Wedding cakes with styleBy Tresa Erickson Feature Writer

When you think of a wedding cake, what comes to mind? Three tiers of vanilla cake sandwiched between plastic columns? Lots of thick, white frosting and pale pink or yellow rosettes? A plastic bride and groom sitting on top? Today more and more couples are choosing a wedding cake with a bit more style. Cakes also come in a variety of shapes, sizes and flavors.

Multi-f lavored cakes. If you have several favorite f lavors and you are having a hard time selecting just one for your cake, this option is ideal. Try choosing a different f lavor for each layer of your cake. Or ask the baker to insert a cream filling in one of the layers and preserves in the other. You can even choose a dif-ferent f lavor of icing, like white chocolate or strawberry cream.

Unusually shaped cakes. Oval, square, rectangular, hexago-nal—you name it, and you can

have it. You can also mix and match shapes and sizes to create an unusual cake. For a modern cake, select oval layers for the bottom and middle, and a heart layer for the top. Choose a large square for the bottom, a slightly smaller square for the middle and an even smaller square for the top. Then ask the baker to stack them on top of each other, and voila ... a stack of presents. After they are iced, the presents can be tied together with a bow of sugared fruit.

Colored cakes. The icing on your cake does not have to be white, nor do the rosettes have

to be pastel. You can have choc-olate icing with red rosettes, or vanilla icing with a touch of lemon and tiny purple rosebuds. You can even match the colors of the icing on your cake to the col-ors of your flowers, bridesmaids’ dresses or decorations at the re-ception. Just make sure you take a color swatch to your baker.

Designer cakes. Wedding cakes don’t have to be plain. Add a unique touch to your cake with fresh fruit or flowers. For a stun-ning look, ask the baker to put a single rose on top or a cascade of lilies down the side. If you prefer something a bit sweeter, toss on

some frosted nuts or chocolate candies. Bring in a photo of your gown and have the baker copy the pattern onto your cake.

Personalized cakes. Feeling sentimental? Find a photo of your parents’ or grandparents’ wedding cake and have the baker copy it. Then serve the first slices to your parents or grandparents at the reception. If you have extra layer cakes, find good photos of you and your fiancé, and have them trans-ferred to the cakes. Choose an unusual topper, like two plastic gold wedding rings, or have your and your groom’s initials inter-twined in icing.

You can have just about any fla-vor and size of cake you want, and you can customize it to meet your needs and wants. If you are having an intergalactic wedding, you can order a cake that looks like a spaceship. If you are having a Christmas wedding

with a French f lair, you can or-der a traditional French holiday cake buche de noel. If you would like to follow the Bermuda wed-ding cake tradition, you can or-der a tiny tree for your cake top-per and then plant it in your yard to signify the growth of your marriage. With just a little cre-ativity, you can have the wed-ding cake of your dreams.

Brides and grooms looking for signature wedding details that won't break the bank can make an impression by inviting a guest-of-honor that everyone is sure to remember: their pet.

Tips for including pets in your weddingPet f i nder.com, t he la rgest online database of adoptable pets a nd nu mber-one pet-related site in the country, offers the following tips for adding a furry friend to the bridal party:

• Make sure your ceremony and reception locations allow pets before finalizing your plan.

Do you have an “easily-excit-able” pooch? Does your dog love

table scraps? Many pets may not handle large crowds and intense situations well.

• Know your pet before mak-ing the decision to include

them in your special day. You should consider tailoring your wedding plans to fit your pet’s needs, too.

• Take photos with your dog be-fore the wedding or on a dif-ferent day. Animals can some-

times be like children in photo sessions – they don't always have the best attention spans.

Wildflowers, antiques and pies add rustic charm to a wedding brunch

By Deborah Conway Feature Writer

They met about four years ago, when Sarah VanDer Linden ap-plied for a teaching position at the Highlands International School, high in the Andes Mountains in the city of LePaz, Bolivia. Prior to being sent overseas, she was required to attend a training session in Memphis, Tennessee. Scott Cunningham, an admin-istrator at Highlands, was sent to Memphis to meet the new staff.

When they became engaged, they decided to get married near Sarah’s hometown. Although Sarah grew up in New Gloucester, Scott, who lived in Texas and Nigeria, had never set foot in Maine until a few weeks before their July 14 nuptials.

“The hardest part about planning a wedding from Bolivia,” said Scott, “was not being able to see what we were committing to. But the logistical difficulties of planning a wedding from afar helped us focus on developing a healthy relationship ... and Sarah’s mom helped a lot.”

A friend sent photographs to Sarah of f lowers at Pineland, and the inspiration for their country-style wedding came from the pallet of colors they saw in those Maine wildflowers. The mauves, periwinkles and creamy f lorals found their way into Sarah’s bridesmaids’ dresses, and her flower girl wore a dress the color of dark lilacs.

Although Sarah’s wedding dress, purchased online, was white, her “something old” included a pair of soft, dusty rose shoes that she had previously worn when she served as maid of honor for a dear friend.

Scott wore a charcoal gray suit with a “bright blue tie that he had made in Bolivia.” His groomsmen wore blue suits with burgundy ties.

“We wanted something outdoors,” said Sarah, and so the wedding took place in Picnic Grove at Point Sebago Resort on the shore of Lake Sebago. Although the setting was casual and rustic, the ceremony was traditional.

According to Scott, “Even though it was outside, we wanted the seriousness of our vows to be ref lected in the ceremony. Generally, we’re both fairly casual people, so we wanted to make [the reception] a more casual celebration.”

The tables in the Grove were laid with cloths matching the colors of the wedding party and decorated with canning jars, buckets, and bottles filled with wildf lowers picked and arranged by a friend.

Family photographs in rustic and antique frames depicting their youths, courtship, and parents’ and grandparents’ weddings decorated tables, trees and two antique ladderback chairs. More photographs were hung with clothespins on twine strung along a fence at the edge of the Grove.

