“Anti-Bride Wedding Planner: Hip Tools and Tips for Getting Hitched - by Carolyn Gerin, Kathleen Hughes & Amy Glynn Hornick - 144 pages.

Tie the knot outside the box armed with this companion volume to the wildly popular Anti-Bride Guide. Featuring sassy and savvy ideas, useful questionnaires, handy pockets, and space for notes and doodles, the Anti-Bride Wedding Planner provides creative inspiration for brides-to-be who want to kick the conventional wedding to the curb. “

Many people like the idea of an Asian themed wedding, but many picture a woman in a kimono and headgear, with lots of gold and red kanji as decorations. This, of course, is not the sum and total of an Asian themed wedding. Asia is a lot more than just Japan or China, and this article will give you ideas from all over the continent.

First of all, let’s start with Japan. For a Japanese wedding, you could have your bridesmaids wear kimonos instead of Western bridesmaids dresses. The decorations can be red and gold, both good luck colors in Japan. For the ceremony, you could include the sake ceremony. This is when the bride and groom take nine sips of sake, working their way up from tiny cups to big cups. And don’t forget, in Japan, a wedding is not between a man and a woman-it is between two families. All of your planning should keep this in mind. After all, you’ll be living with your spouse for the rest of your life. Wouldn’t it be nice to include your family and his in the ceremony?

For the favors, you could give guests red envelopes with coins in them. This is another traditional good luck gift, normally given to the bride and groom, but in this case perfectly suitable for the occasion. Or, if you can find them, decorate the tables with small bonsai trees, and let the guests take them home at the end of the reception. This type of garden based favor is twofold; not only is it pretty, but practical too.

China’s traditions are similar, but not quite the same. Try to make your wedding on the half hour instead of on the hour. This belief stems from the idea that couples should start their lives together with the hands of time going up instead of down. A fun one for the bride is the idea of three dresses on the big day. The first one is the wedding dress, worn during the ceremony. The second one is the party dress, worn during the banquet or reception. And the last one is the going-away dress for the honeymoon. Many American brides already change after the wedding, but the change usually involves one other dress, not two.

Chinese favors can include things like chopsticks or anything with the symbol for “shuangxe”, or “double happiness”, on it will work nicely. Dragons and phoenixes are symbols of fidelity and happiness, and work as lovely decorations as well.

Last but not least, let’s talk about a little discussed part of Asia-India. Indian wedding traditions are just as beautiful as other Asian countries, although not necessarily as well known. In India, as part of the pre wedding ceremonies, the bride and her bridesmaids and family get together for a ladies sangeet. We would think of this as a bachelorette party. Unlike the stereotypical American version, however, the women in question meet at the bride’s home and bond with each other. One of the activities includes mehindi, or henna decoration. The belief is that the process is symbolic of the love between the bride and groom, and the stronger the color, the stronger the love. For the ceremony itself, the bride wears (depending on the region) a traditional red salwar kameez or langa as her wedding dress. The best part about these dresses is that they flatter just about everyone! Favors for this kind of wedding can be items like sandalwood fans, incense cones, or even little mehindi kits. Your guests will love the uniqueness and creativity behind each one.

It’s possible to have a beautiful Asian themed wedding without being disrespectful to the culture. With a little research, time and talent, your guests and you will have a wedding to remember.

If you are going to marry this girl, she will need to see your entire life including bank accounts, tax returns etc. She will need to carry and present these kinds of documents to the embassy officer during her interview. So do not trust until you are 100% sure.

There are a lot of stories of people trusting too much when dating someone from another country. If you do a Google search on Blacklisted Russian Women or Blacklisted Ukrainian Women, you will find over a million sites on just this topic.

What does the word Blacklisted Russian Woman or Blacklisted Ukrainian Woman mean? It is when a woman from a country other than the USA is reported as scamming money or visa help.

Here are the signs of a scammer:

A scammer will have an immediate attraction to you. She will often immediately start using words like, I love you or lead you to believe she is ready to marry you. Women that do this are great at making you feel like you are the only man for them. Yet in reality they are speaking to others.

The more guys they can talk to at one time the more potential for making money.

