Farmingdale Music Students Perform At The SCMEA’s Day Of Horn Wedding Flowers Becoming Larger Than Life

WEDDING FLOWERS - Couples are moving away from traditional centerpieces to floral chandeliers and curtains made of blooms for their weddings. from beams over tabletops to increase visual impact, whether as individual baskets, single stems or floral swags. Hanging floral chandeliers are dramatic but naturally expensive. Think about a large installation that forces guests to look up into a sea of greenery and flowers.

The smell and the sight can be breathtaking.

Floral Necklaces

Brides needn’t carry their bouquets, they can wear ethereal and whimsical floral pieces around their necks or on their waists instead.

Couples are urged to speak with their florists about the innovative ways they can make flowers an even more awe-inspiring component of their weddings.

Welcome Wreaths

Why should wreaths only be reserved for front doors and holiday decor? A welcome floral wreath can be placed by the entryway to a chapel or reception hall with a heartfelt sentiment that shows guests how much they’re appreciated.

Fairy-Tale Flowers

A floral curtain of hanging flowers can line a chuppah or drape the altar in beautiful blooms. Couples who would like a fairy-tale entrance also can make their debut as a couple by coming through a flower curtain at the reception. Martha Stewart Floral Chandeliers There’s no need to worry Weddings says a cascade of about seeing over table flowers and greens can be centerpieces or flowers romantic and elegant. getting in the way of photo Dance Floor Blooms moments.

Hanging floral pieces other transparent material, can add instant drama and flowers can be underfoot, make a large visual impact. creating a floral carpet.

Florists can hang flowers

Did you know?

While flowers certainly add beauty and a wonderful aroma to wedding ceremonies and receptions, there are other reasons behind their inclusion in such festivities. In ancient Rome, brides carried or wore flower garlands because the Romans believed flowers signified hope, fertility and new beginnings. In the Middle Ages, brides did not carry flowers, but rather strong-smelling spices and herbs. The rationale was that the herbs and spices would drive away bad luck and evil spirits. Flowers also served another practical purpose. In eras when bathing was a luxury, different flowers and herbs helped mask body odors. It wasn’t until the Victorian era, when flowers were used to symbolize romantic love, that they became part of wedding ceremonies, according to Modern Weddings magazine.

FARMINGDALE - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JANUARY 29, 2020 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Move over bouquets and centerpieces, flowers are taking over weddings in a big way. While wedding trends come and go, flowers will always have a place at the wedding table.

The blooms brides and grooms choose and how they decide to display them can say much about the couple’s style. Many modern couples are opting for statement pieces with their flowers to rival the big and bold ideas they’re incorporating elsewhere into their occasions, such as in cakes and clothing. In fact, floral designer Tom Uberuaga says traditional hurricane vase centerpieces are outdated and only focus the eye on the middle of the table. He prefers guests enter the wedding and have their senses stimulated by flowers from all angles.

Large flower installations, as well as blooms popping up in unexpected places, are some of the hot trends for couples to keep their eyes on.

two-versus-two robot stacking challenge. Team VEXistential Crisis made it to the semifinals, finishing seventh out of thirty-eight teams.

The tournament was a first for the Weldon E. Howitt Middle School Junior Dalers Robotics team, who, along with ten other middle schools, chose to compete at the high school game level.

“They had the choice to compete in VEX IQ with other middle school teams, or VRC,” said middle school teacher and coach Jess Zanco. “They decided to challenge themselves. I was blown away by the work they put in to get there. They’re already hard at work on a new robot for our next competition, slated for February 1, 2020 at Freeport High School. I can’t wait to see what they create!”

High School Robotics teams qualified previously for the championship. They will be joined by the Junior Dalers, who qualified by earning the Excellence Award during the Farmingdale competition.

Farmingdale’s robotics teams have consistently qualified for the Southern NYS VEX Championship and have advanced to the world championship for the past five years.

“We couldn’t do this without the extended Daler community,” said Ms. Grady.

“Proceeds from our registration fees will be used to fund a trip to our next tournament at Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Massachusetts, where our teams will work with and compete against teams from across the US and Canada.”

VEX Robotics was created

by The Robotics Education & Competition Foundation.

Their mission is to increase student interest and involvement in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) by engaging students in hands-on, afford- FHS ROBOTICS TEAM - From left to right: David Herber, volunteers Ricky able, and sustainable robot- Mortimore and Kayla Ho, Farmingdale High School Robotics team students Joannah ics engineering programs.

