    <content:encoded><![CDATA[ With the ease and efficiency of the internet, many bride elects have tried to plan a wedding online. You get a wider range of ideas and products for your big day when you plan a wedding online, while you do most of these things from the comfort of your own home. You can compare different prices, companies, and even talk with others online that have had similar experiences. When you plan a wedding online, the creative possibilities for your day are endless. <br /><br /> To plan a wedding online, you can visit <a href="http://www.<a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/theknot" rel="tag">theknot</a>.com" >http://www.theknot.com</a>. With this website, you'll find great <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/wedding+shower+invitation+ideas" rel="tag"><a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/wedding+shower+invitation" rel="tag">wedding shower invitation</a> ideas</a>. The wedding shower is often the first of many gatherings and parties that lead to your wedding day. So naturally, <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/creative+wedding" rel="tag">creative wedding</a> shower invitation ideas set the tone for the approaching event. Basic invitations include information about the event -- but other wedding shower invitation ideas include creatively-written poems, stories or anything else that will get your guests' attention. Since the wedding shower usually includes your closest friends and family, you can incorporate creative and non-traditional wedding shower invitation ideas without worrying what others will think of you. <br /><br /> At <a href="http://www.theknot.com" >http://www.theknot.com</a> and other wedding-based websites, you can also get a variety of <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/wedding+speech+examples" rel="tag">wedding speech examples</a>.

The wedding speech examples will show what kind of information to include, as well as tips on overcoming nervousness (other than visiting the open bar beforehand!) <br /><br /> When you plan a wedding online, you might also want to find some <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/wedding+program" rel="tag">wedding program</a> ideas. When your guests walk into your wedding, they should be handed a wedding program. These typically look like a <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/playbill" rel="tag">playbill</a> and the inside gives a short description of the events that will happen, as well as a cast of characters. Having creative wedding program ideas will give you the chance to exhibit some of your creative abilities. You can find many wedding program ideas and other wedding-related resources at <a href="http://www.ezweddingplanner.com" >http://www.ezweddingplanner.com</a>.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[As a <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/wedding+consultant" rel="tag">wedding consultant</a>, I am asked questions about etiquette more than any other topic. Brides generally fit into two categories when it comes to etiquette: those who want to plan knowing that their actions will be socially acceptable to avoid any embarrassment, and those who aren't concerned about etiquette because "it's my wedding and I'll do what I want, thank you very much." <br /><br /> This article is intended for the latter bride. It is certainly nice to have the table set correctly, the appropriate person in the appropriate spot, etc. However, have you ever considered that other people's feelings are at stake? <br /><br /> Not only can you avoid looking a little silly by overlooking simple etiquette, you can also be kind and considerate to those closest to you who are sharing in your special day. For example, I know of a bride who asked her sister-in-law to be in the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/bridal+party" rel="tag">bridal party</a>, but not her brother. As I'm sure you can imagine, her brother was not only hurt but was placed in an <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/awkward" rel="tag">awkward</a> situation when asked by a guest why he wasn't in the bridal party. <br /><br /> Weddings are stressful enough as it is. Unintentionally hurting a loved one causes tension and disappointment for many. You don't want to start your new life by leaving your loved ones in the dust in your old life. <br /><br /> In my professional opinion, the best course of action to take concerning <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/wedding+etiquette" rel="tag">wedding etiquette</a> is to either discuss your situation with a wedding consultant or read as much as possible on wedding etiquette. Once you are fully educated and well-informed on the topic of wedding etiquette, combine the part of the etiquette that makes sense to you with what you really want for your wedding. Oh, and don't forget to ask the groom his opinion (that would be the proper thing to do, you know)! <br /><br /> Besides wedding consultants and books, there are several great websites that can assist you when determining the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/correct+etiquette" rel="tag">correct etiquette</a> for your wedding. Some of these sites are <a href="<a href="http://www.bridalblog.info">http://www.bridalblog.info</a>"><a href="http://www.bridalblog.info">http://www.bridalblog.info</a></a> and <a href="http://www.<a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/theknot" rel="tag">theknot</a>.com">http://www.theknot.com.</a>. Be sure to look for helpful information on these sites. <br /><br /> Another great avenue for wedding etiquette is to talk to an elderly person about his/her own wedding. Oftentimes, today's society does not adhere to etiquette as much as was done in previous generations. Not only can you get some great information, you will probably brighten this person's day. Showing interest in someone else's life is another great etiquette tool to have in your bag. <br /><br /> Whatever you decide to do, always keep in mind that wedding etiquette is yours for the taking. It's not something you have to put a deposit down on, taste, or fit onto someone's schedule. It's simply taking the time to let the people you invite to your wedding know that you care enough about them to take their feelings into consideration, even if it is your day. Pleasing your guests in any situation should be the goal of a hostess; pleasing your closest friends and family on your wedding day speaks highly of you and your groom. <br /><br /> Pepper Montero   <bio>Pepper and her husband run a wedding coordination business in South Carolina.