For couples, Valentine’s Day is one of the most important days of the year. It seems a little tacky because of all the advertising and hype that surrounds it - and it may get a bit of fun poked at it - but when it comes down to it, having a day to celebrate love and romance is appreciated by everybody. If your partner didn’t get you a gift on the fourteenth you would feel a little let down whatever you thought of the holiday.

Showing you care can be difficult. Figuring out what to get a loved one for Valentine’s Day is not an easy task! Are you going the traditional route of flowers and chocolates? Maybe you could try to find something more personal to put a spin on a traditional gesture. Everybody loves a romantic night out - taking your loved one for a romantic meal and a movie or show could be the perfect Valentine’s Day.

A man has never gone wrong buying a bouquet of roses for Valentine’s Day. This February, why not try and take your gift of flowers to the next level and find a way to make them a bit personal? Try and remember what the last flowers you saw in her house were, or if she ever mentioned a favourite to you. Remembering small details can really set your gift apart.

Time is the most precious thing you can spend on your partner for Valentine’s Day. Finding a gift that lets you spend the day together is the most valuable you can give. Whether you find a film to enjoy at home together along with a romantic homemade meal, or you and your partner spend the night out together, Valentine’s Day is supposed to be a day shared as a couple.

Valentine’s Day is a day to show affection for your partner. Whether you do something small to show that you care or you go all out and make a day out of it, doing something for your loved one whatever you think of the day is important not because of the day, but because of what they mean to you.

The Bachelors Party No No List

March 22nd, 2010

There is a fine line of things that you may not want to do during your bachelors party or at least, you may not want to be caught doing. This is a short list of some of these bachelor party favorites that are very popular among its participants but not so much with the soon to be spouses that don’t need to know. (ever)

First, it is not a good idea to have your bachelor’s party on the night before your wedding. There is nothing more annoying to a new bride than a soon to be husband that already smells like perfume and stale beer so if you have your party the night before, either try to get in early enough to shower and shave, or at least pick the bar nuts out of your beard before the ceremony. It is just good manners to brush your teeth as well, especially if you were having tacos at your big party. Whatever you do, remember that the hair of the dog that bit you is only a quick fix and that dog will bite you if you try it before the wedding. It would suck if you suddenly barfed all over the ring pillow and the ring pillow bearer.

If you are the kind of guy that gets into trouble every time you take a drink, it would probably be wise to avoid the booze and just enjoy the party. There is nothing wrong with a little pre-wedding celebration of single life as long as you do not bring it to the wedding with you. No one will appreciate a groom who needs a broom to get last nights plights off of his clothes or who stands swaying at the alter barely staying awake. If you miss your cue and do not say “I Do” at the right time, your ship may sail before it even gets into port.

Keep a couple of bottles of tic tacs in your pocket and shake one out every couple of minutes. You can always use the excuse that your mouth is dry in anticipation of the big moment. Act as nervous as you can to cover up the fact that you have the day after shakes. In this instance, you are supposed to be a little nervous and this will work in your favor. Just do not overplay your hand. Being too nervous will be a dead give-away or give the impression that you are having second thoughts and that is almost as bad as what you may or may not have done last night. I bet you wish you could remember.

One of the biggest traps you can fall into is also one of the oldest traps you can fall into and yet, we men fall into almost every time. You have to be extremely careful who you invite to the wedding the night before while in a drunken stupor. It would not bode very well for you to see Dixie, Trixie, and Bubbles jumping up and down and waving from the front row during the service. This is a sure fire way to get busted doing something you shouldn’t have been doing, especially if you told your new wife that your party was just a boring affair with the guys and that you met at the library to discuss the latest Harry Potter book. Oh, and by the way, avoid the word affair at all cost. The word, even casually used, will cost men nothing but grief and should be stricken from the dictionary completely.