Celebrating The Chinese New Year Each year, millions of people across the globe celebrate a unique holiday that is rich in tradition, spectacle and pageantry.

The Chinese New Year, also known as the Lunar New Year or Spring Festival, is celebrated around the world, even by people who

do not trace their heritage back to China.

In China, Chinese New Year marks the end of the coldest days on the calendar and welcomes spring with new beginnings and the start of planting season.

This spectacular holiday follows the lunar calendar,

so there is no set date for the event. The Lunar New Year begins between January 21 and February 20 each year and lasts about 15 days. In 2020, the celebration begins on Saturday, January 25.

Fireworks are a large part of Chinese New Year festivals. According to

Chinese mythology, a monster named “Nian” would come about every New Year’s Eve, forcing people to hide in their homes. A brave boy fought Nian off using fireworks, and the following day the public celebrated their survival by setting off even more pyrotechnics.

Fireworks became a key component of celebrations from that point forward.

Some other traditions associated with the holiday include burning fake paper money and printed gold bars in honor of deceased ancestors. It is believed these offerings will bring fortune and good luck to ancestors in the afterlife.

Other customs include cleaning homes thoroughly prior to the dawn of the new year, welcoming family for

a big reunion and avoiding activities deemed to be taboo. Such activities may include hair cutting, using scissors and other sharp objects, arguing, saying unlucky words, or breaking things. Children receive money tucked inside of red envelopes to help transfer fortune from elders to younger generations. In addition to red envelopes, homes and decorations are adorned in red. The red color was purported to be instrumental in scaring away Nian and bringing about luck.

Another component of Chinese New Year is the Chinese zodiac. One animal represents the entire year, and there are 12 different animals. The animal a person is born under can help decide his

or her career, health and relationship status. 2020 is the year of the Rat. The Rat is associated with wealth and surplus and also is known to be a clever, quick thinker. The Rat is successful, but content to live a peaceful life.

The Chinese believe your ben ming nian, or the year of your zodiac animal, is the unluckiest for you because it is a rebirth year and a time when children can easily be taken by evil spirts.

Wearing red all year is a defense against this. Those born in 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, and 2008 are all born under the Rat. Chinese New Year is a spectacle that Chinese and non-Chinese alike can behold.

Farmingdale High School hosted their third annual VEX Robotics Competition on Sunday, January 5, 2020.

Close to eighty teams participated, comprised of high school and middle school students from across southern New York State. The purpose of the competition is to explore innovation through robotics, celebrate student accomplishments, and encourage friendly competition. The tournament was open to the public and admission was free. Nearly a dozen FHS alumni were on hand as volunteer referees and judges.

“It was a privilege to have so many of our alumni back home to help run this event,” said high school teacher and team coach Ann Grady. “Nearly all of them are pursuing engineering degrees and they really appreciate how their Farmingdale Robotics training prepared them for their studies and college engineering projects.”

Farmingdale High School has three robotics teams, two of which competed in the Tower Takeover game, a

Brides and grooms once felt compelled to conform to the trappings of traditional weddings.

From uberromantic vows to pastel colors to the penultimate white tiered cake, various wedding components were long considered musthaves. But modern couples are increasingly expressing their individuality, and even embracing more edgy and adventurous elements, when planning their weddings.

According to The Knot, a leading bridal resource and information site, today’s weddings are not what they were just a few years ago. Bold colors, exotic cakes and nontraditional foliage, are just some of the elements modern couples are embracing to set their weddings apart.

5 Ways To Cut Wedding Reception Costs

with your budget to provide cost-conscious options, like familiar comfort foods instead of gourmet fare.

2. Serve A Custom-Made Cocktail A themed drink, such as punch or a classic spirit with a reimagined, weddingfriendly name, can be less expensive than offering full open bar service. Some couples also opt to pay for only wine and beer rather than a full open bar that includes liquor and mixed drinks.

3. Book A Weeknight Weekend weddings are easier on guests’ schedules, but not on couples’ budgets.

Couples can save thousands of dollars by hosting weeknight weddings instead of weekend affairs. Book the venue from Monday through Friday, as even Sunday prices have escalated. The further away from the weekend, the lower the prices are.

