Namaste
In this case, since neither one of them has parents, the gifts will come from the bride.
What would be suitable for her to give him?
Also, what gifts or flowers are to be given to the wedding guests?
Other suggestions, especially since neither bride or groom has family, but both have friends.
Thank you in advance

What clothes does a fashionable man wear for his wedding? And garlands for him, please? And gifts for him?
clothes for the fashionable bridegroom?- why? gym clothes of course!
but class and style are only displayed by formal suits or at least full length shirts, trousers and a long think blingy chain-from the neck.
The bride could really gift him that mobile/laptop/designer clothes/watch/electric shave etc he always wanted.
Flowers should be colourful and neither red nor white (they symbolise funerals! for Heaven's sake!)
Reply:Myself, I wear a Kilt. A personal gift that just he would enjoy? I would say a bottle of Scotch, his favorite cigar.
But usually the gifts are bought for both of them.

'Alice in Wonderland' themed party?
So im turning 15 next month, and i've been looking for ideas for my party. I've come across a masked ball, water party, poker party and then i came across 'Alice in Wonderland' themed party. Ive been researching some ideas and ive put them together with some of my own, im not sure if its too childish, because i dont want to seem babyish, almost like im just getting away with it, if you know what i mean.
If you have any ideas, please tell, it will be much appreciated:
My Idea:
1. Playing cards as invitations
2. Tea Party in conserventry
3. Croquet in garden
4. Poker and music in living room
5. Flowers throughout the house
6. Guests dress up as Wonderland characters
7. Playing card garlands
8. Food labelled 'Eat Me' and 'Drink Me'
10. Photoes of me and friends in 'Wonderland'.
'Alice in Wonderland' themed party?
That's unbelievably creative and imaginative! (Score!)
I think this sounds like it could be loads of fun, especially if people come in fancy dress and you call it your Un-UnBirthday Party!
If you need any more inspiration, try the links below.... and you might want to have a parent with bunny ears declare "We're late, we're late for a very important date" as you usher your friends to the dining area...
Have fun and Happy Birthday!
Reply:No problem - Happy Birthday, sweetheart :) Report It
Reply:I don't have any ideas on how to make this party any better, but I have to say, it sounds like it'll be a blast. I asked my 14 year old niece about it just now and she thought it was a really cool idea!
Reply:sounds great try ebay and such for costumes and party supplies even if you dont buy from there it gives you some ideas hope you have a great day :)
Reply:Alice and Wonderland isn't such a bad theme for a 15-year-old girl's party. i mean, if you want to have that party cause you like it, then go right ahead.
Reply:I must admit I'm sorry I didnt think of that myself! :)
Dressing up sounds really cool--you should be Alice of course.
Check stores like Party America or Oriental Trading Company for your card garland and table settings.
And you could look on ebay for costumes and signs.
Also, I would suggest asking each invitee what they plan to dress up as to make sure you dont have too many chesire cats!
It sounds like a fantastic party!
Reply:Sounds neat. Check party supply stores for themed decorations and make sure you have people coming as all the different characters so you don't have all bunnies and no mad hatter!
Reply:that sounds like an awesome party!
Reply:Dress up as your favorite character ?
or is that too little kidish ? lol.

Something for spring. It's just a rough draft. Might not be as good as the last. What do you think?
Spring Steps In
O, with welcomed, raptued sighs,
the meadow, at last, spring came and called.
With long and twisting, budding eyes,
the trees lavished their green-entralled.
The flowers offered their best perfumes
to scent her sacred bed while birds
wild with their holy tunes danced about
her garland'd head.
I think that when the leaves are just budding on the trees and not fully out yet they are like the trees eyes.
Something for spring. It's just a rough draft. Might not be as good as the last. What do you think?
This is quite lovely. The imagery is clear and elegant, creating a wonderful spring picture of a tree in the meadow, attending by songbirds. I think it is a beautiful poem. Thank you.

