How to organize the wedding – alone or with wedding planner

The wedding – a hard preparation, taking many decisions, many worries and excitements and lots of nerves. Here is the moment to assess do you need the services of a wedding agency or you will do everything alone.

One of the questions you should ask is how big the wedding will be. If the guests will not be more than 50-60 people you can do it yourself with the help of family and friends. But if you expect more than 100 people to celebrate with you than it is more reasonable to rely on professionals. Not because you cannot do it alone but because you risk to get too tired, too worried or be nervous without a reason before this such an important day. Furthermore, hiring a wedding agency you are not left outside the organization. Just the opposite – you take all the decisions but for the implementation somebody else will take care. Another person will go to the ritual halls, restaurants and will take all the sometimes annoying details. Isn’t this great?!

Another important thing, you should keep in mind is the budget. How much money do you have and would expenses increase if you hire an agency. For example, you can give more money if you hire a wedding planner but in most cases they use discounts at restaurants, arrangements, stylists they work with. So once you draw the line there might not be any difference.

If you decide to organize your wedding alone, it is very important to distribute your time. Make a list with the task and an exact schedule. Don’t do everything alone, accept help from close people. This way you will not be nervous, worried or in a hurry in the last moment.

If the wedding is not big and you will organize it spend some time to make something to show your personal interest to the guests. If you can make the invitations by yourselves or buy new ones but sign them in hand. This makes every one of them unique and will make your close ones feel special. If you are skillful you can make small presents yourself, lucks or the bows to hang on the guests. But before you start doing this consider how much you can do. Don’t forget that these things should bring you joy and no bore you. So this is why they are appropriate for wedding with about 40-50 people.

You took the decision to hire a wedding agency –you should know that for every decision the last word should be yours. Most girls plan and think about their wedding since children and have a very specific idea of everything related to it. Explain to the people of the agency what you want but be opened to their suggestions. They are professionals overall. Or if you don’t like some of their ideas don’t worry to tell them and be firm.

Whatever you decide – to organize the wedding alone or use a wedding planner, remember – this is your day! Make it the way you like it! It’s once in a lifetime!

Women are lonelier after marriage

When we are in love everything is pink. And the time comes to build a family.

What is family? It is not necessary to count all the possible problems and hardship related to it. But why women feel lonelier after marriage even more than if they didn’t have a man?

In the family there is a new competition which is worse than the hottest neighbor. It is Work. Yes, if the man works in a factory in his free time he will not think of work. But things are not like that with man that deal with art activity or business.

In the morning he has breakfast quickly but not always, works at night, constantly talks about the colleague of the other department, reports and percentages. He doesn’t notice the new dress or the hair of his wife. But why are we talking about the dress when he doesn’t even have the power to have sex. And for this obligation the words passionate sex are inappropriate for a long time.

Insoluble problem! If the husband works a lot the home will soon lack sexual satisfaction. But if he pays attention to her wife she will soon go away because the money will not be enough. A medium position should be found.

What should the wife of such workaholic do in order to deal with the situation? First of all to be aware of her feelings! What doesn’t she like? Sex is not much, there is no romance, flowers and presents, there is a need of help in the household and when raising the children?

If the problem has a sexual character then deal with it right away. Don’t tell him you are unsatisfied, he will gain complexes. It could lead to impotency due to psychological problems. You should follow your purpose in two directions – developing the sexuality, improving the man’s health. The simple women’s tricks, hints and erotic underwear in this case could be inappropriate. Try to enhance your sensitivity. Change the menu of your husband. Add pine nuts, honey, ginseng. Use red onion.

Try to use the time you spent together rationally. Do whatever makes you close. Talk about your emotions, wishes, acts. It is not necessary to discuss people and events that are not personally related to you. Praise your man for his little acts that make you happy! He tries even if you don’t notice it. Let these minutes make you closer. Many couples cannot reach this for years.

Is there a topic your husband can talk for hours? He can clear the new world order and the difference between the micro schemes of the children and you deal with the household.

In the family everything depends on his salary. Does he ensure a peaceful existence of his family or you pay the bills, clean, wash, cook for everybody? If your income is not high and you don’t see perspectives you need a serious talk.

The authors of the following research by the Otago University of New Zealand have analyzed data from a major research on the physical health, covering 34 493 people of 15 countries.

The analysis showed that the termination of marriage when the brake up comes or death occurs is related to increased risk of psychological problems as men are more likely to become depressed and women overuse alcohol and medicaments.

Specialists have tested what happens with the psychological health during marriage in comparison with the single life and the termination of the matrimony.

Researches have established that marriage in comparison with single life is useful for the mental health of both genders, not only women as considered until now. The results of the research indicate that during the first marriage men suffer less than women from depression and anxiety which is due to the traditional distribution of roles in the family. When married women are better education they are more unlikely to suffer from depression.

Wedding gowns for plump ladies

Every woman wants to look good all the time, but the wedding is something special. On her wedding a woman wants to be a princess, the most beautiful among all who are present and here the bridal gown plays a key part. Unfortunately, plump ladies have a sore problem there – not every dress will look good on them. However, if you are one of the lush ladies out there – don’t despair! You can still look sexy and astonishing on your most special day.

If the bride is to be beautiful, her dress must be fashionable and corresponding to her personal taste and caprice, but it also has to highlight the advantages of her figure while hiding the imperfections.

The best gown for a plump bride is the simple one, not very wide at the bottom. The high-waist dress will accentuate the lush chest and will draw attention from other problem areas. The beautiful chest can also be highlighted with a deep neckline.

The skirt can widen very gradually into a bell-shape.

