My Events Made Easy: 2011

Hazara Jewellery

My First Wedding Fair – ‘affordable weddings’ the theme of the day

What a day it was! Firstly I would like to thank the organisers; the fashion show, dancers, music and the drummers created a great party atmosphere. Hazara Jewellery was proud to be there with the team from My Events Made Easy; it was truly the team effort that made it a really productive and enjoyable day.

I gathered from all the feedback from the brides to be that when you start to plan your wedding, you want it to be as perfect as possible; to reflect your personality and be a celebration of your special day with family and friends with the best of everything. But after this initial thought, reality kicks in and the thought of all the expenditure involved takes over.

Hazara Jewellery was created out of my desire to allow all brides to wear the best fabulous jewellery on the big day without worrying about the huge expenditure; hence the idea of hiring jewellery. The concept is new within the Asian Community, but it was very well received by all the brides to be as well as the groom’s to be!

I believe this may well be one of the major changes to the world of Asian Weddings and Hazara Jewellery is proud to be one of the first to offer this fresh approach within the Asian Community.

It was great to meet all the other exhibitors and the brides to be; thanks for all the positive feedback and I look forward to doing business with you in the near future.

TOP 3 PROPOSALS FROM WIMPOLE HALL WEDDING FAIR

OUR WINNERS ARE

1. Proposal 1 Holiday proposal (Child Proposed)

I was on holiday in Greece with my partner and son.

One evening whilst on holiday our little boy got down on one knee with the ring in his hand and said "Daddy wants to marry you".

(this is the lady who then started crying at our stand - Kerry said they were 'Happy Tears!')

2. Proposal 2 Birthday proposal (Treasure Hunt)

She woke up to lots of presents on her birthday.

Inside one of the presents was the first clue to a Treasure Hunt.

At each destination she would find a present and another clue.

The clues led her round Cambridgeshire the whole day to places they liked to go (i.e. first dates).

Finally, they went for a punt and above one of the bridges were her family and friends.

They lowered the last clue on a ribbon.

Her partner went down on one knee (balancing in the punt) and asked ‘Will you marry me?’

3. Proposal 7 London Proposal (Lies, Lies & More Lies)

The ring was organised in advance by asking a friend of my partner to lie in order to get the ring size & style.

I often have work trips to London, so this time I said my trip to London was for two.

My friend collected us in his Black Cab and took us to London Eye, where I had booked a Capsule for 2 with Champagne.

At the top, I got down on one knee and proposed, my partner was stunned and said 'Yes'

Wimpole Wedding Fair

The wedding Fayre at Wimpole Hall was wonderful and we all thoroughly enjoyed meeting the bides-to-be.

We decided to take the opportunity to do a bit of research into romantic poposals.
Most popular trends amongst the propsals were:

Seeking permission from the father of the bride beforehand

Buying the ring in advance

Telling lots of fibs

One lady who wasn't getting married asked me to give a message to her boyfriend.
"I love you very much, and would love to marry you, so please propose".

Here are our top 7 most romantic stories.

Proposal 1 Holiday proposal (Child Proposed)
I was on holiday in Greece with my partner and son.
One evening whilst on holiday our little boy got down on one knee with the ring in his hand and said "Daddy wants to marry you".

(this is the lady who then started crying at our stand - Kerry said they were 'Happy Tears!' )

Proposal 2 Birhday proposal (Treasure Hunt)
She woke up to lots of presents on her birthday.
Inside one of the presents was the first clue to a Teasure Hunt.
At each destination she would find a present and another clue.
The clues led her round Cambridgeshire the whole day to places they liked to go (i.e. first dates).
Finally, they went for a punt and above one of the bridges were her family and friends.
They lowered the last clue on a ribbon.
Her partner went down on one knee (balancing in the punt) and asked ‘Will you marry me?’

Proposal 3 Holiday proposal (Bells)
I had given up hope of my boyfriend proposing.
We went on holiday to Venice and were in St Mark’s Square.
Just as the bells were starting to ring at midnight (announcing the arrival of Valentine’s Day) , my boyfriend got down on one knee and proposed.

Proposal 4 Holiday proposal (On The Bed)
We were on holiday in Spain and had returned to the hotel after an evening out.
I popped to the loo and when I came back my partner was sitting on the bed with the ring in his hand.
He said "This is for you". I replied: "Have you got something to ask me then?" – the rest is history!

Proposal 5 Holiday proposal (Holiday Snap With A Difference)
We were on holiday in Tenerife.
My partner set up the camera with a 10 second delay to take a photo of both of us.
During the 10 seconds my partner got down on one knee and proposed.
We now have the photo enlarged and framed at home.
The photo also includes my bump (who we met sitting in the buggy), so a lovely family photo.

