Louis Vuitton Epi Leather line is one of my favorite. The textured leather is easy to clean, sturdy, and sports no logos. A stunning and affordable number is the Louis Vuitton Epi Leather Montaigne Clutch which sports shiny palladium hardware and is trimmed in smooth leather.

There is a flap top with a palladium push-lock closure. Measurements are 10.43x 3.93x 2.43. Totally love the shape, simplicity, and elegance of this clutch.

Septic Systems And Rural Living-Dscount Handbags

Here s another question likely to arise once you ve found your perfect rural property: your seller tells you there s no sewer hookup and that you ll have to install your own septic system. She assures you not to worry, a conventional septic system will work just fine; the soil perc s like a champ!


What s she talking about The closest you ve come to a sewer system is a manhole cover. Don t panic, that parcel is still your dream property. Read on to find out what you need to know about septic systems to make a sound decision.

Background

Septic systems are the principal means of wastewater disposal for most homeowners in rural areas. About 25 percent of homes in the United States use septic systems, with safe and reliable disposal of more than 4 billion gallons of wastewater per day. This is very old technology which when properly installed and maintained will work efficiently for generations.

A septic system is a self-contained, underground wastewater treatment system that treats and disposes of household wastewater onsite. In rural areas, where lots are larger and houses are spaced widely apart, they are more efficient and less expensive than centralized systems which require greater density to justify their large costs. Septic systems are generally classified as conventional (the majority) or alternative.

Conventional Systems

A septic system consists of two main parts a septic tank and a drainfield. The septic tank is a watertight box, usually made of concrete or fiberglass, with an inlet and outlet pipe. Wastewater flows from the home to the septic tank through a sewer pipe. In the septic tank the wastewater naturally separates into solids and liquids. The wastewater forms three layers inside the tank. Solids lighter than water (such as greases and oils) float to the top; solids heavier than water settle at the bottom. Partially clarified wastewater is left in the middle.

Naturally occurring bacteria break down the solids. The waste that cannot be broken down settles in the bottom of the tank and is periodically pumped out. The clarified liquid flows from the tank to the drainfield where it s uniformly distributed for final purification.

A standard drainfield (also known as a leach field or disposal field) is a series of trenches or a bed lined with gravel or course sand, buried a few feet below the ground s surface. Perforated pipes run through the trenches distributing the effluent, which slowly trickles from the pipes out into the gravel and down through the soil. The gravel and soil are remarkably effective natural biological filters that purify the effluent within just a foot or two of travel.

Alternative Systems

Any onsite household wastewater treatment system other than a conventional tank and drain field described above is considered an alternative system. Alternative systems are typically used where the soils are rocky or hard clay and do not percolate or perc , which refers to the capacity of the soil to permit water to flow through it and get purified. Alternate systems are also used where the terrain is steep or limited space won t permit a conventional tank and drainfield.

There are many types of alternative systems in use, reflecting the wide variety of site conditions. The Arizona Department of Environmental Quality has approved 20 different alternative system technologies. These systems typically rely on the action of the septic tank to partially treat the waste water and provide an alternate method for dispersing the effluent. Since the effluent can t filter through the existing native soil, these systems may rely on raised beds or mounds of engineered material above the natural soil to partially or fully treat septic effluent. Also widely used are evaporation-transpiration systems, which rely on the upward movement of moisture through imported engineered material, surface vegetation, and finally into the air. There are even hi-tech microwave systems for extreme locations (solid rock and steep slopes) where a septic tank is just not feasible.

Because these systems are electrically and mechanically more complicated than the relatively simple conventional systems, they are typically more expensive.

Conventional or Alternate System

Unless money s no issue, you ll want to know the answer to this question before you irrevocably commit to buy your property. Why, because an alternate system can cost as much as $10,000 to $20,000 more than a conventional system to serve the same demand. This doesn t have to be a deal breaker, especially if you in an area where only alternate systems work. If so your costs will be similar to other s residences, and that s simply the price of entry to the location you ve chosen, which is often the case in mountainous or wet regions. Nonetheless you should know this beforehand so you can budget accordingly.