Reply:i dont like it. sorry. i hate spring, so that might be part of it

Lorraine and I enjoyed the things of nature, until she had TB in her hip. She spent two years in hospital
With tenderness did I first hold you in my arms, my child.
My first-born babe, my daughter whose life would entwine
itself with mine. For we did by blood, inherit the love of England's fields and flowers. All that did run and creep and fly did by gift belong to us.
Oh, thou of beauty fair, whose tresses of golden sunlight did garland thy face in framed perfection to others envy. In childish glee did thou set thy path to follow that of thy father, who in joy did find happiness in the company of thine innocence.
We two, with delight in our hearts did seek that in natures bounteous beauty, freely given, and eagerly sought, all that was minute to others eyes. Thus in perfect relationship did thou impart unto I and I likewise unto thee a bond of undissoluble cord.
Is this acceptable?

Reply:Acceptable? Absolutely
Exceptional writing, and I enjoyed reading it. I can feel the love and tenderness felt by both. I don't generally get misty over poetry, but this one got me. Well done.
Reply:A touching and beautiful tribute to a daughter. (One error: you must say "me" instead of "I" thy father, since you need a direct object pronoun rather than a subject pronoun).
Reply:This is a beautiful poem for your daughter. I am moved and yes it is more than acceptable. Very good. Exceptional,
Reply:Oh Robert, I was moved to tears by this tribute. It is so lovely. It is more then acceptable. It is so heartfelt.

Base of a lilac color for my wedding but what would best my best accent colors??! Help!?
I am having an outdoor wedding this August with the base color of light purple (varying shades between periwinkle and lavender), but I am stuck! What would be my best bet for my accent colors? Now I already have a lot of white things (garland etc, plus my guest book and pillows) but, what would be a stand out color to go with lilac that I could incooperate in everything?!
I need to have something that stands out but nothing too gawdy.
Also best answer will go to whoever can help me figure out how to implement that color(s) on my tables, flowers, etc and be able to know where to put all the colors together at!
Thanks!
Base of a lilac color for my wedding but what would best my best accent colors??! Help!?
BEAUTIFUL color choice! I would say SILVER. It is something that could be incorperated into everything and gives a very modern feel compared to old which has more of a vintage feel to it. here are some Ideas:
Flowers:
Siver Ribbon wrapped around the boquet along with silver baby leaves (fake)
Centerpiece:
It depends on what is is but a cool Idea would be to buy some small decorative candle mirrors (biglots would have them cheep) and place fresh purple flowers in vintage or modern sinver vases. or use the same mirrors and place glass bowls with lilac colored water (food dye) and multipurple glass pebbeles in the bottom (that is what I used for my wedding except pink and silver were my colors.)
Purple and silver tulle bows:
Take the two color and make big bows to line your walk way secure with (fake) pearl pushpins (the big ones) and tape if you need it. Fluff tulle after hanging.
Dinnerware:Purple Napkins and silver silverware (lol!)
tables: if you are doing round tables then place longer silver round table cloths on the bottom and top with a smaller purple tablecloth.
To hold favors and such: buy some wood baskets and spray paint them silver. then buy some purple fabric and line them.
I really hope this helps. :) I can send you some pictures from my wedding if you would like a visual. Just email me. Congrats! ~Brooke
Reply:Think contrast but similar not too far apart on the color wheel. Since your wedding is in August tap into fall colors. Maybe a burgundy red or cranberry. They sell black cherry colored calla lillies that you could mix in with your other flowers. You could also do ribbons on your favors, petals on your tables....once you pick your color you can do anything.
I think I would stay away from pastel or "light" color shades because they will blend too much with the lilac and periwinkle. That and with all the white you're using, consider something darker to really make the accents pop.
Reply:Lilac with celadon green and cream. Your husband-to-be might appreciate having some green in there too!