Rather than a traditional guest book, guests were invited to record their thoughts with permanent marker on a beautiful

wooden tray created by a Bolivian woodworker and set with inlaid Bolivian tiles.

“Rather than having something that we put on a shelf or in a chest and never look at,” said Scott, “this is something that we will look at and use almost every day.” Small Bolivian tiles attached to magnets, similar to the tiles in the tray, were taken home by guests as wedding favors.

A n a nt ique tr unk, or ig ina l ly ow ned by Sa ra h’s great-grandmother, was set out to collect wedding gifts, and an old wine box was used for cards.

The wedding took place at 10 a.m., and a country brunch was prepared by Ruth York and the chefs at Point Sebago Resort. The menu included eggs, waff les, potatoes, sausages, petite sandwiches, punch, iced tea, and coffee.

In addition to one small traditional wedding cake decorated with fresh f lowers, desserts included raspberry and blueberry coffeecakes and strawberry rhubarb, peach, apple and triple-berry pies, all of which were baked by Heather Keach of Heather’s Bakery. The desserts were set upon different-sized wicker baskets turned upside down, giving the delicious display both height and depth, as well as a rustic look.

After the wedding and reception in Maine, the couple celebrated with family in Texas. Having been kept in the dark as to honeymoon plans, Scott surprised Sarah with a honeymoon trip to the Dominican Republic.

“Our wedding was everything that we imagined and more.” Several weeks later, the new Mr. and Mrs. Cunningham found themselves heading home to LePaz, Bolivia, where, said Sarah, “We're busy making house ... cleaning out a bachelor pad and making a home.”

Why attend a bridal showcase?

Most girls grow up dreaming about their wedding day. So when that magical moment happens and prince charming slips a ring on your finger you immediately beam with excitement. It has finally happened ... you are getting married. This should be a piece of cake, right? Then reality sets in, and the stress of planning can get in the way of the excitement. Bridal shows are a great option for any bride-to-be. Whether you know exactly what they are looking for, or need help generating ideas, this is one stop you do not want to miss.

Wedding shows: What to expectGo ahead; be picky about your wedding plans because you deserve the wedding you have always dreamed about. So whether you are looking to solidify major details such as selecting your ceremony or reception site or all those finer details such as decorations and invitations, bridal shows offer you a one-stop shopping experience. Especially now with gas prices out of control, why not spend an afternoon collecting all your wedding information instead of hours, days, or even weeks driving to every bridal shop, f lower store, and photography studio in and out of state.

Bridal shows are designed to bring all of the magic of wedding planning under one roof. You can expect to see all sorts of bridal companies, including: photographers, DJs, reception facilities, caterers, cake makers, dress shops, tuxedo rentals, videographers, limos, hair dressers, makeup artists, jewelry companies, invitation designers, florists, musicians, gift registries, party suppliers, travel agents, and much more.

Make the most of your visit to the bridal show by using the opportunity to really interview possible candidates you still need to book. Do your research before the show and bring a list of questions to ask. Be sure to bring your groom and anyone else who will be involved in the decision-making process. You will be able to compare prices and products, personalities of the consultants, samples of their work, and even make reservations that day. With any luck, you can get some of your wedding plans out of the way.

But be aware that some service providers require a deposit upon reservation. So take your time and talk to everyone, and make sure that you have your checkbook ready in case you find the perfect fit.

Don’t be afraid to ask for referrals or a list of previous customers from the wedding vendors you are considering. Then check out those references thoroughly. If a company refuses to provide a list, or says they do not have references available, proceed with caution. Make sure to view several samples of their work, and only if you feel completely comfortable should you book their services.

How better to help get your wedding details underway than by receiving free gifts? Bridal shows offer couples the opportunity to win valuable door prizes sometimes worth thousands of dollars. To make registering for those prizes easy, bring along return address stickers so that you do not have to fill out numerous entry slips.

Finally, most bridal shows host a fashion show towards the end of the afternoon. It is a great chance to see different styles of dresses and tuxedos in action. And remember, organizing your wedding can be a huge job, but with the assistance of services such as bridal shows, it cuts down on some of the work. So arm yourself with your most trusty girlfriends and head to the next bridal show. Make sure you go with an open mind, and do not forget your address labels.

You’re gett ing married in a few months, and unlike some of you r f r iends, you va lue convention and have planned a ver y tradit ional wedding.

The importance of music at your weddingEverything is all set, including the music for the ceremony and reception. You can’t wait for that first dance. You even managed to convince your fiancé to enroll in a dance class so the two of you can glide across the f loor with ease. Of course, you want to do the first dance the traditional way, so here is a reminder of who dances with whom during that event. During the f irst dance, the bride and groom traditionally take to the f loor

alone and dance to their favorite song. After a few bars of music, the father of the bride cuts in on the groom to dance with his daughter, while the groom asks the mother of the bride to dance. The number of couples on the dance floor now numbers two.

The groom’s father then joins the couples on the dance f loor, with the father of the groom cutting in on the father of the bride to dance with the bride

a nd t he g room a sk i ng t he bride’s mother to dance; then the father of the bride cuts in on him to dance with his wife. The number of couples on the dance floor now numbers three.

At some point, the groom’s parents will dance with each other and exchange partners with the bride’s parents, while the best man dances with the bride and the groom dances with the maid of honor. Finally, the entire wedding party will make their way onto the dance f loor and the rest of the guests will be invited to join them.

Traditionally, this is how the first and sometimes the second dances go. Keep in mind that you can switch it up. You can dance one song entirely with your groom, the next with your parents and the last with your

wedd i ng pa r t y. For g uest s itching to get onto the dance f loor, you might want to limit the initial dances to one or two, and to ensure everyone knows

where they should be during those dances, you might want to have the DJ announce the exchange of partners.

