I absolutely love bridal showers since they’re usually so much fun. Weddings usually put almost everyone in a good mood and the guests at a bridal shower are no exception.

When decorating for the bridal shower, keep the type of bridal shower party favors in mind that you plan to give to your guests.   If you want to carry a party theme throughout the whole event and wedding, selecting party favors that match the theme is the easiest way to go.

The easiest way to select a theme is to match it to the bride.  Has the engagement been a whirl of happy events - possibly a fairytale party theme would work.  Another great option is to tie the bridal shower to the honeymoon destination if the couple isn’t have a staycation honeymoon.  Going to the Caribbean?  Select a tropical or beach theme.  Italy?  How about a wine theme or stock the kitchen theme?

Be creative when deciding on the bridal shower theme and select decorations and inexpensive bridal shower favors to match.

Writing your own wedding vows can become a terribly difficult task. You want to express your inner most feelings and the overwhelming love you have for your soul mate, all while trying not to embarrass yourself or say the wrong things. You may have even been forced into writing your own vows by your fiancé and may find it hard to convey your emotions verbally. Here are some useful tips that will hopefully make your vow writing experience less stressful and more in tune with what your heart feels.

First of all, it is important to know if your officiant will be willing to do personalized vows. Some religious practices will require you to recite certain parts of a traditional vow. Also the officiant will want to review your vows in advance. In general, it is up to your officiant to determine whether or not personalized vows are going to be acceptable. You should also know get on the same page as your fiancé in terms of how you want to go about reciting your wedding vows. Are your vows going to be kept secret from one another until the day of the ceremony or are you going to share your vows with one another and maybe even rehears them. You may even want to write your vows together to save yourself from any potentially awkward surprises.

Just like writing a high school essay, you want to start with an outline to help structure your vow. After you have completed making a rough outline of your vow, you want to find what kind of overall tone you would like to use throughout your vow. You can use a traditional poetic and mushy tone or if it fits your personality, go for a more humorous tone in your vows. The length of your vow should also be around a minute to help keep your guest from falling asleep.

Start from the beginning and describe what you felt when you two first met. Think about the time you fell and love and the feelings you had at that time. Another thing you can incorporate in your vows are describing the differences of the time before the two of you met to now and how your life has changed, hopefully for the better. Say what you expect out of the wedding and what you will do in order to make the marriage last and work for a lifetime. Just speak from you heart and your vows will turn out how you want them.

No matter what type of event you are hosting, make it extra special with personalized party favors. As long as you don’t go overboard with the personalization, these party favors will surely be a hit with your guests because they are available in so many different party themes.

If you want to select party favors that are sure to be used by your guests, select a favor on the practical side such as sunscreen, lip balm, or hand creme. These favors may be personalized not only with a name and date, but you can also choose a label that matches your party theme. For example, if you are having a beach Quince party, choose the sunscreen with a palm tree or seashell label in a color that matches your court.

Fall wedding decorations may also be personalized and handed out to guests after the celebration. Select a Hershey’s chocolate bar with fall leaves or how about individual cappuccino coffee favor with an autumn theme. You know your guests will be sure to use these practical favors at home.

Also, just because a favor is personalized does not mean it has to have a person’s or couple’s names on it. These types of personalized favors are great for homecomings, proms, retirement parties and so much more. You decide what you want imprinted on them to make the extra special for your event.

Plus size sexy lingerie for big women is readily available on-line. But some buyers are hesitant to buy plus size lingerie because of the way they think they’ll look.

There is an easy way of elevating your self-confidence.

Go to any of the hundreds of websites offering plus size lingerie and look at the women modeling it.

The first thing you’ll notice is that they look gorgeous. Not only are their faces beautiful, but manufacturers have come up with a number of tricks to camouflage problem areas. These include sheer robes for shoulders and arms and longer sheer gowns.

Then notice their figures. All of them, however, big are toned. It looks as if they are doing some exercise.

So, if you’re concerned about wearing plus size sexy lingerie, do a few exercises. You don’t have to lose weight, just tone up those problem areas.

Then, enjoy.

Is your “baby” about to turn 16? Time sure does fly doesn’t it? I remember when my oldest was just a baby and now she’s a junior in college. My second daughter just turned 16 and it was fun to throw her a Sweet 16 Party%.

Since we live in Florida and my daughter’s birthday is in May, we went with a beach themed Sweet 16 party and had beach theme decorations and party favors. You can choose a fantastic theme for your party depending on where you live and what month you will be celebrating the birthday.

Beach themes are always very popular and easy to do during the summer months. Kids love a pool party, beach party or any party that is around water. Choose beach themed Unique Sweet 16 Party Ideas and decorations to carry the fun theme through the whole party.

For the child that has always been the princess, what better theme than a Fairytale Cinderella party theme. Take your decorating cue from the movies you’ve seen with princesses. Cinderella wore a blue and white dress. Baby blue and white is an easy theme to recreate with bows, ribbons, birthday cake and more. Blue is also one of the most popular colors for the Quince court. Party favors for a Cinderella themed event would be carriage candle favors or Cinderella’s slipper elegantly crafted from crystal. What guest wouldn’t love to receive one of these party favors?

