by SHERYLL CROSS
Every milestone in our life needs to be memorable because after all, you only live once. That is why I will help you celebrate in style!
Planning an anniversary getaway? The ride. Start by getting an airport limo service. This will give you the liberty of bringing the romance all the way to the airport. Make a special arrangement for the executive limousine service and lavish it with caviar, champagne and soothing music. Not only will this get you into the mood for an intimate vacation, it will also remind you and your partner how good it feels to be in-love. The Destination. Be sure to make hotel arrangements a week before the trip, this will give you the liberty to choose the best packages and pick a room that will capture the ambiance you are aiming for. Ask for rose petals to be scattered all over the bed and scented candles to be placed at different corners. Drapes and linens can also be changed upon request so ask for warm colors to infuse the air of love.
According to Dr. Sheryl Tate, a romance guru, love sometimes weaken because the connection that couples have for each other is severed by factors such as work and children. ��A couple once went to me saying they feel an utter disconnect from each other, it��s like they are not the same people that they were when they feel in love. Their situation is extremely hard given that they are working in New York, an extremely busy city. What I did was I made arrangements for them. I called a New York City limousine service and told them to make sure that an air of romance is evident the very minute the pair enters the limo. They cruised around for an hour, checked into a fancy hotel afterwards and rediscovered each other. Sometimes the solution is so simple, just pump up the romance and you��ll be good to go.��
Prom Season. This is hectic. Dresses have to be picked, escorts have to be chosen. And the ride, ah, all will not be good in the world if a prom limousine service isn��t called. It has to be the best of everything for the person who will experience this very special occasion and careful planning is essential to keep chaos at bay. The dress. Pick something that will suit your body type as well as your personality. Remember that it will look better if it fits right instead of just choosing an outfit because it��s what Lindsay Lohan is wearing. Get a designer that will work with you and make sure that the gown will be one of a kind. Also make sure that the shoes and bag will match the dress because making a wrong move will break the whole look. A hair and make-up artist should also be booked at least a week before the occasion, test different looks two days before the event to give you enough time to choose. Jewelry is also part of the overall effect. Contact a jewelry shop that will let you borrow a complete set of nicely cut diamonds; this will make you sparkle all night long. The car. Limousines are the best bet when it comes to proms. It is flashy but safe at the same time. You and your Friends can go by group with the chauffeur expertly driving you to and from your destination.
Wedding. Alas, the occasion of all occasions. A day wherein the bride looks divine in her flowing gown and the groom flashes a nervous smile, awaiting his lovely fianc��e to walk down the aisle. This is the biggest of them all, and the hardest to plan so enough time should be allotted for this. The Invitations. A lavish wedding starts with the invitations. Be creative. Go for unique and one of a kind invitations that will capture the awe of your guest. Opt for something that will show both of your personalities. The location. Make sure that it will be suitable for the amount of people you are planning to invite and the design you want to have. The bridal gown. Picking a gown should be done at least two months before the wedding and frequent fitting is essential to make sure that the gown will fit on that special day. The food. A powerful menu is essential to pull off a great reception. Start by making sure that you arranged to have the complete set: hors d��oeuvres, an appetizer, the main course, wedding cake and coffee. Then set a tasting with your caterer, even if you are familiar with the place. Catered meals are often prepared in an alternate kitchen, and you should attempt to duplicate the conditions of your reception as much as you can. The music. Great entertainment goes hand in hand with good food, so to make sure that your guest have a blast contact a booking agent and check if you can get a great band or even a celebrity to sing at your wedding. At least eight months is needed to secure a great band so put this on top of your priority list. The Honeymoon. Splurging is the name of the game if you want to experience the best and most exotic honeymoon destinations in the whole world so contact an agent who will help you get discounts and arrangements. Ask for an airport limo service that will pick you up at the airport, indicate that food and beverages should be available inside the limo. Make sure that you and your travel agent has a clear understanding, inform him that you want meals and spa treatments to be part of the package to maximize your stay.
