A wallet-friendly wedding with wishlanterns   by Joanna Bedford

A woman's (and often a man's- I don't want to be accused of gender discrimination) wedding day is often one of the most significant moments of her/his life. For many of us, the planning of this day will have started long before we have even met our future partners. Thoughts of the dress, the flowers the food will have wafted through our naive childhood musings. That weddings hold a special status in our society, is an accepted and established fact. The numerous websites, publications and companies dedicated to this one day in a couple's life, and the high stress levels, years of preparation, and folders of cuttings, venue lists and itineraries, are testament to this. But just because a wedding is so vital, life-altering for that matter, it doesn't mean that it has to cost an arm and a leg. You shouldn't have to spend the rest of your lives recovering from the vast hole it has burnt in your wallets.
On the flip side, no one wants a wedding that appears to be a cheap cut-out copy of a more expensive extravaganza, of the 'real' thing. You don't want to be cutting corners on quality or aesthetic appeal. You want your guests to remember your wedding as a wonderful celebration of two people's commitment to one another, not a dodgy affair, with food from Iceland, plastic cutlery and a £5 an hour DJ who plays 'Baby Love' on repeat. This is where Wish Lanterns come in. They offer and wonderful and original spectacle without the insane bill at the end.
The best thing about Wish lanterns, is that they are unique. They're not like the generic fireworks that provide the climax of most other celebrations. And they're magical to observe, with a calming rather than agitating effect. Picture one hundred or so lanterns ascending majestically into the night sky, lighting up the heavens like one hundred litle stars. Wish Lanterns also offer the option of adding your own personalised wishes to each lantern. Ask your guests to scrawl a dedication to you and your newlywed, or write a good wish for the future, and send it off into the abyss. This adds a lovely touch to your special day. Not only will you be able to watch a stunning display, there will be that extra element of symbolism, a positive and hopeful overlay on the ceremony.
In short, you cannot afford not to feature wish lanterns at your wedding. Just because you can't corners on price, it doesn't mean you have to cut corners anywhere else.

Meticulously crafted but also ponderous and predictable, James Cameron’s 1989 deep-sea close-encounter epic reaffirms one of the oldest first principles of cinema: everything moves a lot more slowly underwater. Ed Harris and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, as formerly married petroleum engineers who still have some “issues” to work out, are drafted to assist a gung-ho Navy SEAL (Michael Biehn) with a…
