What would you like on vacation?
I live in a vacation area. I want to start a business selling the services of other small business in the area. If you were on vacation staying in a beautiful cabin, what services would you want or need? Here's what I've come up with so far.. sending a massage therapist for an in cabin massage, delivering flowers or gift baskets, delivering restaurant or home cooked meals, someone to carry in your suitcases, pickup %26amp; delivery of groceries. Can you think of anything else that you would like if you wanted your vacation to be a comfortable %26amp; memorable one? There must be other LEGAL services offered in other areas that I haven't thought of. I guess this would be considered concierge or guest services? I hope to work from home %26amp; support my kids with this idea. It means alot to me. Right now I am a single mom working part time %26amp; drawing partial assistance. I want to provide a good life for my kids without being away from them all the time. Thank you so much!

Owning a Commercial website?
This is a great idea to start your commercial website. There are quite a number of services you can sell online:
1. Web Services:- These includes domains, Web hosting, web design, web templates. You dont need to be a web designer, you can talk to designers then they use your website to sell their templates eg www.templatesmonster.com, You can also become a reseller of hosting services using Providers like Godaddy or Tucows etc. The good thing with these services is that you just sit at home as money piles online.
2. You can run recruitment and career advisory services eg oraclecareers.com, careerbuilder.com
3. You can run adverstsing services where people post ther adverts and they pay by duration of the stay online or per click on that banner
etc

What if for the past 6 years?
what is you did not sleep in the same bedroom as your wife for the past 6 years. She never wanted to be intamate. I tried the weekly date thing. No luck, she wanted to be home by 8. I tried the flowers and gift thing. no luck. I started to really develop an esteem issue. I just could not get her to tell me what I needed to do. I take care of myself but felt like she was unattracted to me. then the drama began. I feel totally betrayed
What if for the past 6 years?
just wanted you to know that YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!! I have tried all of these things and still no luck. i finally got tired of trying after six years and decided that this is the way it is going to be if i want to be a part of my son's life.
Reply:Dude, get out of there!!! I can almost guarantee she has someone else. Does she go out by herself at all? Are there times when she won't explain where she is, or her explanations don't make sense? She keeps you around for the paycheck, plain and simple. No one deserves to be treated that way!!! Good luck brother!!!
Reply:sounds like she needs therapy, you need marriage counseling together and/or she is cheating on you.
Sounds like pure he** too.... If she won't go to counseling, I'd divorce her. You don't have a marriage... something is terribly wrong.
Reply:i read your other post... i would leave. there is no way that other person respects you what so ever, oh and take your biological daughter with you... anyone that calls the cops on a parent like that, is only out for themselves, she probaly seen just money(child support) walking out the door.
Reply:Roll out, immediately.
Reply:probably having an affair, try counseling, if she is not up for it then get a divorce and don't marry anyone crazy again
Reply:Could be she feels unattractive. Could be she is depressed. Could be she has something on her mind that she doesn't know how to tell you. Six years is a long long time for this to be going on. Tell her you need to know what is going on that it is upsetting you and suggest counseling. If she refuses, then you will have to make a decision. You deserve to be happy.
Reply:leave that lazy beiotch... sounds like she aint treatin u right to me
Reply:well, maybe its nothing to do with you.........did ya ever think it could be her that is experiencing low self esteem about herself or something else is going on with her..........maybe the question you need to ask her is this " Honey is there anything you need to talk to about or need me to listen to?" maybe she will open up who knows.
Im sure she loves you and that she is attracted to you or she wouldnt of married you. I really dont know what advice to give except pray to God about all of this. He will not steer you wrong.
Good luck to you and ill say a prayer for you.

How much overhead can u save from a home based business?
I am thinking about selling flowers and gift baskets from the home than rent a building somewhere else.
How much overhead can u save from a home based business?
You can save quite a bit of overhead, however you will no doubt run into problems with the zoning laws that will probably forbid you from running a commercial establishment in a residential area.

I have fallen for a much younger married lady at work........?
with st. valentines day approaching should i send her an anymous bunch of flowers or gift or should be upfront n tell her how much i love her,even tho i know she dont like me
I have fallen for a much younger married lady at work........?
You should just love her from a distance, and keep the knowledge to yourself.
What you are considering will probably make you feel better, but it goes by the name of attempted homewrecking where I come from, and I causes nothing but problems.
This is a case where it's best to just keep it to yourself.
Reply:ofcourse you have!!! A young challenge is a nice treat,,but get real C'mon shes married!! Step your values up a bit and find a young not married woman that you might actually have a chance with.
Reply:Most stalkers just stalk and then kill the woman. Why are you trying to be different? Are you a sensative stalker? You should lose your stalking permit.
Reply:Keep it to yourself. If you tell her she will think you are creepy.
And you will be wasting money if you buy something.
Reply:she is married......leave her alone!
Reply:Have you even talked to her cuz you saying u love her is a lil creepy!!! And if she don't like you and you know it then leave the poor girl alone. She is probably happily married and just wants to be left alone. Sorry dude just thought I'd tell you and be straight forward.
Reply:Do both and not only will she tell you she loves you to .But and here comes the bonus part..............................
Yell get twice as many hugs and kisses. And she loves you to .I bet.: )
Reply:Then why if she dont like you?
Plus, she is married.
Reply:Why embarrass her and yourself
You'd make an utter fool out of yourself in this situation. So no don't do anything
Reply:Leave that woman alone.She married.Would you want to be the cause of a broken home,because I know I wouldnt.If she doesnt like you it would be an even bigger disappointment for you.So just leave it alone.Its a lose lose situation.How would you feel if yuo married ther woman you love and some guy crushin on her at work sent her flowers?You would be pissed.If you really like her you wont send the flowers knowing that it could cause her problems with her HUSBAND!Show some respect.
Reply:No don't do it. her hubby should ,give her flowers. Not you.
Reply:Unless you want a restraining order don't move forward without verbally interacting your feelings.Save potentially mutual embarrassment by utilizing dialog.
Reply:back off pall you are scratching where it don't itch. Find someone else and don't harassed the lady.
Reply:Dude, she is married. What if you were married and some guy did that to your wife??? Respect her... Do you think you have a chance??? Leave it alone, she is married and find someone who isnt attached....
Reply:Forget her!!! She's married!!!! You could also make a mess of your job if you don't leave her alone and her husband could get very irate with you.
There are plenty of women who are not married to date.
Joy to you!

Guys Only:What would you do if a guy who worked with your girlfriend kept hitting on her even after she...?
told him she was taken and to back off.The guy keeps sending her flowers and gift's.What's a guy to do?
Guys Only:What would you do if a guy who worked with your girlfriend kept hitting on her even after she...?
Stop by to pick her up from work and tell him, "Thank you for the flowers, but next time would you send white ones, because those are the kind I like." I hope your girlfriend DOES NOT accept anything he gives to her! That will just give him mixed signals. You should give the items back and VERY POLITELY tell him that it's better to leave that stuff to you. If he doesn't stop after THAT, tell him the next time those flowers will be sent with him to the hospital.
Reply:Get the police involved. Let him know you are 100% serious about this continued harassment. File a complaint with your local law enforcement right away...
I'm sure there won't be any arrests but once the police get involved the guy will get the picture.

Reply:I would talk to the person Man to Man... I beleive that a person hitting on my girl even if he knows that she's taken is insulting/disrespecting me personaly. I wouldn't get angry right away... I'll be the better man by talking to him in a civilized manner... If he still goes after my girl even after I talk to him, thats a different story. Thats the time to be more aggressive... Ofcourse, in any case, my girls well being is my primary concern.

