Vanity Fare Caterers Wedding Tip May 21, 2010

Poetry has helped star-crossed lovers express their deepest emotions for ages. Take the lead from Shakespeare or Lord Byron to personalize your wedding vows or to add a reading to your ceremony. Short sections of love poems and verses also make special favors. You can print lines on elegant paper, frame it or make a bookmark. It's a great and inexpensive way to add your own personal touch to your day.

Try one of these…

Shakespeare:

Shall I compare thee to a Summer's day?
Thou are more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And Summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd:
But thy eternal Summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st:
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee

British Folk Song:

Now here's a good health to the bride of yon house,
Grant her a solid good cheer;
Lord, bless her good health, Lord prosper her wealth,
That we may be married next year.

Well, here's to the bride, good luck to the lass,
Grant her a solid good cheer;
And through her garter, we'll pass each glass,
And may we be married next year.
Our glasses we'll lift now to the bridegroom.

Grant him a solid good cheer;
And the fellow that spills it he'll pay for t'next round,
And may we be married next year.

To the bridal pair we all will sing.
And grant them a solid good cheer;
In spite of Turk or Spanish king,
And may we be married next year.

Or, if you prefer a shorter verse…

We love with a love that was more than a love. ~Edgar Allan Poe

One half of me is yours, the other half yours- Mine own, I would say; but if mine, then yours, And so all yours! ~William Shakespeare

God hath made nothing single. ~Emily Dickinson

The world for me, And all the world can hold, is circled by your arms. ~James Weldon Johnson

A heart that loves is always young ~Greek Proverb

Love is promise, love is a souvenir. Once given, never forgotten, never let it disappear ~John Lennon

To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides ~David Viscott, Author

'Tis better to have loved and lost, then to never have loved at all ~Lord Alfred Tennyson

There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love ~Martin Luther King, Jr.

Vanity Fare Caterers Wedding Tip May 13, 2010

Anyone can put money in an envelope and, sure, it’s definitely appreciated...but, sometimes, you want to give the bride and groom a special gift. If they are an active, sporty couple, think about getting them a season ticket plan to their favorite local sports team, or a partial-season package, depending on your budget.

If you are more on the sentimental side and your best friend is getting married, think about all your memories together and you may come up with the perfect gift. You could always create a scrapbook, highlighting the good times you have shared and emphasizing how new memories can be made with your friend's new spouse. Using nice photo albums and frames will enable the new couple to fill their home with happy memories and images of loved ones.

If the bride and groom are more of the "spur of the moment, say anything, try anything once" type, the wedding is sure to be a blast and your gift had better be, too! Think about some fun games that would accent their fun style, like a nice dartboard that comes with its own solid wood cabinet. Or, what about sky-diving lessons?

But, if the happy couple is more domesticated, the type who like to do a lot of entertaining at home, what about a fondue set, unique barware items, cooking lessons or even a gift certificate to a local vineyard where they can make their own wine to serve at their get-together?

Vanity Fare Caterers Wedding Tip May 5, 2010

Make your first dance special. You can personalize it so that everyone will remember it. One of the best I have seen is a first dance where the bride and groom put together a music montage with little blurbs from all of their favorite songs. Then also choreographed a dance to each song segment. People are still talking about it!

Wedding Tip - Vanity Fare Caterers - April 30, 2010

Here's an interesting idea for a guest book: Have one of the Bridesmaids or a trusted family member (maybe even a niece or nephew who is looking to play an important role) take a Polaroid picture of guests as they arrive, paste it to the pages of the guest book and have them sign below their picture. That way, you will have a photo book of everyone from the wedding!

Wedding Tip April 8, 2010 Vanity Fare Caterers

When it comes to registering for your wedding, make sure that your guests have the opportunity to give you something that you really want, that you need and will use.

Start by registering at stores that offer registry rewards and an on-line registry service. This should be a great experience for both you and your guests. Register as early as possible so that your registries will be ready for any engagement parties, showers, etc. Try not to register at more than three establishments. When you have a lot of different registries, you confuse your guests.

Make sure to register for things that you will need and use and not what others are telling you to register for. Check your registry often on-line to make any adjustments as they are needed. Register for enough items (1.5 gifts for each person you invite) and at many different price points which makes it easier for people to buy you the gifts you want. Make sure that the groom has a say in what you register for as well. Remember to register for the things that you really need. It’s great to get nice gifts, but not if they are just going to sit in the cupboard.

Seating Chart Suggestions

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to handle making a seating chart when not everyone gets along? Looking for advice to share with brides/grooms to be.

Wedding Tip - Vanity Fare Caterers - March 25, 2010

No one wants to consider the possibility that a wedding will not take place. However, should you decide to cancel your event, do not expect your deposits back!

Some state laws contend that a deposit given to secure a time, service, or product is not refundable. The only reason a deposit would be returned is if the vendor providing the service/product is unable to deliver as promised and those terms of refund may be defined in the contract and limited to certain circumstances.

Deposits are used to purchase product or cover labor and time involved in preparing for an event, regardless of whether or not the event takes place, and cannot be returned later.

Vanity Fare Caterers Wedding Tip March 23, 2010

People are often apprehensive of giving toasts. But, for a wedding, it is hard to avoid this duty if you play a key part. Here are a few tips for making the perfect toast; do not be long winded, stand to give your toast, (remain seated if you are being toasted), prepare your speech ahead of time (and practice it), mention the person(s) you are honoring by name as well as what your relationship to them is and say something nice about the event you are at, add a funny (and tasteful) story, speak slowly and loud enough for everyone to hear, and it’s usually a good idea to avoid alcohol before giving a toast. And, as a general rule, toasting usually goes like this: at the rehearsal dinner the best man toasts the bride, the bride toasts the groom, the groom toasts the bride’s mother and the bride’s father can toast the bride’s parents. At the reception, the best man toasts the bride and groom, the groom toasts the bride’s family, the two fathers toast the bride and groom, and the bride and groom toast each other. The maid of honor may also toast the bride and groom.

Wedding Tip March 17, 2010 Vanity Fare Caterers

There are so many traditions associated with weddings. Have you ever wondered where they come from? The tradition of throwing a shower for the bride originated with a Dutch maiden who fell in love with a poor miller. Her friends "showered" them with numerous gifts to replace her missing dowry. The bride and groom kiss at the end of the ceremony, it is said, as an exchange - each partner sends a part themselves into the new spouse's soul. Here's an odd one from Scotland: The bride is supposed to meet her mother at the door after the ceremony who then must break a currant bun over her daughter's head if she wants a good marriage. And, the best one yet - If a cat sneezes on the day before her wedding, the bride will be ensured a happy union!
