As tradition states that the party who is hosting the wedding should do the inviting on a wedding invitation. Traditionally, this would be the bride's parents. However, what happens if the groom's parents are hosting or if the bride does not have parents. There are two ways to remedy this wording problem. If the groom's parents are hosting the wedding, then you can use wording similar to this:

Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth McDonald

request the honor of your presence

at the marriage of

Miss Elise Brennan

to their son

Jason Harold McDonald

Another way is to word the invitation so that the couple is hosting their own wedding. See the example below.

The honour of your presence

is requested

at the marriage of

Ms. Valerie Atwood

and

Mr. John Thomas

Some couples also struggle with invitation wording when they want to let their guests know that children are not allowed. Many times, couples will have printed, "Adults Only," or "Adults Only Reception." According to etiquette, this is not correct. If you do not want children, simply do not invite them. Another option is to have a family member or close friend spread the word.

What if you want to provide registry information to your guests? It is not traditionally acceptable to provide gift registry information on your wedding invitation. However, more and more couples are turning to the internet and establishing their own wedding webpage. The Knot (www.theknot.com) allows you to create your own webpage, at no cost. Your wedding website can include information about how you met your fiancé, the proposal, the wedding party and even your gift registry. Travel and accommodation information can also be included on your wedding webpage, along with local attractions. More and more couples are using their wedding webpage so that their guests can obtain registry information and much more.

Situations may seem difficult when trying to explain them formally, on a wedding invitation. The best advice to remember is to say on your wedding invitations what you are comfortable with, and use etiquette to guide you along. If you say what is best for you and your fiancé on your wedding invitations, you can't go wrong!

You Can’t Afford To Use This In Your Home Based Franchise. If You Do You Will Fail…I Guarantee It

Do you know that the word can’t is the most frequently used word out of an unsuccessful home based franchise entrepreneur’s mouth?  I challenge you take a look that this unfortunate word and really think about how many times you might use it in one day.

The word can’t is a word that I detest, is the worst of the four letter words and I do not tolerate it’s usage in my house or in my home based franchise.  Most people use it far too often, very casually and most importantly...they use it inaccurately.

Truly, think about when you use can’t.  My daughter, who is now 10, knows better to not use the word in my presence.  I am a firm believer that there is nothing that she cannot do when she puts her mind to it.  She has proved this to me time and time again. 

Two years ago she almost didn’t try out for her travel soccer team because she didn’t think that she would make it.  Today she is the leading scorer on her team and more importantly she is a team leader.

I constantly hear people complain that they can’t lose weight, yet I see them eat fried food and order dessert at every chance they get.  It’s that they choose not to make the life changes that are often needed to lose the weight.  They choose not to exercise on a regular basis; they choose to order entrées with delicious French sauces vs. the broiled fish seasoned with herbs.  Losing weight and life is about choices...please don’t mistake the choices made with the word can’t.

Let’s bring the word can’t into the context of your home based franchise.  Again, I hear almost on a daily basis that people can’t seem to get leads, can’t seem to get prospects and thus can’t seem to get sales into their home based franchise. 

As I ask them questions about their marketing, I more often than not find out that there is little to no marketing activity that it taking place.  How in the world can anyone say that they can’t be successful when they haven’t done the needed activity, the needed education, the needed training, and the needed action to be successful?

People that use can’t in their vocabulary have every excuse under the sun as to why they cannot achieve the success that they want to achieve.  One of the best and most frequent excuses that I hear is that they can’t afford it, whatever it is. 

People tell me that they can’t go to training because they can’t afford it.  People tell me that they can’t buy a course that they really would like because they can’t afford it.  People tell me that they would love to join me in my home based franchise opportunity…but they just can’t afford it.  Does any of this sound familiar?

The great Jim Rohn quotes:  ‘Rich people have big libraries.  Poor people have big TV’s.’   I personally have purchased courses, books and educational products when I have been flat broke.  I did what I needed to do to become the success that I now am. Like Jim Rohn and all of the great successes out there; can’t doesn’t enter into the conversation when it comes to achieving the goals and the success that you want.

Do me a favor.  The next time you say that you can’t afford the purchase of a course, a book or any information that leads to so many successes…take stock as to what you can afford.  Can you afford your Starbucks lattes, your cigarettes, your Naives…pops I mean Evians or daily lunches out with friends?  

Could your disposable income be at least $20.00 a day?  $100.00 a week can buy you a lot of education, a lot of training and in fact a lot of marketing for your home based franchise.  What is it worth to you to realize your ultimate goals and dreams?

Stop making excuses and stop using the word can’t, and if you choose not to, that’s OK, just realize that the only person that you are fibbing to is to yourself.

If you are not satisfied with where you are today with your home based franchise...make the changes that are necessary to change the destiny of your life. 

If you have questions on any portion of this series, give me a call or send me over an email.   

Go, take action and make it a terrific and profitable day.
