Getting married on Valentine’s Day can be one of the most romantic decisions you ever make. Nothing is more exciting than choosing the day for lovers to get married. Of course, once the date has been chosen there is still plenty of work to be done. You will need to plan the wedding to make sure that the beauty of the ceremony lives up to the day you have chosen to take your relationship to the next step.
The following ideas range from traditional to unique and will be sure to please most couples choosing to wed on this special day.
Las Vegas/Elope
Planning a wedding can be extremely stressful. For this reason, there will be some people who would rather be whisked away to another location, be it Las Vegas, or a tropical destination, where they can get married on their own. If you do this you can begin your Honeymoon immediately and once you return home you can have a reception for your friends and family. If you are hoping to have a private ceremony this is a good way to do it. Additionally, if you are hoping to create some wild wedding memories, there is no better place to go than to Las Vegas.
Of course, you should be respectful to family if this is the option you are going to take. A reception, either before or after the wedding, should definitely be held. You might want to consider allowing some close family and friends to come along on your trip. Send out your reception invites before you leave and let everyone in on your decision. This ensures that there are no hurt feelings when you head off to begin a new phase in your life. Chances are most of your family and friends will be happy for you and they will be thrilled that you let them in on your little secret.
Renaissance/Period
Nearly every person identifies with a particular period in history. Whether you prefer the long flowing gowns and Victorian feel of the Renaissance or the simplicity of the Ancient periods is up to you. Of course, you may feel more comfortable with the roaring 20′s, the disco age of the 70′s, or the Woodstock era.
Once you’ve chosen a period that speaks to you the rest will be as simple as planning a traditional wedding. Luckily, you can find specialty wedding shops that can create dresses from nearly any time period in history. Additionally, if you have a picture of a dress you like many shops can duplicate or create a similar style in a fashion all your own.
With a little homework you can fill the area with flowers and colors reminiscent of the time period you have picked. You can also pick out foods and other wedding necessities to further enhance the feel of the time period you have chosen for your special day.
Nature
If you are opting to have a wedding that is simple in nature and focuses on the beauty that is all around you, then you might want to consider having an outdoor wedding. A few good options for this would be a wedding in the clearing of a wooded area, at the beach, or at the mountains. All of these possibilities or others would be beautiful. In most locations like this you can set up chairs and a wedding area for the gathering of your guests. Later your might choose to join together in a building or have your reception set up under tents where you can enjoy the safety allowances the tent provides but still be able to enjoy the natural setting around you.
There are many other great wedding options. There have been people married in submarines or in planes. People have gotten married as they were skydiving or on mountain tops. For the best wedding you can have you should find the one thing you love doing with your partner the most and attempt to get married in that setting. In the end, there will be no finer way to get married then by doing what you love when you say, I do.

How do I get my ex back? This isn’t just because it’s valentines day! Please help with serious advice…
I am pretty young and so is my ex husband. We got married way too young and had this completly idealistic view that marriage would be easy, like you see in a romance movie and you just live happily ever after. Well we had it hard to start with. He didn’t have a job for the first three months we were married so I had to pay the bills on my 10 an hr job. So there was a lot of stress and resentment. We tried to make it work but we didn’t know how to communicate with eachother so there was a lot of bad fighting. We got divorced about a year ago after a year and a half of marriage. I have still be talking to him on a consistant basis and there isn’t a week that goes by that he doesn’t call me. He is dating this girl that he was with before me and he just told me that he isn’t as happy with her. I feel that we both communicate a lot better now and could really make it work but I don’t want to seem silly. Is it a possibility to get him back or should I just move on?
Have you asked him how he felt about this???

Truthfully, if he wanted to make it work with you he wouldn’t be with the other woman. He would come back to you and try and make it work. Don’t keep kidding yourself…sorry but that is the cold hard reality of the situation. He could easily leave the other woman…he is stringing you along.

Only you can really make that decision depending on how much you love him. However, you already know that when the going gets tough, he got going. Just make sure that you protect yourself before getting involved with him again, and that he has a job, and helps with everything.

I guess if you want to try again, you could just tell him that. If you two communicate a lot it should not be a problem. I would take it very slowly and cautiously. Did he volunteer that he is not happy with current date? If so I think it was a hint he wants to give it another try. If you asked him, I am not sure how to take his answer.
I have not ever had any success with a get back to gether situation, but thats just me.

There is always the possibility of reconciling if both parties want it bad enough. However, I would not jump right into it again. Let him know how you feel. If he feel the same way, then he needs to end things with his current girl… After that then you can begin seeing each other. But you would have to take it slow first.. Get to now another again.

Everything sounds nice now, but i would not want to get back with him right about now, You said you both were very young when you first got married and i am sure he probably was your first boyfriend.
I would continue with the good friendship you and your ex are having now. see what other people are like before making that decision, be open minded to dating other people, you have gotten another chance to do so, take advantage of it, and if after you have dated other people, and get a chance to experience different personalities, if you feel the same way towards your ex, and your ex feel the same way about you, then go right ahead and get back together,

I was once where you were. I would recommend working on you and establishing yourself as an individual, so that the next person to come into your life, whether it is someone new or the ex, will be an extension to what you have going on (the icing on the cake) and not a lifeline. Communication is a huge factor that makes a big difference, but developing true friendship and ensuring that your life long goals aligns with those of your partner, is tantamount to success. If you guys are meant to be back together, the opportunity will still be there when the time is right and like others said, it has to be because you both want it. My ex is now my husband again and, well, it is what it is……………..

Listen to me… I am a guy that is divorced. I read most of the responses from everyone. You need to take them all and all them up. Everything everyone said is true.
1) Have you spoken to him about it?
2) What has changed in his life to make you think this going to work during round two?
3) Do you think if the stuff hits the fan again will he step up to the plate?
4) How do you really feel it will work the second time around?
