In recent years, "theme" weddings have become a great way to express the personalities of the bride and groom.We see all kinds of them. weddings at sea, costume weddings of every stripe, and candlelit night weddings in the dead of winter.I like to think of myself as a pretty independent, outside-the-box kind of person, but let's face it; when I imagine the perfect wedding for myself, at least it's outdoors on a beautiful spring morning.I don't think I'm alone in allowing myself a little bit of old-fashioned sentimentality, and this article is for those of you who feel the same way.Whether your wedding is very traditional or decidedly unique, the ever-popular outdoor spring wedding is a natural choice.A beautiful garden in May could feature the bride in white and the groom in a nice tuxedo, or both in Victorian attire, or in Lord of the Rings elf costumes.The sunny, flowery atmosphere gives cheer and joy to any such happy gathering, and guests will always feel comfortable.The spring wedding favors you choose will reflect your personal wedding theme.Traditional garden wedding favors could come in elegant silk pouches, festive flower-embroidered bags, or egg baskets appropriate to the Easter holiday.More unusually, spring wedding favors could come in coconuts, flying saucer pods, sea shell boxes, or .As for the favors themselves, this is where you can really get creative.Garden wedding favors can feature anything from candles to lip balm to chocolate to tea-bags; picture frames, soap bars, shot glasses, bells, or flower seeds for planting; the possible lists are endless.The important thing in choosing garden wedding favors is to think about what you would like your guests to literally take away from your happy event.Perhaps imagine what you yourself would want to bring home.A safe choice like chocolate could make almost everyone happy, or something unique to your theme would really help them remember the day.A mixture of both would be a good plan for more "unique" wedding themes; if you're getting married on an airplane, you might choose a flight-themed gift as well as something delicious.Other spring wedding favors might focus on the particular people involved, such as miniature space shuttles for a wedding of astronauts, or pens if the bride or groom is a writer.While creativity is encouraged, there are some items that should be avoided, depending on the guest list.If the wedding is a personal affair with the close friends and family of the betrothed, these issues might not be a problem; but in a large marriage ceremony with various acquaintances and diverse friends and family, it is best to avoid items that invoke politics or controversial personal preferences, and it may be preferable to avoid an overabundance of religious items.Of course, the circumstances of the wedding should be taken into account, and the religious nature of the ceremony is especially to be determined by the people involved.In general, hosts will want to keep spring wedding favors in the realm of the friendly and light-hearted; humor is often a welcome touch, but those with a dark or political sense of humor will want to take the varying tastes of their guests into account.Clearly, for those interested in the joyful tradition of a spring garden wedding, there is no shortage of ideas for garden wedding favors from the whimsical to the tasty to the useful.A variety of well-chosen spring wedding favors or garden wedding favors for your guests will surely do a great deal to please beloved friends and family.

Why would anyone consider dressing like a goat of all things? Well, let's step back.Costumes are very popular and have been since well before the Middle Ages.These days, dressing in a costume is mandatory for many for Halloween, and some other holidays as well.Christmas is big with Santa and Mrs Claus and Elf and Grinch Costumes and more, Easter is another popular time for dressing up, and even the 4th of July this year I saw a lot of themed costumes.Even non holidays will often have costume parties and other events suitable for dressing up as someone or something that is not you.You could simply dress as one of the classics. a superhero, a themed holiday costume, or a famous figure like Einstein or Abraham Lincoln.Equally popular is dressing like a famous contemporary person or figure, maybe Mick Jagger or a character from the latest hit movie or TV show.These are all good choices, so why something as different as a goat?When you pick a popular costume idea like Santa Claus for Christmas or the Easter Bunny for Easter or Lady Gaga, you are not being very creative, although your costume may be.There will no doubt be other Santas around or Witches or Pirates etc.By picking something more individualistic you will be more unique, and it's less likely someone will be dressed as you.So why do I often choose dressing as goat? Goats run deep in our psyche.What child does not know the story of The Three Billy Goats Gruff for example? And much further back, Pan, the mythical half goat and half man god of shepherds, their flocks, and their mountain environments was quite a fun guy.He is often associated with parties as well as being one sexy guy with an enormous sexual appetite.Goats are also instantly recognizable.Goats are intelligent and curious animals and very popular with children.They are becoming more and more common as pets as they are similar to dogs, but have a natural curiosity such as cats do, are loyal, although perhaps stubborn at times,.There are also so many choices when you dress as a goat.Now you'll probably be the only goat at the party, but even if there is a farmyard goat, one of the three Billy Goats Gruff, and yet another person dressed as Pan, so what? It's not like you are one of 5 Santa Clauses.