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[ Is it possible to add more luck when you are <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/getting+married" rel="tag">getting married</a> on 7-7-07? Getting married is a big gamble because no one knows which half they are the marriages that end in divorce. According to <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/theknot" rel="tag">theknot</a>.com, 31,000 <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/couples" rel="tag">couples</a> are planning to get married on "lucky" 7-7-07. This number is triple the usual number of the July 4 weekend weddings. Triple number "7" lining up on a Las Vegas slot machine gets you a <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/jackpot" rel="tag">jackpot</a> payoff. <br /><br /> Couples getting married on 7-7-07 are looking for extra luck for their "jackpot" marriage. But staying happily married is not about luck: it is a big task that is all about communication and physical and emotional connection. <br /><br /> If you are going to marry on 7-7-07 and you want to add more luck to your wedding, I suggest that you create your own Jackpot Wedding Care package: you and your partner can create a more personal and meaningful beginning to your marriage. It is a "survival kit" for the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/first+year+of+marriage" rel="tag">first year of marriage</a>. <br /><br /> I suggest you put lucky 7 items inside the "Jackpot" Wedding Care Package. Each item is necessary to bring extra luck when you prepare for the marriage and to keep the marriage strong and happy. Inside the Jackpot Wedding Care Package, put the following items together as a wedding present to you and your partners: <br /><br /> =95 a talking stick or rock (each uniquely designed and craft-painted by the couple)  =95 a journal book (the bride recording her thoughts as the wedding day approaches)  =95 a weekly "Honey To-do List"  =95 sexy lovers' coupon book  =95 personalized wedding vows (to be rewritten and renewed on each anniversary)  =95 a prenuptial <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/marriage+agreement" rel="tag">marriage agreement</a> (fun and sexy, not just financial agreements)  =95 sexy photos of the couple <br /><br /> If you are already married, you still can create this Jackpot Wedding Care Package. and a "marriage stimulator" for couples who are already married.   <bio><a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/py+kim+conant" rel="tag">Py Kim Conant</a> is the author of "Sex Secrets of an American Geisha: How to Attract, Satisfy, and Keep Your Man" (Hunter House).

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[ You might want to say to the bride, "Congratulations on Your Wedding. I Hate You!" Good news for single women who are invited to the friend's or relative's wedding on the "lucky" date of 7-7-07! If you think the wedding is all about the bride, then you are wrong! The wedding and reception are all about you meeting men in a "marriage" type of situation. <br /><br /> The very biggest mistake that a single woman makes about <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/going+to+a+wedding" rel="tag">going to a wedding</a> and reception is that she does not <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/realize+that+this" rel="tag">realize that this</a> is the best possible high-quality singles event in the entire world!" <br /><br /> If you want to meet a Good Man and get married, there is no better place to start than at the wedding, particularly at the wedding reception. You should plan accordingly for the wedding. Don't forget that you are in a marriage event surrounded by lots of appropriate single men who have come alone and who are in a relaxed and party mood by the time the band starts playing at the reception. <br /><br /> According to <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/theknot" rel="tag">theknot</a>.com, about 38,000 <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/couples" rel="tag">couples</a> are planning to get married on that date. This number is triple the usual number of July 4th <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/weekend+weddings" rel="tag">weekend weddings</a>. As much as couples getting married on 7-7-07 are looking for extra luck for their "<a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/jackpot" rel="tag">jackpot</a>" marriage, just as that triple number "7" lining up on a Las Vegas slot machine gets the couples a jackpot payoff, you as a single woman will also win a jackpot if you avoid the top 10 mistakes single women make at weddings. You may have a chance to meet a Good Man you can marry to on 8-8-08, which is the luckiest date for a wedding in Asia. <br /><br /> Here are Top 10 mistakes you make that will leave you alone and single if you don't change your ways: <br /><br /> 1. You can't beat the singles blues so you are a bit depressed. Why a mistake? You should be happy and optimistic to have such a great opportunity to meet men. <br /><br /> 2. You don't come alone to the wedding and you talk to other girls at the wedding and reception. Why a mistake? Single guys can't approach you. Guys can approach you more easily if you are alone, so talk to men or be alone. <br /><br /> 3. You wear a bra. You don't dress sexy. Why a mistake? Guys are sexual so you should be sexy to attract attention. Men love to look at and are attracted to nipples and jiggling breasts (also; it's sexy). <br /><br /> 4. When guests have a chance to say something to the couple at the reception, you pass. Why a mistake? Speak and show how funny and beautiful you are. <br /><br /> 5. You don't drink at the reception. Why a mistake? It's okay to be a bit tipsy at the reception (be careful: just a "bit"), then to be a little flamboyant while dancing. <br /><br /> 6. You drink too much, get drunk, and start a striptease on the dance floor. Why a mistake? You don't act with a sense of class and femininity. You attract plenty of men, but no Good Men. Good Men are attracted to classy and feminine women. <br /><br /> 7. You eat like a pig at the reception (wrong animal). Why a mistake? Always eat like a bird (right animal) when you want men to notice you. <br /><br /> 8. You sit at a table at the reception and you dance infrequently at the reception. Why a mistake? Men can get to you more easily and you re more visible if you stand, preferably near the dance floor. Dance with anyone who asks you, so that all the men see you out on the dance floor, laughing, having fun, and being happy with all of the men you dance with. <br /><br /> 9.Y ou drive your car to the wedding, instead of getting a ride. Why a mistake? You can't accept a ride home with some hot-looking Good Man. <br /><br /> 10. You get in an argument with your boyfriend who hasn't proposed yet, asking him when he will be ready to commit. Why a mistake? You should have come alone to the wedding. Your boyfriend you think is the love of your life is not in love with you enough to marry you.   <bio>Py Kim Conant is Hollywood newest celebrity sex and relationship guru and the author of "Sex Secrets of an American Geisha: How to Attract, Satisfy, and Keep Your Man" (Hunter House).
