Getting married is a big gamble because no one knows which half they are the marriages that end in divorce. According to theknot.com, 31,000 couples are planning to get married on “lucky” 7-7-07. This number is triple the usual number of the July 4 weekend weddings. Triple number “7” lining up on a Las Vegas slot machine gets you a jackpot payoff.

Couples getting married on 7-7-07 are looking for extra luck for their “jackpot” marriage. But staying happily married is not about luck: it is a big task that is all about communication and physical and emotional connection.

If you are going to marry on 7-7-07 and you want to add more luck to your wedding, I suggest that you create your own Jackpot Wedding Care package: you and your partner can create a more personal and meaningful beginning to your marriage. It is a “survival kit” for the first year of marriage.

I suggest you put lucky 7 items inside the “Jackpot” Wedding Care Package. Each item is necessary to bring extra luck when you prepare for the marriage and to keep the marriage strong and happy. Inside the Jackpot Wedding Care Package, put the following items together as a wedding present to you and your partners:

• a talking stick or rock (each uniquely designed and craft-painted by the couple)
• a journal book (the bride recording her thoughts as the wedding day approaches)
• a weekly “Honey To-do List”
• sexy lovers’ coupon book
• personalized wedding vows (to be rewritten and renewed on each anniversary)
• a prenuptial marriage agreement (fun and sexy, not just financial agreements)
• sexy photos of the couple

If you are already married, you still can create this Jackpot Wedding Care Package. and a “marriage stimulator” for couples who are already married.

No one would know how good you are if you would not let them know about it. Whether you are promoting yourself for a job or for a date, you have to advertise yourself well.

You have written your own personal ad. Unfortunately, no one seems to be paying attention on your ad. You are a little apprehensive that you do not possess the skills you need to write a successful ad. You are thinking that perhaps it’s not really your writing that’s making you less appealing but your very own personality. You want to overhaul your ad but you are considering others to write for you because you feel you can’t make an eye-catching ad.

Do not feel dampen about it. There’s a lot in you than you can think of. It’s just a matter of assessing yourself. Discover your full potentials. Examine your ad and check what’s lacking in there. You might only be missing some good points.

Want to write a successful personal ad to get you in your dream job or a hot date? Why ask someone else to write for you when you can hire yourself to be your advertiser!

Be your own brand manager. It’s all right to ask your friends how are you as a person. But remember, it is only you who knows your true personality. It’s just that sometimes, you do not pay attention analyzing yourself and discovering your full potentials.

Here are some helpful tips in writing successful personal ads.

1. Be honest

Do not let others expect too much from you or expect less of you. Write what is only true. Do not exaggerate data. Bare your true personality. Don’t under estimate yourself. Show your best qualities if you must. You should not be ashamed to flaunt it if you really have it.

2. Be different

Create your own style. What makes an ad boring is that it looks like the same as the others. If your readers see that it’s same as the others, they might even think that you just copy your own. Be unique. Make an exclusive claim of your ad. Avoid being stereotyped. This will make your individuality a lot visible. And this will set you among the rest. Avoid creating an impression that you are plain and boring.

3. Learn from reading others

Examine other works. Read them carefully and take note of their good points in writing. Search for the best successful personal ads and make them your guide in developing your own style. Determine the styles they use to make their ad very interesting.

4. Start with a good lead

Your first sentence should make the readers read the succeeding sentences. This means that your first line should immediately catch reader’s attention. Make a sweeping statement about yourself. Summarize in one sentence how interesting you are before you go through the meat of it. If you introduce yourself like, “Hi, I’m Peter Scott, 24.”, chances are they’ll just close their window and move on to the next ad. Your lead must build up interest and give an exciting preview of what they would expect when they read the entire ad.

5. Go to the meat of you ad thoroughly

Don’t restrict yourself from going through the details of your admirable features. Go into the meat of your abilities, skills and assets. Specify what you want out of this ad. Check closely if you have put all the necessary description of your personality. Do not enumerate boringly. Insert a lot of positive adjectives to enhance the list of your qualities. It will benefit you a lot if you can make your readers understand how these qualities can be of best benefit to them. Be consistent on hyping them with your ad.

