Wedding Planner Guide: All You Need For An Extraordinary Wedding

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

A wedding planner guide is the primary item you will need to keep your stress levels from escalating when you are beginning to plan your wedding. Because every bride wants to see her wedding day that she dreams about being perfect. But all things do not always go as well or smooth as we imagine. There are an enormous amount of details to think about when planning a wedding, no matter how large or small the reception is.

I attended a close friend’s wedding reception and watched as the groom came to the gift table and began going through the envelopes. To his dismay, he hadn’t remembered that he had to furnish tips to many of the service people at the reception. He was horrified to say the least, that he had to dip into his gifts which he was going to use for his honeymoon.

Most couples entering into marriage are young and this will be a new experience for the bride and groom. For my friend, it was a shock that the amount of money he paid for the wedding reception didn’t include tips. A wedding planner guide would have given him the tools he needed to know that it is vital to take notes whenever speaking with Vendors and write down exactly what is and isn’t included.

The last thing any bride or groom wants is a preventable mishap on their special wedding day. Photographers who show up with no film or omit the mother of the bride or other family members, or even worse, they don’t show up.

That is why it is critical to stay organized while planning your most cherished day of your life. Think about how disheartening it would make you feel to not have any photographs of your wedding to look back on.

An important aspect of planning your wedding is to know what needs to get accomplished first and how long you will have to do that. The more time you have before your wedding day, the easier it will be to plan. One year is good basis for wedding planning. If you do find yourself in a time crunch, you may want to look at utilizing a wedding planner or wedding consultant to assist you.

The wedding business is a huge profit making industry, but that doesn’t mean you have to cash in the farm to pay for them. If you pick your wedding date that is at least one year in the future, you can start saving money on your current bills and give up those expensive dates at restaurants.

Talk to other brides to be and network since everyone loves a good bargain. Sometimes you can negotiate if you have a network of brides in the picture. And stick to your wedding planner guide to help keep you on your time line.

Extramarital Affair Whereabouts - and Who is it with?

Knowing your partner is having extramarital affair with some other woman is devastating - but how do you find out some of the clues you need about it?

You just want to find out - and if you just know how…

Before you go any further though, realise that who he is cheating with might not be as important as looking for a solution in the first place. That other woman may just take a role of ‘the other woman’ or the role of ‘his escape’ from the marriage problem HE may be having.

It is up to you whether or not you want to find out about his extramarital affair - but remember that this is your choice for your peace of mind.

1. The Third Party

This is the first clue you want to find out. In fact, once you have a good idea on who the third party he is having his extramarital affair with, it is easier to guess on where and when the affair actually take place.

Ok, how would you find out?

Try to jot down a list of names - female names that he has mentioned in the past few weeks or recently. There won’t be many names. Also, since normally affair is unplanned in the beginning, he would have mentioned that name in conversation before.

Usually the other woman has something in common with the cheating spouse, something that can lead him into the ‘infatuation’ stage with her. Yes, so the name will somehow be blurted out…no excuse about it.

Note: It’s better if you don’t freak out or show your suspicion to him too much otherwise he would be much more careful in blurting out her name.

2. The activity

There must be things that they do - that you don’t normally do with your spouse - the things that they have in common. Of course, as it is an extramarital affair there would be some physical intimacy involved some other times too.

Example of the activities can be sport, skateboarding, skiing, the gym etc.

3. The Meeting Place

If you have a rough idea on what he normally enjoys doing you will be able to guess it. There is a few rules associated with this including the 50 mile rule: make sure you do it 50 mile away, and the ‘dangerous is safe’ rule: the more dangerous it seems the safer it would be (This means he will actually meet his other woman in YOUR area - or if you live with him he’ll meet his other woman in your place).

Another place is the workplace (Somewhere around his workplace).

4. When they are doing it?

Some women would ask me now: “If he dares to do it in MY OWN place - I live with him, WHEN?” especially if you’re hardly on holidays.

Ok, if you live with him he sure knows your schedule - or he may have been more interested in your activity and schedule lately. As he is very close with you, he knows exactly which ones of your schedule would likely go through versus the ones that you may cancel in the last minute.

Whether you like it or not, you will have fixed schedule such as ‘working late every Wednesday night’ or ‘Go out with the girls every Thursday night’. Some of them you just cannot get out of and he will use this very time to meet his significant other.

Planning A Wedding On A Small Budget Yet Creating A Dream Wedding

Planning a wedding on a small budget can be a legitimately discouraging task for the newly engaged bride and groom to be. Following the romantic marriage proposal with thoughts of how you are going to pay for the actual wedding can put a damper on your mood. The bride certainly doesn’t want to have to cut costs to have the dream wedding she has always thought about.

