One sign that we’ve entered the internet era is when we rely on the internet to help us put together a special event in our life, which we traditionally do offline — our wedding.

Memento for the Fashionista Bride

Some couples practice exchanging gifts to celebrate their own marriage. Each will either determine the value of their respective gifts through its price tag or through its sentiments. Though the former has its own allure but there’s romance to be found in the latter. Personally, receiving a gift which holds sentimental value will be cherished a whole lot more.
Take for example this extremely fabulous Bride Mannequin — spotted over at my friend Sasha’s fashion and beauty blog, Style Manila — from Franz Porcelain. It can be a groom’s gift to his stylish bride.
Isn’t it a beauty? I can imagine receiving …read more

Wedding Gift Ideas on a Budget

Attending weddings can be expensive. You not only have to spend on a wedding gift but also a new dress to wear (especially if you’re attending a wedding with your usual group of friends who’ve attended other weddings with you) and if the wedding is really high-profile then you would feel compelled to get your hair and make up then.
For me, there are advantages and disavantages of being away from girlfriends who I grew up with. An advantage is because I live overseas, I don’t get invited to their weddings and don’t feel compelled to send any gift. The sad …read more

During these hard economic times, we have to be practical on gifting as it is more of a luxury rather than a need. It doesn’t mean that just because there is a recession that people will stop getting married and you can’t say no to all wedding invitations just to save on additional costs you can afford. You can’t say to people close to you so why don’t you pool your resources with your friends who are also invited to the same wedding so you can still buy something of value for the couple.
Can’t think of what to give?