6. End with a great impact

Once you have established yourself well enough from the lead and the meat of your end, make sure that you leave a lasting impact to your readers. Your ending paragraph should encourage urgent response. Make your readers feel that you are one of the most sought after people. That if they take time considering you they might end up losing you.

7. Play up your best assets.

In the meat of your article, follow an inverted pyramid style. Start with your most important and admirable assets going through the least of them in the end. If you impress them with your finest qualities, they will take little notice of your weaknesses. Impress them first hand. Play up your expertise. Focus on them. Enhance these with striking sentences to enhance your skills and other qualities.

8. Package yourself

As I said, be your own brand manager. Brand yourself based on your excellent skills and qualities. Create your own identity and make it evident to your writing.

9. Stand out of the crowd

Now, read the other ads. Compare yours to them. Ask yourself, does your ad stands out among the rest? Make sure that it does because once you stand out, it will be easy for the readers to pick you as their choice. Shine among the rest.

10. Write your finer points

Transform your weaknesses into fine points. Or better yet, make your weak points very subtle. Focus more on your finer qualities. In fact, lure your readers to a number of your fine points so that they may forget to ask about your weaknesses.

Lastly, be your own judge. While it is good to consider other people’s perception on you, do not depend entirely on them. Be objective. If you think that their judgment is baseless, do not entertain them.

Create your own image and be creative as possible. Let your readers get hook on your personal ad. Love your qualities and be confident with what you are. Put your best foot forward. These are the keys in writing a successful personal ad.

Make a lasting impression and you will reap the attention of thousand readers out there. Yes, more than you can handle. So what are you waiting for? Grab your pen and write your way to success!

So you’ve decided to go the route of making your own shower invitations. This says several things: that you want them to be unique, you want them to be memorable, and you want them to say something about you and your betrothed that perhaps can’t be said any other way. Well, here are a few tips on creating bridal shower invitations that will help you achieve all of the above and more. Read on to find out more.

Ribbons & Lace

Nothing says “romance” like ribbons and lace on your shower invitations. To get the look you want, buy several yards of a variety of both ribbon and lace, a hot-glue gun, and…experiment! Be sure to keep in mind that you will be incorporating your ribbons and lace with the lettering and any artwork you may be adding. In fact, sketching these major elements in first and then working the ribbons/lace around that would be the smartest way to approach the project. Give yourself plenty of time. This could take a while!

Lettering

Doing the lettering on your own shower invitations turns them into much more than the average invitation! They then become a cherished keepsake that can be handed down to generations. And just think how impressive they will be to your friends and family! Learning the art of calligraphy takes time, patience, and practice, practice, practice. Don’t expect to pick it up over a weekend.

If you intend to use calligraphy for lettering your invitations, look for a class held at your local community college or from an individual offering them. One thing’s for sure – to pay a professional to hand-letter your invitations, you will be looking at mucho dinero, so it’s well worth the effort to learn this graceful art of beautiful handwriting yourself. And besides, you may be able to use it many more times in the future for other types of projects like Christmas cards, certificates, posters – you name it.

Proofreading Your Handiwork

Whether you hand-letter your do-it-yourself shower invitations or print them off on your computer, always, always proofread them! There’s little more embarrassing than sending out 50 invitations and then realizing you’ve left off the address. Or the time. Or the date. So take the time to look once, then twice to make sure you’ve not left any important information off them or that you haven’t misspelled something.

Add the Correct Postage

Once you’ve gotten all your shower invitations perfect and ready to go, for heaven’s sake make sure you put the correct amount of postage on them! It’s easy to misjudge when you have the extra weight of decorations added to the cards, so don’t judge by size of the envelopes alone. The best way to make sure you’ve got appropriate postage on them is to take them to the post office and have them weighed, and then send them from there. That way you’re sure to not have any surprise returned mail in your box along with the expense of having to re-do another envelope to be sent out.

These are just a few things to think about when deciding on doing your own shower invitations. For a good way to come up with even more ideas, brainstorm with friends and family, go online and check out a few bridal shower forums, and visit your local library. By doing your homework, giving yourself plenty of time, and exchanging thoughts on the subject with other people as interested as you are, you’re sure to come up with some terrific ideas!