Any idea for a very special gift for mom's birthday?
she is a florist so no flower or gift basket ... price does not matter i want it to be perfect
Any idea for a very special gift for mom's birthday?
Why don't you make her something for her birthday? The best gifts are handmade, and it's way better than buying something. Your mom will love it if you make her something. Maybe a collage of pictures of you guys or something. Just get pretty gift wrap, stickers, ribbons, glitter; and just decorate it. It's better if you give something from the heart, and it's cute and inexpensive. :)
Reply:I think something of the month gifts are really cute cause it'll last all year long. You could do like wine or candle or movie, basically anything.
Reply:buy her a mother's ring...site has great rings/quality at a decent price!
Reply:A poster about her favorite subject. Take a look at http://www.viewposters.com
Reply:If I were you, I would do this:
I would take a video camera and record a special message for your mom. Then I would record other members of the family wishing her a wonderful birthday and saying any other sweet messages they would want her to know. After that, I would gather some pictures of her with you and anybody else in the family and turn it into a slideshow with video. It would go picture, picture, picture, video, picture, picture, picture, video, etc... and dont forget to add music to the background! =D all it really takes is a video camera and a computer that has windows movie maker! good luck!
Reply:ok go get her a necklace with a heart that says number one mom or mabey one of those necklaces with kids and there birthstones
Reply:Why don't you do something very personal, like a collage of photos of the last year-her 'b-day number eg 48th' year. You can get pics arrange them into a frame and add captions of the photo, buy a nice frame or even a cork board and replace the frame on that one then get somone to fit glass to cover it and make it look nice.
OR plan make a photo album similar to scrapbooking, add photos and captions and make it look really nice then you can invest in a really nice box to keep it in, like a wooden box or somehting that she can keep forever.
Hope I helped! Happy Birthday to your mom!

Songs on the way to school; songs that we listened in the car etc... She took the time to find them (a long time) and made a special gift for me! I felt so special.. I cherish that CD with my heart. Every time I play it I want to cry..it was a time of happiness, memories and love between her and I. It didn't cost a lot, but she put all her love in it... Hope this will help.

They offer beautiful hand made paintings made from your favorite photograph. They’re very affordable. What I like about them is that they are reeeeaally good at capturing the physical likeness, something others can’t do. I was extremely happy with the results. It’s a unique and creative gift. In addition to paintings of a loved one, they also do paintings of things that have meaning to you like the first car, favorite vacation spot, a pet, etc.
If you ask them, they even send a hand made card in advance of the painting arriving telling the recipient that a special gift is on the way. Very nice detail.
Good luck!!

Tipping/Flower delivery?
Settle a disagreement?
When someone sends a gift of flowers.....are you suppose to tip?
I orriginaly said no because if it is a "get well, birthday or a funeral" then it is a gift from the sender and if the person has to tip, it is no longer a gift.
My neighbor pointed out that it is still a service so I'm not to sure anymore.
Tipping/Flower delivery?
I CAN TALK FROM EXPERIENCE I did this for a living a few years ago for about 18 months and I can tell you 75% of the people tipped usually the houses you never expected one from the villas a mansions never ever not even once in 18 months
Reply:When it comes to tipping here's the rules I follow:
1. Tip if you want to.
2. Tip if you can afford to.
3. Tip if there was good service, for example waiter/waitress, valet, bell hops, etc.
4. Not everyone needs to be tipped. For example, flower deliverymen, garbage men, mail carriers, etc.
5. It's YOUR choice.
Reply:Are you talking about the person who delivers them?No you don't. It is more akin to a postal service, and you don't tip the postman, do you, imo
Reply:Sending flowers/ gifts is to make somebody's day.
However if the recipient has to tip the delivery guy (Which translates to a hassle for the recipient), what's the point of sending it via delivery guy? Might as well send it yourself if possible. More meaningful too.
However, if the tipper in question is the sender, it will be a nice gesture if you think the delivery guy has provided good service.
Reply:As with most things regarding tipping, it's the discretion of the person receiving the services. Some people do, some people don't. Personally, I've never tipped someone for flowers I've received, but I have tipped for flowers I've sent someone else.
I don't know any flower delivery persons (and I've talked with several) who expected tips. They get paid the standard minimum wage (or more) regardless of tips, unlike most waiters and waitresses.

Reply:As with most things regarding tipping, it's the discretion of the person receiving the services. Some people do, some people don't. Personally, I've never tipped someone for flowers I've received, but I have tipped for flowers I've sent someone else.
I don't know any flower delivery persons (and I've talked with several) who expected tips. They get paid the standard minimum wage (or more) regardless of tips, unlike most waiters and waitresses.

Can someone give me some ideas for a gift for a Flower Girl?
The Flower Girl for my wedding is only 1 year old so I don't know what I can give her as a gift. Any ideas? She won't remember being Flower Girl but I want to make the gesture anyway. Thanks!
Can someone give me some ideas for a gift for a Flower Girl?
It's hard to say, as the flowergirl is more a 'Flowerbaby' :)
A stuffed toy would be cute, because as she gets older her parents can tell explain why that toy is particularly special...or perhaps a jewlery box that has an inscription on it?
For me, my flowergirl is my fiance's half-sister, and she is an only child in her household, so the idea of gaining sisters is really special to her, so I plan to give her some piece of jewlery that has a sister sentiment to it...course, she's seven, so it's a little different for me.
I think that there are very few gifts that a child that young could value in the present time, but as she gets older, she will look at the gift and think about you. So, a more timeless gift would be a nice idea.
Reply:buy her a locket and put a picture of you and her in it. remove the chain and put it on a ribbon to match or compliment her dress. she will have it to look at and you never know she may remember a touching moment of it...I have a memory that goes back to when i was nine months old. it is just very brief but i do remember
Reply:A teddy bear in a wedding dress...
Reply:Give her a gift certificate to someplace fun. One of the best gifts my daughter got for being a flower girl was a gift certificate to Chuck E Cheese. Taking her to build a bear is a great idea, she can have fun building the bear and then have a keepsake as well.
Reply:How about a nice piece of jewelry. Something she can wear when she gets older.
My flower girl is going to be 4. I'm thinking about getting her Wedding Barbie. I think that would be cute. I'm also thinking about jewelry too.
Reply:Hi, find something here. I think the lovely doll is the best choice. Have a nice wedding day!
Reply:You could give her a savings bond.
Reply:You can get her a savings bond or a little baby bracelet. Another thing that may be cool is to order a portrait of her (by your photographer) before the wedding starts when she is all fresh and pretty so her parents have a nice memory that she will enjoy seeing and showing her children later. Have a great wedding!
Reply:a coloring book
Reply:For my flowergirl (she's three) my fiance and i are giving her a little silver braclet with her name engraved on the heart. She can wear it on the day as well as have for afterwards!
Reply:For my sister's wedding, she gave out beautiful silver necklaces with a flower basket charm. Although your flower girl won't be wearing it too soon, she'll really appreciate it when she's older and it won't turn into junk or clutter later on.
Reply:i recieved a beautiful glass jewelery box as a flower girl when I was four... at 19 I still treasure it (and use it!). Get her something she can keep forever, just to remind her of her importance to you
Reply:I plan on taking my flower girls to Build a Bear because they can get all giddy and make what they want and it would be a fun day out for us.
Reply:A video of herself to give to her mom for a time capsule.
Reply:Get her a nice gold or silver necklace with a 'flower' on it, or something that you can put the date of your wedding and her 'position' in your group of bridesmaids. She may not 'remember' being your 'flower girl' but that necklace will be LOVED FOREVER because you CARE enough to get something nice for her even though she's 'too young to remember' ...
Reply:Get her a bracelet that her mom can put it back and keep for her when she gets older. Be sure to take a picture of her with the bracelet on and put it with the bracelet. She will cherish this even if she doesn't remember it.
Reply:Maybe a baby bracelet or a flowered head band to wear at the wedding?
Reply:a necklace or a photo frame.
Reply:I would suggest putting a photo album of the wedding and all pictures that you have taken with her included together for her, beings that she wont remember, but you also have to have something else for before the wedding either for her or her parents. my best suggestion for that would be something that could keep her entertained during the time that pictures are going on and the beginning of the reception before any "fun" in really happening. weather it is a toy piano, blocks, whatever she enjoys. the only other option that i can think of is a "special" seat for her. but she is still so young that she probably will not even realize that she has it. Good luck and congrats
Reply:Barbie has a flower girl doll. She is very cute and actually comes in a flower. She can open it and play with it or keep it as a keepsake.
Reply:I bought my flower girl several of the disney princess dresses, a tiara, wand, jewelry, etc. She was 2 and she got to wear one of the dresses to the rehearsal dinner and LOVED it...she showed off to everyone. If your 1 year old would understand that, go for it. Otherwise, you might want to get her something sentimental so that years from now she'll look back and say, "aww, i was a cute flowergirl!"
Reply:a teddy bear every little girl needs one plus you can get some cute ones for cheap!!!!!
Reply:give her a huge bow-kay of flowers that are of unique colors or something
Reply:yeah don't trip on the bride's ego !!