The cost of your wedding can get out of control when the new bride and groom to be begin to discuss their perfect wedding. With some creativity and cost cutting planning it doesn’t have to break the bank.

There are some incredible ways of cutting your wedding budget, including your wedding invitations, flower arrangements, the reception and yes, even the most important investment-your wedding dress. Vendors hear the word wedding and immediately over charge you based on the word wedding. You can cut these costs without giving up on those things that matter most to you.

Location of the wedding reception can determine the tone for all the other purchases involved with planning the wedding. Wedding reception costs take a huge chunk of your budget and this is where creative planning will work in your favor. Discounts on the reception can be had just by thinking of places that aren’t typical or popular among the cookie box wedding industry. Do you really need to hire a wedding consultant or wedding planner? It is your wedding so who else will have your best interests in planning your wedding?

The wedding dress is another place where you can save money. Since the bride is the one who will be searching for her perfect dress it may be easier to describe it to a trusted local seamstress and much less costly than to purchase from a store where they will add on alteration charges, delivery charges, fitting charges and more. If you are lucky, maybe the mother of the bride will have a dress she can pass down and you get to bring it in and just pay the alteration charges.

There are different ways of planning a wedding while sticking to your budget without making it look like you even had a budget. Planning a wedding with communication between the bride and groom and families are key to staying on top of the wedding costs.

Dating Tips for Men: Time Management - Part 2

Young men are taught that their urges is crude and silly, and that it is just a favor that women ALLOWS them to mate with them.

“Doofus dad” syndrome is another societal factor that I’m going on. In almost every TV commercial and sitcom, the “dad” or “boyfriend” or “husband” is a dopey, incompetent goof, and the mom/wife/girlfriend/daughter has to use her superior intelligence to fix the situation.

This will bring to the idea that the time of the women is more valuable than men because of the perception that women are “better.”

You will feel obligated to give a woman a LOT OF TIME if your time is not so valuable.

But here’s the thing - if you are giving a woman too much time, you won’t be present for most of that time. You will be distracted, resentful, you will give her your “half-assed” attention.

I realized this after analyzing tons and tons of dates I went on with women.

After a while I started giving women smaller amounts of my time, but my FULL ATTENTION.

Not only did this make our time better, it created MASSIVE ATTRACTION because I left women craving more.

Now my girlfriends can’t get enough of me - in fact, I don’t GIVE THEM “enough.”

Women can’t be pulled to what they already have. You see, “enough” would mean, “overexposure” to me.

I don’t recommend you play games with women and pretend to be busy or whatever. In fact, the proper way to manage your time is by being HONEST.

Just be real with her - don’t spend more time that you want. no need of games.

Be a man on the go - focus on your personal goals, and enjoy whatever free time you have with women.

Now in a short amount of time it requires that you are able to meet a lot of women, which I’ll have to cover in another newsletter.

It makes me sad to see men waste their lives chasing and “putting up with” women, and then they are buried in their coffin ALONE.

Remember that women aren’t property that you can keep or somehow bring with you when you die.

You can’t “keep” a woman by investing all your time with her.

Another point that I want to give - when you start being honest about how much time you’re going to give to a woman, you may feel GUILTY.

It’s either a girl will try to make you feel guilty, or you will feel it on your own. This is ok, it just means you have a weak focus.

You see, if you are following your true path, it will usually stray from the social norm.

If you are in the habit of adopting the values that others try to impose onto you, you will probably experience some tension, guilt, discomfort, even loneliness at first.

That’s why I set out on a journey to discover and develop the Attraction Code. It’s all about self-control, finding true path, and letting the real ‘you’ emerge from within.

And no, we don’t try to impose our values or goals onto you. We think you’ll be able to do that for yourself, given the proper guidance.

Managing Your Time when Meeting Women - Part 1

Dating can be your best friend.

…OR your worst enemy.

Often, a guy can feel like a slave to his biological need to procreate.

Then there goes a common quote, “He thinks with his… You know.”

Well it can be tough to NOT think that way if you aren’t sensually satisfied.

But men are also goal oriented.

We are doers, and need to achieve things and affect the world in a positive way.

Balancing the two - my urges and achieving my goals is one of the biggest challenges I’ve personally faced.

When you are single, dating can consume a lot of time. Women will suck away at your time if you don’t know what you’re doing.

Before you notice it, you are spending hours feeding the birds and cuddling in the park… now nothing wrong with spending a quality time with your girlfriend, AS LONG AS IT DON’T interferes YOUR GOALS IN LIFE.

Goals take time, and so do women.

