REAL WEDDINGS
 After five years, Wilson proposed. “We both enjoy traveling,” he says, “so I wanted to make the proposal place a special destination, without being in a very public or crowded area.” He chose to pop the question in Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico, on limestone cliffs overlooking the ocean at sunset. Stacey didn’t expect the proposal at all, for she didn’t even know that Wilson had purchased a ring.

A signature drink, the “Pink Moment Martini,” was created to honor Ojai’s famed “pink moment,” when the setting sun casts a rosy glow on the surrounding mountaintops.

 Once the couple was seated under a cloth canopy (held by happily married women who are mothers), some of the women began stitching strands made of seven colors on the cloth. “The seven strands are all the primary colors, for shutting out naysayers,” said Golnar. Then two pieces of crystallized sugar, Kalleh Ghand, were rubbed together over the couple to sweeten their life.

# 6 RECIPES FOR FAVORS
Gather together the favorite recipes that you remember as a child. They could be special family recipes, holiday menus, etc. Have them bound in small books, affix a wedding label on the front with your monogram and date that you were married. And there you have it, a unique favor that your guests will use again and again. Also, it is a wonderful way to acknowledge grandmothers and mothers.

# 1 - LOUNGING ANYWHERE
Wonder what to do to a resort ballroom to make it more interesting and intimate? You can create individual lounge areas by renting tents of sheer flowing fabric and adding sofas and coffee tables with lots of candlelight in them. You’ve suddenly created that romantic lounge atmosphere in a standard ballroom and given it more intimacy. Your guests can move to different “rooms” during the cocktails hour or or they can dance the night away. Jill La Fleur, The Wedding Planner

#11 QUICK FIX
Traveling with an emergency kit is like the American Express campaign, “Don’t leave home without it.” It should have everything from panty hose and nail glue to smelling salts and Tums, but the most commonly used item is SAFETY PINS! Although you should have a needle and thread, I have resorted to using safety pins for fixing hems on tuxedos, bustling the brides gown, pinning broken bra straps and creating a veil or headpiece out of tulle when the bride’s was left at home. Safety pins are great for a “quick fix.”
