WEDDING DAY
Planning a wedding to remember...
Popping the question:
whether it's the guy or the modern woman who  builds the
courage to ask the most feared question by most everyone,
here are some tips that might help alleviate your jitters.

-Are you sure he/she is the one?
-Have you thought this through?
-Are you ready for a serious commitment?
-Do you have a plan?
-Have you inconspicuously asked the right questions to make
sure that your partner feels the same way?
-Are you ready to take all the responsibilities that come with this
commitment?
-Oh, and whatever you do, don't forget to ask her/his parents for
her/his hand in marriage and to discuss with your parents this
big move in your life, her/his and your parents will give you very
valuable advice; even if you don't agree, openly listen.
-Asking someone to marry you is admitting that you want to
spend the rest of your days with this person; "
make sure they
are your friend, that you laugh, and that you can be yourself,
when youth, health, beauty and money are not there all you
have is each other."

Spark Your Creativity!
Are you going to act just like any Joe/Jane? Maybe not!
Maybe you want to make it very obvious, or maybe you want to
play a guessing game, maybe you want to take her/him to their
favorite place or to where you met, maybe you want to arrange
for little messages to be delivered. What is hers/his fantasy
moment? Common, we all have one! Maybe you want to throw
a surprise party "just because", (you got the wrong birth date) or
something to that effect, but whatever you do plan well and
make it memorable!

The Ring!
Do you know what kind of ring she/he wants? What size she/he
wears? Well, do your research, and remember that this is a
lifetime investment, so go all out, might be pricy but it's worth it!

The Engagement
Although we live in a "Modern World", it is still proper to consult
with your parents about the lifetime commitment that you are
about to "engage" and it is also of etiquette to talk the her/his
parents about your decision, after all, you want to have a great
foundation.
Wow, this is really big! Now the families and close friends must
meet via the engagement party, this is when you guys share
your happiness and future plans with your immediate families
and friends.

    gown you and your wedding party are wearing you might
    need to wear gloves, also jewelry to compliment the

    for the groom and the other one is for you to toss)