Perc Tests

A percolation (perc) test determines the ability of soil to absorb liquid and therefore the kind of septic system the property will require. A perc test, typically conducted by technicians certified by the local health department, consists of digging a series of holes in the vicinity of the future drainfield, soaking the holes with water, and then measuring the time it takes for the water surface to drop one inch. The results of the test are expressed in minutes per inch (mpi); better (faster) draining soils result in lower mpi values and consequently smaller drain fields. A very high mpi value may indicate the need to install an alternative system.

Ask your seller if a perc test has been performed and if the results satisfy the standards for a conventional system. If so, you may want to confirm this information with the county health authorities who deal with septic systems. They re likely to be familiar with the area and can confirm if other residences in the area rely on conventional or alternate systems. However, don t be surprised if the seller/developer has not done a lot specific perc test. The seller may think the appropriate system is self evident; especially in an area where all the residences are served by conventional or alternate systems. In such a case the seller has no motivation to pay for a perc test. If the property is in an approved subdivision, some counties and municipalities require the developer to conduct a certain number of perc tests and site investigations throughout the subdivision, prior to offering lots for sale.

To adequately budget for this expense, you may want to speak to licensed contractors who have installed septic systems in the area. The state Registrar of Contractors or county officials can provide the names of local licensed septic system contractors. An experienced contractor will typically have informed opinions about the location and appropriate type of system, and will generally share those with prospective clients. Ask about the estimated cost to install a septic system to serve your anticipated needs.

Combine what you ve learned from your research with the judgment of well regarded local contractors and you ve got a handle on the type and cost of a septic system for your rural get away.

Conclusion

Septic systems are widely used in rural areas throughout the world. Except for exotic applications, septic systems rely on simple, natural processes and work reliably, efficiently, and without any meaningful operating cost to the homeowner. Virtually every location has a septic system solution, and most are simple and easily determined.

Now you know enough to confidently resolve your septic system anxieties and get back to deciding about buying that rural property.

Nikos Economopoulos Talks as Never Before - Interview By Giannis Galanopoulos-Dscount Handbags

Popular journalist and broadcaster of the radio show Pote Opos Prin (As Never Before) Giannis Galanopoulos had a coversation with the most promising and talanted Greek singer of laika style Nikos Economopoulos (Nikos Oikonomopoulos). Interview was on air straight after the Greek Independence Day (on the 26th of March, 2010)


G: On Thursday we celebrated the anniversary of the March 25, 1821 (Hellenic Independence Day). When you were a child, did you go to the parade

N: Of course I did. And I can tell about it. Whenever I went to the parade, the night before I was trying to prepare everything, the clothes were of a big importance for me, I was finding my good white shirt, my good shorts, cleaning my shoes, did washing, because I wanted the girls to see me and say: "How handsome Nikos is! (laughs).

G: Do you believe that not only the voice, but the stage presence of a singer plays a big role

N: Everything plays a role. There should be a combination of things there when you are exposed to the world. It is not enough to have a good voice. There are other things, like the ability to connect with people, an ability to feel these people around you and to feel yourself close to them.

G: What you can say regarding this year's experience of your collaboration with Giannis Parios

: It was the greatest experience in my life. It was a big honour for me. I will never forget
it. Once I told him: "If you will not do that again I will not talk to you anymore!" (Laughs). We had a lot of fun with Giannis. He is a good man. I appreciate what he did for me and the fact that we were singing together in front of people makes a big difference for me.

G: Did this cooperation come earlier than planned, not as you had in your mind

N: There is no plan in my mind for when to work with someone. If you want to work with someone you just wish and hope. With me it happened. I had thought about it from when I was a child, then it happened and still it seems like it is unreal! Thank God! I think I'm a very lucky man.

