Swedish Wedding Traditions

admin — Fri, 21 May 2010 19:00:59 +0000

In another life, I worked at a translation/localization company with some amazing people who were scattered around the planet. One of my favorites was in Sweden — where wedding traditions are nothing like those in the United States! After picking her brain for the details, I decided it would make for an interesting topic; a lot of the Swedish traditions should be incorporated elsewhere! (Also, I wrote one post on US & British traditions , if you’re interested!) After the Engagement There is an old tradition that after the engagement, the priests in the couples’ respective churches announce the wedding to come.

Do Bridal Showers Or Bachelorette Parties Exist In Germany? Any German Wedding Traditions For The Moh?

admin — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 16:41:56 +0000

The custom of bridal showers is unknown in Germany. There is the tradition of the “Polterabend” (”Poltern” = a loud noise, “abend” = evening), a wedding-eve party with lots of dancing and drinking and most importantly the noisy smashing of china by the guests, which, according to a pagan tradition, is supposed to keep evil spirits away from the bridal couple (who have to clean the whole mess up afterwards!). Only the breaking of vessels made from clay or porcelain is allowed as the breaking of g

Do Black And Hispanic Women Sleep With The Strippers At Bachelorette Parties?

admin — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 11:07:41 +0000

My girlfriend is black and planning on going to a party where there is going to be male strippers. I didn’t like the idea so much at first but went along with it because I was told that all the guys do at these parties is dance. Now someone is telling me that it is different at black or hispanic bachelorette parties …that black and hispanic women are raunchier and some of them will actually sleep with the strippers at the party.

Wedding Planning – Handling People You Left Off the Wedding Guest List

admin — Sun, 23 Aug 2009 07:55:01 +0000

There will surely be people you would like to invite to your wedding whom you cannot and people who want to be invited, or who expected to be invited, whom you didn’t invite because you didn’t want to. Yesterday I was getting my nails done when a fellow patron, obviously a Mother-of-the-Bride, went into extreme detail on her cell phone ( I won’t go into the inappropriateness of a loud, personal call in a public place) about her daughter’s wedding. At the end of her description, I overheard h

Do You Think The Purpose Of Bachelor/bachelorette Parties Are Stupid And Immature?

admin — Fri, 21 Aug 2009 22:38:29 +0000

Ok so I was thinking about this for a while…..Im assuming the “purpose” of Bachelor/Bachelorette party is to “party it up” your so called “last day” of being unmarried….right?? Im not really socially conservative or anything (more or less right in the middle), however in my personal opinion…..I feel these kind of parties are somewhat depressing and send a improper messege…..let me explain…. If you are going to get married you should be EXCITED!! You should be looking forward to spending your

It’s My Birthday, so I’ll Blog if I Want to…

Adrienne Irmer, NBC Chicago Street Team Actually, my birthday was last weekend, August 15th, but I was waiting on some pictures from the event photographer to include. As you can well tell, it was quite an affair, but believe me the planning involved would not have been so easy if it weren’t for the venue’s staff and event promoters that evening. If you have ever tried to plan a birthday, bachelorette or new promotion party at a night club, it’s not as easy as one thinks

Bachelorette Extravaganza Warning

admin — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 19:11:37 +0000

Backstory: I’m heading to Coronado, CA for my bachelorette party. Promise me you girls won’t cross the border to Tijuana, Mexico as part of your “Bachelorette Extravaganza”! Don’t even think about trying to sneak across, cause if you go and you end up dead, I’ll know you went and then Ann Currie will be interviewing me on the “Today Show” and there will be a “Dateline Special” about the bride-to-be who didn’t do this one last thing that her mother asked of her and, consequently, she and her

Are All Bachelorette Parties Raunchy?

admin — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 16:37:20 +0000

I get the fact that a lot bachelor parties involve drinking and strippers and I am in no way in support of that, but I just watched this bachelorette party video and there were all these women in like a nightclub type thing with nude male strippers and all these types of women were just going crazy, from the ones that looked more promiscuous to some plane janes, and they weren’t just rubbing up on each other, there were a lot of bj’s involved including the bride to be, and some chicks even getti

New passport photo, or “How to go about actually crossing stuff off your list”

admin — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 08:06:22 +0000

I’m accommodationally bifurcated these days, dividing my time between My Country House (aka The BF’s spacious and bucolic Actual House with Lawn, Patio & Dog) and my bachelorette pad (aka Rent Control Central, “Colleen’s Stubborn Handhold on Freedom,” or, during certain parts of summer, “The E-Z-Bake Oven”), so I can’t tell you how long ago my previous passport expired. So let me just repeat: my previous passport expired
