Five Simple Gestures To Keep The Romance Alive Long After The Wedding

After the wedding and those first few months (or even years) of bliss, they say couples enter into a new stage where the “honeymoon phase” is over. It’s when reality settles in and you may find you and your partner caught up in the many things you have to do day in and day out. You become very comfortable with each other–which is not a bad thing at all–but you also have the tendency to lose the magic that came with the excitement of getting married. So, the question is, how to you keep the spark alive in married life? Of course, big gestures, like a surprise party, or a surprise trip to get away will bring you back to the younger, carefree, and exciting time of your relationship. But you can also make your everyday just as romantic with simple gestures. Wondering how? Read on and we will tell you.

Compliments are uplifting, we know that all too well. And just because you’re married, it doesn’t mean you should stop complimenting each other! In fact, all the more you should compliment your spouse. Say he looks good before he leaves for work, or tell him you’re grateful for his hard work when he comes home after a long day. You develop an appreciative atmosphere and you will both feel really good, happy, and loved.

 

(2) Setting frequent date nights.

6 Expensive Wedding Mistakes Couples Commonly Make

It’s hard enough to plan a wedding and stick to a budget. And while there are many ways to cut down on costs, sometimes it also boils down to crucial decisions couples make. Unknowingly, one minor detail gone wrong can snowball into huge costly consequences. So, we decided to ask the experts about some of the most common wedding mistakes that end up costing couples a lot of money. Take note of these six expensive wedding mistakes to avoid extra expenses you know you can’t afford.

 

(1) Buying THE DRESS way too early on.

We get it. It is your chance to be a princess for one special day. The dresses are just too pretty to be sitting on the rack, so you could not wait to own one at the start of your wedding planning journey and you purchased a dress hurriedly. Ladies, gown hunting is an acquired taste, stress expert planners at Timeless Event Design. The more dresses you look at, be it in person or online, the better you will know what you like and what actually will best suit you. After that hurried purchase, you might start to regret and plan to get another dress that you truly love, blowing your wedding budget. So stay calm and prudent when you go gown shopping. Let that feeling of trying on the gown sink in a bit first and do more research before deciding.

 

(2) Not taking the small things into account of the whole budget.

When it comes to budgeting for a wedding, things that come to mind are usually the big ones–banquet, décor, entertainment, dresses, etc. Many couples forget (or choose to forget–out of sight, out of mind right?) to take into account the small things that could easily add up to a big plummet in your savings’ account, especially if you haven’t set aside a proper budget for them. These things could be accessories such as shoes, personalized items from Etsy, printing of photo albums, or even technical support, such as lighting and transportation. Timeless Event Design advises couples to make sure to set a reasonable amount aside for miscellaneous items or contingency plans so you won’t be caught up in unexpected expenses.