Bf losing insterest in me?
We get along very well on daily bases.
Yesterday was my birthday ( myfrist birthday with him) H e brought me no flowers/ No gift/No card. With tons of attidue he took me out to dinner. At dinner constantly he was staring at the girl at next table and making eye contact with her. Why is he so cheap even though he himself owns a restaurnte. last year on christimas he bought be also nohting.
My question for you is that....
Was he suppose to bring me a gift on my birthday or i am just thinking not right?.
Bf losing insterest in me?
I believe he was supposed to bring you something. They are special occasions where he is supposed to show his love in any way possible. I personally think his a cheap A** who doesn't like to spend money. Dump him. ( i hate cheap people)
Reply:not all cheapies are bad!!! Only misers are bad... Report It
Reply:Expect nothing and you will never be disappointed.
What you should be thinking about is why you are staying with a guy that has no interest in you. Relationships that begin with way will stay this way or get worse. You've already taught him by your acceptance that his actions are just fine. So you will continue to get nothing for Christmas and your birthday.
Reply:yes he should have bought you a gift and he sure as hell isnt suppose to be making goo goo eyes at some other chick...big red flag there..if hes doing that in front of you expecially..idk i wouldnt trust him if hes acting like that..DUMP HIM!!...while you still have some dignity left..you poor girl thats a load of crap for him to be treating you like that...
good luck and take care=)
Reply:Yes Hes Pose To Bring You A Gift.
But Maybe He Didn't Have Any Money To But Aleast He Took You Out That's Enough To Show That He Cares
But On The Other Hand He Shouldn't Have Been Looking At No One But You And You Should Have Brought That Up...!
Reply:I would be totally depressed if my bf didn't bring me at least flowers.. but he took you out to dinner.. BUT he stared at another girl?
Did you talk to him about it? What were his reactions? stop going out with him if he treats you like you're nothing special!
Reply:He obviously doesnt like you. Dump him. You should never allow anyone to treat you poorly on your bday nor should you tollerate your bf checking out another woman in front of you
Reply:Ok time to dump his sorry a** he's a total jerk and he doesn't care about you or treat you right, you need someone who is going to deserve you.
Reply:Of course he was, and yes the unfortunate truth is, yes he is loosing interest in you
sorry : (
Reply:It sounds like to me he is not interested. Yes he shouldve got you something. He probably did that on purpose so you could get mad and break up with him.
Reply:He should have if he could afford one, but his actions are sending you the message to move on and try some body else.
Reply:it is so obvious, he lost his interests in you already my dear child.
Get over it find someone who give his best for you. good luck !
Reply:He should have. I think you should stop showing much interest in him. Men like the chase. They want what they can't have. If he thinks he's totally got you, of course he'll get bored.
Reply:sorry sweetie, he's not interested in you. he's giving you his (albeit a total jerk way of doing it) brush off move.

Etiquette for thanking your realtor after you've finally found and bought a new home?
Is a sincere handwritten thank you note enough or is something more like flowers, a gift basket or gift card required? What's your experience been?
Etiquette for thanking your realtor after you've finally found and bought a new home?
a note is nice, keep in mind that this is their job and they are paid quite nicely for the work that they do, that's usually thanks enough.
If they did a good job for you, referrals are always nice as well.
Reply:You have already given a signed gift - the contract. Realtor should (if they have any manners) send be sending something to you.
I received a lovely set of gardening tools after I bought my house
My retired mother received a huge bouquet of flowers when she bought hers.
Reply:Generally,the Realtor brings YOU a gift,I guess in an attempt to remove the guilt from just having robbed you blind while having done very little in return for a huge commission.I would suggest a swift kick in the hind quarters,Realtors are the worst vultures in the business world,even worse than lawyers.
Reply:It's totally up to you. But keep in mind that the realtor usually gets a nice chunk of money for closing the deal with you already--which is thanks enough. He or she was just doing his/her job. The realtor sometimes will send you flowers or something, especially at holiday time, just so you don't forget him/her 'cause he/she wants you to come back when you decide to sell.
Reply:Gee, with the commission he is getting, he should be thanking you!
Reply:If you want to send a gift then you should send a gift. Even though it does seems like they didn't do much of anything. They helped you find the best house that suits you and personally I think that's worth a thanks. It takes time for them to search for the 'perfect' house for you. You could send them a bouquet of flowers, a fruit basket, or something as simple as a thank you card. Or you could go more extravagant with some type of gift card to a high end restaurant in town. The possibilities are endless.
Reply:The MONEY they get is their thanks! A sincere verbal "Thank You" is polite. If anything, the REALTOR should buy YOU a housewarming gift to show their thanks for your choosing THEM, when most people can find a new home themselves!
Reply:whilst a really nice thought and shows great manners, like said above this person made a shed load of money off of you, so a nice note would be best and save what it would cost for the flowers towards something nice for your NEW house.

Cheap Boyfriend?
( i want to hear from more people so I am reposting this question )
We get along very well on daily bases.
Yesterday was my birthday ( myfrist birthday with him) H e brought me no flowers/ No gift/No card. With tons of attidue he took me out to dinner. At dinner constantly he was staring at the girl at next table and making eye contact with her. Why is he so cheap even though he himself owns a restaurnte. last year on christimas he bought be also nohting.
My question for you is that....
Was he suppose to bring me a gift on my birthday or i am just thinking not right?.
Cheap Boyfriend?
Get rid of him.
Flowers or a small gift is a definite on a birthday, and I am talking that is the VERY least he could do.
My boyfriends in the past would always get me flowers and a gift of at least $20, plus dinner.
And the fact that he was staring at another girl, honey...say goodbye to him. There are plenty of men who will be interested in ONLY you. You are too good for someone who can't give you the love, affection, and attention that you deserve.
My used to be boyfriend, and now husband always brings flowers on my b-day, gives a small gift, and plans a special evening out for me. (It doesn't have to be this way, but heck...he sure did win me over, didn't he?)
And you know what? He has NEVER looked at another female in my presence. His eyes are glued to me....and I love that.
And you know what? There are more men out there like that, and you deserve one.
Good luck!
Reply:yep your boyfriend is forsure cheap! he didnt even give you a card thats low! and if he is he that stupid to be staring at another girl when your across from him and he knows its your birthday! you should dump him because in the end you are the one who is going to be hurt! No girl deserves that you need someone who is going to treat you right and not take advange of you! if it was me in this situation i would of dumped him last year!
Reply:If he really likes you then yeah he would have made your birthday special and given you lots of gifts.
Him looking at other girls is meaning that he may be losing interest in you and doesn't want to spend a lot on you if he is going to move on. : ( could be true
Reply:Umm i think you should dump him he is a CHEAPO and he was flirting with another girl!
Reply:u r thinking right at least something small...and him looking at another girl what's that all about...

