Anyone know where to get married in either delaware or delaware county?

we are on a tight budget... so have around 6 grand for everything hoping to have the ceremony and reception at the same place. we were thinking about 120 guests...having trouble finding the place doesn't have to be fancy fancy.Anyone know where to get married in either delaware or delaware county?
Ooh, tough. I'm in DE. Best bet would be to call Talleyville Fire Co. You've got about 42/head to work with, consider the gratuity (18-20 percent) that needs to be added in. Also, hall rental costs, bartender costs need to be considered. Some places, the deposit comes off the overall meal, others it does not. A buffet is less than a seated meal. Five Points fire co. is further south in the Newport area and is a little less expensive. Cranston Heights, and Elsmere fire hall included.





Can you cut the guest list at all?

Mine was at talleyville, caterer Le Chateau Gourmet (which was the best wedding food ever)





I've been to five points for a lovely wedding. Cranston Heights and Elsmere have been updated in recent years and I have not been there since before the makeovers.Anyone know where to get married in either delaware or delaware county?
Delaware. Delaware is a beautiful state and I love it! I know you would love it too!

Is it possible to get married in Florida on a Sunday?

I was thinking of geting married and having a honeymoon at the same time. Is it possible to get married on a Sunday in the state of Florida - I'm a UK resident so any advice would be appreciated.Is it possible to get married in Florida on a Sunday?
Sunday is the day that most Jewish weddings occur. Since there are a lot of Jews in Florida, I'm sure it's legal.





And why would it be illegal to marry on Sunday?Is it possible to get married in Florida on a Sunday?
Hello, I am from Ireland and got married in Florida on a Saturday night on the Beach last may. What you do is go to the court house in the town where you want to get married and get a marriage licence it cost about 80 dollars I think then you must wait 3 days till you can marry, we paid a Justice of the Peace to Marry us on the beach. He just signed the licence to make it legal. We did need 2 witnesses so we just asked to people on the beach. So the licence needs to be got during office hours in the court house but the marriage to make it legal can be done anytime any day wherever you want.

What do you give as a gift to an older couple getting married?

My Dad is 58. He is going to marry someone a little older than him that is a widow. She has a home and just about everything else you can imagine. What do you give to a couple like this?What do you give as a gift to an older couple getting married?
A romantic getaway, spa certificate, bed and breakfast certificate, restaurant gift card, hot air balloon trip certificate, show tickets, theater tickets, ballroom dancing classes.... you get the idea. They don't need gifts or cash, they need romantic memories.





Good luckWhat do you give as a gift to an older couple getting married?
Tickets to a Broadway show or dinner gift card or gift card for a couples massage from your local spa you can pay for a weekend get away of there choice there is a lot you can get them. You can even make up a gift basket full of fun stuff for couples bubble bath some new robes/slippers massage oils maybe put in there a movie you know they would like some champagne glasses and a bottle of champagne or wine. You could even include in the basket a photo album that they could start adding pictures to after starting there new life.Best of Luck deciding
Cash is ok but as the son it's not personelle enough? Can you afford to pay the hotel suite for 1 night for them. or how about masssages for 2? Sorry i wish i knew what your budget was
Give them hotel stays, vacation tickets, gift card to dinner, theater tickets etc.
As a bride to be myself, I would love it if people just get me what I have on my registry. If the couple has not yet registered, ask your dad what they may need or want. Sometimes the older couples are already settled in their lives and have no need for material items, so cash is always a good thing to give.





If your dad has no idea what is needed, approach the fiance- i am sure she would know!
Give them tickets to their favorite event, music, movies or theater. If they are not in to any of that cash is always good. Or if you know their favorite restaurants buy them some gift certificates to them.
I would think she is feeling like an outsider; she is hoping you and the rest of your family will accept her as someone who loves your dad, and not trying to take the place of your mother. Something sentimental that shows that the children are accepting her as part of the family is the way to go.





I would make a photo album, fill it with pictures of the siblings at different ages, pictures of everyone with your father and her, and in the front have all of the siblings each write a one-page note saying how you wish your father and her a happy life together, and welcoming her to the family.





I think it would hold a special place in her heart, which is more valuable than any money you can spend.
cash is good at any age
something nice





gw
Nothing. At their stage of life they have everything and know that the beauty of the company of family is better than any gift of money or goods could ever be. Just hugs and kisses will be more than a heart can contain. (gag gag)
Ask your dad where they are registered, if they are, and pick something off that list.





Ask your dad what they'd like as a gift.





Pay for a hotel night for them.





Get them a gift certificate to a fancy restaurant.
Tailor this idea to their wedding and relationship,





Here's something creative that will be appreciated and you will have fun doing:





Make up a crossword puzzle and have all the hints be personal inside moments and jokes that only you two would know about. Put it on a poster board and add some clipart and some pictures to it!





The crossword puzzle could be time consuming and a bit frustrating ... you could do the same idea with a WORDSEARCH or WORDFIND puzzle.





Put your computer skills to work! Use Excel, get clipart from Yahoo Images Search, copy them, and reformat them, use a gluestick to put on posterboard.





