Relationship tips to keep your marriage humming!

Communication is a practice.

Why do we pay doctors and lawyers so much to “practice” on us? I guess there are some things in life that we should never stop working on and improving. Communication is one of those things; you are not born with good communication skills, you develop them over a lifetime. It’s not always fun to talk about tough subjects—money, religion, raising kids— but it’s invaluable to a healthy and happy relationship. Don’t get discouraged when you have a hard time communicating, just keep practicing!

Your wedding cake can be your statement piece at your Asheville NC wedding.  We are so lucky to have 2 of the best bakers in town be apart of StudioWed Asheville.  To prove it to you, check out these 5 gorgeous cakes that Cakes By Jane has made for past Asheville weddings.  I can vouch that they also taste deeeeeelicious!

Dinning innovations always does such a great job when catering an event.  They recently have been very active on social media, and it felt only fitting to show you some of the great work that they can.

It is all about the little things when you work with a great Asheville wedding vendor.  For example, check out these fun napkin folds that Dinning Innovations has perfected for each event.

Needless to say the details always look great but it is truly all about the food with catering.  How delicious do these shrimp cocktails look!?

For more details on how to book Dinning Innovations for you Asheville wedding, contact us from our site. Happy planning!

Reframe Problems as Opportunities for Improvement.

 We ignore problems in order to avoid the pain of confronting them, but the irony is that we ultimately suffer more as a result of our avoidance. Problems multiply when we avoid them, and they go away when we confront them.

The key is to focus on the other side of the problem; a problem can be a real break, a chance to get out of a rut and make yourself or your situation better. Problems don’t always arise as a result of external factors or bad events; any new awareness you have that allows you to see possibilities for improvement presents a problem for you to solve.

In order to have a healthy relationship, you have to become a problem seeker rather than a problem avoider.