Once everyone is on the dance floor, you can have various spe-cial dances. You can have a dol-lar dance, during which anyone who dances with you and the groom donates a dollar or more toward your honey moon or some other purpose.

You can also have an anniver-sary dance, where all married couples get out on the dance floor and leave as instructed until the couple that has been married the longest remains. The options for dancing at a wedding are lim-itless. Don’t be afraid to shake things up a bit after you have completed the traditional dances.

• If your dog has a favorite bed or perch, you can keep it right up at the front near the altar. That way, he’l l know right away where his “spot” is, and will probably stay put throughout the ceremony.

• At the reception, you might consider a pet-safe wedding cake for your dogs to munch on, or even matching keepsake water bowls for your and your partner’s dogs and cats.

• If you have a lot of pets, or plan on inviting any guests with especially sociable furry friends, think about having an animal zone at the reception – making space for everything from birdcages, to cat trees, to a small fenced-in dog run (if the reception is outside).

• A nd i f you do dec ide to welcome a large number of animal guests at your party, it’s probably a good idea to hire a dog sitter or animal wrangler to keep an eye on them. That way, you spend no time worrying, and all your time celebrating.

• A n o t h e r f u n i d e a i s t o include persona l i zed pet-themed gifts in your guests’ goody bags – and there is no shortage of specialty animal swag ava i lable across t he cou nt r y, a nd on t he web. Such treats as personalized puppy shirts, bone-shaped frames, or small bags of high-quality birdseed wil l make

your guests and their pets feel special.

Of course, you can always ride in on your horse, wear a snake around your neck, or use your several hamster wheels as cen-terpieces. But whether you go for something romantic, whim-sical, weird, subtle, or totally over-t he-top, your wedding planning should be a reflection of you, your partner, and the life you’re building together with the people and pets you love. Plan whatever arrangements will make you the happiest.

Above all, remember this: just like that dreaded seating chart, a little careful preparation for your pets goes a long way to making your special day relaxed and memorable.

The BEST

By Doris A. Black Feature Writer

After choosing your wedding gown, look for bridesmaid gowns.

The most common complaint of br idesma ids is t hat t he bride selects a cost ly dress inappropriate for any other occasion, thereby dooming it to spend the rest of eternity in the back of a closet or sold for pennies at a garage sale. The wise bride pursues bridesmaid

Select bridesmaids' dresses to fit wedding themegowns from the perspective of the women she has chosen to stand by her side – after all, it is the bridesmaids who typically pay for the gowns.

In Julius Caesar’s time, it was customa r y for ever yone in the wedding part y to dress the same. It was believed that demons would descend upon t he br ida l couple, causi ng mayhem, so by dressing alike, t he demon w ou ld n’t f i nd the bridal couple. Worr ying about demons is no longer a problem, but unti l recent years the trend has continued.

Bridesmaid dresses do not have to be identical; as a matter of fact, very few dress designs fit a l l women equally. Because everyone’s financial situation is different, it is now appropriate for each bridesmaid to select t heir ow n gow n, fol low ing guidelines set by the bride. This allows the bridesmaid to spend within her budget.

As the bride, your main concern is the overall appearance and tone of the bridal party. You’ll want coordinated styles and col-ors, not a mishmash of designs that look more like pieces to a

jigsaw puzzle. Start by consider-ing color. You’ll want the women in your party to be comfortable wearing their gown and looking their loveliest, so choose a color or a combination of colors or tones that will flatter them.

Consider the setting of the wed-ding when choosing color. For an indoor wedding, note the col-ors of the walls or room decora-tions. For an outdoor wedding, know what, if any, plants will be blooming at the time of your wedding, so you can plan to co-ordinate with your surround-ings. You might even consider the little black dress which is flattering and formal.

Once you have chosen a color or range of colors, decide on dress length. Floor-length dresses are appropriate for the most formal weddings, but they don’t offer many opportunities to be worn again. Mid-length dresses offer bridesmaids more versatility and can be equally elegant.

Style is the next factor to con-sider. Do you want clean, simple lines or frilly lace and sequins? What type of fabric would you prefer? Sleeve length is impor-tant, too. All dresses should have sleeves of similar length. Short, long, spaghetti straps – it is up to you to decide.

Accessories are another impor-tant consideration. The brides-maids don’t all have to wear the same style of shoe, but they should be the same color. Jewel-ry should be kept to a minimum. For a coordinated look, some brides elect to give their brides-maids matching necklaces as a token of gratitude.

Once all the decisions are made, make a list of the characteristics you’d like the bridesmaids to look for when choosing a gown. Find an example of the dress style you like in a magazine or book to give the ladies some idea of what to look for.

Tr y to prov ide sma l l color and fabric swatches that the br idesma ids ca n ta ke w it h them when selecting a gown. Give the bridesmaids tips on where to look for the best deals. Once they’ve selected a dress, they’ll need to show it to you for approval, so be sure to tell them to ask if the gown is returnable before purchasing it.

If you must have matching dresses, purchase them from shops t hat w i l l g ive you a group discount of 20 percent or more. Consignment shops are another alternative for locating matching gowns, but it may be difficult to find the color and sizes you need. Check w ith rental stores for gowns.

Br idesma id dresses do not need to be special ordered. Many of today’s ready-to-wear manufacturers are producing beautiful, f lattering gowns in all styles and colors appropriate for a wedding or any number of other occasions. Talk to your bridesmaids and give them the option of buying off-the-rack. They will thank you for it.

Top 10 honeymoon destinations for 2013Each of these honeymoon destinations were rated a “10” by honeymooners who voted on ro-mantic settings, top hotels and resorts, variety of adventures, good food, and something extra that’s unique to each place. Below is the list of the 10 best and most romantic honeymoon destinations for 2013 where you can enjoy your honeymoon vacations to the fullest.