Reply:A nice yellow would be beautiful; you could also have a petal pink or go with a darker purple.
For our wedding we had lilac, pink, yellow and light teal - so had lots of fun coordinating and decorating!
Reply:I used lilac in my wedding and I also used deep purple. I got married in October, by the way, but I still think it looked great!
Reply:Black! It will really make your white and purple colors pop! And it will give an elegant feel to it.(even though you are outside)
Reply:A sort pink color called Ashes of Roses.
Reply:Maybe a light yellow...
Reply:baige or a light green
Reply:They and work out some complimentary colours. Get a swatch of your lilac fabric and place it against other colours to see what jumps out at you. (an easy way to do this is to go to davidsbridal.com and find a bridesmaid dress with a sash or accent, shange the dress colour to lilac and slowly select the rest of the colour choices to change the sash colour.)
Personally this is what i have...
My bridesmaids are wearing lilac, my flowergirl is in pink and the mothers have chosen to wear green.
My flowers/bouquets are light and dark pink roses with lilac orchids to tie the colours together, green in the leaves.
The boys are in black and white with the colours brought in with their buttonholes. (Black and white for all their clothing including ties only colour in flowers)
My tables are being set with white table cloths with white roses and greeenery as table centres with pink and lilac coloured petals scattered. There will also be candles lighting the individual place settings for guests.
Your accent colours would become smaller items of your wedding. Ties, buttonholes, focus table settings etc with lilac being some part of everything (lilac tape/binding on a pink bouquet so the flowers stand out from the outfits etc)
Reply:I'm having an August wedding and I am using plum/eggplant purple as a secondary color to lilac and white. I love the way the lilac and the dark purple tones meld together. They have a lot of things in this color of dark purple and there is a bold contrast between the light and dark. I'm having plum tableclothes w/ lilac runners and plum candles w/ floral arrangments of mainly lilac colors w/ some plum. The cake will have both colors. Most of the tulle will be lilac w/ some plum. I'm tying lilac bows around the back of the chairs. I was thinking about, but decided against, using maroon and gold. I still love the colors together, but decided using lilac and plum would be easier. Do a search on Butterfly Wishes in Precious Jewels; it has the lilac, maroon, and gold. :) Good luck.
Reply:I think green would look really nice.
Or silver.
Or you could go with a darker colour purple for your accent colour (e.g. plum)

Reply:Well... With Lilac a very pretty and pop of color is salmon/coral it will add that bit of late summer/fall (august) color pallet... As far as the decore the biggest thing is to have fun keep it simple but elegant. honestly stay with white table clothes and tie a lilac sash around chairs now for centerpieces a nice tall clear vase w/ the i believe its something like grass you can swirl in the vase and do a simple but colorful (oranges limes lilacs yellows) arrangement on the top w/ a possible whimsical touch by adding several flowers to add height... or if you are just doing it outside open air you could def. do several vases on the table of different heights and add candles to some and in other simple fill with water and add a nice large bloom of hydrengea or an orchid to float it is very simple and beautiful!!! hope this helps!!! oh but if you do have it outside in a tent or even a room I would add some crystals some how to add a little bling or sparkle!!!

Reply:Well as Beltane is a Celtic festival, I'm incorporating some older traditions. I'll be extinguishing all the lights in my house and lighting a single candle. A far cry from a bonfire I know, but I'm sure a bonfire in an apartment building would go against restrictions hehe.
Then, after a brief ritual, I will "re-light" my candles one by one. I won't be jumping over any though.
Add: Wow why are people giving thumbs-down to Moiraes Fate? She can't help it if she's busy and can't observe it. Up until yesterday I thought I was going to be like that.
Reply:again Belatine is an irish custom and means May.the so-called fire festival is the lighting of a bonfire and the village gathers around in, eats and chats until the fire has gone out.we do not jump over it any more.
Reply:I didn't even think about it. Things have been so hectic with the moving to a new country thing in the last month that it didn't even occurr to me. Honestly, I doubt I'll do anything. I have more important things to worry about.
Reply:I'm going on a picnic this weekend. :-D
And I'll probably prune back my dad's plants. I can make garlands out of the flowers. It's about the season to start drying blooms again... At least here in the south.
Reply:Candles flowers broom and food! Yes, I do celebrate! Have fun!