Use graph paper, and pictures from magazines if you are not as good on the computer, and it will give it a homemade feeling.
I would think gift certificates to a good restaurant or to the movies. Or you could fix them a basket with things they like such as a movie basket filled with a couple of dvd's, microwave popcorn, Jr Mints or their favorite candy, a couple of cans of soda.


If they enjoy gardening then a basket with garden gloves, small shovels, seed packets, wind chimes, etc.


A snack basket to take on their honeymoon might include some individual sized bags of different flavored chips, peanuts, their favorite candy bars, fruits and some bottled water.


Of course you'd want to wrap the basket up in pretty transparent paper and attach ribbons and a card.


Good luck on your ideas!!

How come any woman who married a pastor became a pastor automatically?

1corinthians 14:34-35 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law.





35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.








why are men afraid to preach those verses above ?How come any woman who married a pastor became a pastor automatically?
Paul had views that were extremely common for that time period (and womens rights really didn't change until a couple hundred years ago), but the Bible was one of the few books at the time that actually did claim women should even be allowed to have rights, and be loved by their husbands. They are to have wisdom, the ability to teach, and also be political leaders. (Proverbs 31:26; Titus 2:2, Judges 4-5) The Bible stated that women could also work, make money, and be in business. (Proverbs 31:12-14,16,19-22, 31)





(Many societies today won't even give women the same rights that the Bible has given them for thousands of years.)





Also, women and men are of equal value and worth to God. All believers, male and female, are all considered as ';Sons of God'; without distinction. (Galatians 3:26-29) Women were also made in the image of God. (Genesis 1:27)





Plenty of pastors preach this.How come any woman who married a pastor became a pastor automatically?
I didn't know that because your husband is pastor that his wife also becomes the pastor....Oh boy, this Sunday I'm gonna do the sermon!!!





Are these some of the bible verses that were used to oppress women? Seriously, I think those verses have very little significance in the greater scheme of the bible and Christianity.
The word 'pastor' is the word for elder, not preacher. Any church who uses this term for their preacher isn't readng the Bible.
They'll be sued





...probably





At the very least women will stop donating money to them.
Because those men want to continue having sex with their women.
Pastorisation is required by health regulations.
Each time you post that out of context scripture, I will mail a used tampon to your home.
COME ON! Why are you so hung up on this?!!!
Wiill you stfu with this sexist crap? You really make me sick.

Has anyone been on the married life course that you need to go to if you want a catholic church wedding?

Whats it called? Is there a website about it?Has anyone been on the married life course that you need to go to if you want a catholic church wedding?
Pre cana. Google it and you'll see several site from different diocese concerning pre cana training.





Don't be concerned, compared to being marriage pre cana was a piece of cake.Has anyone been on the married life course that you need to go to if you want a catholic church wedding?
I went through the course over 27 years ago. It was called the Pre-Cana course at that time. You should ask your parish priest for details. You can try this website for more details: http://home.earthlink.net/~rickpen16/cat鈥?/a>
The idea of a course about sex and marriage held by a ';celibate'; priest (who might even be having some ';fun'; molesting his altar boys) seems totally funny and ridiculous.





I'd love to try one!
Ask the priest who is marrying you. Or type ';Catholic Marriage Prep'; into your Google browser.





God Bless
Pre Caana, I think.

  • Do you have to be married to adopt a child?

    If you're single and have a good income, can you just adopt a kid or do you have to be married?Do you have to be married to adopt a child?
    You can adopt if you are single. There are some foreign countries that won't allow you to adopt if you are single or under a certain age but for the most part, yes, you can adopt when you're single.





    I am actually registered on the international adoption site that is run by the lady who wrote the following article:Do you have to be married to adopt a child?
    It actually depends on which country you are adopting from, but most will allow single parent adoptions (although it is harder)
    No but you must have a good, clean home and have a decent income and prove you can care for the child

    Do Jewish couples who get married under the Huppah, have another ceremony?

    That makes it legal in the country they live in. If they do what is the reason %26amp; if they don't why not?


    I am going to a Jewish Marriage next week, so got thinking about this.Do Jewish couples who get married under the Huppah, have another ceremony?
    It would probably depend on the laws of the country in which they live. I suspect that a marriage under a Chuppah would be legal in all US states provided all other laws are met. Here in our state as long as you have a valid marriage license almost anyone can perform the ceremony anywhere.








    I believe what the first answer is referring to is the Ketubah which is a ';marriage contract'; which makes the wedding valid in Judaism, not necessarily valid as far as the government is concerned. Arkansas did recognize contract marriages as valid even without a license for anyone but I am not sure if that is still the case.Do Jewish couples who get married under the Huppah, have another ceremony?
    they can if they want, but there is no need to. the reason being is that all modern law in western countries comes from the old testament which is the bible and rituals of judaism. eg. the 10 commandments.





    if translated from the hebrew at weddings you would find that the words are very similar to any christian wedding.
    actually the huppah ceremony is just for show also. the real marriage would of happened before, privately, with some papers being signed. I don't remember what its called. I had to sign the papers as a witness for my best friend when he got married.
