WEDDING MISTAKES YOU SHOULDN’T MAKE

A wedding is a once in a lifetime event; so, it’s
good to have everything in order so you would
enjoy the memories that follow.
There are some wedding mistakes that you
should be wary of.
1. CHOOSING A FRIEND OVER A PRO
This is a common wedding day mistake that many
people make. You might have a friend who’s a DJ,
a photographer or a caterer. Because they are
your friends, you would be tempted to choose
them. However, this doesn’t go down well in
many cases. So many friends become so
unprofessional about their services, and there is
nothing you could do about it at that time.
2. SPENDING THE MONEY BUDGETED FOR
FASHION ON JUST THE DRESS
This is a common wedding mistake women make.
It’s good to have a budget for your wedding; this
keeps you in check. If you have money budgeted
for fashion, don’t get tempted to spend the
money on just your wedding dress alone.
Remember that there is also makeup, your hair,
accessories and shoes to contend with.
3. NOT HIRING A VIDEOGRAPHER
Photos are good but you would want that day to
be saved in video too. There are a lot of things
you would miss during your wedding, and
playing it over again on video would save you
special memories. If you can afford this, then
don’t leave it out.
4. STARTING YOUR MAKEUP LATE
Makeup takes time, and when it’s on your ‘D day’,
it takes more time. Starting your make-up late
could make you behind schedule for your
wedding, and you might end up rushing things.
This is a common mistake you should avoid.
5. SENDING OUT CARDS BEFORE PLANNING
Don’t be in a hurry to tell everyone about your
wedding or start giving out cards for your
wedding without planning on the kind of wedding
you want, the hall to be used and the number of
guests that you should invite.
Avoid these common wedding day mistakes and
enjoy the time of your life.

Take care of yourself__"The first wealth is health".

By Strive Masiyiwa  A few weeks ago I went to the doctor. I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time. We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone. And yet as I reflected on it, and later discussed it with a doctor friend who knew him, I realized he was very laid back about his health despite having a hectic business life. Even during our dinner...

Freedom: The One Thing Gaddafi Could Not Give — And the One Thing No Government Can Take Away

For years, the collapse of Libya under Muammar Gaddafi puzzled many observers across Africa and the world. How could a country with high living standards, generous state programs, and a strong economy turn so swiftly against a leader who appeared to have delivered materially for his people? This question is not just about Libya. It speaks to a deeper truth about governance, legitimacy, and the limits of developmental authoritarianism. It speaks to Africa’s political future. And it speaks directly to the crossroads at which Kenya now finds itself. --- The Libyan Paradox: Prosperity Without Liberty Before the 2011 uprising, Libya’s economic and social indicators were strikingly strong for the region. Gaddafi’s Libya boasted: Free education Free healthcare Subsidized housing Cheap fuel High employment An extensive welfare system These were not myths. The United Nations Human Development Index (HDI) of 2010 ranked Libya 53rd in the world and first in Africa. Even today, that ranking stands...