G: When you were a young boy, you were a good footballer. Have you regretted than you did not enter professional football

N: Pity that I never played football on the overcrowded stadium. It did not happen to me. I hope that in the next life I will be a football player.

G: What would you prefer: to sing at Eurovision or to play Football for a EURO CUP
N: A thousand times to play football for a EURO, because the Eurovision, from what I've seen in recent years, I think is ... how to say I just can not find the right word to say. You know what I do not like at all It is that we try to imitate foreign songs. Neighbouring countries have sung in their own languages and have got some very good positions. The song "Lane moje" of Zeljko Joksimovic in 2004 I think was the best number from previous years. Even though he did not win the 1st place, but came 2nd, still it was in their language. Maybe we Greeks should do the same. Why renounce our nationality We are Greeks and we should sing in Greek!

G: So, you are agree with Giorgos Alcaeus, who has chosen Greek lyrics.

N: Yes, indeed I agree with Alcaeus. I like him very much and I have listened to him from a very young age, because Giorgos has been singing for many years.

G: Do you like Opa (music: Giorgos Alcaeus , words: Giannis Antoniou L.V.)

N: I would not say that I madly like it, but it is a Greek song. For this reason alone I like it. Whether it will get first place or last, I am happy, as long as a Greek song is entered. Of course, there are some negative people, who would go on television again and start saying we think that it is not a good choice of the song . I would say "Fine, go and sing in English because you do not want the man who goes there with a Greek song! "

G: At least you know how things work on Greek television. That s why you recently made some impressive statements about the level of television.

N: Was that not truth Firstly, I do not like always to avoid the topic. What I said is my opinion and everyone is entitled to his opinion. I don t like at all the current TV. It does not offer me anything other than 2-3 persons performing each day and ... what to say now ... Shame. I am ashamed. Really. Old broadcasts by Roula Koromilas, by Kirios Chardavellas had good singers, actors, people with values and ideals. These people were expressing serious points of view. Now television is just set a of antics. It shows people who have nothing to say. Absolutely nothing. And it is dealing with their personal lives. Is it possible to deal with them while some other people have nothing to eat or are unpaid for months Why should I not say that After all, that is the reality. Do I lie Is it nice to see what I see No, it is not nice ...

G: Some blame you for judging TV, meaning that once you appeared on TV you then started to teach the world! There are many internet reviews that are negative for this your position.

N: Well, then I will answer by coming out of your question. Yes, I appeared on TV. So what Did I do something wrong I came to television, sang and then came out and recorded my CDs. And that was my purpose. What else did I do Is it bad to express my point of view on something that concerns me and everyone around me
G: You sang at Dream Show and then started to teach the world. Do you have regrets about things you were saying spontaneously

N. Maybe I should not do some things ... and to tell you the truth I blame myself a little bit, because I could not contain myself at one point and then did not stop, it was about my family life. I admit it. But that does not mean I did something on purpose. It happened because I'm spontaneous. I was not looking at the cameras, not thinking what to say. I never talked with strategy. Just was saying what I feel.

G: Do you think that if not the Dream Show you would never have made a career

N: I'll tell you what I firmly believe. When I was in the provinces and sang, I did not want to send a demo to any record label. I was saying: "There will be a moment when someone discovers me." I thought everything would be done gradually. For now it is like that. I have achieved success. Tomorrow maybe I will not have it. How do I feel about the fact that I've done so many hits I feel, I can swear for it, just nothing.

G: It is easy to believe in that. While we talk you don t stare at me, but look down. It seems that you don t ride on a high horse.

G: How do you choose your partners for the gigs you are doing
N: The talent is above all and the character is the next important quality. I feel these things instinctively.

G: Does the thought about who will come to your venue worry you I mean at the time of economic crisis

N: This worried me before the crisis too. But now, when people are going through the difficulties, it especially concerns me. I see it everyday and I feel sorry over that. It is upsetting that some people can t have fun. It is the worst thing when life is just work, when you can t do something for fun. I usually do not go out much, but instead I like to be with people in the venue: we are a group and we sing, it's fun for me. That is true. I made my job out of my hobby .

