Your rings are not just a part of your wedding, they are also a symbol of your care and love for each other. Therefore, you will need to choose what rings you get very carefully. The most traditional of metals for rings. For some, gold is a symbol of the warmth and love. The mark inside the band can be used to see what quality the gold is. The most common qualities are 14k, 18k, or 24k. While 24k is the purest gold, it is also the softest. If you use your hands a lot you may want to choose 14k or 18k to prevent wear and tear. Engagement Ring Styles: Since they will be wearing the ring for the rest of their lives, it is best to plan out the type of rings you desire. There are a few different ways to choose rings. The first option is to pick out an engagement ring together, however this will require proposing without a ring. While this does make sure that she likes the ring that she will have, some people strongly feel that this route robs the engagement of romance. On the other hand, you may be able to take their best friend or a family member for some special bonding time while you pick out a ring. The other option is to study the type of jewelry that they wear. You will need to know what type of metal they prefer, keep in mind some people are allergic to certain metals, and the kind of look they prefer. If you do not know their ring size it can help to “borrow” one of their current rings so you are able to get a good match. Yellow gold: White Gold: White is hot trend because it matches well with silver and platinum jewelry without being as expensive as platinum. Platinum: A very stylish and strong metal. Its strength makes it a fitting symbol of enduring love. Because it’s not mixed with lesser metals, like gold is, platinum is a safe choice for those with allergies. However, platinum is much more expensive than yellow or white gold. Wedding Band Styles: The best path to follow when choosing your wedding band is to follow your instincts. Keep in mind that is a choice you will have to live with so do not choose rashly. The traditional plain gold wedding band will be in style for years to come. If you are not interested in a plain look you can find simple wedding bands with designs engraved on them. Another option is to be a bit flashier with insetted jewels in the band. Some couples also prefer to have something engraved on the ring. J EWE LLE RY Custom made jewellery for a unique look every time. E S TA B L I S H E D 1 9 7 7 Your best bet is to choose a wedding band that you feel fits you and your personality as well. If you want to go out of the box and need some inspiration, look online to see what some other people have done with their wedding bands. What it comes down to is what you like and are, ultimately, happy with. Platinum, Gold or Silver? Many couples choose to have a matching engagement ring and wedding band. However, do not feel obligated to do this as well. In the end you can always wear both rings, such as having the engagement ring on your right hand and the wedding band on the left. You can even wear a similar style in different metals. Consider what each of you wear regularly. Do you have other silver jewelry? Do you have a gold watch? These kind of things can help you make your decision more easily.

Weddings • Corporate Events • Celebrations Venues view the galleries EventsByNatalieNoel l l @ l natalienoelevents@gmail.com Ph: 403-952-5373 The Right Vacation When planning an all-inclusive trips suited for you, keep these questions in mind: What is the purpose of your vacation? Are you looking to explore, or do you want to relax by a pool? For some, relaxing by the pool or on the beach for a week is paradise, but others can grow tired of it fast. Check to see if there are nearby attractions you want to check out. Can you book excursions? For those seeking adventure check out what excursions your resort offers. Often times, a relaxing vacation is just right when paired with a little local exploration. Does food make it or break it? When all of your meals are paid for, there’s not a lot of reasons to seek a local restaurant. However, that sometimes leaves you missing the local authentic flair. If you love food, try hotel packages that includes only a complimentary breakfast. This leaves you lunch and dinner to try new things. What entertainment are you looking for? Are you in a quiet resort, or in one known for its entertainment? Are you close to a town so you can go out in the evening? Contemplate this so you can enjoy every minute of your vacation. Make sure to call your local travel Agent. They can help in every aspect of booking your dream vacation! Lynnette Schile WTE Vacations 581-8075 Just Imagine...