Shall I leave my boyfriend?
I am very lonely with no friends and family. After years and years I found this man. Who i think is nice because we get along very well. But he must have sex while i dont want to.
Yesterday was my birthday ( myfrist birthday with him) H e brought me no flowers/ No gift. With tons of attidue he took me out to dinner.
My question for you is that....
1) Is sex a must in relationship or can someone wait for it till both ready or married?
2) Was he suppose to bring me a gift on my birthday or i am just thinking not right?.
Shall I leave my boyfriend?
He sounds like a jerk and if he is almost Demanding sex ...Get rid of him!! While sex is very important in a relationship....its supposed to be for couples who want to enjoy eachother When they are both ready ...not when only one person is ready .... Seriously, use your own judgement and i think you know what is best to do...If you feel like something isnt right..it usually isnt....He doesnt sound right to me..... And YES he should have gotten you a card..gift something special for your birthday...You are supposed to be someone special to him..and he isnt showing you that ...FInd someone worthy of your love.... Best wishes and Happy birthday!! You've got a friend
Reply:you should never expect a gift. although its a nice gesture, it isn't mandatory, however it shows that he isn't really that nice of a person. So depending on the kind of guy you want (maybe you do like the hardass personality nothin wrong with that), is your next choice =P.
sex isn't necessary, but it reduces stress quite a bit. however, if you dont want it. then you can wait...and say no.
Reply:1) Personally, I think sex is required for a strong and healthy marriage and I think people that wait until marriage are foolish. What if the person is a dead fish in bed?
2) Yes, I think your boyfriend should've given you some sort of gift as well. Perhaps if you were more enthusiastic in bed he might be more willing to buy you a nice gift.
Reply:yes offcourse it's important but make sure both you love and trust each other. Yes, i think he shouldve bought you a present. Your his gf and he loves you doesnt he? I would be mad if he didnt buy my something. Talk to him about and ask him what's on his mind. Its very important for you two to communicate to each other.
Reply:No, sex is not a must, and both people should definitely be ready.
There is no written rule that says that he HAS to bring you a present, but the fact that he didn't, tells me that he is a jerk. You should turn and run away from him.
Reply:dump his sorry a** sex is not a must you can have a great relationshhip without sex and yes he was supposed to bring you a gift its your birthday its kind of big if he really cared he would do it
Reply:Sex is just that "sex" if not married,if married it's indeed a need that you "want" to share and yes he should have bought you a gift!
Reply:Well if sex is all he wants than i think you should just leave him..its not right..its also not right that he didn't get you a gift for you birthday
Reply:Leave his dumbA S S
Seriously.....he "must have sex"?? Remind him that he has a set of hands and give him a bottle of lotion or something.
Reply:1. Or course is not everything!!!! There has to be so much more thant that.
2. Of course he was suposed to bring u a girft if he really wants to make u happy !!.
Reply:1) when both are ready or once they're married (for christain/catholics)
2)that depends on the person's romance ideas. but yeah he should have brought you gift on your bday
Reply:If that's the way you think, then do him a favor and leave him.
Reply:Yes, leave him. He is just a self centered jerk.
Reply:Sex can wait till Your ready, he should have gotten u a present for your birthday.
I would dump him
Reply:yes sex is a must in a realtionship
Reply:look if he really cares for u he wouldnt be forcing you and forced sex is (against your will) is rape...
goodluck

Reply:you should never expect a gift. although its a nice gesture, it isn't mandatory, however it shows that he isn't really that nice of a person. So depending on the kind of guy you want (maybe you do like the hardass personality nothin wrong with that), is your next choice =P.
sex isn't necessary, but it reduces stress quite a bit. however, if you dont want it. then you can wait...and say no.
Reply:1) Personally, I think sex is required for a strong and healthy marriage and I think people that wait until marriage are foolish. What if the person is a dead fish in bed?
2) Yes, I think your boyfriend should've given you some sort of gift as well. Perhaps if you were more enthusiastic in bed he might be more willing to buy you a nice gift.
Reply:yes offcourse it's important but make sure both you love and trust each other. Yes, i think he shouldve bought you a present. Your his gf and he loves you doesnt he? I would be mad if he didnt buy my something. Talk to him about and ask him what's on his mind. Its very important for you two to communicate to each other.
Reply:No, sex is not a must, and both people should definitely be ready.
There is no written rule that says that he HAS to bring you a present, but the fact that he didn't, tells me that he is a jerk. You should turn and run away from him.
Reply:dump his sorry a** sex is not a must you can have a great relationshhip without sex and yes he was supposed to bring you a gift its your birthday its kind of big if he really cared he would do it
Reply:Sex is just that "sex" if not married,if married it's indeed a need that you "want" to share and yes he should have bought you a gift!
Reply:Well if sex is all he wants than i think you should just leave him..its not right..its also not right that he didn't get you a gift for you birthday
Reply:Leave his dumbA S S
Seriously.....he "must have sex"?? Remind him that he has a set of hands and give him a bottle of lotion or something.
Reply:1. Or course is not everything!!!! There has to be so much more thant that.
2. Of course he was suposed to bring u a girft if he really wants to make u happy !!.
Reply:1) when both are ready or once they're married (for christain/catholics)
2)that depends on the person's romance ideas. but yeah he should have brought you gift on your bday
Reply:If that's the way you think, then do him a favor and leave him.
Reply:Yes, leave him. He is just a self centered jerk.
Reply:Sex can wait till Your ready, he should have gotten u a present for your birthday.
I would dump him
Reply:yes sex is a must in a realtionship
Reply:look if he really cares for u he wouldnt be forcing you and forced sex is (against your will) is rape...
goodluck

I am I wrong or just over sensitive? Male point view needed.?
I am new here so I will keep it short. My husband and I just had our 20th anniversary. (WE MARRIED YOUNG.) I was so looking forward to celebrating it! I REALLY want to know if I am over reacting so be brutaly honest with your reply. O.K. here it is, He only got me a card. no flowers, no gift, nothing. I was hurt by his lack of thoughtfulness. I was not expecting a "BIG" gift just a simple token. Let me say again, I was NOT expecting a major gift. The other thing is, everyone (Nosey friends) are calling to see what I recieved. When I say a lovely card, silence is on the other line. Then, a comment about what there husbands have given or done. It is silly how some women gage love by material things. I am just supprised he didn't put any thought in to it. I do have to admit, it got me thinking. Is it me being silly or should I say that I was sad because I was wanting to celebrate.. 20 years is something to be proud now a days. Men you won't hurt my feelings, Please reply.
I am I wrong or just over sensitive? Male point view needed.?
As a guy who has bought all kinds of presents for women I can say tht you are not over-reacting in the least...I certainly hope you let him know how it made you feel when that's all he got for you...perhaps he just didnt know how important this event was to you...
Reply:No... You are not being silly....That is a huge milestone...Try talking to him. Sometimes us men forget the little things, but it does not mean he does not love you. Forget about what others say and try to talk to him. After 20 years you need a lil spark. Hope everything gets better.
Reply:i think you are correct. maybe you should have gotten a gift for the both of you to share.
like a couple retreat to a spa followed by a nice dinner.
granted he should have thought of this but it may seem kinda gay to him...
.
Reply:seriously. He didn't mean to hurt you. We men just don't take things like that serious as women do. Your man needs to be a little more sensitive for the ladies. tell him how disappointed you are. He would learn in case of next time.
Reply:No that's ridiculous! 20 years is a milestone! 25 years is a landmark! Although I will ask, did you do anything to mark the importance of the day?? Its not entirely up to the man. Did you offer to make reservations at a great restaurant to celebrate? (It would be sweet and very romantic in a perfect world for the man to do this, but sometimes details don't occur to guys. if they assume you're on the same page they are, then thats good enough for them) Bottom line is yes, he should have done more than get you a card.
Reply:You are not being silly or greedy or anything like that. Do you guys have "loving" relationship usually? If so, he probably just didn't think this was nearly as big a deal as you did. If you guys aren't happy, this could be a sign to make some changes.

