Gran Can't Get To Your Wedding?

Friends and relatives abroad,  Gran has a bad leg and won't be able to attend your special day or worried that everyone won't be able to come to your exotic destination wedding!

Don't worry you can still have everyone present on your big day with some pretty funky and easy to use technology.

An easy way is to get a techy friend to sign-up for skype premium and stream the ceremony live to your absent loved ones from a laptop or ipad. Skype premium allows more than one person to view at the same time.

 If you want a more reliable service than Skype (we've all had those calls drop out inconveniently) then you may want to try Livestream. This super sexy service allows you to show your ceremony and reception live to everyone you invite, and amazingly it can be embedded onto your facebook page to make it easy for all to see. A bit more expensive but worth the extra cost for peace of mind.

So worry over, another great idea from The Pink Famingo Wedding & Event Company.

Your Symbol of Eternity

Your wedding  ring is the most recognisable symbol that you have become husband and wife. To feel it on your finger will remind you of the love that you share, even when you are apart.

The wedding ring dates back to the ancient Egyptians of around 4,800 years ago, when the first rings were braided from rushes and reeds from the river Nile. The Egyptians believed the ring, shaped in a circle, stood as the symbol for eternity. Like time, it had no beginning and no end. They also believed that the space inside the ring symbolised a gateway, or door, leading to things and events both known and unknown.

They wore it like we do today on the third finger of the left hand because of a belief that the vein of that finger directly travelled to the heart. This legend was later taken up by the Greeks, then passed onto the Romans, who called this the 'vena amoris' which is Latin for the 'the vein of love'.

This may or not be a myth, but for romantics all over the world young or old, this is the reason they will always wear their wedding ring on their fourth finger of their left hand.