Bora Bora

It is perfectly possible to spoil oneself in one of the incredibly luxurious high-class resorts and spend the savings of a lifetime in a few days. Nonetheless, a bit of planning ahead can allow enjoyment of the majestic scenery with a tight-er budget. Keep in mind that in any case Bora Bora is a tremendously pricey destination. Ev-erything (catering and activities) ranges from “expensive” to “indescribably expensive.”

Bora Bora is an island in the Leeward group of the Society Islands of French Polynesia, an “Overseas Country” financially assisted by France in the Pacific Ocean. The island, located about 140 miles northwest of Papeete, is sur-rounded by a lagoon and a barrier reef.

In the center of the island are the remnants of an extinct volcano rising to two peaks, Mount Pahia and Mount Otemanu, the highest point at 2,385 ft. The original name of the island in the Tahitian language might be better rendered as Pora Pora, meaning “First Born”; an early tran-scription found in 18th- and 19th-century ac-counts, is Bolabolla or Bollabolla.

The major settlement, Vaitape, is on the west-ern side of the island, opposite the main chan-nel into the lagoon. The products of the island are mostly limited to what can be obtained from the sea and coconut trees, which were historically of economic importance for copra. During the August 2007 census, the population on the island was about 8,880 people.

Barbados

Barbados has experienced several waves of human habitation. The first wave was the Sal-adoid-Barrancoid group, farmers, fishermen, and ceramists who arrived by canoe from Ven-ezuela’s Orinoco Valley around 350 AD. The Arawak people were the second wave, arriving from South America around 800 AD. Arawak settlements on the island include Stroud Point, Chandler Bay, Saint Luke’s Gully, and Mapp’s

Cave. According to accounts by descendants of the aboriginal Arawak tribes on other local islands, the original name for Barbados was Ichirouganaim. In the 13th century, the Caribs arrived from South America in the third wave, displacing both the Arawak and the Salodoid-Barrancoid. For the next few centuries, they lived in isolation on the island.

The name “Barbados” comes from a Portu-guese explorer named Pedro Campos in 1536, who originally called the island Los Barbados (“The Bearded Ones”), after the appearance of the island’s fig trees, whose long, hanging aer-ial roots resembled beards. Between Campos’s sighting in 1536 and 1550, Spanish conquista-dors seized many Caribs on Barbados and used them as slave labor on plantations. The others fled the island, moving elsewhere.

Mauritius

Mauritius is a small, multicultural island in the Indian Ocean, east of Madagascar and south-east of the Seychelles. Mauritius also controls Rodrigues Island and the remote, sparsely pop-ulated Agalega and Cargados Garayos (Saint Brandon) islands.

Greece

Greece is a country near southern Europe, on the southernmost tip of the Balkan peninsula, with extensive coastlines and islands in the Ae-gean, Ionian, and Mediterranean Seas. It shares borders in the north with Albania, the Republic of Macedonia, Bulgaria, and Turkey. It has an ancient culture that has had a significant influ-ence on the arts, language, philosophy, politics, and sports of Western society, including the genres of comedy and drama, Western alpha-bets, Platonic ideals and the Socratic method, democracies and republics, and the Olympics. Furthermore, it’s a geographically appealing place to visit, with a mountainous mainland and idyllic island beaches.

Aruba

Aruba is a Caribbean island 15 miles north of the coast of Venezuela. The island is an autonomous dependency of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. It is 19.6 miles long and 6 miles across, at its widest point, with an area of approximately 70 square miles. This f lat, riverless island is renowned for its white sand beaches. Its tropical climate is moderated by

constant trade winds from the Atlantic Ocean. The temperature is almost constant at about 81 degrees Farenheit. The yearly rainfall usually does not exceed 20 inches. Aruba is situated outside the Caribbean hurricane belt.

Aruba is div ided into the northeast and southwest coasts. The southwest has the white sand beaches, turquoise seas, and warm waters. The northeast coast, exposed to the Atlantic, has a few white sand beaches, cacti, rough seas with treacherous currents, and a rocky coastline. The time in Aruba is Atlantic standard time; it is the same as Eastern Daylight Savings time all year round.

France

France is a country located in western Europe. Clockwise from the north, France borders Belgium, Luxembourg and Germany to the northeast, Switzerland to the east, Italy to the southeast and Spain to the southwest, across the Pyrenees mountain range (the small country of Andorra lies in between the two countries). The Mediterranean Sea lies to the south of France, with the Principality of Monaco forming a small enclave. To the west, France has a long Atlantic Ocean coastline, while to the north lies the English Channel, across which lies the last of France’s neighbors, England (part of the United Kingdom).

France has been the world’s most popular tour-ist destination for over 20 years (81.9 million in 2007) and it’s geographically one of the most diverse countries in Europe. Its cities contain some of the greatest treasures in Europe, its countryside is prosperous and well tended and it boasts dozens of major tourist attrac-tions, like Paris, the French Riviera, the Atlantic beaches, the winter sport resorts of the French Alps, the castles of the Loire Valley, Brittany and Normandy. The country is renowned for its gastronomy (particularly wines and cheeses), history, culture, and fashion.

Tahiti

Tahiti lies in the South Pacific. It is the largest of the 118 islands and atolls that comprise French Polynesia. Tahiti is in the Society Islands, an archipelago which includes the islands of Bora Bora, Raiatea, Taha’a, Huahine and Moorea, and has a population of 127,000 people, about 83 percent of whom are of Polynesian ancestry. The legendary name “Tahiti” not only identifies

this island but also the group of islands that make up French Polynesia.

Tahiti is composed of two volcanic moun-tain ranges. In the shape of a “turtle,” it is made of Tahiti Nui (the larger part) and Ta-hiti Iti (the peninsula). The two islands are linked by the isthmus of Taravao and skirted by black beaches.

