share their big day with their closest friends and family members. The WPI has urged wedding planners to offer microwedding packages in an effort to capitalize on this emerging trend. Data from The Wedding Report indicated that the total number of weddings would rise to 2.77 million in 2021, an increase of roughly 650,000 over the yearly average. Even if only a fraction of couples who tie the knot in 2022 opt for a microwedding, a preexisting microwedding package can help wedding planners secure their business. Couples who opt for microweddings may do so to save money, but also to avoid the effort and save the time required to plan more lavish affairs. Such couples may be especially excited to work with wedding planners who can plan their weddings regardless of how small the Microweddings are not necessarily a affair may be. new trend, as couples have always had the option of getting married with only a small number of family and friends in attendance. However, microweddings Nothing should be off the table could be an emerging trend, and cost may have a lot to do with that. when planning a microwedding. The The Wedding Planner Institute notes fewer the people who will be there, that microweddings cost anywhere the more freedom planners and from $1,600 to $10,000, though the couples may have. The WPI notes that group notes that most microweddings microweddings afford planners and fall somewhere in the middle of couples the chance to get personal in that range. A 2020 survey from TD ways that may not be possible when Ameritrade found that 47 percent of organizing larger affairs. Planners respondents felt that cost of living was can focus on small details and allow the biggest threat to their ﬁnancial couples to make their ceremonies security and long-term investments. and receptions as personal as they Engaged couples confronting the would like. Couples who prefer well-documented post-pandemic microweddings tend to emphasize increase in cost of living, including minimalism, so keeping things simple an unprecedented rise in housing is something to keep in mind when costs, could see expensive weddings planning microweddings. Microweddings are an emerging as luxuries they simply can’t afford. Microweddings could be viewed as a trend that make for a realistic option cost-effective way to combat the rising for couples and the people they hire to cost of living that still allows couples to help them plan their big day. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have been far-reaching. People from all walks of life have had to confront the pandemic and the changes it wrought, and many of those changes could have some staying power. Wedding industry experts note that one of the more noticeable and potentially long-lasting effects of the pandemic has been the rise of microweddings. The 2020 Real Weddings Study (COVID-19 Edition) found that 58 percent of couples who planned to get married in 2020 ended up reducing their guest list by a signiﬁcant percentage. The average reduction was 41 percent, and some suspect small ceremonies may be the new normal in the years ahead.

A flashlight is an invaluable part of any disaster preparedness kit, and it’s a handy tool to have on hand in a car, at home or when traveling. You never know when you might need a flashlight, and it’s helpful to have many on hand. When stocking up on flashlights for emergency kits, choose ones with lightemitting diode, or LED, technology. According to Popular Mechanics, LED flashlights are 70 percent more efficient than incandescent models. That means the batteries powering the light have the potential to last 10 times longer. Furthermore, LEDs do not have any fragile parts like incandescent bulbs. That makes them more likely to withstand shock or even endure being dropped.

Hosting at home requires attention to detail. Choosing the right accessories and accoutrements is part of setting a formal dinner party scene and creating an inviting atmosphere. The following approach can serve as a guide for men and women as they prepare to host a formal dinner party.

Practice A Proper Table Setting

The art of a properly set table may have fallen out of favor, but it’s one thing that may impress your guests the most. You’ll need speciﬁc settings for formal events, and there are plenty of online tutorials offering advice from etiquette experts. Invest in a new tablecloth to serve as an impressive base for the beautiful table settings.

Send Proper Invitations

While many people have grown accustomed to the convenience of evites, nothing conveys the formality of an event better than a traditional paper invitation. Find invitations that match the tone of your dinner party, whether semiformal or formal. This will help set the tone and let guests know what to wear.

Take inventory of the types of dishes, glasses, silverware, and serving platters you have. If items don’t match or you do not have enough matching items for all guests, consider purchasing or renting items so everything matches. Plan ahead so you have enough dishes for the courses you will be serving without having to wash items in between.

Limit Your Courses

Whether you prefer a large table centerpiece or smaller bud vases all along the table, fresh ﬂowers add appeal and aroma to a space. Think about complementary ﬂowers in the living room or in the require major preparation or attention while guests restroom as well. Flowers are an added touch to are present. make formal dinner parties more special.