G: You said " It is the worst thing when life is just work. Did you say it because of your personal experience N: Yes, of course. Was I rich No, and nor am I rich now either. I am from a poor family of fishermen, who taught me to be the right man above all. I don t love money at all. And now here, in Athens, while working with the director, we never discuss money. Never!

G: You must be of exceptional kind!

N: Yes. That s what I do. I do not discuss money.

G: Are you satisfied with the records you ve done

N: Not always. Most of the time when I listen to them I realise that something could have been be done better.

G: Do you receive gifts from your fans

N: Yes. I can take icons, most of them are of St. Nicholas, rosaries and some really simple things. I appreciate them. If somebody brings a golden watch, for me it doesn t say much. I do not like expensive gifts. The movement itself is precious, it gives me a feeling of a contact. I love them (fans - LV)

G: Are you really the person you look like: a popular ("laiko") guy Or maybe when the lights and cameras are off you have a different life N: I don t try to show anything. I am what you see and hear. No more, no less. Let time prove what s behind the words.

G: Does it enter your mind, that the public who elevated you high can also throw you down

N: Of course, yes it happens. Does it worry me Yes, it does regarding my job. I try to be always better, not to disappoint people. My purpose is to let them hear great songs.

G: I read that you have a fear of hospitals and loneliness.

N: Yes. This is one more reason for me to sing. I sing because I want to be with people, not to be alone. I cannot live without singing, believe me. Now while I relax at home I don t waste the time. I think about time when we start rehearsals in Thea . This is what keeps me going. When you are sitting at home not doing what you love, it can drive you crazy.

G: Do you want to have a family

N: Yes, very much. I have missed this thing and I want to do it anyway. I wish God will give me a chance to have a proper family and to become a good family man.

G: What do you see as the right family life What is the ideal spouse for you Do you want her to be from the same space you are How do you have it in mind

N: I don t have any singer in mind, but if it happens, then I welcome it! I do not ever plan it. What I would like to have in the relationship of husband and wife is respect, honesty and love above all. These are for me the key ingredients to start a family. I know, problems exist in all families, but they should be sorted out as smoothly and softly as possible.

G: Are there some bogus stories written about you

N: Yes. There have been several stories written about my supposed to-be relationships, they have no basis.

G: If you were in love with a girl, would you go out with her without a fear of photography

If I'm in love then yes, I'll do it. I have never hidden the fact that I am a man who courted and flirts. You may ask Why for so long there is no a woman next to him ". That s right, but again I do not want to speak about my private life, I don t like talking about it. If it happens to me to fall in love, I will not hide it but I would try not to provoke interest. I will not go out to show it up. I will go to some quiet and beautiful place, to have a good time.
G: Can you protect the privacy of your personal life being who you are an artist

N: Certainly. Believe me. If you don t want to show anything, you will not show, and if you want to show, then it is so easy, you can do it at any time.

G: And often what we see is not a reality ...

N: Tell me about it! Surely not

G: Niko, do you have enemies

N: We all have enemies. And as I wish everybody health and love, I hope for them (enemies -LV) to have all of this too. Gianni, we are creating our enemies. That's it. I do not want to have them. May be others want ... Competition I can accept, but only healthy competition. Enemies I do not want to have. I forgive easily and I want others to forgive me because I make mistakes too often. Nobody is perfect.

G: Where will you go for Easter
N: For Easter I ll be in Patra, with my grandma, she is lonely since I left, then I will go to see my friends. And I will be with my dad, will see my mother, my little and my older brothers. It will be a family time.

G: Do you have a sister
N: No, we have man power in the family! (laughs). I would like to have a sister. When I was a boy I was saying "I wish I had one sister just to know her girl-friends!" (Laughs).