Most companies will need to know if this is for a wedding, concert, prom, birthday party or maybe an anniversary - and they often specialize in certain events to deliver the best possible experience. The more details you can provide, the better the value and service you’ll receive. Make sure to ask for references from the company you are booking with and follow up with those references. It doesn’t hurt to do price comparison in the industry but cheaper does not necessarily mean better! Food& Beverage About Cake Break Wedding Cakes Cake Break is a cake designing business located in Medicine Hat. We specialize in the art of flavor, cake construction, sugar, sculpting, and coloring techniques. We use rolled fondant, sugar veil and have the newest products available. Your choice of wedding cake makes a statement about your personality. You can choose an elegant look to a whimsical style. Whatever you choose we will transform your vision into reality. Please call to book a consultation, remember to bring color swatches or pictures so we can design a wedding cake of your dreams for you. Novelty Cakes Hello, let me introduce myself, my name is Bernice and I create sculptured works of art out of cake, fondant and rice crispies. I have been in business for 5 years creating cakes for Medicine Hat and surrounding areas. Some of these cakes need structure because believe me cakes like to fall if they get the chance, so you really have to think about the stability of the cake without compromising flavor. I’ve created cakes for all sorts of events and made cakes to donate to different charities across the city. Creak Break was also nominated for Best New Business of the Year so that was exciting. We have also designed cakes for Canada Day drawing lines of people to see what we created for that year. You have to have a bit of an art background and be able to visualize cakes in your mind to make them a reality. I’m so happy that I have a great customer base that can see this vision. Redcliff Bakery and Coffee Shop Beautiful specialty cakes for all special occasions! Food & Beverage Tips Most hotels will be reluctant to give quotes on food prices more than half a year ahead. Therefore, be sure to include a percentage increase to your budget over your current pricing. Taxes and services charges should also be included in your budget! Do not forget! Before you sign your banquet event orders read the terms and make sure they match your contract. If they do not match mark through them and make a note to check the contract. Once you receive your guarantee you will be charged the guarantee or actual number. After this you cannot decrease the guarantee, however, you can increase it. Hotels will typically prepare for three to five percent more than your guarantee. You should also request that all the food and beverage set up be ready fifteen minutes before the serving time. Make sure that beverages served individually are charged upon consumption. 8 3rd St SE Redcliff • Ph: 403-548-6050 email: rbakery1@telus.net The larger your attendance the more flexible your order will be to control cost, and depending on the size of items, i.e. cookies or brownies, request to have them cut in half for smaller serving sizes. If you are scheduling a small meeting, many hotels will charge a service fee for groups around 25 to 30 or under. If you need to determine the actual number of attendees ask the hotel what their policy is. Some may base the fee on seats, while others on plates. Make sure to keep the hotel updates with any changes in your estimated number of attendees at least one to two months prior to the event. Always send your food and beverage order to the hotel one or two weeks prior to the event. The hotel will send you an Event Order to sign and return within two to three days prior to service. For All Your Party Needs! 126 Southrailway St. SE, Medicine Hat • Bar: 403-527-2242 Beer Store: 403-528-2122 • Fax: 403-580-4199 • beerstr@shaw.ca Tips: If you are in doubt, order a smaller amount and then increase your order when you are onsite. If your meeting or event takes place over multiple days check how much you used on the first day and increase or decrease your order accordingly. If your hotel allows this of course. If you have a limited budget place a minimum order and inform them to replenish up to a specified amount, and also to check with you before replenishing anything. Receptions: Half of attendees will stay for a cash bar after a meeting, generally. Average one and a half drinks per person for a one hour cash bar. On average eighty percent of attendees will stay for a host bar. About two and half drinks will be consumed per person at a one hour host bar. You can estimate five glasses of wine per bottle, with three glasses of wine per person at a two hour event. If it is a seated dinner you can estimate half a bottle of wine per guest. Tips for Food: Remember that food requiring plates and cutlery will be more expensive, where as “finger foods” tend to be cheaper. People will also eat less when they are not loading a plate themselves. Another way to control consumption is to have a Butler Service. When servers are passing trays of food around people will ask what each item is which slows consumption. You can control this even more by having your food set out on a schedule rather than all at once. Remember that people will eat less if the food is scheduled right after a meet. When people have time to go back to their room to relax and change they will be able to enjoy the food more and then eat more. The less people consume any salty, greasy, or spicy food, the less they will have to drink. Provide seating for only 20 to 30 percent of the guests to discourage people from sitting to eat. Tips for Bars: Bartender fees are a standard cost that are based off of a set amount of time per bartender. The fees will sometimes be waived based on a minimum amount of sales at the bar. In the first hour of a reception people will eat about seven hors d’oeuvres on average.

