7 Tips For Brides To Prepare Perfectly For Your Initial Wedding Dress Consultation

Few events in our lives bring as much excitement and anticipation as our wedding day, and this is especially the case for brides as they make plans for their big day such as choosing their bridal gown, deciding on who their bridesmaids are going to be, and discussing with their future spouse where they are going on honeymoon, for example.

It is the first of those three examples, choosing a bridal gown or wedding dress, which will doubtless occupy the most time and thoughts of many brides-to-be. Given this is a dress that will likely only be worn for one day, albeit one of the most important days of their life, this is what causes brides to rightly want to ensure that they make the correct choice.

Part of the process of choosing a wedding dress will be the first wedding dress consultation appointment with the company chosen to make and supply the wedding dress. For many brides reading this, that appointment is more nerve-racking than any job interview and many of you may genuinely panic about it.

Anxiety need not reach those levels, and whilst some nervous excitement is to be expected, there are ways to ensure that you remain calm enough to listen during the consultation and more importantly, make decisions about your wedding dress with a clear and calm mind.

Jewellery Gift Ideas for Him

gift-ideas-for-him

Men can be notoriously hard to buy presents for. Unlike many women who love perfume, flowers, chocolate, and anything from jewellers, men tend to be tight-lipped about what it is they like or don’t like.

When the time comes to purchase a Christmas gift or something for a birthday, anniversary, or Valentine’s Day, you can’t go wrong with jewellery. However, the variety on offer can make it that little bit more challenging.

Thanks to Jewellers Perth, here are a few of the many jewellery gift options for men below. By sticking with these, you are bound to put a smile on their face.

Watch

In many men’s line of work, it’s not safe or allowed to carry your phone around in your pocket and pull it out so you can tell the time. This is especially true if you work in an industry where you have to get your hands dirty. Therefore, the best gift from jewellers that you can get that special man in your life is a watch – the more rugged, the better.

Rather than damaging their phone if they have to use it to check the time, they can peer at their watch and see it in an instant. What’s more, watches are now becoming smarter. As a result, they can do so much more for the user than only tell the time.

Cuff links

For the extraordinary man in your life who works in an office or goes to a lot of formal events, a pair of cuff links is going to be much appreciated. The benefit of such a gift is that the variety is so vast so you will always be able to find something to appeal to their tastes. For example, if they like motorbikes, you are bound to find little cuff links at jewellers with bikes on them. What’s more, if your significant other wears cuff links a lot, you can buy them a new set for every special occasion.

Bridesmaids Gifts

Benefits of Personalised Robes

When you’re looking for bridesmaids gifts before your wedding day arrives, you will no doubt be pulling your hair out. After all, what could you possibly buy them that would ever be enough to repay them for their time and support? However, there is one option that more and more brides-to-be are discovering as the best gift for bridesmaids. Here are a few of the many benefits associated with choosing a personalised robe for your bridal party.

Unique

Rather than buy bridesmaids gifts that are generic – such as soaps, gift hampers, and vouchers, you can opt for something that no one else will have. Personalised robes are a unique gift into which you’ve put a lot of time. What’s more, it’s a reminder for years to come for your best friends that they were an integral part of your big day.

Affordable

In fact, according to the Bride to Be Magazine, the average Australian wedding now costs around $65,000 – a significant increase on even just a few years ago. With this in mind, it’s always in your best interests to hunt for bridesmaids gifts that won’t break the bank, but will be enjoyed all the same. Personalised robes fit that bill perfectly. Even though your bridal party will adore them, they are a far cheaper alternative to other bridesmaids gifts on the market.

Child Care

How to Choose Child Care

When the time comes to begin looking at child care options for your children, it’s crucial to do your research. What may have worked for the children of your friends and family may not be as convenient or suitable for you and yours. There are many things you must consider – a few of which we’ve included below.

Location

Location, believe it or not, can play a part in choosing the best child care option for you and your family. If you select a facility that’s not within proximity to your home or place of business, you may find you’re spending even longer commuting than is realistically convenient. For example, if your child is in care until 5.30 pm, but you work until 5 pm, you need to ensure a commute of 30 minutes or less is possible. Otherwise, it may cause problems for your work schedule and the facility caring for your child.

Feedback

When you’re looking at various child care options, keep our ears open. Close to half of families included in an Australian Bureau of Statistics survey utilised some form of child care. Therefore, you’re bound to know several people who take their children to facilities and have feedback about them. Ask questions, find out about the environment and the teachers, and narrow down the potential options from what people have to say.

Your Children’s Needs

Not every child thrives in a busy environment with other children – whereas others do. You know your children better than anyone, so consider what’s in their best interests. Child care is available in varying forms, so you may find home-based is far more beneficial, or a facility with structure could be as well.