It is indeed very bright and its shade will as well put feminine glam and sophistication to whatever ensemble you wish to wear.

Communication Philosophy At the Top Of The Pyramid -Dscount Handbags

Luxury brands are aimed at providing products and services to consumers who are standing on the top of the social pyramid. This requires systematic cooperation of all the aspects of the company. During the process of creating and maintaining a luxury brand, how can communications serve the brand position Are there any specific communication laws or guidelines within the mass brands In this paper you will find the answer.


The well-known Academy Awards are held in March every year at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles. This show has profound meanings besides its movie connotations. For the general audience, it is the most authoritative film awards ceremony in the U.S. However, for the operators of luxury brands, it is a commercial show.

Chanel, Armani and other luxury brands sponsor stars like Halle Berry, and Nicole Kidman to be their brands top models. The stars evening dresses, hand bags, shoes, jewelry, make-ups, and even the cars that they drive to the shows will become a part of the campaign for the luxury brands. Their charm will find the expression in the audiences crave for the celebrities in this mysterious and glorious moment - the Academy Awards.

Owing to people s attention to the Oscars and their admiration and love for the stars, even after the show, the Media agencies are still willing to publish things that are related to it. You can still feel the charm and elegance of the stars whenever you turn on the TV or read fashion magazines. Luxury brands continuously double and enlarge the investment in the Oscars and use active communications so as to gain the best returns on their investment.

The marketing process of luxury brands is in full swing in the throws of fierce brand competition during the Academy Awards ceremony. Compared with some popular brands like Coca Cola, Lux, GAP and McDonalds, luxury brands, which aim at providing products and services to the consumers standing on the top of the social pyramid, have certain unique advantages. This paper will sum up their unique communication guidelines for reference and enlightenment from three different aspects.

To be the symbol of the best life style

Why do luxury brands take the Academy Awards ceremony to be a battlefield To be sure, it is due to the appeal and influence of the stars, which can create extraordinary trends. When we see Sharon Stone walking down the red carpet with her GAP trousers in perfect match with a CD bag, this will immediately cause a global upsurge of imitation. Moreover, when consumers find that the stars that they are familiar with, love, and admire are using the same brand of cosmetics or clothes as theirs, the brand value will be reaffirmed in their minds.

Why do Spyker sports cars always emphasize that they are vehicles of the Dutch royal family The noble status of the royal family give the brand its honor and superb quality guarantee. Anyone who is driving a Spyker sports car will have the opportunity to experience a "Royal" lifestyle.

The consumers image that the luxury brands are dedicated to creating are: high-end consumers who are living on the top of society, such as members of the royal family, celebrities, stars, tycoons and so on. Luxury brands managed to get the recognition of the people who are standing on the top of the society through shaping and strengthening the brand s image to their consumers. This accordingly helps to form the positive effect of imitation to other sectors of society.

When establishing the consumers brand image, luxury brands further strengthen their own brand images by closely connecting the life styles of high-end consumers. Therefore, luxury brands will not consider taking part in activities of the general populace, as this would reduce their value". When luxury brands involve themselves in sports activities, all of them are closely related to F1 racing, golf, tennis or other high-end sports activities. From 1992 to 2003, TAGHEUER was dominated as the official timer for F1 races. In each race, TAGHEUER is required to deliver 20 tons of equipment, employ more than 30 employees and rent Siemens data-processing devices to complete this task. There are as many as four world-famous golf tournaments that are famous due to the Dunhill name; Dunhill Cup, Dunhill Open, the Dunhill British Masters and Dunhill Challenge.

Connection with the arts is also an important means of luxury brands to strengthen their own high-end images. Montblanc, which always stresses the principle of "art , sponsored the founding of the German International Philharmonic Orchestra in 1995. Since 1992, with the establishment of "Montblanc International Arts sponsor Award ", the brand has already honored as many as 85 outstanding arts patrons around the world.