It is no longer required that the wedding gown be white, all the more that his color is known for optically expanding the body. Different color wedding gowns are very much in style which gives plump beauties extraordinary freedom. Such a gown can also be used after the wedding for other special and highly formal occasions.

It goes without saying that fleshier ladies should keep away from the tight-waist gowns. They should also avoid the mermaid-type gowns, because they highlight the curves of the body all the way to the hips and knees. Lush brides should refrain from using lush ornaments and decorations. Frills are also not recommended, because they create extra volume. Light, “lively” fabrics, a long bottom part of the dress, a deep cleavage are all ideal for a plump bride. Direct your choice away from the heavy fabrics; they will add weight to your moves. Do not use belts or contrasting colors for the upper and lower parts of the gown.

Advices for an elegant party look

Selecting a party outfit in the winter is a difficult decision made even harder by the incredible variety of dresses on the market. In the last few years, the elegant, feminine style has become very fashionable and here you will find some advice on how to achieve it.

The dress code

When you are trying to decide what to wear to the party, it is important that you take into account what kind of party you are going to. Different outfits should be worn to a casual party with friends and a company party at the office. Deciding on the dress code is the first step to creating the perfect look.

The glamour factor

The key to an elegant look is to add just the right amount of glamour. If you want to wear a shiny metallic dress, then you should refrain from adding jewelry. Likewise, if your dress has a simpler, cleaner look, you can add some sparkle to it by wearing large, attractive jewelry.

The eternal party look

When talking about elegance and formal events, you can always trust the time-tested classics to make you appear stylish. The little black dress, high heels and a small clutch purse are the basics of the unfading party look. You can always update this classic appearance by adding different trendy accents to it.

Select the colors carefully

Colors can play a significant role in creating your perfect party appearance. If you are wearing a dress in a more neutral color, then you can add a contrasting purse and shoes or other decorative elements. If your dress is in a bright, vivid color, then a more neutral selection of jewelry will be better.

The perfect patterns

Patterned dresses are very stylish this season. The most elegant suggestions are those of neutral-colored gowns with geometry shapes or abstract forms. When you wear such an impressive gown keep in mind that your accessories must be either neutral or in contrasting colors.

An elegant two-piece

The elegant two-piece outfits are made popular by Yves Saint Laurent and are an extremely fashionable choice for the winter season. You can combine your straight black pants with a silk white shirt and a long coat or blazer.

How to clean golden jewelry

The maintenance of your golden jewels is not a complicated ordeal with too many scientific considerations to be applicable by ordinary people. However, it does require some simple knowledge that you will find in this article.

Golden jewels do not darken like their silver relatives, but they can still get dirty, which will make them lose their shine and may even lead to skin irritations. It is important to keep them clean and shiny. Fortunately, golden jewelry care is extremely easy and cheap. Before we begin with the cleaning, however, we need to take a look as to how and what makes them dirty.

Most often this is due to a residue of decorative and cleansing cosmetics and human secretion of sweat, body fats and dead cells, which cover the gold and make it lose its shine.

There are different procedures for cleaning golden jewels and which one of them you will pick depends on whether your jewel is set with gems or not.

The easiest way to clean golden jewels with no precious stones (such as chains, rings or bracelets) is to dip them for 15 minutes in a bowl of warm water mixed with a few drops of soap or a mild dish-washing liquid, then rinse them and let them air-dry on a soft towel. Despite its simplicity this method is very efficient against the standard pollutants of gold. The soap solution can reach and dissolve them even in difficult places, like between the links of a chain or the fastener, which are usually hard to reach.

Cleaning golden jewelry with gems is not so simple. Submerging them in water can be contraindicative, because it can corrode the bed of the gems and loosen their setting. This procedure is not as simple, but it is still very easy. Make the soapy solution described above, but instead of dipping the jewel itself in the water use a soft towel to wipe it clean. Use a towel soaked in clean water to rinse it and set it on yet another towel to drip-dry. If you are using dish-washing liquid for these procedures keep in mind that it must not contain abrasive elements or corrosives, because they will harm your golden jewels.

Often golden ornaments are richly inlayed or have complicated intricate curves, which are not readily cleaned by a rub with soapy water. For their cleaning you will need to use a very soft toothbrush. Dip the toothbrush in the solution and lightly rub in a circular motion. This will get rid of the stubborn dirt in hard-to-reach places. Afterwards rinse the jewel with clean water and let it air-dry.

It is important to remember that you must never put your golden jewels away before they are completely dry, because this will leave stains on their surface. Those stains are easily removable, but pose an unnecessary complication to the cleaning process, which, as you can see, is quite easy. All it takes is just a little effort and even your old golden jewels will regain the shine of their youth so that you can truly enjoy them.

The choice nowadays – marriage for the money

Girls nowadays think in perspective for their future and from the saying that love is transitional. What in fact remains after it, good feelings, habit, being quite because of good matters?

Marriage because of the money is often selected choice nowadays as it is not obligatory the chosen one to be a grandpa with lots of money in the bank. The opportunity for the lack of love does not exclude the sympathy, good attitude or the feelings of friendship. The understanding between two people could lead to love, not crazy and burning but satisfying enough and allowing good way of life. Love could be established with time and the lack of passion and sexual satisfaction to occur.

In the Middle East countries the man negotiates his wife with her parents. She does not have the opportunity to start or stop loving. Does this mean she is unhappy?!?! Hardly, because she lives with the inner belief that this is the right choice she loves her husband with his positive and negate e qualities. He is what he is…he should take care of her.

This is what religion and moral dictate. This is why I think at the end the inner attitude and beliefs are the most important factor for personal happiness and perception of life.

Everybody has a choice in life and when faith doesn’t do anything for us we should undertake something to help faith as we find best.