Is sex really the only good gift to give your guy on V-Day?
there is so much emphasis on what the guy should give the girl... jewlery, chocolate, flowers...What good gifts do guys desire? Or is sex it? LOL!
Is sex really the only good gift to give your guy on V-Day?
Well you can never go wrong with hot steamy chickn nuggs. Sometimes my beau Dr Don McRon desires fresh cut flowers from our back yard garden that overlooks the babbling brook. But what you should do is go get something hawt and steamy for your man, wrap it in tinfoil, microwave it, then give him the charred remains. Attach a card that says "You set my heart on fire" and your set! makes 3 servings.
Reply:it's not the ONLY good gift, but it is, however, the best gift
Reply:Mercedes S class is nice.
Reply:Good sex is not a gift one person gives to another - it is a gift shared that comes from love shared. If he sees it as a 'gift' or you do, someone is not equally invested in the relationship.
Reply:why would you give a guy a gift on V-day?
its not required, none expect it
Reply:Sex should never be JUST SEX! Make of night of fun, dinner, possibly a cute movie where you can spend the night in eachothers arms, whipped cream, strawberries chocolate sauce are all good ways to have fun! you could definately end with sex and laying in eachothers arms(even for a while if you have to go home)
Reply:well it aint all about sex but he will like it
Reply:Sex could ruin a perfect night. Find something that interests him and get him that. get him a book or cd or something like that. OR get him soemthing weird that would bewilder him
Reply:i'd say sex %26amp; sports... try them together - do it doggie style so that both of you can watch the game. he'll love it!
Reply:No, but it's certainly a welcome gift!
Reply:hell to the yes
Reply:sex is it. why do you think we give up all the useless junk on V-day!
Reply:If you're married, yes. If you're unmarried, try a nice card.
Reply:Listen if it works don't knock it
Reply:Sex is good, but the way to get to a guys' heart, is through his stomach - FEED HIM - buy him sweets/desserts. :)
Reply:I think guys would really enjoy sex, but why don't you try baking him something? Make some cookies for him. He'll know you put effort into making them, and what guy doesn't like cookies?

Ladies......whats a good idea for a 4 year anniversary gift?
for me to buy my girlfriend. its 4 years since our first date (it was a blind date). i need help thinking of a unique and meaningful gift. i am very bad at shopping and thinking of gifts for women, and i dont want to just give her flowers or a gift certificate or something like that.I'm already taking her out for dinner (back to the same spot as our first date) but i want to give her a gift too, whats some ideas of romantic gifts that you ladies would like if your man was gonna buy you an aniversary gift? ps: i,m not afraid to spend money.
Ladies......whats a good idea for a 4 year anniversary gift?
Do something from your heart. Are you at all a writer? Write her a poem, or a love note. How about a love note for each year you've been together and you can give her one when you start your date, one part way through dinner, one before dessert and one at the end of the date? Make each love note reminiscent of the fun times you have had in years one, two, three and four. At four years and still only a girlfriend, it might be time to be thinking engagement ring if you're ready. :) How about a unique photo album you have put together of photos of the two of you- you can do that at shutterfly.com and add your own notations. How about a charm bracelet with charms on it that are significant of the times you've had fun or places you've been together? I could go on and on... :)
Reply:A diamond or two
Reply:you should get her a diamond ring for $124 or get her a silver bracelet for $54. ($124 at kays jewlry) ($54 at walmart)
Reply:you should an amazing night, exquisite dinner, nice soothing desert, dance to mood music, with a waiter, and a dish washer so you can continue a nice night in bed. Then shell thank you. Also get her a nice peice of jewelry.
Reply:i think you should try to get her a purse. girls love that. I got my girlfriend a Coach purse from http://www.doiop.com/purse which normally costs like a lot for much much cheaper. she fell in love with it.
Reply:I love to get gifts from my DH that I know he has put thought into. The big question would be what does she like? If you know her favorites it makes it easier to get something special. What about concert tickets to see someone she loves but has never seen? Or tickets to a show on Broadway. A gift that you can wrap up is great, but something that makes lifetime memories is priceless!
Reply:Jewelry is always good!!! Maybe some type of pendant with a heart and diamonds or red rubies.
Reply:If you want it to be meaningful maybe a ring with an enscription. It doesn't have to be an engagement right or anything. Even a neclace. You can say anything you want or just put the date of your anniversary. I think that would be very special.
Or you could do something cute from a picture of both of you. For example you can blow it up and get it printed in black and white. Then add red (color of love) to some of the areas. Put a pretty frame around it and write something special on the back.
Reply:recreate your very first date.....
Reply:a ninja
Reply:well what i would like is a new car but that is just me maybe just spend time with her and treat her like a queen girls love that that kind of stuff
Reply:I have a couple of answers. But I think you should include a card that says something like "Meeting you was one of the best things I've ever done..." or some kind of thing like that or like a poem. You may think it's totally corny but some girls think that's really sweet and totally thoughtful.
For the present:
I have a couple of ways you can go:
Shiny- A heart locket with a picture of you and her or her name ingraved or something along that line!
If she has a favorite band buy you and her tix
Or... if she has a place that's really special to her take her there for a romantic picnic! That would be so cute!
I hope it works out!
Good luck!

Reply:You should give her something special...like a promise ring. Pick the stone that represents this month and make sure you tell her that when you give it to her. Then, give her some of her favorite flowers...in the bouquet let one of them be silk...and tell her you will love her until the last flower dies. I've always wanted some guy to do that for me... :)
Reply:take her to the first place you guys went on a date and make it all special, buy her a beautiful meaningful piece of jewelry like a promise ring or something like that. Have a hotel room ready and waiting for you guys and put rose petals everywhere light some candles. Be romantic, trust me we don't find it cheesy.
Reply:go diamonds...u can never go wrong with that
Reply:Since u said money is not a problem, you should plan a romantic getaway to somewhere like Hawii or even Europe. You can present her with the place ticket or something. My boyfriend did that and I thought it was so throughtful of him. Another thing you can do is get her Tiffany jewelry, like a little heart charm necklace. On top of those things i think you should still give her a bouquet of flowers, like when u go pick her up or something.

Gift for parents of the ring bearer and flower girls?
I was just wondering if I should give a gift to the parents of the child attendants in my wedding? The parents of the ring bearer are in the wedding, so they will already be getting gifts from us, but my flowers girls' parents are not... should I get them a gift to thank them for letting the girls be in the wedding? I didn't know if this was proper or not.
Gift for parents of the ring bearer and flower girls?
I was given a framed photograph by the bridal couple of my son and the two of them, when he was the ring bearer in their wedding, his father was a groomsman, he received a gift, but of course I was not expecting a gift. I was not in the wedding. It is a lovely gesture, but no, you are not obligated to give the parents of the flower girl a gift.

Bangladesh customs. Invited to someones home for lunch. Am I suppose to bring a gift?

