Dallas Wedding Trends: Tips to Get Your Wedding Ring Engraved

May 31, 2017

DFW Wedding Trends

Empire Room is back with some Dallas Wedding Trends, tips and tricks to help you achieve your perfect dream wedding!

A wedding band serves as a sweet and gentle reminder of the vows of eternal joy, love and friendship! What better way to make it even more special than by getting your wedding bands engraved  with a personal message, a special memory, maybe a significant date? Taking its roots from the age of medieval Europe, the idea is to create something unique that will remind you of your love. We at The Empire Room Dallas came up with a list of tips to help you out if you are planning on getting your wedding rings engraved for your significant other.

 

Who To Contact?

For this task you need to ask your jeweler to engrave your rings when you place your order. Ideally, your jeweler should be able to do the task. However, if for some reason he is unable to do so, he will refer you to an engraver.

Discuss every detail down to the dot with your jeweler or engraver before you send it in. Once received, check everything again. The most important ring you will ever wear in your lifetime has to be perfect and flawless in every way, just the way you imagined it.

 

Time

Again, discuss the time duration with your jeweler. Some can do it within a day while others can take up to a month. After discussing every excruciating detail, carefully map out your wedding timeline and plan accordingly.

 

Engraving Ideas

If you are unable to abridge the intensity of your emotions down to a small verse from a special poem or a song then a unique option for etching your message is around the stone.

New and creative laser technology can now inscribe graphics or an infinitesimal message. Although undetectable to the bare eye, the message will only be visible when appreciated with a magnifying glass. This inconspicuous little secret will make the sentiment shared even more intimate and special.

A diamond inscription also serves the purpose of a birthmark which ensures that the stone will never go missing or stolen.

 

Costs

This almost always depends on the number of letters in the engraving, the selected font, and whether the task was accomplished using a machine or by hand.

Machine engraving is generally more affordable while hand inscription is usually costlier because it adds a special, rustic feel. For a diamond inscription, it depends entirely on the carat weight age of the diamond.

Choose to immortalize a special memory, an iconic date, a stanza or verse from your favorite poem or song, or maybe even an inside joke, an inscription is an intimate gesture that will forever be engraved into your hearts.

With the hottest wedding in town to have taken place, couples have started rushing off in search of the wedding planners to ensure their wedding can portray the same element of elegance yet classic beauty as the recent royal wedding!

1. Plan every stage with precision

Believe it or not, a lot goes into planning a royal wedding. Every stage should be managed with key and precision.

It’s important to add a little element of entertainment to engage your guests, keeping them busy. The sort of activities depends entirely on the taste of the guest lists.

2. Fine dining at its best

An important aspect of every wedding is the food and wine. It is the element that sets the tone of the whole evening.

All couples should interact and work closely with their caterer in order to get an idea of how to set up a well balanced and sophisticated menu that is fit for a royal.

3. Floral arrangement

Flowers are the perfect way to depict royalty without having to say or do much. The rule of the royals is lots and lots of flowers.

4. Don’t forget to raise a glass

It’s all about having the best drinks when it comes to royalty and no wedding is complete without a perfect glass of champagne.

“Your drinks should be as sparkling as your glistening chandelier” is a famous quote regarding the royals.

5. The bride’s gown

There’s no denying the fact that the bride is the star of show. All eyes gleam on her glistening dress as she makes her way down the altar.

Most fashion forward brides similar to Pippa will aim to go for classic gowns with a modern twist, reflecting their individual style. Long sleeves, white lace and a slim line fit is the perfect combination to add that epitome of grace.

6. Add a breathtaking backdrop

Choosing the perfect venue can make your event go from ordinary to unforgettable. This is very true when it comes to choosing the right backdrop for your wedding.

Aim for a view to get that element of a regal wedding on point. You’ll thank yourself after seeing how great your pictures come out.

Wedding Knowledge: Do Couples Tend to Look Alike?

May 7, 2017

The Empire Room - Dallas Texas wedding venue

Ever looked at a couple and wondered if it’s just you or do they look alike? Well, it is not just you. Couples, as odd as it sounds, tend to look alike.

Science now supports this theory by stating that the longer you are with your partner, the more you tend to resemble them. Science refers to this seemingly impossible and unrealistic phenomenon as the convergence of appearance.

 Wedding Knowledge from the Empire Room

The chances of ending up with someone who shares the same traits as you are high;  regardless of the fact that you two looked nothing like to begin with.

The dating world involves much more than visual appeal or chemical spark. In fact, we tend to gravitate towards people who are indeed like us in more than one way be it age, education, height, etc.

This explains why an educated person will most likely end up with another educated individual most probably from the same field of study. Similarity, however, also bases itself on genetics, including facial features and structure.

A 1987 study at the University of Michigan on facial likeness revealed that sharing life experiences leads to similar lines on faces. There is a subtle shift in facial contours and wrinkles with the progression of time.

Another deduction made involved the physiological phenomenon of aging. With age, distinct features happen to fade away. Thus, the longer a couple stays together, the greater the chances that they will look alike.

A popular theory known as emotional face-mirroring, states that we imitate the people we spend the most time with. This is referred to as unconscious mirroring and it allows us to feel a stronger emotional bond and feel one with the group. Evidence reveals that genetic similarity contributes heavily to a happy marriage.

So tell us, are you and your soon to be spouse already starting to blend together?