Ask yourself this question. If you met someone for the first time here in the USA and she started to tell you within the first few days of meeting you that she loved you, would you feel comfortable? Most people would say no. So why would someone from another country make you feel any different? You have not met her and you do not really know her true intentions.

A major red flag is the girl wanting to come visit you in the USA. These girls are not dumb. They know the laws better than you do. They know that it is impossible for them to come to the USA for just a visit. All she wants is for you to send her the money to pay for a visa that does not exist. She gets the money and you get scammed. If you are not sure of this, then just pick up the phone and call the USCIS 1-800-375-5283. They will be happy to explain the laws to you.

Just a side note: I tried this myself when I was dating my Ukrainian Fiance. I tried to get her a B-2 tourist visa and was immediately denied. I worked hard on preparing the visa documents and sent all the right information. Yet, she was still denied. So dont try it, it is a waste of your time and money.

If there is any mention of money after meeting or within the first two months, it is time to walk away. A high percentage of these women that ask for money are scammers. If she starts to talk to you like this, just tell her you dont want to talk about money until after you meet her. Most of the time the girl will go away on her own and stop communication with you. You are no longer the right kind of prey. So she starts to focus her words on other opportunities.

Keep in mind that the girl in the picture is not really her. Most of the time, the picture is of an actress or model. Sometimes that person behind the picture can be a guy.

Time for these scammers is limited. They need to get as much money as possible out of you before they are caught.

After you send them money, they completely disappear. There will be no more communication and your money will disappear with them. No investigation will ever be done. No one will care except for you. The typical method of sending money is through Western Union. All these scammers know the ins and outs of Western Union.

It is a hard life where these girls come from and corruption is wide spread.

Now these girls are really good at what they do. They will have a story for all your questions. Dont think it will be easy to catch them at their game. Some will even call you multiple times a week to convince you they are real.

To summarize, make sure you meet your fiance many times before trusting her with your money or personal information. One mistake can cost you a lifetime of grief. Keep in mind that although your girl might be showing these signs of being a scammer, she might be legitimate. In my next article I will show you how to know for sure if she is real or not.

Understand attraction: What makes a man tick must first be established before you will be able to pinpoint what attracts him to a woman. Take time and do a little snooping and research on things that interest the man you have in your sight. Approach the man subtly. Do not come across as being intimidating and forceful. He will feel suffocated even before any affair or relationship is initiated. This feeling will make the man run so fast not even leaving his shoes behind. The utmost discretion must be exercised during the courting phase to identify the ways to attract men to you.

No chemistry, no passion: Pay attention to chemistry. If there is no chemistry between you and the guy you are just wasting your time. Without that sparks from both sides, there will be no basis to build anything on. Don’t let your desire in wanting the man over shadow your common sense. Attraction cannot be created, its something that occurs naturally and we all know anything that is forced or made-up will never have the strength and commitment to sustain.

Radiate confidence : Nothing attracts a man more than a woman who knows where she is going and what she wants. A woman with a plan and vision for her future. Confidence should be radiated as men loves this character trait. Confidence shows immediately during a good conversation. Do not be over confident either. Nothing is a greater turn off to men then a woman with inflated and unrealistic ideas.

Make him want you: Nothing on earth strokes a mans’ ego more as being seen with an attractive, well groomed woman. He will feel instantly attracted to you if you look good and make him feel good.

Way with the at home clothes: Dump those comfortable-at-home outfits and 100% cotton underwear and substitute it with some silk, lace and velvet thingies. Invest in something that he will like. Men are attentive creatures and no amount of effort will go unnoticed!

A woman sees her wedding day as quite possibly the most important and memorable day of her entire life. There are what seem to be a million details involved in the planning of every wedding. A wedding planner is a professional hired to help the bride create the wedding of her dreams. If you have ever thought of becoming a wedding planner yourself, here are a few guidelines explaining how to become a wedding planner.

Being the wedding planner is a job that involves taking responsibility, the stress and details away from the bride on her big day and making it so that she can enjoy her day to the fullest. As a wedding planner you need to be a stickler for details and have great organizational skills. You will also need to work long hours and have an open personality which will allow you to work with everyone on the build up and on on the big day - these could include the bride and groom and their families, the photographer and the florist to name a few.