Luxury brands can firmly seize the attention of the participants through sponsoring and supporting fine arts and high-end consumers favorite sports activities. That s because they are the potential consumers of Luxury brands. At the same time, different art forms and sports activities can introduce the rich imagination of luxury brands. Most importantly, they are all in accordance with the life styles of high-end people and can strengthen the status of the brands.

Knowledge and brand stories will create brand value

How can luxury brands introduce their own products while building a high-end image and high-end life style Bentley gives a good interpretation about the means of communication of luxury brands: "Bentley will rarely talk about technology and technology standards, but rather chooses to tell their consumers lots of brand stories. By doing this, we hope that our customers can boast by telling these stories to their friends.

Consumers interest in a brand name will naturally be increased after the brand achieves the status of "luxury". The reasons are as follows. First, the high prices shock average consumers and people naturally become curious as to why something gets so expensive. Second, the high-end life styles that luxury brands represent are actually the things favored by all walks of life in society.

Due to all of these reasons, the luxury brands can communicate and educate the consumers through a variety of media and various channels. Bernard Enuoerte, CEO of LVMH said: Take LV for example, it has a 150 year history, thus can introduce its traditional production design to the customers very easily. Meanwhile, the brand can also promote their latest design concepts.

In fact, only through the dissemination of brand knowledge can the value of luxury brands be created! A bottle of Guerlain facial cream of RMB 2,900 is made from precious orchids; One Hermes scarf will have 90 test versions before they decide on one; Every pair of Bally shoes can be sold on the market only after an average of 200 strict production tests; Tiffany emphasizes repeatedly on its brand communications that the craftsmanship of their designers are wonderful, and also stress originality as the essence of their jewelry; Mercedes-Benz equipped its S series with more than 12 leading-edge technologies, each kind can be put into a very long article for auto enthusiasts to read.

If we do not have a better understanding of the product and brand knowledge, and just judge a brand purely from its functionality and directly from its appearance, then the differences from other brands seem only very minor. What makes brands of shoes different is the quality and craftsmanship, not functionality. Equally, we can hardly distinguish the huge differences in the technical aspects between Mercedes-Benz cars and other cars of the same class on appearance alone.

The concept of brand design, brand culture, history, time of production, unique craftsmanship, the cutting-edge technology and relatively high-quality services are actually the content of the "stories". Compared to popular brands, showing the values of luxury brands to the minds of their consumers by telling them brand stories determines the success or failure of these brands. The excitement of a sales staff from a famous watch shows us the strength of the brands construction: "The higher status the customers enjoy with more knowledge, the more complex watch they tend to choose. They like to show off their rich knowledge about watches to the sales staff while they are making their purchase. Sometimes, they even know more about the watch than a staff does. Only after obtaining a better understanding of such knowledge, can you truly understand the value of the watch.

Why do some consumers love to pay so much money for a luxury brand while the only difference from other similar products is merely a logo First of all, it is because they know that the meaning of the logo symbolizes the value of the brand, in other words, the value of the luxury brand is indeed created by communications.

The unified sound of the global media

Nowadays, no matter where we are, Bangkok, Tokyo, New York or Shanghai, as long as we are in one of the most prosperous business centers, we will see the logo and specialty shops of Chanel, Kenzo and LV. These shops have refined decoration and unified style where they display global synchronized products by season. Similarly, in Bangkok, Tokyo, New York or Shanghai, the successful men around the world have the same interests for luxury brands. One of the most important reasons for this is the unified high-end image the luxury brands have built around the globe.

With the progress of globalization, for those who are standing on the top of the social pyramid, it is becoming just as convenient and easy as to go from their kitchen to their bedroom, as it is to go back and forth to different cities and different countries. Whichever corner of the world they venture to they wish to be able to find their favorite brands. If a woman is wearing a Chanel jacket, she will be very confident, no matter where she goes, people will give her similar acknowledgements for her taste and social status. Therefore, luxury brands in the world must be able to maintain a unified brand status. There will be no China's Kenzo nor a United States Prada , because what the consumers of the luxury brands want to buy actually are the expression of their own status and the embodiment of their own personality. If the brand status has changed, then they will leave, and never take the trouble to use the brand again.

