Happy marriage relationship

No special thing or happiness can beat the feeling of finding someone you think is just perfect for you. It gives you immense happiness and excitement to think that you are going to spend rest of your life with the one you think is just right for you. It is a human attribute to have the constant desire to get loved by someone all the time. We are always looking for people with whom we can build a strong relationship for lifetime and the relationship of a husband and wife is one of the most important and strongest relationships. But, a lot of people wonder and not sure about how they will be able to find someone they love or how they would be able to identify that special someone. In such confusion you make hasty decision for which you regret later. There is a kind of insecurity among people that exists within a lot of relationships. Is the relationship in which you are right now is the one that you desire for? Could you do anything to make it better? Are you really happy with your present relationship status? Are you giving your 100% to make your relationship work better? These are some questions which came in our mind or our friends ask when we are in a relationship.

Getting into a long-term relationship like marriage is a big deal and requires a lot of efforts, understanding, sacrifices, commitments and emotional involvement. I have seen many couples fighting and playing the blame game with their partner to prove that they are right. This is not the right approach to make your relationship work. I am sure that if you are married you must have also gone through the thick and thin of being in a relationship and you must have tried things to make it work. To put the mind of some people at ease and to give them a simple doze to boost their relationship and enjoy it, here I am discussing a few things that have the potential to make it forever for you.

  1. You and your partner respect each-other’s differences. You and your partner have a mutual understanding for each-other. You always mind your words before saying anything because you never want to hurt the other one emotionally.
  2. You don’t need to tell and share everything to your partner, as you have mastered the art of emotional understanding. You always came to know what is going on in his/her mind just looking at your partner. A simple look is enough to understand the feelings.
  3. You are not afraid of talking and discussing your future. You make future plans where he/she is there. You can’t imagine a single thing or plan without your partner in the future. Your all plans are incomplete without his/her presence.
  4. You feel comfortable with your partner. You need not to pretend anything in front of your partner. You don’t need to put a mask on your face or pretend anything in front of your partner. You just behave the way you are without any hesitation.
  5. This is the relationship for which you don’t mind to fight for. You always want to stand for your relationship and ready to face anything and everything to save and protect your relationship. This is something really precious to you which you can’t afford to lose.
  6. You push each other to become and do better things in life. You are a kind of person, who is always working on thing to make your relationship better. You inspire and push each other to pursue the dreams and aspirations.

Wedding Card? Really Worth To Invest?

Wedding Invitation Cards- LoveVivah

Last week, when I entered home my mother told me about a wedding card and I was happy to hear this because this is the first marriage card of the season and I was really excited to see who is getting married. I asked my mom, ‘who is getting married?’ She replied that one of my distant cousins is getting married next week. I asked for the card to check the date and venue. I looked for the card in the room and asked mom where she kept that card she told me it was right there on the table.

It was a huge colorful box with proper lock and images. I was really surprised to see this new pattern of wedding card as it was really different and royal card, beyond my expectations and imagination. The card was designed very beautifully and fixed inside a big box with sound effect of ‘Shenai’. It was two-fold box similar to the vanity box, as my sister has already booked the box to keep her jewelry in it. The first fold or layer of the card box was a full of nice design, art work with a caricature of the would-be-bride and groom. The second fold consists the venue, a road map of the location. Even the map was not the simple one, rather full of landmarks and spots indicating with images they both have visited or might not have visited, but marked in a way with their images enjoying food, playing ball game and driving on highway. Even the box was not empty, it was filled with American dark chocolates and chocolate dry fruit. It was really creative and hats off to their ultimate choice of box.

I got more curious to know how much they have invested in such lavish card, as they must have ordered more than 300 pieces and the amount must not be in thousands, but surely in lakhs. I checked online and shocked to know the cost of the card was approximately Rs. 2500 and the total cost would have been for 300 cards was Rs. 7.5 lakhs. It is an eye and mind delight to watch such kind of lavish cards, still I am not very convinced with spending huge amount in wedding cards where people will forget about it after next 15 days. Is it really worth to invest huge money on cards to show off? My answer is ‘NO’, rather you can invest the same money on more constructive things rather than a card of worth Rs. 1000 or Rs. 2000. Here, I want to suggest you some simple ideas to go for some really nice cards, but within your budget.

  1. Buy a card from wholesale market, rather than looking for a vendor in your area.
  2. Go for a card that is creative, yet pocket friendly. A wedding card worth Rs. 50-100 is more than enough to invest.
  3. Even you can go for some personal invitation with simple one leaf card not more than Rs. 50 is good to go.
  4. Make a call to relatives, send messages or make your group to send online invitation.
  5. Get your wedding card created as online mailer as many companies do for their promotional activities and send it to your relatives by investing minimum amount of Rs. 1K to Rs. 2K only.
  6. Go for a mobile app or online card. It will save more money and will be handy. You need not to visit people’s home to deliver card. You can send them online invitation with minimum investment.