Or you could just buy lots of choclolates/sweets/waffers for them.
Flowers are generally liked, but not so much valued as gifts by Bangladeshis.
Another out-of-the box idea could be learning a few Bangla sentnces and surprising them with those sentences. Example:
How are you: toomi kaymon aacho?
How is the family: baashar shaw-bye bhaalow ache?

Should I remind him about my birthday??? lol?
My 22nd birthday is next week and my husband never remembers my birthday (ever since we've been together and that's been for 5 years) - even last year on my 21st birthday when I was 7 months pregnant and had to work all day, he forgot - should I remind him this year or would that be totally rude? I always buy him a nice gift, flowers, and make a special dinner for him on his birthday and on our anniversary. I'm half tempted to just see if he forgets about it again and if he does then just say screw it and forget his birthday and Christmas and our anniversary too.
Should I remind him about my birthday??? lol?
No, do not take that course of action. The morning before your birthday, set a cake mix box, a can of frosting, and a box of birthday candles on the kitchen counter where he is sure to notice it. If he misses THAT hint, do not let him have any cake. (Double entendre intented.)
Good luck!

Reply:It's not rude to remind him as long as you do it polietly. Like say "so and so days until my birthday! i'm so excited". Then you are reminding him but it dosent sound like you are asking for gifts :)
Reply:maybe he has a plan, try to give a some reminders
Reply:Don't remind him directly...just help him remember by giving him hints.
Reply:I don't think it would be rude!
Reply:YES! Leave post-it notes everywhere reminding him. Fold over the corners of all the expensive stuff in the catalogues. Write it in the diary/on the calendar. Make a count-down-til-my-birthday wall chart. And send yourself some flowers on the day just to make a point! Then if you've gone over the top enough you can pass it of as a bit of a joke even though you mean it!!! PS.... Happy Birthday!
Reply:oh honey you need to dump him. if he cant memarize by now the date of your b-day,then obviesley he dont care about you that much!!

Reply:Yes, definately remind him. Maybe he's not so good with dates. When they forget we read a lot of negative emotions into that. If you remind him, he has no excuse!
Reply:oh yea remind him I tell my girl to remind about important dated, itI told her its not cause I don't care I just smoke too much nugs
Reply:i would remind him and make hime be aware after your birthday that he always forget . That way you still get you presents
Reply:I know this hurts you but a lot of people don't think of things like that, doesn't mean he doesn't love you as much as you love him,
you will have to decide what you want to do, I was never one to remind anyone, I wouldn't like anything he did if I had to remind him,wouldn't mean a thing to me, you are not me, what you decide will be right for you.
I wish you the best Birthday ever, hope he remembers.
Reply:don't worry about that kind of stuff, it's not important. just except the fact that he is a male (that translates to mean dumb@ss in language) and forget about it so long as he's good to you otherwise.
Reply:yes
Reply:Remind him, tell him what you want(give choices). My wife tells me all the time with a count down day by day, it helps me.
Reply:Men seem to forget birthday's easily...my dad has known me for 31 years now ...and still till this day forgets...i guess i'd just chalk it up as yep he's a man....maybe tell him something you are going to do on your birthday ...or would like to do..such as going out with your friends or going to lunch/dinner with him even...and see if he comes up with something then...sometimes we just have to accept men as they are....you can't change him
Reply:Don't remind him until the day has come. Then you can softly and pleasenty remind him on the day. He won't ever forget it. Happy Birthday! Your going to be 22!
Reply:Just ask him how he feels about sleeping with an older woman...and then forget his birthday
Reply:If you think he may forget, why set him up to fail your test? If you drop a hint you are setting him up to succeed . A hint also eliminates possible disappointment and regret. Now really which sounds like the more positive behavior, testing him or helping him in an issue you already suspect he may need help.

Should I remind him about my birthday??? lol?
No, do not take that course of action. The morning before your birthday, set a cake mix box, a can of frosting, and a box of birthday candles on the kitchen counter where he is sure to notice it. If he misses THAT hint, do not let him have any cake. (Double entendre intented.)
Good luck!

Just a few minutes ago a rake went through my friends mom's foot (also my neighbor). Our family went over there to help get it out, and she is now being taken to the emergency room.
What should I get her as a get well soon gift? Flowers? Pie?

Ouch!! Too bad!! Hope she will be okay. How about some flowers, a get- better- soon card and cook her some meals cause it's gonna be hard for her to get around for a few days.

Why my husband bugg me? i know he love me but then also he do like that why??????????
i got married on 18th dec. i know husband love me but.... he is far away for me and still buggs me. he send me gift, flowers but still sometime i feel that he bugg me. i asked him he said you are beautiful and i wanna grab your attention. but why dont he understand one thing that i am his wife.and he is only man in my life .
Why my husband bugg me? i know he love me but then also he do like that why??????????
take it while you can, one day you wake up and wish he still did that, keep rejecting him and soon enough he will stop bugging you and then direct his attention towards other women and then start having an affair, before you know it you end up divorced
Reply:Maybe he wants something from you or It's just that he is madly crazy in love with you, and you did say your far away why's that, probably that's why he's doing thesee things because he loves you and now that your far from each other he loves you even so much more.
Reply:MAybe that is the way your husband shows his love. EAch of us show our love in different ways.

Whats happening here?????
this is continuation of my last question about a girl. I will make long story short. Its been 5 to 6 weeks since we met. couple of weeks ago we went out (not as a date) and when we came back I handed her a gift (flowers and a book) and appriciated her friendship. Then she didnt talked with me for a week and I thaught that she was pissed off.. But few days ago she called me as return call for my earlier call and said that she was sorry that she didnt talked to me over the week and that she missed me. Now I dont know whats going on, does she really meant that or its just that she is being nice to me??????????......(girls please help)
Whats happening here?????
It's hard to tell at this point. She could just be being nice, but she could genuinely be sorry. You have no idea why she didn't call sooner; maybe something big came up. All you can do is wait and see what happens. I know it sucks not knowing, but all of the good things in life require patience.
Reply:Probably just being nice
Reply:If it took her that long to get back to you, she probably doesn't like you. Sorry, kiddo.
Reply:We are weird... Some more so than others. Maybe it scared her a little bit. There are a lot of maybes really, but if you like her then continue to spend time with her. Just don't get in a big hurry and maybe have a serious conversation about the feelings you each have.
Reply:hmmm, confusing. well, it could have been that you just surprised her unpleasantly by going too fast on her. she also could have been busy, so just check out her schedule without asking her, because she might lie to you. just keep being nice to her, but not like a boyfriend yet, and things might work out.
Reply:sounds like she thought it was a date, and was trying to follow some stupid traditional rules of dating. (what are those anyway?) but just tell her that you were intending for the gifts to be friendly. that should clear the air.
Reply:She was busy. She SAID she missed you and was sorry not to have been able to talk to you. What is the mystery? She likes you. Maybe just as a friend, but she is being sincere, otherwise she wouldn't call you at all.
Reply:She might have liked you but was just scared that you would change your mind about her. I'd give her another shot. If she's just being nice she won't go out with you forever.
Reply:If I were you I would just take her word for it. You don't really know much about her yet still, so she may have just been really busy. Just take it a day at a time and it will all unfold itself.
Reply:Ask her why she didn't talk to you for a week. Ask her if she really likes you. Just ask her. All she can do is say she only wants to be friends. At least then, you know and you can go from there.

my boyfriend sent flowers to me with chocolates and balloons for valentines but were having bit of a rough patch and i think that it was a gesture to cover things up which may work for some people but not on me.