Know Your Bar Needs

Different drinks call for different glasses and tools for preparation. Therefore, offer a few signature drinks and stock the items that will be needed for them. Red and white wine glasses, coupe glasses, martini glasses, single rocks glasses, and double oldfashioned glasses are some of the most common to have on hand. You’ll need stirrers, cocktail shakers

Purchase A Sensational Sweet

The Story Of Cupid What would Valentine’s Day be without images of a golden-tressed boy armed with bow and arrows? The arrows represent feelings of love and desire, and they are aimed and cast at various individuals, causing them to fall deeply in love — or fall out of it. In Roman mythology, the boy is known as Cupid and is the son of Venus, the goddess of love. Portrayed as a cherubic and mischievous toddler, this magical boy was purported to be the matchmaker of gods and mortals alike. For students of Greek mythology, Cupid represents Eros, the Greek word for “desire.” He was the son of Aphrodite, Venus’ Hellenistic counterpart, and would play with the hearts of mortals and gods, sometimes leaving

mayhem in his wake. In Greek mythology, Eros was more teenager than bubbly baby, and capitalized on his status as a heartthrob rather than the cherubic status of Roman mythology, according to Richard Martin, a Stanford University professor. While Cupid may have been an adorable imp, some historians say Eros had a darker side, going so far as to describe him as calculating and sinister — forcing the wrong people into lovelorn matches. According to Museum Hack, while Cupid could make people fall in and out of love, he also was once in love himself. In this telling, Cupid is a young man when Venus learns that a mortal girl is born with such great beauty that others start to forget to worship Venus, adoring this girl

instead. Upset about the misdirected adoration toward this mortal, Venus asks Cupid to have the girl, Psyche, fall in love with a monster. Cupid agrees, but once he sees Psyche he “accidentally” hits himself with one of his own golden arrows and falls in love with Psyche. The resulting match does not prove easy, and through a series of unfortunate events, Psyche must prove her love to Cupid and accomplish various tasks to win back his heart. Eventually, Psyche does and achieves goddess status. Cupid has been portrayed both as a young man and child through Renaissance art and beyond. When Valentine’s Day became popular in the 18th and 19th centuries, Cupid was linked to Valentine’s

Day celebrations due to his matchmaking abilities. His popularity only continued in the early 20th century,

when Hallmark began to manufacture Valentine’s Day cards featuring Cupid. Cupid helped push

people together in ancient mythology, and he can even be the catalyst for modern day matchmaking as well.

Picture Perfect Wedding Day Photography Tips

Few things document weddings more effectively than photographs. Carefully curated wedding albums and portraits hung on walls serve as daily reminders of a couple’s special day. Photography is often left in the very qualiﬁed hands of professional photographers. However, couples can pitch in to make their photos really pop. These picture pointers from industry insiders can help couples put their best smile forward.

Enlist A Family Photo Coordinator

Leave Ample Time

Delve Into The Details

A carefully orchestrated timeline can ensure photos are the best they can be. Why? Because a couple who is relaxed and not overwhelmed will notice that attitude translates to their photographs. When planning wedding timelines, couples should leave ample opportunities for getting dressed, chatting with the wedding party and going through various photography settings to grab great photos, advise the experts at Martha Stewart.

Play Your Style Safe

A wedding day is not a time for the bride or groom to try a dramatic new style, according to photographer Amanda Lamb. Resist the urge for a daring cut or color. It’s also likely not the place to try out new facial hair or heavy makeup. A couple unaccustomed to the way they look may be shy in front of the camera.

If the photographer does not have his or her own assistant, recruit someone who is assertive to help wrangle everyone for the family shots. Attempt to get family photos when family members are relaxed but not too far rumpled by dancing or having a good time.

Prepare wedding details, like gowns, shoes, accessories, etc., in advance to save time once the photographer arrives, suggests Desi Mendoza, a pro from Dez and Tam Photography. Invest in a beautiful hanger for the wedding gown as well, because you may want to photograph that on its own.

Put Together A Short List

The photographer will have his or her ideas of which shots to cover, but a couple with speciﬁc goals in mind should relay that information to their photographer. For example, if a grandparent is getting up in years, request some solo photos of that person so you can look back on happy times together. Certain couples want to be snapped posing with a beloved pet. Putting that on the list helps ensure it will happen.

Learn To Pose

Couples can practice posing in front of mirrors to get a feel for body positions that put them in their best light. A photographer’s advice in regard to posture is invaluable as well. Create space between arms and the body and learn how to angle the body so you look your best. Photos will capture wedding day memories forever. Couples can put themselves in the best positions for success by following some photography guidelines.

Entertaining is a great way to show good will and friendship to others and to celebrate special occasions. Many people can successfully throw parties, but hosting a great party takes a little extra effort. By following some tips, hosts can ensure their next party is one to remember.

Stick To A Theme

Many party hosts ﬁnd that themes help in the planning. Themes make it easy to coordinate invitations, decor, food, and music. Guests also may enjoy dressing up according to the theme.

Start Making Lists

Have A Seating Plan

Have ample seating available and consider assigning seats at formal affairs so guests can sit next to friends or like-minded fellow invitees.

Do As Much You Can In Advance

When hosting at home, spend the day prior to the party getting the house in order and making any food if the party will not be catered. If it will be catered, conﬁrm with the catering company the delivery time and ﬁrm up any other details. You’ll be far less frazzled if you space out your tasks than trying to squeeze them in a few hours before guests arrive.

