When it comes to marriage ceremonies, the greatest decision in planning the entire party is agreeing on the final location. The location says a lot about a couple and their creativity. After all, it is the place that they choose to invite their friends and family to feel comfortable, romantic, and joyous about their union. It is a reflection of their personalities and what they value in that moment of their lives. In four words, location says it all. Even though the marrying couple and the wedding party may not agree on the same type of wedding venues as other couples, what they select should reflect their style. Many want to find some place that is going to be unique, interesting, and, most importantly, show the type of person they are. There are several places that can help a couple accomplish the task of finding an extraordinary location.

For the more cultured and intellectual couple, libraries and museums are a great alternative to the hotel ballroom. These spaces have recently been growing in popularity. Many of these buildings are historic sites; the architecture and floor plans include rotundas, stained glass, and artwork that are like no other. The old-time building style only adds to the ambiance of the ceremony. Inside, the artifacts, books, and other wonders set a backdrop for the ceremony that could not be captured anywhere else. However, it is very important to contact these locations well in advance, as the owners may need to close certain exhibits or sections in order to accommodate the guests.

Avid outdoorsmen can choose parks, beaches, and national sites that offer many unique circumstances that a traditional setting cannot. The sun setting behind a mountain, wind whispering through the trees, or waves crashing on the shore can leave guests with feelings of wonder and beauty. This frees up time spent hunting for decorations and allows time and money to be utilized elsewhere in the planning of the vows and activities. Planning these events can be fun and exciting. When doing so, do not forget to check with the city parks department to see if any permits need to be obtained. Other amenities such as restrooms will also need to be provided for guests.

History buffs also have a few options to consider. Historic homes and landmarks can offer the best of indoor and outdoor locations. Guests are usually allowed to wander through the rooms and on the grounds during the reception. This allows these wedding venues to satisfy many different types of guests. If you are planning to have a ceremony or reception in this type of location, it is necessary to check the sizes of the rooms in the home. It may be necessary to have the ceremony in adjoining rooms if there is not one large enough to seat all the guests at once.

Deciding wedding venues can be an exciting time in a couple's planning and ceremony process. It is the perfect time to let their personalities shine through the preparation to the final event. An interesting location provides an experience that guests will remember long into the future. Location is everything, and it is not a decision that should be made lightly. All aspects of the wedding must be thought about when deciding where it should take place. However, whatever the choice, any of these locations are sure to please the couple and their guests.

" IS IT REALLY TRUE THAT MOST ARTISTS ARE FLAKES - YES, BUT LET ME EXPLAIN "

The other day, I was meeting a small group of artists at a local coffee shop, as we were in the beginning phases of planning some local art fairs. Unfortunately, the leaders of this group never showed up. That's unfortunate making me wonder if I should even waste my time. Still, with the number of flakes in the world - and as it gets worse probably due to social networking - what is someone to do? If the individuals engaged in the planning are not getting paid upfront and may not ever make any money for all their hard work in the planning process - why bother?

Sure, that is a relevant dilemma. Still, if someone volunteers their efforts and goodwill towards a common worthy cause, but that reneges on their commitment and then that does show a challenged character in my view. Now then, I am sure that many people have excuses, other things to do, and set their priorities in a certain way. If a particular art fair in this case isn't for several months into the future, then why all the preplanning, what difference does it make, after all, many of these things are done the last minute.

Okay so, we all know that's true, but we also know that things done at the last minute are never as good as they could have been. Think about how many events you've gone to that have been less than organized and somewhat chaotic. Now then, perhaps this is a common issue with those who have a bipolar mind, or are a little bit ADHD to start with, that's why they are artists rather than working in a corporation, they think differently. That's all well and good, but it is difficult for those sorts of folks to organize things properly if they don't make good on their commitments.

Does that mean that artists are flakes; perhaps, and perhaps not. Perhaps they want to please everyone, so they just nod their head yes, and agree to do something that later on they will change their mind, or rearrange their priorities, or forget about their commitment altogether. In other words perhaps they are scatterbrained, afraid of confrontation, or they really do lack character.

Based on what I've learned and observed in my experience over the years, I wouldn't say that all artists are flakes, but a good many of them will appear to be flaky to the rest of the population which operates by a different set of standards. Remember, artists live life on their own terms. I hope this experience helps you in case you get caught up in the same circumstances in the future. Please consider all this and think on it.
