Choosing Your Wedding Shoe's

Choosing the perfect wedding shoe might seem like a simple task but is advised 2 choose shoes you will be comfortable in and not because you like a particular shoe design or because you saw someone wearing a certain type on there wedding day. Your own wedding setting and style might be different.

Once upon a time wedding shoes were white silk or Satin,times are changing, lets discuss wedding shoe ‎

Comfort is key when selecting any shoe,when it comes to a wedding shoe,you should be very careful when looking out for a shoe. Your big day will be exhausting so If your not good with heels,your wedding day is not the perfect time to try them out cox you wont be comfortable and people will quickly notice you ain't comfortable,stick with shoes you comfortable in.

‎when choosing a wedding shoe,figure out price range,you wouldn't want to spend lot buying just one pair of shoe for your wedding when you have other things to fix,most times you hear some ladies share their experience like "After my wedding day,i haven't put on my wedding shoes" or "l gave it out" but if you can afford an expensive designer please give your yourself a Treat

Try your shoes indoors severally before your big day,to see if they feet in perfectly like when you first tried them.if u will be wearing a panty hose make sure you try them on as well, to see if u really like to use them.

Prevent Shoe slippage. Sandpaper the bottom of your shoes or cut a piece of it on d bottom. A little prevention can help prevent embarrassing event of slipping down d aisle‎.‎

Let's discuss Asoebi, if it is important and its cost!

 Hardly can you see an event without a set of people uniquely dressed in similar dresses or fabrics! The Similar Fabric which maybe sewed in different style is Called “Aso Ebi” in yoruba Language and this Trend originated from the yoruba People!
The trend was meant for close family members however is common to see friend show up in Aso-ebi.

Aso'ebi is a common feature of many nigerian weddings,burial ceremonies,etc irrespective of Location(home and abroad)!
To ensure Uniformity in dress code,celebrants sell fabrics to friends and family at specific rates b4 the day of their Occassion!

Its no news that most celebrants now use the Aso'ebi sales as a form of business where excessive gain is obtained!


Aso'Ebi is inevitably considered as glamorous! It is believed that without the touch of this communal trend at events the event is not complete!

So many Celebrants borrow/loan money just to buy Aso'ebi so they can sell to friends!

Some even go beyond Nigeria to Dubai,London to select their fabrics depending on their status or how expensive the party is!

_

The cost of Aso'Ebi Fabric is alarming! The price of  fabric is doubled when buying as Aso'ebi when one could get two of such items in the market!

Most people go the extra mile to make sure they are part of a celebrants Aso'ebi crew!

People attach so much importance to the Aso'Ebi piece of Fabric!

Some say it's because of the preferential treatment people who wear Aso'Ebi get @Events‎

Finally,No matter how imperative,fashionable Aso'Ebi might b,it must not lose its essence women and ladies in general should not be desperate in acquiring or selling the Aso'ebi for social Events

If you don't have the finance to purchase n sell,why not give your guest your event color theme ahead of time so they work 2wards it?

Single ladies if you can't afford it,wear ur best to d Events

Choosing The Right Caterer

Finding the perfect caterer is an essential part of any  event. Weddings, corporate events, parties and family gatherings are all times when the services of a caterer might be needed. Unfortunately, there is no standardized grading system for caterers and anybody can start their own catering business. Here's how to choose a good caterer so that the food at your event is something palatable. 

‎Listen to Word Of Mouth-

No amount of advertising can replace a good recommendation from somebody you know and trust. If a friend or acquaintance had a great caterer for their Event, then this is a caterer you should talk to for your next big event. Conversely, bad reviews should also be heeded.

‎Schedule a tasting- 

Caterers who provide food for large events should offer to provide you with a tasting, in order to gain your business for a large contract. Keep in mind, however, that this tasting will be the very best product the caterers can produce. There's also often a huge difference in quality between preparing a meal for 2 compared to 500.

‎Consider the caterer Speciality-

Some caterers specialize in larger scale events and have the equipment and expertise to professionally handle larger numbers of guests. Other caterers specialize in smaller intimate events, cocktail parties, or even just delivery of catered food. Be wary of the caterer who claims to be able to do it all, It is important to try a minimun of five (5) Caterers before you finally settle for one after your satisfied with tastings and Quotation!

After selecting your prefered caterer,provide your caterer with your date,time of reception,number of guests,level of Hospitability you wish them to provide!

Remember to book a caterer on time,cox caterers tend to get booked up in months advance!‎ are that they don't excel at any of it.‎

Arrange on d kind of Serving Style Setting you want(Buffet or family style,Menu item stations,A formal dinner or different option?

Ask the median cost per person for their service and what comes with the package

 Ask for ratio of servers to guests(how many servers to a table)

Besides catering what other services can you Choosing the right caterer for your event is a very important and crucial task

We all knw how  things might turn out to be if we leave our wedding recipe in the hands of family members/friends or less qualified caterers to handle! At Times we get disappointed!

Ask if the chef who was present during the tasting will be around for your event, cos at times to get client to book the best chef is used for tastings den another takes charge during your event.

Be wise‎‎‎
