Patio Heater Lighting Intructions

These patio heaters can be rented from ASAP Tent and Party Rentals in Toronto and the GTA and at Delux Tents and Events in Southeastern Michigan. This lovely instruction video was made by Delux Tents

This is interesting as it seems to be echoing trends here in North America. While some are doing some serious belt tightening and opting for smaller, more intimate parties there also seems to be a growing segment for lavish, over the top extravaganzas.

The DIY wedding still reigns supreme for couples wanting to keep a close eye on the nuptual budget – and get hands on with the arrangements.

Royal watchers waiting for titillating tidbits are maybe disappointed. According to reports not much happened.

The party has happened and it was in the UK  and they had fun.

Not much is said to have happened but the prince with a group of 20 or so spent the weekend boating, waterskiing and pub crawling.

Sounds Prince Williamish. I like the waterskiing but wasn’t  it cold?

With royal wedding interest in high gear, here are a few fresh bachelor party planning ideas.
