Diet Your Way Into Your Wedding Dress

Posted on Dec 30, 2008 under Beauty Care, Bridal Gang, Cake/Food, Gown, Health, Honeymoon, Musing | No Comment

I don’t know about other women out there but I became really complacent lately, even to the extent of being lazy, and would eat just about anything and not worry about how much weight I put on or how I looked once the spouse and I became comfortable with each other.  My only consolation is that I don’t like fried food or sweets, so desserts or junk food is pretty much out.  But we all know that a lot of us are so used to fried food, and the greasier the better.

You and I want to fit into our wedding dresses though right?  Yes, you do!  So where does one start? A no food diet? A vegetable diet? Or a fruit diet? Or some even go for the carb diet? Yes, everyone swears up and down and high and low that their diet works.  But a diet that works for someone else may not work for you, so a little research is necessary, that is where Diet Review comes in, it’s the place to go to for honest reviews to help you decide whether Food Network Chef Ellie Krieger’s healthy living, customized plans are suitable for you.  Or maybe exercising the way Denise Austin believes in is your way of fitting into that dream wedding dress of yours.  Don’t forget the Duke Diet that helps you to think positively and encourages only a healthy approach towards weight loss.  Free diet evaluation and information at your finger tips.  So if you wanna get into your wedding dress you now know where to find the right diet.

Very unique right..??  To use the tea sachet, unwrap the protective cover and stand the infuser in your cup. Pour boiling water in and exquisite tea will start to brew. The sachet maintains its elegant form, and the upward lifted leaf and cotton stem creates a convenient handle.  Order from Beau Coup.

Caterer For My “Wedding”

Posted on Sep 25, 2008 under Bridal Gang, Cake/Food, Musing, Wedding Invites | No Comment

Well.. you kinda gotta feed your guests right..??  and no way .. am i feeding them Macdonalds like one of the man’s friend did.  It was horrid..!! sorry… but it sure wasn’t unique.  Going to a kid’s birthday party.. and having nuggets and burger is fine.. but no way for a wedding.

So what kind of food is good for a wedding..?? well that actually depends on where your wedding will be .. and what kinda theme you chose right..?? mine is a beach wedding.. and in the summer.. so it has gotta be catered .. but i’m NEVER serving pizza to my guests of course..!  NO WAY..!  or hot dog please..!!!

Now .. what would my guests think if i served them Sushi for my wedding by the beach..?  or even some take out noodles..?? how about a roast pig ..??  now that would go interesting eh..??  as much as i said no BBQ .. that may be the way we might have to go.. since it is a beach theme.. but what do we serve..?? hmmm.. gotta really sit down and think about it.. and the budget.

Bride & Groom Party Picks

Posted on Aug 29, 2008 under Cake/Food, Decorations, Theme | No Comment

Nice eh..?? these party picks are pretty retro yet romantic and great for using to decorate your wedding cakes.. or the drinks of your guest. Of course if you want to use them for the bridal shower or engagement party .. now that would be another idea too. I really liked it.. i wonder if i can incorporate this in my wedding without overspending. A set of 12 picks cost $7.95 .. and the best part of these picks are you can see both the front and the back of the groom and bride. Pretty awesome.. and great stuff. Order them from the Spoon Sisters.

Fruits Tarts & Wedding Invitations

Posted on Aug 23, 2008 under Cake/Food, Tradition, Wedding Invites | No Comment

In the Chinese tradition, we give away ..  “wife biscuit” together with the wedding invitation card.  But since i can’t find the traditional “wife biscuit” .. i have no choice but to give these fruit tarts with my invitations. Now ordering it from a local bakery isn’t gonna be easy.. because we don’t have very many here.  The one that would do it.. i’m not really crazy about their tarts.. so i’m gonna ask the local grocery store if they could do it for me.. and as cheap as possible please.

Choosing The Wedding Cake

Posted on Jun 16, 2008 under Cake/Food | No Comment

A great wedding cake is very important in a wedding reception. And since i am having my wedding outdoor.. and during the summer.. i want something of course not expensive.. but bright in color.. and stand out. And something that my guests would remember.. for a long time. I’ve attended weddings .. where the wedding cakes were pathetic..!! i didn’t even eat them.

My wedding cake needs to be affordable, pretty .. but gotta be chocolate cake inside..! This wedding cake is from Layers Wedding Cakes In Halifax Nova Scotia. They offer many flavor, like Chocolate, Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla, Marble, Luscious Lemon, Red Velvet, and more. The fillings for the cake can be Buttercream, Madagascar Vanilla, Lemon, Raspberry and Strawberry.

Cupcakes are becoming more and more popular .. i wonder if i should choose cupcakes instead.. afterall.. they are easier to distribute to the guests eh. This is from Sweet Celebration Wedding Cakes in Ontario. I wished they would put a price on their website.. that way .. one can kind find out … what they have to spend on their wedding cake.