Proposal 6 Holiday proposal (Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend)
I was really hoping my boyfriend would propose as he took me on holiday to Belgium and were visiting Antwerp (the Diamond captial).

I was so patient, but he didn't take me into a single Jewellers shop in Antwerp, so I was starting to get a bit tearful.

We sat in the gardens outside a museum and he proposed.

Proposal 7 London Proposal (Lies, Lies & More Lies)
The ring was organised in advance by asking a friend of my partner to lie in order to get the ring size & style.
I often have work trips to London, so this time I said my trip to London was for two.
My friend collected us in his Black Cab and took us to London Eye, where I had booked a Capsule for 2 with Champagne.
At the top, I got down on one knee and proposed, my partner was stunned and said 'Yes'

Garden Party Entertainment

We hire out GIANT GARDEN GAMES for added entertainment during your party. Whether a garden party or in a marquee we have a range of games that will get everyone joining in.

These games are suitable for all ages and get everyone up and participating. They can be set up before the start of the event and need very little supervision during the event so you entertainment without any hassle.

Here are a few hints on how to use the games – PART 1

Giant 6ft Jeronimo – This game is made of solid wood and when it falls can be heavy and quite loud, it great fun and can be built up to 6ft in height. It will keep teenagers and adults amused for hours but the little ones need to be supervised. It’s a great to be played as a team game getting everyone participating. You start with building the tower with three wooded blocks on each level and then the guests playing take one brick and place on the top. This is repeated until the towers falls.

Giant 4 in a Row – This game is suitable for all ages and can be played sitting down. Although only 2 people can play at one time, supporter can lend their thoughts and strategies or you can play as two teams. Guest as they arrive can be placed in a team and after the first game, the winner plays the next team on your list.

Giant Garden Draught - This is an old favorite. Played the same way as the tabletop board game but on a large scale. In this game you have to get you draught to the other side of the board without being “jumped”. You can only move forward unless your draught has reached the other side and then you are crowned and can move in both directions. Because this is on a large scale it’s a lot harder to see the overview and you can miss opportunities [ especially after a glass of wine ].

3 Top Tips for magnificent mezze from MoreSouth

Is mezze a mystery to you?

The word ‘mezze’ derived from the Persian has come to mean ‘a pleasing taste.’

MoreSouth follows the mediterranean tradition of mezze. We invite you to compose a feast from a selection of locally sourced produce, and freshly prepared buffet dishes that can be adapted to either finger food or fork buffet meals.

Mezze is the most versatile of menu formats, suitable equally for a corporate meeting/function or a great wedding party.

What are the three secrets of a good mezze table?

1) Be surprising.
The Prelude. Enhance the appetite by presenting many tiny bowls of jewel-like glistening colours and tastes. Bite-sized, intense and sometimes piquant flavours prepare for what is to come.
In the Middle East mezze is accompanied with a glass of ‘arak’ (similar to Pernod) or fragrant, refreshing mint tea.
Perfect for: Party, Canape Reception, Cocktail Party

Try: Bruschetta with roast pepper and cannelloni bean puree, Houmus with tahini, Labaneh (soft white cheese balls rolled in 3 different spices), Italian breadsticks, freshly roasted pistachios, rich green olives, garlicy dips.

2) Be sensual.
Work the senses of sight, smell and taste with an aesthetic, well-presented spread. Tip: ‘open sandwiches’ give a lovely, visual variation to a buffet table. Imagine a mosaic of colour.
Perfect for: Working Lunch, Networking Event, Lunch buffet
Try: Ciabattas, Bagels, Baguettes, Rolls (guaranteed 100% organic) with Mozzarell, pesto & tomato, Smoked Salmon, Salami or Mediterranean Chicken fillings. Local, organic Cheeseboard with celery, nuts and grapes, Fruit Platters,

3) Be satisfying.
Serve generous, abundant dishes in accordance with Mediterranean hospitality. Always offer your mezze with baskets of warm pitta bread or rosemary focaccia.
Perfect for: Wedding, Dinner Party, Corporate Event
Try: Prawns in white wine, garlic and chilli, Turkish pizza, Lamb kofta skewer, Moroccan Carrot salad, Falafel, Chicken barbecues drumsticks, Rocket pizzetas, Seasonal platter of organic crudités.

Mezze can be a teasing taster, a delicious lunch table or a sumptuous buffet dinner. Or even a picnic. And don’t forget the cakes!
Join our shared table. Sign up for the MoreSouth newsletter on the website .
Every Friday lunch we publish a recipe for your weekend mezze table on ‘more-MoreSouth, the blog.’