In fact, it’s the nature of a woman to take up the man’s time - it’s her way of getting you to invest in her. That way if the woman gets pregnant there’s a less chance of you leaving (this comes from our caveman days, so to speak).

It is really tricky to manage your time with women. You see, giving their time to women is what most guys WANT to give. By nature men are “givers.” They like to please women, protect them, and give them good feelings.

There is also a urges in men that completely take over your thoughts.

Both of these things can get in the way of you making the most of your life, your time.

I want you to take a second and ask yourself, “WHAT DO I REALLY WANT TO GIVE TO WOMEN?”

Now I’m willing to bet it wasn’t “money,” or “lots of my free time,” or “control over my life.”

It was probably something like “relaxation, excitement, feeling of safety, good feelings, sexual pleasure, make her smile or feel good about herself, etc.”

There are two ways that I think why men have problems with how they use their time with women.

First, they overcompensate with other stuff - like spending too much time or money on a woman because they think that the gifts they REALLY wanted to give aren’t that valuable.

Second, men think that they are “getting” something valuable when a girl spends time with them.

Guys was brainwash by the society to believe that women are a prize to attain, and that there’s some inherent value in a pretty face.

It’s not TRUE!

The best naturals out there see women for what they are, nothing more, nothing less. They are cute, sometimes fun, but ultimately not that important, AND THEY CAN’T COMPLETE YOUR LIFE!

Now it is really hard to break out of this mental prison of feeling inferior to women.

It is hard to notice the mental habits because these are subtle and you’ve been doing them for years.

Get Your Ex Back: Get Your Ex Back; Guaranteed 2 Proven Ways

Do you want your ex back but think that it is far from reality that you can get him or her back. Maybe you allowed yourself to get taken by infidelity and you feel that it is impossible to get your true love back. You realize it was a mistake and you want your ex back regardless of the problems the two of you were having. Maybe you understand what the late singer Luther Vandrous was saying in his song; “I’d rather have bad times with you; than happy times with someone else.”

Every relationship have issues. Are you willing to work at them to get your ex back?

If the answer is yes to the one that you truly love and that person is your ex, then let’s get to work on getting your ex back. If you put these proven strategies to work then you and your ex may be going out to dinner tomorrow night.

1. The use of words. Words are magical and powerful. Just like the bad words that separated the two of you there are words that can bring the two of you back together. Words can literally cast a spell on your ex to get him or her to come back to you. You just need to know what they are and how and when to use them.

Pleading and begging is not an option. Not only is it not an option but it makes you look desperate; and that is not the goal here.

The thing that will get your ex’s attention is by making the situation interesting so that they are curious. These two methods together will almost put them in a state of trance. They will for a while forget about what separated the two of you in the first place. This for sure will get you the result you are looking for.

For example; you call your ex up in a friendly voice and leave him/her a voice mail message saying; “Karen, hi it’s John. I just wanted to let you know that I really appreciated what you did for me. Give me a call back so that I can thank you in person”. Who can resist that?

After you have gotten your ex to call you back you have to go into the next strategy.

2. The Set Up - Before your ex calls you back you have to know exactly what you are thanking him/her for. This can be a tricky step if you do not use it wisely.

A word of caution when using these two powerful strategies. If you apply them without knowing how to use them correctly; then you can do more harm than good in getting your ex back. What you do before, during and after you perform these techniques are more important than getting your ex to respond. So make sure you use them correctly in order to get the results you want.

Now that you know what to do; you are on your way to getting your ex back; that being said get your ex back before someone else steals his/her heart.

Managing Your Time when Meeting Women - Part 2

It is taught to young men that their physical urges is crude and silly, and that women are just doing a favor to sleep with them.

Enjoy whatever free time you have with women but still with focus on your personal goals. Be the man on the go.

Now this requires that you are able to meet a lot of women in a short amount of time, which I’ll have to cover in another newsletter.

It makes me sad to see men waste their lives chasing and “putting up with” women, and then they are buried in their coffin ALONE.

Investing all your time with a woman is not a guarantee that you can “keep” her.

It’s either a girl will try to make you feel guilty, or you will feel it on your own. This is ok, it just means you have a weak focus.

Dating Tips for Men: Time Management - Part 1

Dating can be your best pal.

…OR your big enemy.

A lot of time, a man can feel like a slave to his natural need to procreate.

Then there goes a common quote, “He thinks with his… You know.”

Well it can be tough to NOT think that way if you aren’t sensually satisfied.

But men are also goal oriented.

We need to achieve things and influence the world in a good way. And we are doers of it.

I’ve personally faced one of the biggest challenges and it is balancing the two - my carnal obsession and achieving my goals.