But busier doesn’t mean better. If they can book this many weddings a year then either they shoot back-to-back weddings, or they hire other photographers to fill shoot for them. Venue Recommendees Some venues will have portfolios for booking couples to see possible photographers to choose from. But some venues charge for it. Be careful not to go with someone who paid their way up a list. Family While having family photograph your wedding for you, there are some risks to it. If something goes wrong you can end up with bad blood between you two. Weddings also require a lot of work. Just because your family member can shoot some things, doesn’t mean they can handle everything a wedding has to offer. An Amazing Portfolio Normally this is a good reason to pick a photographer But don’t make it your only reason. Get in touch with them and see if your personalities click. If you are going to have them at your side on your big day, make sure you two can work well together.

LIGHT SHOW INCLUDED Music Planning Music is one of the most important parts of your reception and as such needs to be carefully planned out. Music creates a certain atmosphere in a wedding or gathering, and special music can make your event unique. When choosing your music keep in mind a few things, the age and preferences of your guests, budget, and restrictions the site may have. For live music there are many choices. You can have a band, an orchestra, hire a DJ, or a combination of any musician and vocalist. Keep in mind though that with whatever choice you go with that they should have previous experience performing at weddings and events. If you need to have a large variety music it would be best to hire a DJ. A DJ can play a wide variety of music and some even provide a light show. You are able to give them a list of the songs you would like played as well as the order to play them in, just make sure that there is an electrical source near where they will be performing. If you wish to save money you will get generally get a better deal to hire a band or DJ directly rather than through an entertainment agency.

Whenever you experience a major life event, it’s a good time to make sure your coverage is up-todate and still suited to your needs. Review your insurance annually or during key life changes such as these: 1. Your marital status changes: Whether you’re marrying soon and combining households, or divorcing and splitting up possessions, a change in your marital status can affect your need for life, auto and homeowners coverage. As you review your coverage, be sure to verify or change your beneficiary designations. 2. You family makeup changes: If you’re expecting or adopting a child, you’ll want to protect your growing family with adequate life insurance and disability income insurance. Losing a family member through death or divorce is another life event that may prompt a policy review. Revisit the beneficiary designations on your existing policies whenever the makeup of your family changes, too. Some things we all have in common. There's nobody like State Farm® to protect the things we all value. Get to a better State™. Get State Farm. CALL ME TODAY. 3. Your teen gets a driver’s license: When your household adds a young driver, adequate auto insurance is a must. When adding your teen to your policy or asking him or her to purchase coverage, talk to our team at Crystal Metz Insurance Agency, your State Farm agent about discounts that may be available for multiple vehicles or for a young driver’s good grades. 4. You make a major purchase: If you buy a home or vacation property, or take on a significant renovation, it’s time to review your homeowners’ policy. But don’t stop there: When you buy, inherit or acquire items of value, a baby grand piano, say or antique jewelry, check whether these possessions a fully covered by your current homeowners or personal property policies. 5. Your employment status changes: If you recently received a sizeable promotion, been downsized or entered retirement, your income will often be affected. Depending on your circumstances, our team at Crystal Metz Insurance Agency – your State Farm Agent might recommend increasing your coverage or suggesting more affordable options. If you no longer have a daily commute to an office, the terms of your auto insurance might also change.
