Money vows for newlyweds
BY SARAH KINGDON
(NC)—A sound financial plan is one
way to make the honeymoon last forever.
Eighty-six per cent of couples admit
they argue about money, a 2009 survey
by Torque Customer Strategy finds.
“It's important to figure out from
the beginning how you will manage
finances as a couple,” says Liz Lunney,
senior vice president, Fiduciary Trust
Company of Canada, a subsidiary of
Franklin Templeton Investments. “Sit-
ting down with a financial advisor and
figuring out a budget can help avoid
issues in the future.”
1. Set a budget
Decide how to pay the mortgage or
rent and monthly bills. Does a joint
chequing account make sense or
should one spouse pay bills and the
other put away savings? Figure out
what works best. Ensure you financially plan for large purchases and check
with your spouse before buying a highpriced item.
2. Take care of debt. Many couples
are surprised when they tally their
debt. Build a plan to manage liabilities.
Start with the highest interest items
and make paying this off a priority in
the beginning years of marriage.
3. Save for a rainy day. The future
is unpredictable so ensure you have an
emergency savings account in place.
This will provide security in the event
of unemployment, health problems or
other unforeseen expenses. Contribute
a small percentage of each paycheque
to a separate savings account.
A spectacular view.
Restore your soul…

ceremony, reception, honeymoon and anniversary.

Let TravelOur Way book your paradise wedding
Free Gift available for
couples who book
destination weddings
with Travel Our Way
*Some restrictions apply
“Thank you Michelle and Travel Our Way for being such an important part of our wedding planning, we truly appreciate it!”
Air Canada Vacations and Sandals Resorts have teamed up to make sure your
wedding is the most romantic day of your life.
Sandals Resorts is the romantic escape to the world’s only Luxury Included®
Vacation, renowned for a gracious staff and world-class accommodations on the best
beaches in paradise, at Sandals, love is all you need.
Carla MacKay of Travel Our Way in New Glasgow says couples looking for 100
per cent hassle-free, pure romance for their wedding day should take advantage of
Sandals Resorts wedding packages.
The bride and groom can choose from one of six exciting new Sandals®
Weddings by Martha Stewart™ themes, including the FREE wedding, called
"Beautiful Beginnings" or select the simple elegance of the five gorgeous wedding themes (at an additional charge) available at all Sandals Resorts in
Jamaica, Antigua, St. Lucia and the Bahamas.
Every themed wedding by Martha Stewart include a personal wedding consultant, picturesque wedding location, marriage officiant, bouquet and boutonniere, twotiered wedding cake, reception for bride, groom and two guests, one 5x7 wedding
photograph, honeymoon dinner for bridge and groom, continental breakfast in bed,
preparation of documentation and certified copy of marriage license.
Once couples have chosen the perfect wedding collection to suit their style, they
can add custom touches that will make their wedding even more unforgettable,
including music and entertainment; photography and videography; reception dining
options; additional florals and decor, bridal dresses, keepsakes and favours; Red
Lane® Spa Services and wedding accessories.
“Sandals Resorts has a great reputation for playing attention to detail,” said
MacKay. “Their weddings are hassle-free and all the couples need to bring is love.”
MacKay said many couples take this opportunity to turn their weddings into a
family reunion.
Air Canada Vacations has specialized travel agents, such as Travel Our Way, to
help your group of 10 or more receive great rates, organize all your flights, resort and
other useful things.
In an effort to make your trip to paradise perfect, Air Canada Vacations is offering convenient flight times to Sandals Resorts in addition to direct flights to Jamaica,
more leg room and luggage allowances.
Travel Our Way also has a bridal registry available so couples have monetary
gifts put towards the cost of their wedding or honeymoon.
“Couples are welcome to stop in to our East River Road location and pick up a
destination wedding package,” MacKay said. “It is full of helpful information about
planning destination weddings, requirements for getting married and travelling tips.”
As an extra incentive, Travel Our Way is offering for every couple who books their
destination wedding with them, along with 10 or more confirmed guests, will receive
a gift certificate for Leslies Finery, discount card for Tip Top Tailors and 10 tanning
sessions from Tartan Blade.
MacKay said it is never too early to start planning a destination wedding.
“Come in and we’ll talk about your wedding
plans,” MacKay said. “We can even set
group rates now for 2011.”
“We decided to go to Cuba for a destination wedding, and really wanted to
book with a local agency that we trusted and felt comfortable with. We also
wanted to make sure that this trip was unforgettable for our guests, and
really wanted to make the booking process easy and convenient. After doing a
bit of our own research, we called Travel Our Way to inquire about some rates and
hotels that we were interested in. After speaking with Michelle, we knew that she
would work very hard to make sure that every detail was taken care of, and
that she would do everything in her power to make sure our wedding trip was
amazing! Travel Our Way was able to give us the best rates, offer us incentives and
get our entire wedding group on the same flight! Michelle worked many late nights to make sure all of our guest’s details were
taken care of. I never had to worry about anything because of Michelle and the rest of the staff at Travel Our Way. They have really

Pictou County has its cake boss.
Helen Buchan, owner of Mrs. MacGregor’s
Tea Room in downtown Pictou, has a hard
time saying no when someone asks her to
design a specialty cake for a wedding, birthday, anniversary or any other occasion.
‘I say, ‘sure’ and then I start to think about
how I am actually going to do this,” she said
with a laugh.
Buchan has been been making designer
cakes since 2008 and with the help of her chef
Lisa Clarke, this side-business has grown into
a successful endeavor.
“It’s been a joint effort, “ Buchan said. “We
love it. We never say no. People tell us what
they like, sometimes we use pictures, and then
we try to incorporate it all into a beautiful
cake.”
Some of her favourite designs include making a Gucci purse, a Victorian lace wedding
cake and a beach scene cake complete with
chocolate sea shells.
She said customers interested in having a
cake designed, especially for weddings, should
call Mrs. MacGregor’s Tea Room for an
appointment to meet with Helen.
“We like to sit down and chat about what
they like, go over the price list and come up
with some good ideas.”
