Let’s Party, Brides-to–be!

Celebrating the last a few days to be single ladies before the bride stepping into marriage is a great idea. If you ate a bride-to-be, or you have friend who is going to get married, planning a single party to memorize the single days and prepare to welcome the new life. Here are some tips for you.

Tip1. Place

Renting a nice venue or holding the party at home are both ok. You can depend on your financial status to choose where to hold the party. If you are going to rock the party and play loud music, it is better not to have the party at your house. This is because the noise will bother other people’s life.

Tip2. Dressing

There are no strict dressing requirements for the single party. You can wear what to want. Dresses can range from regular shirts and jeans to pajamas and evening dresses. Just make yourself confident and comfortable. If the party has a theme, guests should choose their clothes accordingly.

Tip3. Guests

Who should be invited to the party? This is the question that should be answered by the bride-to-be. If she wants some intimate girl bonding, then, only her closest friends should be there. The party planner should not fail to ask the bachelorette for a list of girls that she wants to be around. Make sure that you do not miss a friend that the bride wants present at the party. Someone might get upset for not getting invited.

A Letter to All Brides-to-be

My dear bride:

What do you think marriage is? Someone says that marriage is the tomb of love. In recent years, more and more couples get divorced. It seems that divorce becomes a trend in this society. If this trend continues, it will bring more broken families and more social problems. For example, the juvenile delinquency happens more frequently in a divorced family or a single-parent home.

“……take you to be my wife/husband; to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, so long as we both shall live. ......” When couples decide to leave each other, do they still remember the vows they made on their wedding day?

People get divorced for many reasons. I understand that everyone wants a happy marriage. So when the marriage meets frustrations, some couples fail to overcome them, but some people find ways to get through.

In fact, there are many difficulties and reverses in our whole life time. We should take them as the sea waves which keep lapping the sand beach. To me, marriage is never the tomb of love. Instead, it is a sublimation of love.

There is another metaphor of marriage: marriage is a cup of tea. It will taste plain when time passed. Instead, I shall say that, marriage is a bottle of wine. The wine of marriage will taste better when it was aged.
