Being the Perfect Wedding Guest

Because I got married a year and a half ago, it is still fresh on my mind. For those of you who are married, I’m sure you dealt with the same issue: people asking if they can bring someone or change a part of things that you have clearly stated. It really was a point of stress for us both. I will say however, that some are not aware of what the invitation is stating by looking at who it is addressed to.

 

This is what Emily Post writes:

 

Do not ask your host or hostess if you can bring a date or your children. The invitation will be addressed to the people invited. If you may bring a guest, your invitation will read "Mr. John Phelps and guest." If your children are invited, they will either receive their own personal invitations or their names will be listed under yours on the envelope. This is not the time to question your host's decision, to argue or beg for an exception. And, please, do not add their names to a reply card or show up with them anyway!

 

I say this to save any future brides and grooms out there the stress of having to also deal with this. They did not forget that you’re dating someone for a month. They didn’t forget that you have a 16-year old. They did it for a reason and that reason is usually a budget on the number of people they can afford to feed at the reception. Keep them in mind next time you RSVP for a wedding. J

Even minor bacterial infections can lead to redness, soreness, and in some cases, a discharge that may exude a foul odor.Fungal Infections- The rash and irritation on the common fungal infection known as jock itch is familiar to most men. Like bacteria, the fungus that causes jock itch is known to proliferate this particular warm, moist region for this sizegenetics, and without proper sizegenetics care, severe itching, redness and irritation can result.Heat Rash- Warm weather, in combination with restrictive clothing, can cause sweating and chafing, leading onto the condition known as heat rash.
