KNEZ SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY • NUMBER 39 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Folklife Studies Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.

( Source) Weddings did not become elaborate events until the 1820s and 30s. ( Source ) Weddings in the 19th century often took place on weekdays between 10 a.m. and noon, followed with a breakfast reception.

  • Wedding and Event Planning Services Your Trusted Partner in Much Awaited Celebrations
    Wedding and Event Planning Services Your Trusted Partner In Much Awaited Celebrations Introduction We Make Sure Your Day Goes Off Without a Hitch. Your wedding day. The statement “I do” intertwines the lives of two different people from two different families. The love of a bride and groom connects and manifests the eternal promise for each other. This pledge of devotion will be one of the most important days of your life. Imagine yourself going down the aisle wearing the dress of your dreams to meet your prince charming. Love is in the air. And then it hits you. How would all of it be possible without the vendors and wedding planner? Who is going to plan and conceptualize everything from the venues to what people will eat? Who will make sure we stay on budget? What is the right theme and color scheme that appropriately matches us as couple and the location of the wedding? These are only a few of the numerous concerns you will have. You may think “We need to save as much money as possible, forget the planner! Wedding planning will be a breeze.” However, the truth of the matter is that the wedding planner or coordinator is NOT an expense you should remove from your budget. They are a “major” vendor. A wedding is a once in a lifetime event worth spending for. And a dream that is not carefully planned can quickly turns into a disaster. A wedding planner will make sure that your dreams do come true and that your event goes off without a hitch.
