She Has A Lot Of Irish Pride

April 10th, 2013 - 

My girlfriend Shaina is one of the first people I have ever met from Ireland. I have met quite a few Irish-Americans, but it is is most definitely not the same. The level of pride she has for her homeland beat all that I have ever seen. I am a stone cold America lover, and she has me beat by a mile. We have been together for a little over four years and I am ready to take things to the next level.

I want to propose to her, but I am having a very hard time choosing which one of the engagement rings I have seen is the right one for her. I wanted to get something that has an Irish feel to it, because I know that will make her love my selection even more. I spent a few hours on Google the other night looking up results for “engagement rings dublin,” and I think I have a good idea of what I should be on the lookout for.

engagement rings stockI am not one of those guys that buys diamond rings every day, so I am a little intimidated. My sister was over here earlier, and I showed her a few of the rings I had in mind. She looked a little unsure about my selection, but I think a lot of that was because she wouldn’t want any of them personally.  She was trying to steer me toward a more traditional engagement ring, but I know in my heart that my girlfriend would like my idea more.

The ones I have in mind are all claddagh rings, but they are different as far as style and metal. I know that my girlfriend does not like gold very much, so I would definitely get her something that is either white gold or platinum. I am not a huge fan of silver since it tends to get very tarnished over time. I saw several that have a diamonds in them, and a few that have other stones in them as well.

I would go for the green stone, but I think that is taking the entire Irish theme a bit too far. While that is a great color in general, I don’t think an engagement ring with a green stone will put a smile on her face. I will stick with something that is diamond, but that brings up another issue. I am not sure what size stone I should get. I don’t want to look cheap, so I want to get something pretty sizable, but I also have to keep the fact that I am not made of money in the forefront.

I think that my girlfriend will end up appreciating whatever ring I purchase, but like I said earlier, I want it to be something that reflects a bit of who she is. She loves me for me and I love her for her, so my ring choice should show her how true that is to my heart.

Simple Tips For Planning A Beautiful Wedding

August 24th, 2012 - 

Perhaps the most idyllic and exciting time in a relationship is the engagement itself. On the other hand, the wedding planning that follows is usually the opposite of romantic in its demands and stress. The following article contains a number of helpful hints and ideas to help make the wedding preparations easier, and insure the ceremony itself is a wonderful success.

Purchasing a wedding gown online may save you several hundred dollars initially. I only spent $100 on my gown when I was married, but I spent another $200 on having it altered. Make sure the costs are included in your budget.

You’re going to look at the pictures from your wedding for many years to come, so make sure that you get good quality photos taken. Make sure that you hire a professional photographer and spend a little extra money on this if you have to so that you can document your experience wonderfully.

To help you plan your wedding and make it easier on you, consider hiring a wedding consultant. With all the chaos that surrounds a wedding and the planning that is inherently involved, many problems may arise. By hiring a consultant, you can have someone you can trust that is there to make sure these problems are minimal and that when they do happen you are not the one that has to take care of them. This will allow you, your spouse-to-be, your family and your guests to simply enjoy your special day.

If you and your fiance can keep the focus on your priorities, then you will have an easier time with planning your wedding and may even enjoy it. If you plan your wedding together you can help build a base for your marriage. Hopefully these tips can help plan your wedding and prepare you for a lifetime of working together happily.

Planning a wedding can sometimes be a confusing, stressful process. This article can help you discover the easiest ways to get your wedding planned with minimal stress.

If you want a much better wedding day look but on a budget that is tight, consider renting diamonds. This will allow you to work your aesthetic to your tastes without the hefty price tag.

Your wedding should be as unique as your relationship is, so add a few touches specific to your personalities or relationship. Select a theme that represents the time that you have spent with each other.

Try talking to local and specialty boutiques and bakeries about individual-sized portion cakes if you don\\\\\\\’t want a fatty and expensive cake. There are boutiques that will bake fresh cupcakes with very few calories specifically for your event, and deliver them. These boutiques also often have healthy options available such as gluten-free, fruit based fillings instead of frosting, and healthier alternative toppings.

If there will be no dinner served for the guests, you can use that free space for renting various furniture to ensure a comfortable evening among the crowd. Luxury chaises, lounges and plush sectional seating can encourage your guests to interact with each other. Plush seating is also conductive to a relaxing time, and is comfortable for those with mobility issues. You can also use your furniture to customize your space.

Keep the bride happy on her special day by ensuring that all details meet her high standards. She is sure to be unhappy if she is forced to deal with arrangements that are simply below her standards. In order to avoid a potentially catastrophic situation, you should make certain that every decision is reviewed by her.

Despite all the hard work involved, keeping this advice in mind will help your big day go smoothly. It is hoped that the advice mentioned previously has provided you with ideas for making your wedding planning activities less stressful and more enjoyable!