What are some unique ideas for a wedding reception?
I am getting married in June, the service is outside with a gazebo, pond w/ a fountain, ect, then the reception is inside (it is at a country club). I am looking for some interesting ideas for decorations, gifts, flower girls and ring bearers (we are having 2 of each b/c they are just too cute). We want to do things differently, not the same traditional wedding you always go to...
What are some unique ideas for a wedding reception?
You have chosen the traditional time of year %26amp; place for June wedding, so too different would not fit. Choose small differences like your double flower girls %26amp; ring bearers. My daughter had 3 flower girls %26amp; 2 ring bearers, since they come in right before you they are sooo cute but needed to blend well or they will steal the show. She carried large bouqet of white tulips %26amp; bridesmaids carried balls of different colored roses - the tulips were outstanding. The centerpieces on tables were large candlebras with 10 votive candles. They never blew out %26amp; were different than usual flowers or glass bowls. Lots of people comment on how striking they were. We rented them at same place as tablecloths - we wanted color to match bridesmaids dresses %26amp; caterer did not have correct color. You may wanted to go to rental stores %26amp; see what they have different. She even gave trees to plant for gifts. It was unique %26amp; the price did not completely kill her Dad %26amp; I. LOL
Reply:When I lived in the Mediterranean we had this huuuuge garage under our villa, where we had at intervals "theme parties". I planned a "Halloween theme" at that time of year.... or a "Spring Awakening" theme, where people dressed up as something that related to the topic. I remember one couple came dressed up, the woman in a "S;pring Daffodil" kind of outfit, and her husband came as a "spring onion" which was pretty hilarious. We had a Neptune Theme one time, where the food was all about seafood and we had the area decorated with sand, seaweed, driftwood and that kind of thing.
We had so much fun with those and it makes me think along those lines for you to do. Think of a theme that you can associate either with that time of year... or summer in general.... or perhaps even about the "life cycle".... or something that symbolizes the stages of life, with all its ups and downs, and partnership and sharing that kind of thing. Even something that reflects the personality of the both of you, or something that sort of identifies you with those who know the two of you. Anything that would allow you to reflect your theme in the food, the wine, the decor, the bridesmaids' outfits and the music at the reception. Anyway, you get the general idea. Hope this might get your creative juice flowing LOL

Reply:I did things a bit differently. My groomsmen ushed in the grandparents and then stood at the front and waited on the bidesmaids. My flower girl and junior bridesmaid were seated so they werent a distraction. I offered guestes guest boutineers (well had someone). We played Signed, sealed delivered when we walked out. We also had a dessert buffet instead of serving a meal and we didnt have a guest book. We had a wishing well instead, with a sign that said. "weddings are more than rings and tossed rice, so grab a pen and write some advise".

When should one bring a hostess gift?
I have been invited to quite a few holiday parties this year. They include large, catered fancy affairs, festive house parties, ladies' teas at country club venues, and intimate dinner parties (about 10 guests). I generally bring small hostess gifts or flowers to the smaller personal events, and a bottle of wine to the dinners, but I wonder whether it's appropriate to bring a bottle of wine to the larger, more formal catered parties? Is it ok to arrive empty-handed at the holidays? The hosts certainly aren't throwing the parties with an expectation of gifts or contributions (we're on the "mature" side of 40) but I don't want to appear boorish. Thoughts?
When should one bring a hostess gift?
If you are going to a party at someones home it is always nice to bring a gift for the host or hostess. You can bring flowers, wine, or something more personal such as an ornament if it is a holiday party. If you are going to a party held art a banquet hall or venue no gift is required but a thank you card after the fact (hand written) is always a nice touch. Enjoy and Good luck
Reply:a plant would be better for a home gathering
wine is always a great gift to the host!
but so is a plant .. or a gift card!
gifts are not nessarry but it's a nice jester!
Reply:You have the right idea for the other parties, for a catered party I would bring something directed more towards the host like a box of candy, or candle, something not meant to be shared at the party.
Reply:I would just bring a hostess gift to gatherings at people's homes or intimate gatherings (like the ladies tea) hosted by an individual. For large catered events, like an office party, it is not necessary to bring anything.
Reply:For home parties, yes; for a party thrown at a restaurant or hall, then no.
Reply:It's ok to arrive empty handed. I don't think a food item is good because the hostess might feel compelled to serve it and it might not fit with the menu. What is always appropriate, though, is a nice thank you card afterward thanking them for inviting you and how much fun you had and that you look forward to seeing them soon. If you are a "group" then all of you probably will be recipocating with a party of your own and that could get a little expensive trying to bring something to everyone's party. So, go, enjoy, and send a very nice thank you card afterward, even if you don't enjoy it.

Why do you think?
Why Etiquette and Tradition Still Matter when planning?
i just want people onpions on things such as.
-save the date cards
-things to aviod at the wedding and during the planning
-wedding favors
-picking attendents
-in-laws from hell
-gifts
-flower girl r ring bearers
-father walking bride down the isle
-invitations
-also why if brides are not supoosed to asume they are getting gifts do guest expect us to do registrys.
-unity candels and sand
also i am just curious as to what family traditions you are bringing into your weddiing..
Why do you think?
-save the date cards-----Waste of money!
-things to aviod at the wedding and during the planning-----Making a Huge deal out of it and spending a ton of money
-wedding favors-----Do your guest really want cookie cutter? Just give them Candy, who doesnt LOVE candy!
-picking attendents----Should be those who will support your marriage
-in-laws from hell----Glad i'm not getting them :)
-gifts-----Ok but who wants 4 toasters? MONEY PLEASE :)
-flower girl r ring bearers-----cute if you can deal with them
-father walking bride down the isle------a body to lean on
-invitations-----shouldn't spend alot on, 99% of the people will throw them away in 6months
-also why if brides are not supoosed to asume they are getting gifts do guest expect us to do registrys------You get gifts
-unity candels and sand-----A nice way to put fire together...lol
Reply:Where I'm from, no one uses save the dates, the only place I ever heard of them was here on Answers.
Wedding favors - not necessary, but a nice touch. Something consumable is good.
Attendants are for both the bride and groom. So you have his sister as a bridesmaid; he can have a good male friend of yours as groomsman. Choose people who support you and you love from the heart, not for what they can do for you.
There are no inlaws from hell, just lovely people who raised the man I love.
Gifts - didn't honestly even think of them til they started coming, had no registries. We chose to host a lovely wedding to have family and friends celebrate with us. We got wonderful gifts - from Tupperware to sheets and towels, to a full set of china.
We didn't have a flower girl or ring bearer. However, if you have them, have them be from ages four to 10.
My father died two years before we got married. I had asked my mom to walk me up the aisle, but she didn't want to. I didn't want to walk alone. So my husband and I walked together, and it was the BEST thing to do ever. Years later, found out it was an old tradition in our religion/culture because the couple getting married should be mature individuals who give of themselves, coming together to marry.
Invitations - totally personal taste.
Didn't do unity candle nor sand ceremony. Not needed, not a religious element.
We had a big Ukrainian wedding, following traditions of our culture and religion. One important one is going to the parents' home prior to the ceremony to get the blessing of the parents and siblings, then everyone goes together to the church.
Here are some other elements of the ceremony. Ours was in the Ukrainian language.

The crowning is very special.
I think etiquette and tradition matter because the bride and groom are hosting the wedding - for the guests to witness the vows, then to celebrate with them at the reception. Having things done a certain way, with guests in mind, makes everyone feel more comfortable.
Reply:I think that in these times the women are the ones who want the tradition and etiquette. They are looking for the dream wedding and for it to go well and without a hitch so they can remember a day of happiness from the very beginning of their mariage, hoping that it will last forever. Also the keeping of things for long-lasting memories to be rekindled and for the respect from the wedding party as well as the people who attended it like the saving of things so that a Thank You card can be sent with the exact description of what the gift was so that they can place the gift with the face of the person who gave it is more sentimental and more personal that way.

