3 AnswersComputer Networking1 decade agoTraditional Wedding or wedding in the Caribbeans?
I would like opinion from people who have huge families and/or people who are Portuguese, Italian, Greek.
I live in Toronto Canada, I don't have a big family but my girlfriend does. As we know right now money is extremely tight. I did a bit of research and found out the a very basic portuguese wedding will cost roughly $25,000 to $30,000 if not more.
Here are a few facts for a typical portuguese wedding:
1) Church, Reception Hall, Food, Seafood buffet at the end of the night, DJ, Flowers, etc.
2) Groom's guests = roughly 30 people
3) Bride guests = over 150 maybe more
Option 1: Do the typical wedding, invite all the guests and become yourself and/or parents in debt. Pro: Everyone will be happy. Con: bride, groom and/or parents in huge debt.
Option 2: Plan an Caribbean wedding and only invite very close family and friends. Save your money for a down payment for a home. Pro: No debt. Con: Family on both sides will be upset.
In your opinion which option would you do and why?
10 AnswersEngagements & Weddings1 decade agoLooking for store with decent prices for engagement rings in Toronto/Mississuga?
I plan on proposing to my gf on christmas day. I wanna start doing my research for an engagement ring. I have asked my gf what she likes. The only two requirements she wants is that it had to be a diamond and the band has to be white. She trust my judgement on the ring. I am old fashioned so I will pick out the ring.
The ring requirements:
Diamond of course (gf told me she likes diamond)
I narrowed it down to either princess cut or rounded cut (dunno the name of it).
The band will be white gold (gf doesn't like yellow)
Maximum limit on the ring's final price including taxes will be $1500.
Besides Spence Diamonds, what are some of the other places in Toronto that have reasonable prices. I want to actually physically go into a store and look at the rings. I will only use online sites as a reference.

1 AnswerSoftware1 decade agoEngagement ring research.?
So I have been thinking about proposing to my gf at around Christmas time (2009). She has mentioned in the past that when I propose to her, she will say "yes" (yeah for me). We will both be done school in october 2009 and by christmas time I believe we will both be ready to to take our relationship to the next level.
Today at the coffee shop near our college, she told me she had a dream of me proposing. I asked her how I did it and what does the ring look like (me trying to get information [im evil]). She only dream of me proposing but not how I did it or even what the ring looks like. So we talk in hypothetical as we normally do.
I get into the topic of what she like in a ring. She told me that she like a traditional diamond, white gold band. The diamond has to be small but not too small.
On my break I started to look at spence diamond website. Reason is because I live in Toronto, Canada. Here are 3 rings that I think she will like. Now I do know that the store will have more selection. I would just like your opinion of these.
Solitaire Classic (diamond center with 2 hearts)
http://www.spencediamonds.com/ring-style-0440
I like this one because its unique.
Solitaire Modern (diamond center)
http://www.spencediamonds.com/ring-style-1714
I like this one because its simple.
Muli-stone classic (diamond center with 2 tiny diamonds)
http://www.spencediamonds.com/ring-style-2880
I like this one also because its simple too.
15 AnswersEngagements & Weddings1 decade agoWhen to research or when to actually buy engagement ring?
I have been dating my gf for 1 1/2 yrs. I'm current in school and will finish at the end of september 2009. I'm thinking of proposing to my gf at around christmas or new year time. I also have to ask her dad permission to marry my gf.
When should I start doing my research for engagement rings?
When is the latest I can buy the ring.
I already have a price limit for the ring and have an educated guess on her ring size. So no comments regarding 4 month salary for the ring.
Any guys that are already engaged, your opinion would be really helpful.

16 AnswersEngagements & Weddings1 decade agoStop giving away hints on proposing?
First let me say that me and my gf have been dating for 1 1/2 yrs. I love her with all my heart. When we talk about marriage and stuff, we talk in hypothetical way.
Recently I have come to realize that she is the one for me. We are both in school and will both finish college in september. I believe that after I finish school, I will be ready to be engaged.
Here is the problem. Last night, we were watching TV and a scene of a bride and groom stuffing each others face with the wedding cake. I normally make a comment using "IF". But this time I made a comment "Please don't do that to me." (referring to the scene on tv.) She caught me right there, I immediately said "IF".
Later on I asked her if she was scared/shocked on the comment earlier, she said no.
I would like some tips to avoid making mistakes. I would like to be a surprise.
Both women and men advises are welcome. I would prefer the men's point of view.
12 AnswersEngagements & Weddings1 decade agoJohnny Depp gf returns engagement right for better?
I read this on the newspaper.
Johnny Depp’s long term relationship partner has returned the engagement ring he bought for her because she didn’t like the design. A source close to the couple said: "Johnny got Vanessa a drop-dead gorgeous engagement band but she returned it to the jeweller. She wants her ring to be absolutely perfect."
My 2 questions:
1) Do women actually do this?
2) Which guy is dumb enough to actually return a ring and get a new one?

10 AnswersEngagements & Weddings1 decade agoWhy do people use their b-day info to predict when they marry?
I don't understand the point for putting up your name, date of birth, where you were born. How does that information determine how and when you get married?
I understand that different cultures have different beliefs on marriage.
What I don't understand is how information on when and were you were born affects when you get married?
I thought that you have to meet someone, fall in love, find out if the both of you are the one, then get married.

4 AnswersOther - Hardware1 decade agoCan I find an engagement ring for $2000 including Tax in Toronto?
have been dating my girlfriend for a year and 5 months. We love each other alot. She is everything I want in a mate. We are currently in college. Im finishing college in september 2009 and she finished October 2009. If everything goes well, I would like to propose to her on January 1st 2010.
We have talked about rings. In her future career, she will not be able to wear huge rings. So a huge engagement ring with a huge diamond wouldn't work. So I was thinking that a simple small engagement ring with a small diamond would work.
An yes she is ok with the size and shape of it. So I would like to know if there is a ring that style for under $2000 in Toronto. If so where?