Expect Early/Late Arrivals

Some people just aren’t punctual. Some may leave home too early and arrive well before the party starts, while others think “fashionably late” is showing up long after the party starts. Have some easy-to-grab snacks so that early and late guests can munch while you ﬁnish your tasks.

Stick To What You Know

A dinner party or other event may not be the best time to get creative. Lean on recipes you’ve made before and can guarantee correct timing and ﬂavor.

Spread Out Foods And Beverages

Guests tend to bottleneck around the goodies. Ensure mingling and avoid trafﬁc jams by having drinks and snacks in different locations. These are just a handful of ways hosts can throw memorable parties where everyone has a good time.

Wedding planning involves many movable pieces that ultimately need to come together on the big day. Planning is typically a months-long process, and adhering to certain monthly benchmarks can help couples stay the course. Brides magazine offers that the perfect engagement period is 12 to 14 months, which affords ample time to get organized and work with vendors. With that in mind, here’s a 12-month timeline for couples getting ready to say “I do.”

12 Months Out

At the start of the planning process, establish your budget, hire a wedding planner (optional), choose the wedding party, pick a date, and start to assemble a cursory guest list. This also is a great time to begin touring venues to get a feel for potential ceremony and reception locales.

arrangements. Your place of worship also may require certain classes or preparatory meetings, so be sure to inquire about these. Meet with a makeup and hair stylist and book a trial. Choose attire for groomsmen and give them a deadline for fittings and orders. If you will not be getting married in a place of worship, Now is the time to get a firm hire an officiant at this time. handle on the theme and scope of the wedding. Start picking wedding colors and overall design. Also, interview and Grooms traditionally arrange the hire vendors, such as photographers, bands and videographers. These honeymoon, so this is a fine time to vendors tend to book up quickly as get those travel plans in order. If you wedding season draws near, so it’s need passports, you should secure never too early to book them. them as early as possible, and no later than four months prior to the wedding to ensure processing times. Book cake This is a good time to start shopping tastings and order the cake if it is not for a wedding gown because it might part of the venue food and beverage take some trial and error to find the package. If you haven’t already done perfect dress. You also can start so, the bride should have an initial shopping for wedding party attire gown fitting, and wedding invitations at this time. Check with formalwear should be ordered at this time. vendors to see how long it will take for the gowns to arrive in the shop for alterations.

Finalize any deciding if you will host a seated song selections with the DJ or band. The final details will occur in the dinner, a buffet or something else. Eight months out also is a good time last weeks before the wedding.

No Super Bowl Sunday Is Complete Without Chicken Wings Super Bowl LVI is Sunday, February 13, 2022. Few events generate as much enthusiasm among sports fans and non-sports fans as the Super Bowl. For sports fans who can’t wait to see the National Football League crown a new champion, the game itself is a must-watch event.

For those who aren’t fans of the game, Super Bowl Sunday is still a chance to chow down and socialize with friends and family. There’s no right or wrong way to watch the Super Bowl, but some might consider a Super Bowl soiree without chicken wings a major faux

pas. For those who want to avoid such a misstep, this recipe for “Virgil’s Smoked Chicken Wings With Blue Cheese Dip” from Neal Corman’s “Virgil’s Barbecue Road Trip Cookbook” (St. Martin’s Press) is sure to please.

Virgil’s Smoked Chicken Wings With Blue Cheese Dip Serves 4 Blue Cheese Dip 2 cups blue cheese crumbles, divided 1 cup mayonnaise 1⁄2 cup buttermilk 2 teaspoons hot sauce 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt 1⁄4 cup finely chopped scallions 1⁄4 cup finely chopped celery

Place in a covered container and refrigerate overnight. 3. Mix all the marinade ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Place the wings in a large container with a lid and pour the mixture over the wings. Toss until the wings are thoroughly coated. Cover and refrigerate for 2 days. 4. Preheat the grill or smoker to 245 F. 5. Spread out the wings on a sheet pan and wipe away any excess marinade. Sprinkle liberally with the dry rub, coating the wings all over. 6.

