Getting married in May of 2011 and beginning my budget. Looking for a nice hall for my reception for 100 guest.

I checked all the websites and the cheapest I have found is $247.00. My fiance wants to wait it out and I am scared the prices will go back up. Has anyone found any cheaper and if so, what website? I got this price from Priceline. We are going in November.

I am a Virgo going through a real rough patch with my Capricorn. As of late every time I express how I feel about a particular situation or a conversation, he takes it personal, gets really defensive and replies harshly. Just this morning I told him I know he loves me but I don't feel he likes me because he's been complaining about me not being passive enough and always questioning everything. His reply was that he feels I don't love him at all, but gave no reasons. I asked him was he serious, did he just say that because of what I said and how long has he been feeling this way? He replied for a couple of weeks now and how else was he supposed to respond when I said he didn't like me? My feelings are deeply hurt because everytime I tell him how I am feeling, he tells me I make him feel worse. He said we will talk tonight, but I don't know what to say to him. This has been going on for weeks now. Any suggestions on what to do?

Me and my fiance are going to Chicago the first week in March. I was wondering if Sheds Aquarium is in downtown Chicago because that is the first place we are going when we get there on Friday. How far is it away from the Magnificent Mile? So far we are planning to stay at the Seneca and we are planning to go to the Art Institute on Saturday.

What's your opinion of it? Expedia is offering a price of $89.00 a night which is an awesome price and the Congress hotel is $85.00 a night.

My fiance's birthday party is in two weeks and I just want it to be over! I am very frustrated with the time restraint we are under and wish we had not opted to rent a hall because of the time limitation. Can anyone give suggestions on how their 50th birthday party ran from start to finish so maybe I won't stress so badly?

Please tell me why you would or wouldn't.

I am a Virgo and I share many similarities with Capricorns. My sweetheart and I are so characteristically alike that it is scary. We can finish one another's sentences and can communicate with just a look. We are both stubborn beyond belief and when we initially become angry at someone, we just sit there and stare at you like you are the dumbest person on the planet until we give you a vicious tongue lashing. We are both very family oriented, have the same values, have the same type of sense of humor, loyal, love traveling, have a few close friends that we hold dear to our hearts and have been our friends for years, become totally engrossed in movies and live life to the fullest.

Okay, your turn!

I don't like opening cans of biscuits because of the popping sound they make when the air comes out. I especially hate opening the larger ones like Hungry Jack because the noise is louder. I usually have someone else open them or I'll throw them on the floor and run in the other room. Just thinking about it makes me laugh and I think it's so dumb, but I can't seem to shake it. LOL!

Just want to see if anyone is on the same page I am. Best answer gets 10 points.

Please state your sign and explain what mood certain weather conditions cause such as if it's raining or sunny.

I'm a Virgo and it is raining and very gloomy outside, but the temperature is beautiful and I am in a spectacular mood. Everybody thinks I'm nuts, except two people, because they are in a bad mood because it's raining. Did a survey at work and the results were interesting based on the signs.

I am not giving him a birthday party because that is cliche and it will just be the two of us. I would like some romantic ideals as well as a unique gift. My capricorn is extremely romantic and very affectionate. I believe his birthday is on a Sunday, but I want to begin doing things on Friday. I have some ideals of my own, but I want to hear others.

My fiance' will be 50 in January and I want to do something unique and special for him, but I don't want to give him a party because that is so cliche'. I'll let someone else do that! I want to do something romantic, special and unique? Any suggestions?

My fiance wants to go on a 3 day Bahamas cruise in December. I tried pricing the flight apart from the cruise, but that was totally frustrating, so I added the price with the cruise and it 1636.34 for an interior room. (The pricing is for both of us). Is it worth it going to the Nassau Bahamas for this length of time? What is there to do? I personally don't think it's worth it, but he wants to go really bad. I'm looking into a 4 day Vegas trip instead, but I wanted some insight about the cruise before I make a decision.

I'm thinking about the MGM Grand hotel and cirque du soleil is performing there as well. I'm trying to plan a trip for December.

I am a Virgo and I am always coming up with something. We are attending the Ohio Jazz Festival in July, so I am having a CD made for my sweetheart with at least one song on it performed by each artist. I am going to give it to him before we go. If you don't do anything, as of yet, list something you would like to do.

Hotwire has a 4 night Western Caribbean Cruise on the Carnival Cruise Line. It goes to Key West Florida on day 2, day 3 to Cozumel Mexico and day for at sea. For an Oceanview Stateroom for 2, the total is $752.60. Is this a good price? Is the Oceanview Stateroom a good room to stay in? Also, is it cheaper booking the flight separately or including it with the price of the cruise? How much spending money do you need? Are there any hidden fees that will need to be paid once you are on the cruise? Will need passports?

My fiance' has been on several cruises, but I have not. I want to go on one, but he wants to do a cruise that sails for a day and then ports the entire time we are there until we leave. Is there such a cruise? He suggested maybe us getting a travel agent to help?