Singapore

Singapore is a city-state in Southeast Asia. Founded as a British trading colony in 1819, since independence it has become one of the world’s most prosperous countries and boasts the world’s busiest port.

Combining the skyscrapers and subways of a modern, affluent city with a medley of Chinese, Malay, and Indian inf luences and a tropical climate, with tasty food, good shopping, and a vibrant nightlife scene, this Garden City makes a great stopover or springboard into the region.

Seychelles

The Seychelles were disputed between France and Great Britain during the age of colonialism, with Britain ending up in control in 1814 after the Napoleonic Wars. The islands achieved independence in 1976; however, free elections did not occur until 1993.

The politics of this island group remain in something of a state of f lux, although this should not bother the tourist seeking a relaxing beach vacation.

Italy

Italy is a large country in southern Europe. Together with Greece, it is acknowledged as the birthplace of Western culture. Not surprisingly, it is also home to the greatest number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the world. High art and monuments are to be found everywhere around the country. It is also famous worldwide for its delicious cuisine, its trendy fashions, luxury sports cars and motorcycles, diverse regional cultures and dialects, as well as for its many beautiful coasts, alpine lakes, and mountains (the Alps and Apennines). No wonder it is often nicknamed Il Bel Paese (The Beautiful Country).

For brides-to-be, the big day seems like it comes with a big price tag – but it doesn’t have to. The season's top wedding trends pair elegance and affordability with options to make an event that is uniquely “you.” To stay within your budget, follow these wedding tips.

Add personal accessories for a lasting look

The gown is an important part of being a beaming bride, but it can be a large expense. Get a beautiful look with plenty of personality, without breaking the bank. Start with a simple gown and acces-sorize it to suit your tastes. Add a splash of color with a bright sash or f lashy shoes. Hair accessories provide a fashionable option at little cost.

Outdoor weddings offer romance

Perhaps no other setting is more romantic than the outdoors. Mother Nature provides the best backdrop for your special occa-sion. Outdoor weddings can be more affordable as parks or gar-dens typically offer rental areas at a reasonable rate. Know a rela-

tive with a beautiful yard? Ask them if you can host your wedding there. Then all you have to do is rent the supplies, such as chairs, tents and archways from your local American Rental Association rental store.

Create homemade floral arrangements

Once you add up the bouquets, centerpieces, boutonnieres and more, your floral expense can be shocking. Brides are choosing to take a personal approach by gathering friends and family to create the flower pieces. Get together and create the masterpieces for the big day while enjoying food, drink and each other’s company.

Create a fun eating environment for less

The reception is often the largest cost of hosting a wedding. Bud-get-wise brides are choosing “bring your own food and drinks” locations. Food stations can be set up around the reception room offering different types of food, such as salad bar, pasta, and des-serts. – ARA Content

Let SAM’S take the worry and cost out of

having your next event catered!

You’ve found the right person. Now you just have to find the right ring and the right moment to pop the question. So how do you make your proposal turn out flawlessly? We have plenty of tried-and-true tips to help you, but overall, it all comes down to just one thing: effort. Putting real effort, thought, and love into your proposal makes all the difference. Remember, your proposal doesn’t have to change the world. It just has to show your partner that he/she means the world to you.

Here are a few tips that will help you along the way:

Know the answer. Your proposal should be surprising, but it shouldn’t come directly out of left field. Before you pull a ring out, have a good idea how your partner will respond. “Will you marry me?” shouldn’t be your first discussion on the subject.

The engagement ring. Here’s where a little bit of effort goes a long way. If you’re still deciding on a diamond engagement ring, consider doing some window-shopping together prior to making a purchase. If you want to keep things more secretive, talk to your partner’s friends and family, or family jeweler, to get a feel for taste and style. Another option is to use a stand-in ring for the proposal. Perhaps you can use a great-grandmother’s diamond engagement ring, and then go shopping later. We can tell you everything you need to know about how to buy a diamond.

Peace-of-mind. Do your homework before buying the engagement ring. Most importantly find a jeweler you trust. Don’t have a jeweler? An AGS-certified jeweler is always ready to help. And, make sure you insure the ring. As soon as you get it, you should insure it. Your jeweler will be able to discuss this with you, or you may be able to insure it for an additional cost under your homeowner's or tenants insurance policy.

Ask permission, not forgiveness. Before you take a knee, take the time to speak with your partner's father first. Asking permission is a tradition that we’ve carried since the Roman times, and it’s a great way to make a good impression on your future in-laws.

Be creative. This is your chance to shine. No matter what you do, just put your heart into it. Here are a few ideas to get your started:

Location, location, location. Propose via video or in person from an extreme location – atop a mountain, while skydiving, or on the shores of a romantic and faraway beach.

Traditional. In an intimate setting, preferably one with family and friends waiting nearby, drop to one knee and let your heart do the talking.

Spread the news. Your fiancé will most likely handle this for you, but make sure to share the big news with people you know. You might also consider sending out an engagement announcement.

Celebrate. You did it! Consider toasting your engagement with a night on the town, a glass of bubbly, or a celebration with friends and family.

Find a jeweler certified by the American Gem Society in your area for wedding proposal and engagement ring ideas. Visit or contact Brown Goldsmiths, 11 Mechanic Street, Freeport; phone: 865-4126 or 800-753-4465; www.browngoldsmiths.com/. Source: American Gem Society.

When you think of a wedding, you probably think of the bride’s dress, the flower arrangements, the food and the music. But what about the groom? More specif ical ly, what about the groom’s attire? It’s his special day, too. So it’s time to devote some attention to him.

Think back to all the weddings of decades past. What was the groom wearing as he watched his bride walk down the aisle? Most weddings were formal occasions and the tuxedo ruled the day.