The Charity of the Month for February is

Family & Children’s Association www.fcali.org With locations across Nassau and Suffolk, Family & Children’s Association (FCA) is a not-for-profit organization that is dedicated to providing help and hope to Long Island’s most vulnerable children, families, seniors and communities. FCA envisions a Long Island where a legacy of optimal health, educational success and economic security passes from one generation to the next; each year it serves 30,000 individuals and families in Suffolk and Nassau counties. Its mission strives to make our island a better place for all of us to live, work and raise a family. FCA has served Long Islanders since 1884 and today its more than 40 programs fall into five big areas of need: Addiction Prevention, Treatment & Recovery Taking on addiction from every angle, beginning with prevention. Recovery support services are offered Islandwide with offices from Hempstead to Westhampton Beach. Children’s Mental Health & Wellness This division offers an array of services and supports designed to promote the health and wellness of children and their families. The services are for individuals up to 21 years of age who have or are at risk of developing a mental health diagnosis. Services are always free to clients, voluntary, family-driven, strength-based, and culturally competent, with location and scheduling tailored to each family’s needs. They also provide support for the families of individuals with mental and/ or behavioral health issues. Prevention & Family Support FCA’s prevention team provides critical services to at-risk children and families including a nursery co-op program,

alcohol and substance abuse and gun violence r e d u c t i o n program, and more, through collaboration, education, and advocacy. Residential Care FCA operates four residences that focus on quality care, seamless transitions and well-managed aftercare services for youth. Nassau Haven and Walkabout provide emergency shelter and longer term transitional housing for homeless, runaway and trafﬁcked youth. Two other residences support children and young adults with serious emotional disturbances or mental health issues. Senior & Adult Services FCA believes that every senior deserves to live with dignity, safety and independence. FCA helps more than 10,000 seniors a year with meal deliveries, caregiver support, home visits for companionship, elder abuse prevention and advocacy. The number of people who turn to FCA for help is growing and with it, the need for donations to close gaps in government funding. FCA’s programs and services are greatly enhanced by the involvement of others, whether through donations of time or money, and welcome the help of all Long Islanders to further its mission. Therefore, if you would like to get involved with this organization, you can! Stay tuned for next week’s article to learn about ways you can give, such as Mission Moment Scholarship Fund, Legacy Planning and Giving Tree, along with Adopt-A-Family and volunteer opportunities! For more information, please visit www. fcali.org or contact Craig Pinto, Chief Development Ofﬁcer at (516) 746-0350 x4320.

The first Friday each February, American Heart Month, the nation comes together, igniting a wave of red from coast to coast. From landmarks to online communities, neighborhoods to news anchors, this annual groundswell unites millions of people for a common goal: the eradication of heart disease and stroke. Through the Go Red for Women movement, the American Heart Association encourages people to take action in February by: • Wearing red on National Wear Red Day, Friday, February 4, 2022, to raise awareness about cardiovascular disease. The iconic Red Dress pin and other apparel are available at ShopHeart.org. • Making a donation to support the lifesaving work

of the American Heart Association at WearRedDay. org. Big Lots and the Big Lots Foundation will match online donations on National Wear Red Day, up to $333,333. • Visiting CVS Health and making a donation at the register. Donations can also be made online at www. CVSHealth.com/GoRed. • Joining Research Goes Red, a joint collaboration between the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women and Verily’s Project Baseline to engage more women directly to participate in research. • Joining the conversation by using #WearRedDay, #HeartMonth and #GoRedforWomen on social media. Learn more at GoRedforWomen.org.

Want To Maintain Good Health? Get An Annual Exam Annual exams play a vital role in staying healthy and are highly recommended by primary care physicians. Even if you’re feeling well, a regular assessment allows your doctor to have a complete picture of your physical well-being and help establish goals that include proper diet, exercise and weight management. Catholic Health Physician Partners Primary Care Physician Danielle Amisano, DO, discusses the importance of annual exams and the role they play in helping your doctor develop a plan to keep you healthy.

Heart Association’s 2022 Heart Disease & Stroke Statistical Update, cardiovascular disease remains the greatest health threat for women. Experts say the effects of COVID-19 are likely to influence cardiovascular health and mortality rates for many years, directly and indirectly, physically, and emotionally. This is why the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women® movement, nationally sponsored by CVS Health, alongside National Wear Red Day Matching Sponsor Big Lots, and locally sponsored by our Life is Why sponsors Mount Sinai South Nassau and Petro Home Services and our Live Fierce Go Red sponsor Northwell Health, is asking women to make moves today to have healthier tomorrows.

practicing healthy forms of stress management, your doctor can work to develop a plan that will allow you to live a healthy life. The annual visit allows your physician to move from reacting to problems to preventing them. Q: What role does a primary care doctor play in annual checkups? A: As a primary care physician, my goal is to establish who you are on your best day in order to better help you on your worst day. This allows us to build a more complete understanding of how lifestyle affects health and enables us to better treat our patients when they are sick. As with most relationships, the key to success is a strong foundation of mutual trust. I approach my role in annual visits as a coach, mentor, counselor and confidant.

Q: At what age would you suggest starting the habit of annual exams? A: My suggestion is to start at any age. No matter your phase of life, you and your physician can work together to prepare for any challenges. Our bodies are constantly changing and being affected by our choices. It is important that we move away from looking at our health as a dichotomy between feeling sick and feeling well.
