How much to give for niece wedding?
If you are talking about money (and you can afford it) and depending how close you are to the niece then give $100 - $200 or more if you wish in your wedding card to her. If you want to skip the money (because you can't afford much) then go shopping because there are great deals out there and you could find something you know she would like. "Pier 1" US firm (in Canada and one of my favorite shops) has beautiful inexpensive wine glasses, bamboo type place mats (the rage in British Columbia) in rich chocolate browns with a hint of bronze, or some are black with a haze of silver, some napkins to go with it and napkin rings. This way it looks like a great gift and no one knows what you have spent. Personally, a person should appreciate anything one gives whether it be a small inexpensive gift or a moderate gift. There is nothing to say that you must give money. You are being invited to share in their nuptuals as man and wife and can give them a gift,too. Weddings these days like many traditions in this country have gotten so materialistic its disgusting. You can buy them a 100. savings bond that will have a 200 dollar face value and even more if they let it mature. You can buy them AAA memberships for their vehicles so they are also assured peace of mind on the road, you can buy them something for their home. If you really want to give money, you do it first according to what you can afford. If you can afford it and are going alone, $100.00 is appropriate. If there are two of you then $150.-200.00 is fine. IF they dont appreciate it then let them know that you didnt have to give anything, you were there to celebrate the joining of their lives, not to make their bank account larger......

How long should you be engaged before being married?
it depends on the factors of how u truly feel in ur heart and if he/she feels the same way ANSWER I have been married for 49 years and i can tell you that you have this feeling that you want to spend and give your life to this women or man is or can be brought at anytime and that is true love. Friendly : It only takes a year to know someone before getting engaged. It's enough to really know who and what kind of person you are engaging with. You are now able to accept the good and bad habits. Think wisely. If he puts on a pair of chains and likes it. Then he is probably broken enough I say at least 3 or 4 years. It may sound crazy but you have to remember this is the person you are going to be with for the rest of your life! I LOVE SCOTT FOREVER AND EVER NO MATTER WOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!kel
: I knew my husband for three months before getting married, not engaged, we were engaged a week prior to getting married. While I do not necessarily recommend this for everyone, for us it worked and we have been together for a long time now.
to this question there is definitely no certain answer if you are in love & they love you back just as much then, it doesn't matter how long you've been together even when your married you find out more and more about your husband or wife.
---Addition --- It is more important to know each other well, , rather than how long you have known each other. The most important factor is that you are both at a point in your life that you can make a lifelong commitment - you have the education and a job where you can support yourself, and that you both have reached a level of emotional maturity.
Plain and Simple, at least a year so you can find out all their bad habits. then you can decide if you can put up with them
:
Till you get to know what you need to know to decide to continue or step back.
Even if it was only a couple of hours.
Question: So i have been with my man for 2 years now, we've lived together for a year and a half. I know him pretty good, I want to get married but I'm afraid to tell him. I've had issues with getting him to say he loves me....I'm always asking if he does or not. its the only way he'll say it. He can't even compliment me without choking on the words. We've talked about marriage but he has never said it could be me he wants it's always, "if i were to marry a girl" or "when i get married". Am I wasting my time? He's 29 now and has no plans for his future. I told him that he's 29 now and its time to settle down, he said " i am settled, i have a new truck, new house, and a good job" he never mentioned me until i said something. What should i do? Is it too early to be thinking about marriage?
My dear lady,
yes leave him, some men just like to seek women's love but don't like to engage with a woman who already shows interest in him, this is the human nature, doesn't appreciate what's in hand.
it is your right to talk about marriage. Marriage is the only guarantee that you get your full rights, and your future children rights. from now, leave him and find another place, let him taste the life without you, cut any chance of contact with him, then if he called you, asking to return back, don't hesitate to ask for your rights, with strong manner and steady voice, and if the answer is no, erase him from your life, he doesn't deserve another minute, and if it was yes, let it be a practised yes, means that he should start immediately with the preparations for marriage.
My dear lady,
Never let your nature suppress your reasonable thinking, protect yourself and your life, your present and your future, do never let a man even touch your hand unless he marries you, coz when he finds it hard to gain your approval, he will then become concerned with you even stronger, and will later appreciate your self confidence and respect.
May you live in happiness. Amen
:
My boyfriend and I have been together for 5 years now and i was freaking out wondering why he hasn't proposed yet and second guessing if he really loved me. But then I realized that it was for a good reason. Now the divorce rate has increased greatly and marriage rate obviously decreased. One of the reasons for this is because many people are rushing into marriage for all of the wrong reasons and with the wrong person. Marriage is taken advantage of these days unlike the old days. It is better to wait and make sure the person you are with is really going to be the one you want to spend the rest of your life with.
you should wait 2 to 3 years before you marry somebody as my view from a marriage countsler
Can you wear palazzo pants to a formal wedding?
Absolutely! I am planning to wear mine to a wedding in May but right now looking for a black top ... preferably a Trapeze style top to balance my hips with my broad shoulders. I am petite too (5'2") but size 12/14 so you see my dilemma? Trying to cover the muffins etc ... lol
I am planning to wear my pants with high wedge sandals. The pants are really wide with tiny permanent pleats and have an all over tiny print. A plain black top with a V neck or cowl is what I am looking for.
Go for it ...

What do bride and groom pay for?
This question has gotten so out of hand, its hard to say in todays society. If you want the traditional payouts, go to your local library and get a book on weddings, in there it will give you the traditional expectations and some updated ones. I got married in 1989 and back then the only thing my husband payed for was the wedding rings, his tux. The girls PARENTS pay for the church, limo's, reception, etc. The grooms parents can kick in too but usually only if asked. The people in the wedding party pay for their own outfits and hopefully, the bride is respectful of everyone's financial means, so as not to pick outrageously priced attire. The bride and the groom usually split the honeymoon expenses. The groomsmen split paying for the bachelor party and the bridesmaids with help of both mothers pay for the shower. Get the book, its an easier guide for nowadays.
