		<description><![CDATA[<p>They got their wonderful wedding stationery from Alice Palace, of course! Invitations for the day and evening guests, rsvps, order of the day cards, bunting and table names = creating a perfect design which set the fun and relaxed theme for the tea and cake filled day.
</p>

</p>
<p>
They chose hotdogs and chips with salads for the evening food - so their evening invites contained an important message about the lack of tea and cake!
</p>
<p>

<p>
their order of day gave their guests an idea of what to expect throughout the wedding&#8230;
</p>

their tables were named after all their pets (guinea pigs and their dog honey)!
</p>

		<title>asking for HIS hand in marriage!</title>
		<link>http://www.alicepalace.co.uk/blog/entry/asking-for-his-hand-in-marriage/</link>
		<guid>http://www.alicepalace.co.uk/blog/entry/asking-for-his-hand-in-marriage/#When:12:30:39Z</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[<p>Write out each of the seven cards with a special message (maybe 7 top reasons why you love him and want to be married to him). Create a treasure hunt, and he gets to open one of the seven cards with each clue, so by the time he gets to the end he will have his message in front of him! 
</p>
<p>
Buy the alphabet cards here :: <a href="http://alicepalace.myshopify.com/collections/alices-alphabet">http://alicepalace.myshopify.com/collections/alices-alphabet</a>
</p>
<p>
2. Send an Alice Palace card with your marriage message inside!
<br />
You could give the card to his boss at work, and get him to put it on your husband to be&#8217;s desk ready to open when he gets into work, (and maybe arrange with his boss for him to have half a day off)…………..the rest of the day can be spent together as you so wish!

<p>
Leap Year has been the traditional time that women can propose marriage.
<br />
In many of today&#8217;s cultures, it is okay for a woman to propose marriage to a man. Society doesn&#8217;t look down on such women. However, that hasn&#8217;t always been the case.
<br />
When the rules of courtship were stricter, women were only allowed to pop the question on one day every four years. That day was February 29th.

Also, thank you for your kind gesture of the mug - it was a lovely surprise!&nbsp; And will be a fond reminder of the day and working with you.&#8217; Linda and H, 24/11/11