Because of the rapid development of media, the unified images of the luxury brands become even more important and necessary.

In the TV series "Sex & the City , the heroine Carrie Bradshaw showed her love and hatred for the high price of Prada. China s gold-collar workers also share these kinds of feelings. This is an example of the same brand evaluation and consistent brand message unified together in the process of global communication. For a luxury brand, it is enough to win the public awareness just through a product placement in a popular Hollywood movie such as 007.

The consumers can get an intimate contact with Marc Jacob's fashion show in Paris and Armani s fashion party in Milan through TV, Internet, magazines, newspapers and another hundred means, in more than 10 languages at the same time.

Therefore, Burberry could publish the same print ad, using the same model, the same style in all the fashion magazines over the world. This is because the British, lattice style and classic style are what consumers want to buy. We could only imagine what the feeling of consumers would be if Burberry abandoned its British style, and instead chose New York for their background material. They would immediately feel that the brand has deviated from its usual style, and is "not like Burberry anymore," so they would instantly lose the reason to buy it.

Conclusion

Luxury brands have surpassed national boundaries, becoming a symbol of top social life style through continuously telling of brand stories, communicating brand knowledge and unifying brand images throughout all kinds of mediums in the world.

As for Chinese luxury brand managers and entrepreneurs, who are willing to manage the business of luxury brands, besides the product quality, excellent design and cost control, things that still need to be considered are: how can we make people at the top recognize, see, and be familiar with luxury brands and the top services they offer How to successfully build a high-end brand image How to create content for brand stories How to vividly tell the brand stories to consumers How to build world wide influence of the brand through global mediums

It will require time, wisdom, effort, devotion and most importantly, patience to fulfill the above requirements, because to establish a successful brand is not a one-day job, it needs continuous, thorough and eminent efforts to build recognition of luxury brands to the consumers.

Bridal salons provide more than gorgeous wedding dresses and bridesmaid gowns. Many bridal salons also have consultants that can help you plan your wedding from choosing invitations, the reception menu, flowers and photographers to deciding what kind of cake should be served.


It may surprise you to learn that working with a bridal salon can save you money. Most bridal salons have established relationships with a range of service providers and fees.

The average wedding, not including the rings or honeymoon, costs a bit over $25,000. The experienced consultants at a bridal salon can help you get your money's worth.

Wedding Attire

Of course the wedding consultant will help find the perfect wedding gown within your budget. Don't be embarrassed to be specific as to how much you want to spend. A range within a thousand dollars gives the most flexibility, say from $2,000 to $3,000 or $4,500 to $5,500.

In addition to providing guidance and input about the bridal gown, bridal salon consultants can also help you choose the bridesmaids dresses. It's not necessary to order them at the same time as the wedding gown, but selecting them gives each attendant time to get fitted. Arrange for the groom and groomsmen's tuxedos or other formal wear and you've completed the attire for the wedding party.

Don't forget accessories such as undergarments, shoes, purses, and hair ornaments. Seeing the entire wedding dress ensemble means you know exactly what you'll be wearing. It also means you'll save time because you won't have to do extra shopping.

Location

You may decide that you'll choose the location of your wedding ceremony and reception yourself. But bridal salon consultants can provide a wealth of information and inspiration for unique wedding locations. Most will know which venues will fit the type of wedding and reception you have planned.

They will also know which allow offsite caterers and which have a policy that only in-house prepared food to be served. Bridal salon consultants can also give you a good idea of what kind of deposit is expected. And perhaps, most importantly she'll know which venues take pride in putting together the wedding of a bride's dream, and which have a one-size-fits-all, wedding assembly line mentality.

