Red: love. They can also carry connotations of respect, and a promise of courage for trials to be faced in the future.
Pink: admiration and love in its earliest stages. A very pale pink, particularly in a carnation, can mean sympathy, whereas the darker shades tend to imply gracefulness and the admission that one has 'fallen in love.'
Yellow: joy. They can also mean a generally happy, excitable person who is well-loved, although some books record this rose as a rose of unsteady affections.
White: innocence. They are also associated with humility, awe of the lover, a respect for the purity of the lover and is also a rose of secrecy and silently recognised affection (they could therefore be used as anonymous deliveries to an office or workplace).
Orange: enthusiasm and lust for life. An energetic or eccentric lover would probably appreciate the vibrant colours, as this is the sort of personality denoted by the shade.
Dark red or burgundy: passion and recognition of intensity and beauty.
Personal Attachments Some flowers that should not be given to a lover unless there is a personal attachment to the species:
Begonia: 'Be careful of my affections' Purple Carnation: Capriciousness Striped Carnation: a refusal of a lover's attentions Yellow Carnation: rejection Cyclamen: goodbye forever Geranium: 'I am making a mistake' Hydrangea: heartlessness Larkspur (pink): fickleness Lotus: an estranged lover Marigold: Jealousy, grief Snapdragon: an admission of deceit
Size and Number of Roses
Rosebuds are generally given to younger, or more innocent lovers. They can also be used as the first confession of love, although white rosebuds indicate an affection that the suitor cannot declare openly because the lover is too young or innocent. A single rose indicates the simple message 'I love you.' A bunch of roses represents gratitude or great admiration for the recipient. Two roses with their stems twisted together suggest engagement; this symbol was sometimes used as a subtle hint before a proposal of marriage. A thornless rose indicates love at first sight.
Once you get your big day confirmed, you need to settle the budget and all the details, no wonder you will need to stand lots of pressure till the end of your wedding day. What is all this pressure for? It is somehow as harsh as you are taking a second job. Some brides would ask with the following answer - "the wedding day is the most important day in my life. If I do something, my marriage would be ruined".
No one would try to argue with you how important the wedding day is. However, it is also important to realize you are not planning for just a wedding day. You are planning for the first day of your marriage. The relationship and lives in marriage is more important.
It is nonsense to put you in debt just because you wish to make your dream wedding come true. There are many ways you can make your wedding remarkable.
A good planning would help you to achieve your goal under budget. Even though you have a very tight budget, you can still make your wedding special. The key is to use your imagination and make the stuff with your sincere. Your guests would be impressed by your sweet thoughts and your devotion on preparing the wedding day!
The first thing is to come up with a guest list. With the guest list completed, you would mostly have an idea about the quantity of all the stuff such as wedding invitation, cake and food in the wedding reception etc. you need to prepare on the wedding day.
Both of you should make schedules to take pre-marriage courses together. Those courses would help you to know each other better. Lots of couples find this kind of courses very helpful for a happy marriage. Remember the reason you are so busy with the preparation work for your perfect wedding day is a memorable first day of marriage.
Through the discussion among your family members and between you two, you can reach a consensus among all the family members. Asking for help is essential too. You would ask your friends and relatives and they can share all their invaluable experiences with you. It can help you to save a lot of money, as well as plenty of time.
Once again, you should bear in mind that the wedding day is just the first day of your marriage. There is no point to lose your temper and offend your partner because of the details such as the way to decorate the wedding venue and the style of wedding invitation.
I have attended a wedding before, my friends had a really tight budget but they created a very memorable wedding ceremony for the guests. For example, they bought the frosted cake from supermarket and decorated them with fresh flower themselves. Although it cannot be compared with professional baker, all the guests are impressed by their creativities.
A wedding day is the first day of your marriage. There is no point to feel disappointed just because of some minor mistakes. With a mind appreciation, you would find the wedding more enjoyable and a blessing for the life time long marriage.
