Wedding Bridal Checklist

So you finally got proposed to and are now happily engaged. Now the next question is - how soon should you prepare for your wedding? What should be the first few steps to take? As a bride to be, you need to know at least the most basic details with regard to your upcoming nuptials. While it’s convenient to just hire a professional wedding organizer, it will also be for your own peace of mind to also be aware of the things to be done, prepared for and accomplished before your big wedding day. Here’s a simple wedding bridal checklist that you might want to consider.


Roughly 12 to 18 months before your wedding day, you can already choose your photographer, your videographer, caterer and wedding venue. This way, you and your partner will already have a rough estimate of your budget. Also, if you don’t have engagement rings yet, why not purchase them at this time?

Now roughly 6 months before your wedding, it could help a lot if you already have a final list for your bridal party, bridesmaid dresses, florist, hair and make-up artist (make sure that you have set an appointment with him or her for a wedding hair and make-up tes.) and a wedding cake maker. Of course, it would also be ideal if by this time you already have your preferred wedding gown.

With only a few weeks before your wedding day, make sure that you have all other details ironed out. By this time, you’d need help not only from your bridesmaids, family and friends but it would be better if you get advice from a professional.

Quick and handy tips for writing a blog

So you want to start a blog, eh? Want to join this bandwagon everyone else calls blogging? Perhaps you got enticed because of the many perks that a blogger receives or perhaps you just want to share your thoughts online to a wider audience. Or perhaps you want to further enhance your portfolio by adding “blogger” to your resume. Whatever your reason is for starting to write a blog, just remember that there are also certain rules and tips that you may follow.


Here are just a few quick and handy tips for writing a blog:

1. Write less and write well. Yes, there is a difference between writing on paper and writing a blog. People usually just scan through when they “read” online journals. You may want to just limit your blog content to about 250 words. That word count is more than enough. Also, write well. Check your grammar and spelling. Nobody really wants to read a poorly written blog entry. Chances are, your readers will not come back and check your blog again.

2. Sprinkle relevant keywords. Keywords can help attract the visitors - which, of course, you need for your blog. Unless you want no one to come across your blog, of course. But if you’re one of those bloggers who wouldn’t mind earning a little online income on the side, then you need keywords.

3. Write snappy headlines. Don’t bore your readers with long and winding headlines. The shorter, the snappier, the better. Make it as concise as possible and don’t forget to use at least one or two keywords. This will definitely assure you of new or recurring blog readers.

Need Get Well Bouquets for a friend who’s sick? We have the answer

There are times when a family member, relative or friend gets sick. It’s always a sad, unfortunate thing when that happens especially since practically nobody wants to be sick in the first place. We always want the people close to us to feel all right and to always be in the best of health. Hence, whenever one of our own falls prey to sickness or disease and either needs to stay home or needs to check in at a hospital, we always want to show our care and concern. One of the ways we can reassure them of our well wishes and prayers is to send get well bouquets.

But did you know that there are get well bouquets now that do not only remind the sick patient that we care for them but also serve as great sources of energy and vitamins? Yes, you read that right. Get well bouquets that patients can also eat at the same time!

Edible Arrangements Hong Kong has this pretty fruit arrangement called Apple Daisy. It’s a colorful mix of gourmet chocolate dipped apple wedges, strawberries, cantaloupe, grape, pineapple daisies and even topped with a pineapple that’s shaped like an apple! Is that too much to take in? Check http://www.ediblearrangements.hk to see what we mean.


Meanwhile, you can also send a get well soon bouquet called the 1 Dozen Swizzle Berry Chocolate Roses white chocolate. A new product by Edible Arrangements Hong Kong, your sick friend or relative will receive 12 long stemmed gourmet white chocolate dipped strawberries - a guaranteed cheer-upper for anyone who wants to get well. You can order this great get well soon bouquet online. Just visit the official Edible Arrangements HK website.

Chocolate is good for the health


Did you know that chocolate, especially dark chocolate, is healthy and good for you? There may be reservations on your part but really, the truth is, dark chocolate has a lot of health benefits and more and more medical experts say that you should include it in your diet. Just to name a few health benefits of dark chocolate - there’s lower blood pressure, lower cholesterol, stimulation of endorphin production (or better called as happy cells!) and of course, it tastes good!

Fortunately for those who want to look for fun and creative ways to enjoy dark chocolate, a specialty store in Hong Kong has come up with two great ideas. Edible Arrangements Hong Kong, which specializes in fresh fruit arrangements or fruits fashioned to look like real life bouquets, has the 12-piece chocolate dipped apples and strawberries mixed toppings box and the appreciation bouquet.



The 12 piece chocolate dipped apples and strawberries mixed toppings box is a delightful combination of green Granny Smith apple wedges and sweet strawberries - all hand-dipped in delicious gourmet semisweet chocolate. The Edible Arrangements Hong Kong Appreciation Bouquet, on the other hand, is a beautiful fruit bouquet whereby fresh strawberries - all hand dipped in gourmet chocolate - are arranged in a keepsake mug. Both fruit bouquets can make either great gifts or regular fare for the home. The tastefully designed fruit arrangements will truly be a hit among friends and family!