Reception

The reception is one of the major expenses of a wedding. It's confusing to have to choose between a sit down full service meal, a buffet or perhaps just appetizers. It may surprise you to learn that a buffet may cost as much as a served meal because guests have a tendency to self-serve themselves much more than they will eat.

Talk to your bridal salon consultant and see what she or he has to say about menu planning. For example, you might be convinced that a three course meal: salad, entrée, and dessert is your only option because it's the only one the caterer brings up.

But an experienced bridal salon consultant knows that dessert isn't really necessary because you'll be serving your guests wedding cake. So why not substitute appetizers for the dessert or a pricier entrée She also knows that having a waiter pass the appetizers on a tray ends up costing less money than self-serve.

Many bridal salon consultants can also help out when it comes to determining how much alcohol to buy for the wedding. Many brides and grooms make the mistake of underestimating how much their guests may want. Weddings are parties, and even people who don't normally imbibe will drink at a wedding. She'll also know that unopened bottles should be returned for credit, that house branded liquors are the better option than premium, or recommend that only wine, champagne and beer be served.

Flowers

Flowers are an integral part of any wedding. Talk to your bridal salon consultant and see if she can recommend a bridal bouquet that best complements your dress and wedding theme. She or he has a good ballpark knowledge of what different types of flowers cost, as well as their season and availability. Your bridal salon consultant may even be able to suggest a reputable vendor.

Unload the Stress

Working with a bridal salon consultant can make the entire wedding planning process feel a lot more manageable. The experts at bridal salons are accustomed to dealing with brides who may feel a little frazzled or out of their depth.

They ll take the time to understand your ideal vision, help you stay within your budget, and offer creative input and ideas that you may have never even considered. Take advantage of their years of experience and wealth of knowledge. Visiting a bridal salon ensures that you ll get the dream dress you ve always wanted, but it s also a great way to tackle the million other details associated with wedding planning.

Use furniture with rounded corners. Else, cover sharp corners with home made or store bought corner guards. Use a straight-slatted, screw-mounted gate at the top and the bottom of a stairway. Never use pressure gates at the top of the stairs.


Install vent locks or a window guard on upper story windows to keep them from opening more than three and a half inches. Do not use table clothes when toddlers are around.
Everything should be kept in its original container to avoid mix-ups between food items and poisons

Make sure all purses are placed out of reach, especially ones with any pills inside. If your TV stand isn't sturdy, buy one with a wide base and keep the TV away from the edge. Secure the stand to the wall.

Never run fans on the floor with an infant or toddler around, their fingers are small and can enter the grill area of the fan. Keep floors clean and vacuumed. Toddlers have an amazing sense for small objects that end up in their mouth and could cause choking

Keep all sharp objects and tools out of reach. Never let your children run with something in their mouth. Never let your children run with something sharp in their hands. Never let your children walk with glass objects in their hands.

Keep an eye out for sharp objects on walls, toys, cribs, playpens, or strollers. Use plastic instead of glass, whenever possible. Always pick up toys, so that no one slips and falls on them.

Studies show that children may be damaging their spine by carrying heavy or poor fitting kid backpacks. This is especially true for school going children. Backpacks that are not proper would cause muscle strain, distortion of the spinal curve or drooping shoulders. It may also lead to painful back, neck and shoulder problems which can last a lifetime.

The following are important tips on choosing the right backpack:

It must be light weight. Size of the bag should be no larger than the child's back. It should preferably be ergonomically designed to protect the child's back. Ensure it has a waist strap that helps direct the load away from the shoulders onto the much stronger waist and hip muscle groups. Two shoulder straps to balance the load on both shoulders is convenient. It also should have wide straps to distribute load over a wider area of the shoulder and padded to alleviate any pressure points. Besides, the shoulder straps should be adjustable so the backpack can be fitted to the child's body

It is also important to take note of physicians' recommendation that the total gross weight of the kid backpack with contents should not exceed 15% of the child s body weight.