Wedding planners need to be capable of handling any situation that arises. You will need to be able to soothe a frantic bride, as well as assure family members and friends that everything is running smoothly. It can sometimes feel like you are juggling several issues at one time, especially on the actual wedding day. It is also crucial for a wedding planner to not only look professional, but to conduct themselves in a manner worthy of receiving others’ trust (and money). Does the basic requirements on how to become a wedding planner scares you? Well, don’t be.

A wedding planner will need to manage and direct all of the different things that will go into the wedding ceremony and the reception, which will be planned and carried out from whatever the happy couple request. You will also be the sole contact for the different contractors who will supply a range of different items for the wedding day; you will need to communicate, negotiate prices and secure contracts with these suppliers to ensure that the wedding day goes smoothly as possible.

Before launching a career in this field of expertise, it is important to have some insight on how to become a wedding planner. A bridal consultant training course is essential for anyone considering the occupation of a wedding planner. Styles of weddings today incorporate a wide range of expectations, tradition, and customs.

After taking the different courses on how to become a wedding planner, you should look at registering your business. You will find that many states require business name or license for you to operate as a business. And, after you have been approved for these two, you will be able to have some business cards printed and start to market your very own wedding planning business.

You should then think about further promoting your services by advertising your services on your own wedding planning website. You will find that the brides of today are very busy ladies and instead of spending time on the phone or looking in the local phone book for information, they will be looking for a wedding planner online. If you are serious about having a wedding planning business then you will need to have a physical office where you can meet the bride and groom.

Once you are starting to make some headway and really learning how to become a wedding planner, you should buy two very important things that you will need for your business - an attorney and business insurance. After you have these it means that you and your business are covered should something happen.

You’ve heard the story before. You’ve witnessed it on the big screen. In Hollywood flicks, like You’ve Got Mail and Must Love Dogs, the leading man and his female counterpart meet online and they fall in love. Virtual romance blossoms everywhere.

If you think about it, it’s easy to trace the evolution of the whole online dating phenomenon. It’s a consequence of email, instant messaging, and social networking. The internet has brought humans together in a way that never was possible before. The natural extension, of course, is online dating. And more now than ever before, people are using the internet to find romance.

At the beginning, online personals seemed just plain odd. It was something reserved for, misfits, losers and cranks. But today, that stigma has been shrugged off and legions of people are taking to the net with the hopes of finding companionship and the ever elusive true love.

Whoever came up with the idea to charge for the service, to cover for allowing people to scroll through personal profiles and connect, must have been a genius, because today these sites have become virtual gold mines.

Online dating really became popular in the early 2000s. That’s when services like Match.com, eHarmony, and Yahoo Personals first cropped up and took off with a skyward trajectory. In August of 2003 alone, online personals drew over 40 million unique visitors in the United States. In terms of traffic, that’s a huge number.

If you aren’t up to speed with this world of online personals, it may seem like a complete mystery. But its actually pretty simple, and it makes sense. Personals are simply profiles. If you have a profile on a social networking site like Facebook or Bebo, then you already have a grasp of online personals. These are slightly more tailored than regular profiles, however. They include info about your physical characteristics, your weight, your hair color, your ethnicity, your lifestyle choices, your social background, your religion and even your eating and drinking and partying habits. Users usually include a quick description of themselves and they also jot down something about what they are looking for in a mate.

Users contact and connect via site based messaging. Most online personal sites also have a system in place for users to express interest without actually saying anything concrete, e.g. winking or poking. The idea is that users can browse through profiles, find someone that tickles their fancy, contact them and eventually meet up, face to face, for a real date.

Most online daters will attest that they like online dating better than dating in meatspace. Online personals are much simpler. They are more specific, more discerning. In the offline world, you’re limited to people you meet in your town. Online you can meet people from all over the globe. And you can filter out those people who don’t fit your idea of a match and concentrate on profiles that actually do seem appealing.

And perhaps true love waits just beyond the flickering computer screen. That’s the hope, after all.

Of course the online dating scene isn’t without its pitfalls. Many people tend to fib. They exaggerate their physical characteristics. They put down phony birth dates, they lower their weight, they make themselves taller, blonder, tanner than they really are. Some people even post fake pictures.

But these types of fisherman’s stories can usually be rooted out easily. For the most part, online dating works wonderfully. People really can meet their one and only on the net.