Reply:Save the date cards- i think they should only be used if you have many people coming from out of town that will need the extra time to plan a trip to your wedding, if you arent having alot of out of towners, there is no need, save the money and put it towards somthing else.
During the wedding-IF you are have a cd of music playing REMEMBER to try it out on the system during rehersal, we had a burnt CD and it didnt work so we had to make another one. Do the same for the reception if your having a dj, make sure his version of the song you picked is the RIGHT one.
Invitations- dont spend a ton of money on them, people just throw them away
Attendants-dont have an outragous amount like 10 BM and 10 GM with 5 FG and 2 RB it will just drag out the ceromony and make you have to spend more money on gift, after all the guests are there to see YOU get married, not your friends all dressed up.
Registry-Register at two or more popular stores with a wide variety of price ranges that way people with less of an income will be able to buy you something. And dont think that it is looked down upon to register, even famous people register and lord knows they dont need help with purchasing items for their home.
Unity Candle/Sand-Unless your getting married out side or the beach has some sort of sugnificance to you and your fiancee, stick to the candle.
I know you will get tons of advice from both sides of the family, just try to take it in stride and listen just to make them happy, you dont have to follow any of their advice. Remember that this is you and your husbands day. And if should be what you want after all you will be the one that will remember every detail you will have all the memories.
Congrats!
Reply:Hi. I'm not quite sure I understand you question, but I will go down your list and give you my thoughts.
First of all.....etiquette never goes out of style. Anyone that says "get with the times" is not using common sense as far as I'm concerned. I'm not talking stuffy Queen Mum etiquette, I just mean simple common courtesy etiquette.
~ save the date cards: A a newer tradition and kind of nice. Letting people know your engaged and giving a little "heads up" on the wedding date. These are fine, IMO and I like them!
~ things to aviod at the wedding and during the planning:
Avoid (and terrible etiquette too) is anything "money grubbing" like the dollar dance or "wishing well."
~ wedding favors: a total waste unless it's something edible like chocolates or mints. NOT "traditional"....something that the bridal industry has thought up to get brides to spend more money.
~ picking attendants: don't feel that you need to pick every friend that you have ever had. I absolutely hate huge bridal parties. I think it's best to have 5 or less. And, as far as "tradition"....it doesn't HAVE to be a friend. Don't forget family!
~ in-laws from hell: Nothing you can do about that! My suggestion....move far away from them!!!
~ gifts: It is fine to register for gifts and you can register at however many stores you want! Just don't duplicate the same things on each registry....otherwise you will get doubles or triples. DO NOT make any mention of where you are registered (or include little cards) on (or in) the wedding invitation. This is a big etiquette no-no. You can, however, include registry information in the bridal shower invitation.
~ flower girl and ring bearers: OK, but don't have real little ones. Best to have them between the ages of 5-7.
~ father walking bride down the aisle: very traditional. But not needed either. Most guests understand if you come from a family where the father was absent. Some girls have their brother or another male relative. Some have their moms! It's really anything goes now a days on this issue. Some brides prefer to walk down the aisle alone. There is nothing wrong with that either!
~ invitations: The only etiquette again is to not mention anything about your registry on the wedding invitation. And by NO MEANS include a cute little poem saying that you have everything so what you really want is money (even if that is the truth!) Mail invitations 8 weeks before the wedding. Do not invite anyone to the wedding that you do not want to also invite to the reception.
~ also why if brides are not supoosed to asume they are getting gifts do guest expect us to do registries: It's fine to have a registry. I think what most people mean is to not expect that everyone will bring a gift. I have never gone to a wedding, though, and NOT brought a gift. To be honest, I think it would be extremely rude to not bring a gift or a card with money.
~ unity candle and sand ceremony: Another waste as far as I'm concerned. Again, these are ideas invented by the bridal industry to get you to spend more money.
That's it! My thoughts on etiquette and traditions. Good luck!
Reply:1. Save the dates I don't find are terribly necessary unless you have a lot of out of town guests. They just seem like a waste of money.
2. I think that it still plays a big role in planning and actual events at the wedding. I still think about all the faux pas during the event, not greeting everyone. Not dancing all my families tradtional dances...
3. Wedding favors. I hate some of the current trends like candy bars. And I hate how everyone is saying only edible favors, I like to have a nice memento of a wedding. I don't think of it as crap but rather nice memories.
4. When picking attendants I always think you should stick to family. You don't want to look back on your wedding photos and notice that you don't know/speak to any of those friends anymore. Family is always family. And I don't approve of calling or emailing for it, face to face is appropriate.
5. I know that in-laws aren't always nice. But still I think having respect never goes out of style. Not just for in-laws for everyone. Even if someone does not show you respect I try to show them respect, even if I do fail sometimes.
6. I really am not expecting many gifts. I think sometimes people forget that gifts are quite optional instead they expect it.
7. Flower girls and ring bearers I think are great if you have close relatives in the age. But really I think its terrible when people invite kids to their wedding they don't know well just so they can have one.
8. Well registry's are only expected by those who want to give gifts. The ones that don't wouldn't be thinking about it.
9. I don't like candles or sand or roses. I understand its ceremonial, or symbolic. But to me its just a way to elongate a ceremony. I can't stand sitting there watching people pour sand together.
10. Father walking down the aisle. I hate the stupid feminist that go on about being treated like property... blah blah. Its a nice tradition if you have a male figure to walk you down.
11. Invitations. I disagree about make them simple and cheap because people will just throw them out. When I receive a well written beautiful invitation it sets a much better tone for someones wedding then something they throw together sloppyly, if I see the cheap invite honestly sometimes I don't want to go at all. Don't get me wrong I have seen some very nice DIY invites, and some very sloppy company made ones.
We are actually having two different weddings. My fiances family is hindu and their ceremony is very diffrent, as are their customs. So the week before we are having a smaller Hindu wedding with all the trimmings. And then a big 200+ wedding the following saturday with more american elements.
Reply:I am not a huge fan of etiquette. Like there are some things that you just dont do, because it would be rude or offensive. But some etiquette is just rediculous. There are etiquette police out there making rules and you just wonder where some of it comes from.
I dont think tradition should matter in this day and age. Why wear a white gown if you dont want to? On the other hand, why not wear a white gown if you are pregnant. You are still a bride, go for it.
As far as registries go, I see why people do them but to me they have always seemed rude. I cant understand why so many people think having a honeymoon registry is soooo wrong, and yet having a registry where they dictate to people what they want and how much to spend and what colour, brand etc....how is that not rude? What happened to being grateful for any kind of gift?
Unity candles? I always thought that was a catholic thing. Why are other people doing it these days.
Invites shouldnt be as strict and people stress far too much over them....now with so many parents divorced, it is impossible to make it look and sound perfect , so just put the neccessary details on them and dont stress.
People stress over so called etiquette which is just rules "someone" made up.
As long as the wedding is nice and original and makes the couple happy and gives them so many wonderful memories, who cares about the etiquette police. Do what makes you happy.

Reply:Where I'm from, no one uses save the dates, the only place I ever heard of them was here on Answers.
Wedding favors - not necessary, but a nice touch. Something consumable is good.
Attendants are for both the bride and groom. So you have his sister as a bridesmaid; he can have a good male friend of yours as groomsman. Choose people who support you and you love from the heart, not for what they can do for you.
There are no inlaws from hell, just lovely people who raised the man I love.
Gifts - didn't honestly even think of them til they started coming, had no registries. We chose to host a lovely wedding to have family and friends celebrate with us. We got wonderful gifts - from Tupperware to sheets and towels, to a full set of china.
