The women hadn’t the slightest clue that the amount they had paid for two flutes’ worth of the bubbly golden liquid represented a nearly 50% markup of its actual price-by-volume, simply because neither of them knew anything at all about prosecco—they just liked the way drinking it made them feel. That is, it made them feel sophisticated and important. And both of the women would pay just about anything (without question) to feel that way but for a moment. Plus, they had both agreed, the occasion truly warranted it. Another beautiful wedding to attend, now officially on the books… “I wanted a destination wedding in Tulum,” Chelsea said. “Johnny wanted one in Transylvania, where his family is originally from, but to me that sounded like a nightmare. So we decided on Jersey where his brother Vlad lives instead.” Chelsea was the editor-in-chief of a well-known marital publication. It was simply titled L’ Mariage and was considered New York City's most prestigious of the half-dozen or so wedding magazines that had set up shop there over the years.

There is an emergence – the beauty of nature draws people away from the fireside to wander the villages and forest tracks.

  • The Modern Bride's Guide to Wedding Planning
    Get Savvy THE MODERN BRIDE'S GUIDE TO WEDDING PLANNING Hello, Lovely! Congratulations on your engagement! I couldn’t be happier for you. I believe that planning your wedding should be fun and stress-free whether your budget is $5,000 or $50,000! When I was planning my own wedding in 2015, one thought kept repeating itself over and over again- “If I didn’t have almost 20 years of experience as a professional party planner, how on earth would I plan the wedding of our dreams on this budget?!?” You probably already know that the cost of weddings in the U.S. are sky high. According to Brides, the average in 2018 was over $44k. If you’re anything like me, that figure is bonkers! Even if we had access to that kind of disposable income, we would have never spent it on our wedding. It would have gone toward a down payment on a house, paying off student loans, traveling, or even basic living expenses. My hubby and I love to throw a party, but life comes first! Ladies, I’ve been there. Wedding planning can be stressful and overwhelming. A HUGE part of my mission for creating Savvy Weddings was to break the mold and help women feel good about themselves and about the wedding planning process. I want ALL brides to be empowered to plan every element of their wedding with grace, ease and most importantly JOY! Get Savvy: The Modern Bride’s Guide to Wedding Planning is chock full of insider info for budget, logistics, and design.

  • The Expression of Sacred Space in Temple Mythology
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Unisa Institutional Repository EXPRESSONS OF SACRED SPACE: TEMPLE ARCHITECTURE IN THE ANCIENT NEAR EAST by Martin J Palmer submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Literature and Philosophy in the subject Ancient Near Eastern Studies at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA Promoter: Prof. P S Vermaak February 2012 ii ABSTRACT The objective of this thesis is to identify, isolate, and expound the concepts of sacred space and its ancillary doctrines and to show how they were expressed in ancient temple architecture and ritual. The fundamental concept of sacred space defined the nature of the holiness that pervaded the temple. The idea of sacred space included the ancient view of the temple as a mountain. Other subsets of the basic notion of sacred space include the role of the creation story in temple ritual, its status as an image of a heavenly temple and its location on the axis mundi, the temple as the site of the hieros gamos, the substantial role of the temple regarding kingship and coronation rites, the temple as a symbol of the Tree of Life, and the role played by water as a symbol of physical and spiritual blessings streaming forth from the temple. Temple ritual, architecture, and construction techniques expressed these concepts in various ways. These expressions, identified in the literary and archaeological records, were surprisingly consistent throughout the ancient Near East across large expanses of space and time. Under the general heading of Techniques of Construction and Decoration, this thesis examines the concept of the primordial mound and its application in temple architecture, the practice of foundation deposits, the purposes and functions of enclosure walls, principles of orientation, alignment, and measurement, and interior decorations.
