a galaxy; assorted elves, wizards, and other fantastical people; and overflowing love.
