We hope that our not-so subtle hinting in the lead up to Valentine’s prompted some romantics to pop the question this year. Voted as one of the most popular days in the year to get down on one knee, we’re sure there are some romantic stories out there to share. We’d love to hear your proposal stories, whether they were from this Valentine’s or not, so send them over to us on Facebook or Twitter.

 

Engagement Ideas

If your other half did get all teary eyed and delved into their pocket for a shiny ring this year, you’ve got some serious planning ahead of you. You may be hoping to wed next month or leaving it for another year. Don’t feel like you have to get stressed just yet, why not have an interlude and celebrate with an engagement party?

 

Invite all your friends round, get the champagne flowing and scatter the tables with tasty treats and fabulous favours. Get a guest book and ask your guests to write down their fondest memories of you as a couple (this could be particularly useful for speeches on the big day!) Get their input for ideas for the wedding and, most importantly, take lots of pictures! There’s a lot of pressure and build up to a wedding day so prove to yourself that you can organise a great party and give the family members a chance to get their drunken dancing out of the way!

Don’t be that other half that makes a last minute dash to the garage for some flowers and wine that has started to fizz (and isn’t meant to). There’s still plenty of time to make this Valentine’s extra special with WeDoCompany. Over at FabGifts4u we have some fantastic Valentine’s gifts that will definitely keep you in the good books, until you forget an anniversary or birthday of course. Want to ensure that your big romantic gesture is unique? Have a peruse through our customisable presents.

 

This Butterfly Round Compact is perfect for a lady who cares about her appearance. Just the right size for an handbag, it can be personalised with a message of your choice underneath a cute butterfly design. Give your lovely lady your heart this year with this Heart Atomiser. Add your own message to the silver plated atomiser and fill with your lady’s favourite perfume. A quick pointer, it is highly recommended that you don’t fill it with the perfume she already has on the shelf – she will notice!

 

For the handsome man in your life, this Ornate Swirl Juice Glass certainly doesn’t have to be reserved for juice. Customise the glass with your own loved-up message and present alongside a bottle of your hubby’s favourite tipple. We love a bit of corniness at FabGifts4u and this Sexiest Boyfriend Pillow does just the trick. Tell your other half how devishley handsome he is all through the night with this personalised pillow case.

Love hearts and teddy bears aren’t for everyone and this becomes quite apparent on one particular day of the year. For some, February 14th is all about being as loved up and cheesy as possible. However many believe it is a money-making, corporate holiday. If you’re planning to have an anti-Valentine’s this year, whether it’s a night in with a movie or a night out on the town with your friends, we’ve got it covered.

 

Are you anti-Valentine's?

For those couples who would much rather avoid any contact with the sequin lined shops or overpriced restaurants and hotel rooms, why not curl up with a duvet and a good film or box set, The Wire or Mad Men would do nicely, and indulge in a few treats. Share a bottle of champers and get a take-away, some quality time together can be the perfect way to spend Valentine’s.

Celebrating Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be just for the couples, get your single friends together and plan an anti-Valentine’s night out. Sneak out those hip flasks, don’t forget your compact, and have a fantastic evening with the people you love. Forget singing cards and rose petals, February 14th can be about celebrating independence and not having to pick up someone else’s socks.

 

We want to hear all of your alternative Valentine’s ideas. Tell us what you’re doing on our Facebook or Twitter page.

As the new year starts to kick in with full swing, many will be thinking that this is the year they say ‘I Do’. If 2012 is the year you’re going to be tying the knot, you’re not alone. Celebrities across the world are feeling loved up this year as their plans are being set in stone for the biggest day of their lives. So which are the big weddings to keep an eye out for?

2012 Weddings

 

After giving birth to a new baby in October last year, Ne-Yo and partner Monyetta are planning to wed early 2012. Proving that romance isn’t just for the young and reckless, Aretha Franklin plans to say ‘I Do’ this year with Willie Wilkerson. It may not be the first time Steve Tyler has walked down the aisle but he ensures that his 2012 wedding with Erin Brady will be his last. Singer Justin Timberlake hasn’t let a short break from girlfriend Jessica Biel ruin his plans, he proposed on the ski slopes of Wyoming last year and the couple will be wed later in 2012. Of course the talk of the town is the massive wedding between Britney Spears and Jason Trawick, just what will she wear?!

 

It doesn’t matter if you’re not the latest singing sensation or if you haven’t acted in Blockbuster films, everyone gets to be a superstar at their own wedding. Make your wedding ceremony one to remember and, most importantly, make sure everyone has fun.

We hope that everyone has had a fantastic Christmas and is looking forward to welcoming in the new year tonight. We’ve certainly enjoyed a bit of time off at WeDoCompany and it has left us fresh-faced and ready to start 2012 with a bang. Any orders placed with us over the next few days will be despatched on the 6th of January but after that we’re back into the normal swing of things.

Over the last year we’ve celebrated everything from Mother’s Day to New Babies, Unique Weddings to Housewarmings. We really have had a gift for every occasion this year and 2012 will be no different.

Personalised Champagne

There’s nothing fun about post-Christmas blues and this time next week all the present wrapping, turkey stuffing and tree decorating will be over. We’re always looking for the silver lining at WeDoCompany, so rather sink into a chocolate-filled state of sadness, this time next week we’ll be thinking about New Years!

Just because Father Christmas isn’t making his way round the corner, it doesn’t mean that everything has to be doom and gloom. Start thinking about your New Years plans so that there is still plenty to look forward to. It’s impossible to celebrate New Years without a glass or two of tipple so why not make this year extra special, not only with a champagne bottle but a personalised champagne bottle! We’ve got a whole range of them over at FabGifts4u, each with a unique label that can be customised to read a message, name or date of your choice. You won’t have to worry about showing up empty handed and it’s a bespoke gift that will definitely keep you in the recipient’s good books.