But times have changed. One of the reasons for this shift could be the economy said Jane Carlton Hall, Fashion Design instructor at The Art Institute of Houston. “When it’s time to find a place to cut costs when planning your wedding in this economy, a formal tux is one place couples start,” she said. Hall pointed out that even if the

Fun, formal, and beyond: What the groom wearsgroom springs for a new suit, it’ll be something he can wear again and again.

But other factors also come into play. “Now people are much more creative, with destination wedd i ngs a nd dude ra nch weddings, which are popular here in Arizona, and the attire matches the location,” said Elizabeth Heuisler, academic director for Fashion Design and Fashion Marketing at The Art Institute of Tucson. She advised that grooms still lay out some cash for a new pair of jeans if they wind up saying their “I dos” at a dude ranch.

Cyndy McCoy, a Fashion Retail Management instructor at The Art Institute of Fort Worth, a campus of South University, added, “A nice l ight colored sh ir t w it h l inen pa nts a nd sandals or even barefoot works ver y well for the groom at a beach wedding.”

And even if you are taking a more t radit iona l route a nd pla nning a forma l evening wedding, you don't necessarily need a tux. “Nothing dictates that you have to wear a tux,” said McCoy. “A nice black suit works quite well.” Hall advised that even if you don't necessarily pla n on wea r i ng a t u x , a formalwear store is a good place to go for ideas and advice about current trends.

Hall also said that the recent royal wedding that took place in Britain reminds us that classic looks are always in style. McCoy echoed, “You ca n never go wrong with the classics.”

But according to Hall, when all is said and done, the special day is still about the bride. “In my opinion, the groom should dress in the same way that a museum frames a beautiful painting, so as not to detract from the bride.” – ARA Content What the groom and groomsmen wear are determined by factors such as

where the wedding is taking place. Formal wear might be better for an evening wedding held at a church and casual wear might be better for a beach wedding. It’s an individual choice.

Shoe-selection tips to help brides avoid wedding day foot painThe man of your dreams, a stunning dress and the most darling shoes to go with it – you have everything you need to ensure your wedding is perfect in every way. But at the end of your big day, will you be left with something less welcome than beautiful memories? Will you be sporting sore feet?

“Brides may think that aching feet at the end of their wedding day is just something they'll have to put up with,” said Dr. Jacqueline Sutera, a doctor of pod iat r ic med ici ne a nd spokesperson for the American Podiatric Medical Association.

“But while dancing the night away at the reception can tire their feet, brides shouldn't end their big day with sore feet. The right shoe choice can help protect them from foot pain.”

Most women consider com-fort over style or price when se-lecting a shoe, according to an APMA survey. Yet brides may be tempted to put looks over com-fort, thinking they’ll wear their wedding shoes so briefly a little discomfort won’t make a differ-ence. Wearing shoes that irritate your feet can cause long-term injury, however, and make ex-isting problems, like bunions or hammer toes, worse. Keep these tips from APMA in mind:

Lower heels are better. You may love how your legs look in those 5-inch stilettos, but very high heels can put a lot of pressure on your feet and even cause misalignment of the spine. If you know you’ll be on your feet for hours (and what bride isn’t?), consider choosing a lower heel of no more than 2 inches.

Can’t go without your very high heels? Consider keeping a sec-ond, lower-heeled shoe on hand to slip on during down times. Wear your hot high heels for the ceremony and photos, and switch to the more comfortable, practical (but still pretty) lower heels for the reception.

Shoes with wide, rounded toes tend to be more comfortable. Pointed or tight shoes pinch the

toes into unnatural positions, and can cause or contribute to a number of foot problems. A good rule of thumb – if you can’t wiggle your toes in your shoes, they’re too tight.

Opt for materials that have some “g ive.” W h ite patent leather pumps may look great, but those satin shoes may actu-ally be better for your feet if they have a bit of stretch. Never wear plastic or vinyl shoes, which don't allow feet to breathe.

Whatever shoe material you choose, the shoe itself should have a f lexible sole that allows your toes to bend naturally when you walk, and have a rigid, cushioned heel counter to keep your foot from slipping around inside the shoe. Consider pur-chasing inserts for your shoes to help cushion the heels, arches, and balls of your feet.

Don’t buy a gorgeous but uncomfortable pair of shoes thinking you’l l “break them in.” Any shoe you buy should be comfortable immediately, and you probably won’t want to wear them before the wedding day and risk getting them scuffed or

dirty. If it rubs or chafes in the store, time and wear will not improve how the shoe feels.

E v e r y o n e ’s f o ot e x p a n d s throughout the day, so go shoe shopping in the afternoon when your feet are at their largest. Even if you plan a sunrise wed-ding, choosing your wedding

shoe based on your end-of-day size will help ensure you get the best fit.

Flip-flops are a hot trend for brides, especially if you’re mar-r ying during warm months. Flip-flops can be very comfort-able; just be sure to choose the right style. Flip-flops with soles

that bend freely and twist eas-ily offer no support or stability. Look for a style that bends only at the ball of the foot, and that provides arch support, cushion-ing the foot and providing sta-bility. The thong part of the shoe should be made of high-quality, soft leather to help avoid blisters.

“Sore feet should be the last thing on your mind on the big-gest day of your life,” Sutera said. “Some wise choices in footwear can help brides ensure their feet feel as great as they look on their wedding day.” –ARA Content

Almost all weddings contain an embarrassing moment or two. The most common include ei-ther the bride or groom forget-ting their vows, problems with the bridal gown, a member of the wedding party being late, or someone getting tipsy at the reception. Most embarrass-

Can you look back and laugh now?ments are minor, and although mortifying at the time, they can be laughed about later. Here are some embarrassing moments that others have encountered.

A formal church wedding cer-emony: The bride unknowingly caught her dress on a nail. With each step, the nail caught a little tighter and the dress tore a little more until finally, the unaware bride stepped up to the offici-

ate near the altar and the whole backside of her skirt tore off. The guests would have had a fine view of her backside had it not been for the quick-thinking maid of honor who casually stepped up behind the bride, lifted the gown and held it in place for the duration of the ceremony.