Butterfly themed parties are also very popular and allow you to be creative in your colors. Is your favorite color orange? Imagine all your decorations in a brilliant orange with butterflies gracefully flowing overhead. Birthday cakes designed with butterflies that look like they’ve just touched down for a taste of the sweet icing. Butterfly party favors such as butterfly place card holders at each guest’s seat or butterfly key chains would provide your guests with a thank you memento they can use at home.

Is the Sweet Sixteen party going to be held in the cooler Fall or Winter months? Take advantage of the holidays and incorporate that theme into your party. Party in October? What fun a costume party would be. November? Use the beautiful colors of chocolate brown, rust, and yellow to create decorations so beautiful you won’t want the party to end. December? Decorate in the traditional Christmas or Hanukah color schemes – sure to get the party rolling. Party favors can also be tied to the holidays. Autumn leaves bookmarks are perfect for October or November. Winter wonderland inspired gel candle favor would be a lovely gift for December and January parties.

Tying your sweet sixteen favors and decorations to the time of the year makes it easy and fun to decorate for the party.

Trying to decide how to thank your bridal party for being in your wedding? What about everything they’ve done for you BEFORE the wedding day?

Your bridesmaids and especially your Maid or Matron of Honor will be with you through the whole wedding planning process so you will definitely want to thank them for being there for you. One thing you should keep in mind is that the Maid or Matron of Honor is not your slave or wedding planner. You know your bridal party will jump in to help you do any task that needs to be done – it’s up to you not to take advantage of them in the process.

For a very elegant, yet lovely bridesmaid gift consider a jewelry set. You can purchase each member of your bridal party bridesmaid jewelry sets that match the bridesmaid dresses they will be wearing. If you want the bridesmaid jewelry to match your wedding color or the bridesmaid dresses, take a look at the many crystal jewelry sets available. No matter what color you have selected for the bridesmaid gowns, there is a matching or complementary bridesmaid jewelry set to match.

Another great jewelry gift for your bridal party you may want to consider is personalized jewelry. There are many jewelry options to choose from to personalize. These choices include cuff bracelets, silver heart necklace, heart earrings and you can also personalize the jewelry pouch to go with the jewelry for a complete set. If you do personalize the jewelry pouch or jewelry roll, consider using your wedding color for the initials.

Also you may want to consider sterling silver necklace sets with CZ Diamonds if you love the look of platinum. Sterling silver with rhodium finish has the look of expensive platinum jewelry. Selecting a fine sterling silver and CZ diamond necklace in a heart, teardrop or Victorian design with matching earrings will be a bridesmaid jewelry gift that your bridal party will wear again and again.

Every day, we hear from brides who just can’t seem to lose the last 10 pounds they ‘feel’ they need to lose before their wedding days. They’ve been dieting and exercising non-stop for the past several months and the last 10 pounds just won’t budget.

I’d like to ask you, do you really think that last 10 pounds is going to make a difference? It depends. If you’ve been dieting and exercising religiously, you’re probably pretty toned and the last 10 pounds you think you need to lose are evenly distributed over your body. So in this case, the answer is no. The last 10 pounds will not make a difference and you should relax and enjoy getting ready for your wedding. Just keep doing what you’re doing and you’ll maintain where you are.

For those who have been dieting only and not exercising, you may have the 10 pounds you want to lose in an area that will effect how you look in your dress. There is a program that we’ve tried in-house that will help you lose the last few pounds you need to lose but we don’t recommend you do this long term. It is the Wedding Day Diet. This diet is a step by step, day by day guide to lose the last few pounds you need to lose to look perfect in your wedding gown.

Bottom line is yes, this diet will work for you but you have to commit to following it. Also, please consult your doctor prior to starting ANY diet. To get the complete low-down, visit the Wedding Day Diet Review by clicking here:

It’s almost to the point where I really hate to open the newspaper or turn on the TV because all we keep hearing about is our dismal economy.  And yes, it is pretty bad right now and unfortunately, the experts say we haven’t hit the bottom yet.

Many couples starting out had originally planned large weddings but are now rethinking spending thousands for one day.  Are you one of these couples and are you thinking can you cut back and still have a nice wedding?  The answer is yes.

If you are at the beginning of the wedding planning process, it is easy for you to keep everything scaled down then if you have already made many of the wedding arrangements such as a hall, flowers, cake, and everything else that needs to be taken care of.   Hiring a wedding planning could save you money but if you have the time and help of other people, you can probably do the research yourself and save the fee you would be paying a wedding planner.

The absolute first thing you should do is start a notebook.  Inside the notebook, place tabs for each category you need to plan starting with the budget.  If you miss a category, don’t worry.  It can be added later when you need it.

Title the first category “Ideas”.  This is where you’ll start.  Jot down all your ideas, designs, add any magazine articles, pictures or anything else that you want to incorporate into your dream wedding.

This is where we will stop for now.  Keep an eye on this section for continuing tips and suggestions for a beautiful wedding day that won’t put you in the poor house.

Until next time.
