How To Throw A Care-Package Party!

Veteran's Day is a time to remember all of those who have served or are serving in the armed forces. The best way to honor those currently serving is to put together a care package and send it to a location overseas where they can't get many of the locally available items they love.

With a little pre-planning you can invite friends, have a great time and provide a much needed morale boost to the men and women defending our freedom. So what do you do?

Where Your Packages Should Go

For safety reasons, it's not possible to send a care package to "any soldier". You'll have to have a specific soldier in mind. But don't fret if you don't personally know of any. You have options! The best choice would be to ask friends and family if they know of anyone serving overseas. That will allow you to make the items more personalized to his or her individual tastes.

However, if there is no one in your circle of friends with a ready name, you can always contact the closest military base to find out the best way to reach troops in need. They will happily give you all the information you need.

What You Should Send

Different kinds of food are always in demand. Of course, everything needs to be non-perishable so canned goods or dried foods such as beef jerky are very popular. If you send canned goods, make sure they are pop-tops. Most soldiers won't have access to a can opener. Before sending any items that need to be cooked, find out what methods for cooking your soldier can access and keep your items limited to that.

They also love spices, hot sauces or anything else to give those MRE's a little more flavor. Be wary of chocolate as it can melt and be a sticky mess when it arrives.

For entertainment purposes, sports magazines, movies, cards, handheld games and board games are perfect. Another highly sought after item would be batteries, double A's and D's being the most in need.

Free Boxes

The post office now offers free boxes that are 12x12x5. You can pack them as heavy as you like, and regardless of weight they will ship for $6!

Throw Your Party

Now comes the easy part, throw the party!

Invite friends and family to your home this Veteran's Day. Ask each of them to bring items on the list, and you can spend an afternoon packing free post office boxes, eating party food and enjoying time together as you prepare care packages that will mean so much to the soldiers you have chosen.

It's not only fun, it's the perfect way to spend the holiday!

Time For A Wedding Tour

Your wedding day should be a day of wonder and magic, but achieving that goal relies on many different factors. One of the biggies is the need to have the right venue, but how do you know? What if there is a venue you have yet to visit that would be better? Another big question involves which limo company you want to use. Which is the best?

The measure of any service company is the service they provide, and now Carriage House Charters and Limousines of Indianapolis, IN is offering you an amazing one to help you answer both of these big questions, the wedding tour!

The Tour with A Theme

So what exactly is a Carriage House wedding tour? It's a wonderful, fun-filled journey through a select number of venues where you get to travel in the comfort and luxury of a Carriage House limo and are guaranteed the opportunity to speak with representatives of the venue as well as vendors of all types. You'll get to tour the venues you most want to see, ask all the questions you want to ask and then be escorted back into the limo to be chauffeured to your next venue!

Even better, the tours are done with a theme in mind. This is so you get to see the types of venues you're interested in without having to worry about visiting any your not. They are conducting one on October 19th 2014 with a barn theme, touring barn venues in the Indianapolis area. And if a barn wedding isn't your thing, they'll be doing more in the near future, each with a different theme!

Getting to Know You

Another brilliant aspect of this tour is that it will give these venues and Carriage House a chance to get to know you, what you like, what you want and what you don't. And even more important, you'll have the opportunity to get to know them as well. How better to determine if you want to use the venue and limo service for your wedding? You'll also have a great chance to get to know other brides with interests similar to yours. You can compare notes, get ideas and make new friends!

Picking a venue and choosing a limo service isn't always easy. That's why Carriage House Charters and Limousines is offering you this opportunity to preview both!

Make Your Vision a Reality!

You may think that all limousine companies are the same. And who could blame you? There's little on the list of available services to distinguish one from the other. Of course, the limo's themselves offer a world of variety, but if multiple places carry the limo you want, how do you decide?

Like any other business, what truly sets these companies apart is the quality of service you receive. If you are renting for your wedding, a night on the town, a trip to the casino or even to entertain a corporate client, you can't afford and shouldn't have to settle for less. Well, worry no more. After you learn a little about AVision Limousine Services, you're sure to agree that they are the only limousine service you need to call in the Dallas, TX area!

Service You Can Rely On

The first step in limousine service is flexibility. Yes, it's nice when your night runs like clockwork and all your guests and events perform exactly when and how they should, but when is that ever the case? Someone is always running late or something gets postponed, moved up or cancelled. And that's okay! Whatever the problem, this company has got you covered.

AVision prides themselves on service flexibility. Each of their chauffeurs is highly trained to not only meet your needs as planned at the start of the night, but to troubleshoot any problems that arise so that every moment passes as effortless and smoothly as possible.

Limousine's You'll Love

Of course, a big part of good service is having what your customer wants. That's why this company has a huge fleet of limos sure to tickle your fancy. Are you scouring the internet looking for a gorgeous H2 Hummer? You'll find it here. Now, did you want that in the white or the black? They even have the larger model that seats up to 20 passengers!

But maybe the Hummer isn't your preference. Perhaps you have a burning desire for a Cadillac Escalade that seats up to 18 passengers? Or, if you're into the more traditional look, how about the black Lincoln accommodating up to 10 of your closest friends? If you're looking for choice, you need look no further!

AVision Limousine Services is the only call you need to make if you're looking for great service and a great night!