An outdoor meadow ceremony: The bride looked radiant walking down the aisle, her full-length gown rustling across the ground with each step. Suddenly she top-pled over writhing in pain. Her

father, at her side, tried to help her to her feet but she’d sprained her ankle when she fell off her high heels. After a short delay to wrap her ankle, the ceremony continued with the bride and groom sitting side by side.

A small country church wed-ding ceremony: The tiny church was adorned with fresh f low-ers throughout. As the groom waited for his bride, he was pes-tered by a bee. Brushing it aside, he thought nothing of it. Min-utes later, the bride arrived, the

ceremony began and the bee brought friends. Soon, five, 10, 15 bees buzzed around the small room. Guests grew restless and the bride and groom became distracted as the bees attempted to land on the bride’s head to sip the sweet nectar from the flow-ers in her hair. But it wasn’t until the priest was stung that they opted to continue the ceremony outside and let the bees have the church, the headpiece, and the flowers to themselves.

A church ceremony: The groom was growing nervous as the best man was late. Time was growing short – where was he? – the groom wondered. Hav-ing spilled coffee on his gray tux trousers, the best man and maid of honor were attempt-ing to clean them when unbe-knownst to them the wedding ring fell out. Hurrying off to the church, they never noticed it was gone until it was time to give it to the groom. With the cer-emony starting momentarily, the groom borrowed his grand-mother’s engagement ring to give to his bride. Later that day the wedding ring was recovered and all ended well.

A church ceremony in progress on a stormy night: When the

priest asked if anyone objected to the marriage, suddenly there was a bright f lash of light. The church was plunged into dark-ness except for the few candles lit by the altar. Everyone looked around, bride and groom in-cluded, to see what had hap-pened – was it a joke or a sign from the almighty? As it turned out, it was a bolt of lightning hit-ting a transformer that took out the lights for miles around. The ceremony ended by candlelight – how romantic.

A destination wedding: Guests arrived on schedule only to find they had no reservations. The bride, frantic, scrambled to find out what had happened to the reservations she had made. As it turned out, one couple who were unable to attend the wedding at the last minute called to cancel their room, but inadvertent ly, the hotel cancelled the reservations for the whole group.

A cross-cultural destination wedding reception: The groom, anxious to surprise his bride and impress his new in-laws, attempt-ed a toast in their native language. Halfway through the toast, he began to wonder by the looks on their faces if he had made a grave error but plowed ahead without missing a beat. Indeed, he had inadvertently called his mother-in-law, father-in-law, and bride unflattering names. His inten-tions were honorable though and all was forgiven.

A wedding recept ion : T he groom approached his mother-in-law to ask her to dance. As she rose from the table, her nap-kin fell to the f loor. He, being a gentleman, bent down to pick it up. As he rose, the tablecloth brushed the top of his head and made his toupee askew. The dance began and moments lat-er, the bride cut in and the cou-ple quickly danced their way to a private corner where an adjust-ment took place.

If at your wedding, you drop the ring or trip over your own feet, don’t feel too bad. You’re not alone.

Celebrity wedding flower choices

From royal weddings to celeb-rity marriages; we just love see-ing pictures of the whole day, especially the bride, her dress, and her bouquet. Flowers play an important role in the theme of a wedding and every bouquet is carefully considered and ar-ranged to have just the right im-pact on that special day.

In the Victorian language of flowers, lily-of-the-valley trans-lates as ‘you have made my life complete’ and so it has become a popular choice for celebrity weddings around the world.

It is only available in April and May, but modern alternatives for year-round sweetly scented blooms are freesia, tuberose and stephanotis. A summer wedding can have gorgeous sweet peas to add a splash of scent, as LeAnn Rimes chose for her pretty wed-ding posy, mixed in with roses, hydrangea, and freesia.

Here we have selected a short list of memorable celebrity wed-dings with details of the flowers they chose for their big day:

Audrey Hepburn

A u d r e y c h o s e a s i m p l e headdress of large white roses when she married her f irst husband, Sean Ferrer, and for her second wedding to Andrea Dotti, she chose a scented hand-tied posy of freesia and lily-of-the-valley.

Barbra Streisand

On her wedding day, this singer and actress chose gardenias and li ly-of-the-valley, which would have smelled as beauti-ful as it looked.

Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor

Marilyn held a simple posy of three white orchids when she wed Joe Di Maggio, and whilst Elizabeth Taylor chose the same

Flowers for your big dayf lowers, she opted for a larger bouquet when she wed her first husband Nicky Hilton.

Kate Middleton

For her wedding to Pr ince William, Kate Middleton chose a bouquet of myrtle, l i ly-of-the-valley, hyacinth, and Sweet William, arranged in a small yet stylish design.

Zara Phillips

When Zara Phillips wed Mike Tindall, she opted for a tradi-tional bouquet of white calla lil-

ies, but added a personal touch of thistles in honour of the location: Canongate Kirk, Edinburgh.

The flower budget

Not everyone has a celebrity bank balance to pay for their wedding these days, but budget doesn’t necessari ly have to mean cheap or low quality.

Inter f lora has put toget her the best money-saving tips for your wedding day that will still ensure your wedding day is one to remember.

Bride’s flowers

Your flowers will tie in with your overall wedding theme and there are a number of ways you can make your bouquet stand out.

Save

Chose one single, beautiful f lower and add a little foliage for a really unique wedding

bouquet . You r f lor i st c a n recommend a range of single f lower choices such as a calla lily, sunflower, or amaryllis.

Spend

A single bouquet of f lowers in your chosen style can make a fan-tastic impression, whether you prefer country-style, modern chic or bright, tropical flowers.

Splurge

Florists can create custom bou-quets and accessories for your hair; all tailored to fit in perfect-ly with your wedding theme.

Bridesmaid’s flowers

Splurge

You can tailor individual bou-quets to suit your bridesmaid’s personalities and styles. This works particularly well if you have chosen different dress styles for each of your bridesmaids.

Spend

Smaller versions of your wed-ding bouquet look wonderful when carried by your brides-maids and helps tie all the flow-ers together.

Save

Keep it simple and give your bridesmaids wrist corsages or f lowers in their hair. They will still look beautiful and it will make your bouquet stand out even more.

The Wedding

Splurge

Flower garlands strung across t he pews a nd la rge f lower arrangements decorating the altar or register desk will add a touch of sophistication to your wedding day.

Spend

If you order f lower decorations in movable containers for your wedding ceremony, they can then be transported to your wed-ding reception with ease and placed around the head table.

Save

Ask your florist to decorate pews and chairs with ivy and ribbon. It is a simple yet stylish solution that really saves the pennies.

Venue

Splurge

Tall vases with f loral arrange-ments on either side of the head table will look incredible and you can add an air of elegance with a couple of candelabras. Flower arrangements on the guest tables should not be too big as to obscure their view but

you can add scattered rose pet-als for an extra finish.

Spend

Flowers from the church or register office can be brought over to decorate your wedding venue. If you want them to look a little different, simply change the containers or swap coloured ribbons to give them a new look.

Save

Natural plants and cut herbs make a wonderful alternative to f lowers and, if you source varieties in season, they can make quite a saving, too.

Budding news for brides: Wedding flower fashion and fundamentals

Brides need not worry about matchmaking when it comes to wedding flowers. From the bridal bouquets to the boutonnieres, wedding flower trends include di-versity of choice, boldness of color and distinctiveness of design, ac-cording to a leading expert.

Floral and interior designer Rebecca Cole is author of Flower Power, co-host of Discover y Channel's Surprise by Design ,and a regular contributor to the Today show. She described top trends in wedding flowers.

“Wedding f lowers follow fash-ion trends,” Cole said, “and to-

day, individuality, rather than convention is in style. No longer do the bridesmaids' bouquets need to match the bridal bou-quet, the boutonnieres and cen-terpieces.” In some cases, each bridesmaid may have a different bouquet, according to Cole.

Colorful blooms, in contrast to traditional white, also are en vogue, with lavenders and plu m s b e aut i f y i n g br id a l pa rt ies. Bold a nd powerf ul arrangements dominate over t he t radit iona l ly roma nt ic. “ M o d e r n , Z e n a n d e v e n m o n o c h r o m a t i c d e s i g n s featuring only one f lower or

Hand-tied bouquet of white flowers. Society of American Florists photo

Society of American Florists photoContemporary bouquets are inspired by unconventional ideas, styles and patterns and are designed with no specific geometric form. They are usually created with flowers that have definite form and add character to a bouquet (such as calla lilies, orchids and anthuriums). Contemporary bouquets represent the individuality of the bride and are perfect for a sophisticated, cosmopolitan style wedding. They're simplistic but have the added grace of asymmetrical design. Flowers Featured: roses, tulips, mini callas, star of Bethlehem, veronica.

Society of American Florists photoContact your florist once you've selected the date, time and place for your wedding and reception. If you aren't familiar with the florists in your area, ask for recommendations from other brides, reception halls or churches. If possible, set up an appointment with the lead designer who will be in charge of filling the order for your wedding flowers. Look through bridal books and floral guides. Sketch ideas, cut out pictures or take photographs of flowers you like and share them with your florist. Seeing your ideas and personal style will help your florist translate your concepts and special requests into workable floral designs and arrangements that are just right for you. It will be helpful if you know the colors and style of the gowns you and your bridesmaids will be wearing. Bring pictures of your gown and the bridesmaids dresses, along with swatches of fabric if you have them available. During your initial consultation with your florist, discuss specific design ideas that fit both your personal style and budget.

color will in many cases replace traditional delicate mixes of flowers headed down the aisle,” Cole said.

When it comes to dramatic and distinctive design, hand-tied French-twist bouquets incorpo-rating bold ribbons and pearls will make a striking statement.

Cascading bouquets, a current popular selection for brides, will continue to add drama. And, table decor will become even more of a central focus.

Think outside the bunch

“The containers that hold the f lowers and what surrounds them, the candles, are attract-ing significant attention from brides,” Cole said. “Even for smaller, more intimate wed-dings, flowers can make a big de-sign statement, on any budget.”

Flowersfrom page 18

Beyond the most established uses for wedding flowers – room and table decor and corsages – flowers of all varieties are being used to enhance the special day in many non-traditional ways. For example:

• Decorations for the wedding transportation,

• Rehearsal dinner and wedding brunch,

• Welcome gifts for out-of-town guests and members of the bridal parties,

• Thank you gif ts for t hose people who make the bride and groom’s day special,

• Floating arrangements for ponds or pools, and

• Accessories for the bride’s hair, in some cases replacing the more traditional veil.

T he S o c ie t y of A mer ic a n Florists, the trade association that represents thousands of U.S. florists and other members

of the f loral industry, wants every bride’s day to be perfect and offers helpful advice for brides-to-be.

Some key pieces of information brides should share with their f lorists include descriptions of the wedding dress, bridesmaids d r e s s c olor s , c hu r c h a nd reception rules and pictures of arrangements they like and don’t like.

“Seeing your personal st yle will help your f lorist translate your concepts into workable f loral designs that will make your wedding day look l ike you’ve always imagined,” said Jennifer Sparks, vice president of marketing for the Society. The organization also suggests some questions brides should ask during a floral consultation, such as:

• Do you have any pictures of your work at my wedding/reception location?

• Will the newest floral varieties

be available in the colors I have chosen?

“Flowers are one of the most

important elements of your wedding day,” Cole added. “They set the mood and tone for the event and will remembered