4. Fake The Cake The Knot indicates a wedding cake runs roughly $530. Consider displaying a mock cake for photos and then serve a sheet cake during dessert hour.

Decorating foam tiers to look like an extravagant cake can save a few hundred dollars, and guests won’t know the difference when they’re biting into a delicious, less costly dessert.

5. Skip The Extras Reception venues may upcharge for all the little details, such as linens in custom colors or chair covers. If you can live without these extras, do so.

Ask for a list of itemized extras so you can assess what you want to pay for and what you’d prefer to avoid.

Wedding receptions are costly, but there are many ways to save money and still enjoy a memorable evening.

Weddings have a tendency to be expensive endeavors.

According to The Knot’s 2018 Real Weddings Study, the national average cost of a wedding is $33,931. Nearly half of that ($15,439) is spent on the reception venue alone.

As expensive as wedding receptions can be, couples should know that there are many ways to reduce reception costs without sacrificing fun.

1. Choose Foods Wisely Pour over the details of catering costs. The Knot says the average price for catering will be $68 per person. If you opt for an appetizers and cocktails reception, you may be able to shave several dollars off the bill. Look closely at the pricing for buffet versus plated meals.

Buffet service often means having a greater quantity of food on hand, which could drive up the cost. Find out if the catering hall can work

FARMINGDALE - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JANUARY 29, 2020 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

The Farmingdale School District is pleased to announce that after a year of planning, designing, creating new content, and migrating existing material, the new district website has launched!

In 2018, when Superintendent Paul Defendini took over the district, he promised transparency and multiple pathways of communication.

“Our newly designed website is just one example of how we are making information accessible to all members of the Farmingdale community,” said Superintendent Defendini.

“We hope that everyone finds it to be a valuable resource for obtaining information about our school district.”

“The new website was a team effort,” said Assistant Superintendent for Innovation and Organizational

Development Dr. William Brennan, who oversaw the whole process. “We had to pull multiple years of information from six schools and categorize it in an efficient way. We made sure the new site would be easy to navigate and provide users with a friendly viewing experience.”

The rebranded site is story-focused and contains more imagery. Along with an updated and colorful new look, the home page features large photographs that showcase student and faculty highlights. The site is categorized with six major topics: District, Board of Education, Schools, Academics, Resources, and Calendars.

Clicking on any of these links across the top of the site will allow visitors to access more detailed subpages.

The simplified design allows visitors to find

information quickly, such as important announcements or the latest school news. A series of quick links are featured in the middle of the home page, providing access to budget information, food services, district newsletters, the Farmingdale Public Schools Code of Conduct, and the Infinite Campus Parent Portal. Closer to the bottom is a roster of upcoming events, followed by links to the district’s six key initiatives.

The newly unveiled website is also “mobile responsive,” meaning the layout adapts to different devices and multiple web browsers. It was designed to fulfill web accessibility requirements under the American Disabilities Act, and enables individuals with vision, hearing, and physical disabilities to have access. Additionally, with the help of Google Translate, users are able to select another language in which to navigate the site.

The Farmingdale School District website averages about 200K visits per month. Administrators are hoping that the new design and content will increase visitor engagement as they look for the information they need. The website address remains www. farmingdaleschools.org.

Bridal 2020

Catering Wedding Menus To Your Guests’ Dietary Needs Gone are the days when wedding reception menus were limited to the one-sizefits-all offerings of meat, chicken or fish. Thanks to modern diets, couples hoping to accommodate guests may need to provide a wide array of food choices.

It is impossible to pinpoint an exact number, as there are no definitive surveys classifying all dietary preferences, but there are believed to be around 7.9 million people in the United States who follow a vegetarian-based diet. Of those people, around one million are strictly vegan, according to data in The Economist. In addition, NYU Langone Health says onethird of Americans are trying to avoid gluten. The Gluten Free Agency, which is a consulting group dedicated to helping advertisers, says some nine million people in

Did You Know?

(NAPSA)—The Lung Association says for some, quitting smoking is only half the battle. That’s why the Lung Association’s LUNG FORCE initiative and the Ad Council created the “Saved By The Scan” campaign, featuring a quiz at www.SavedByTheScan. org to help determine if you should get screened.

Canada are going gluten-free now for medical or personal reasons. Toss in the scores of people with peanut or other allergies and even more caution is needed when designing wedding menus.

Savvy couples who have guests’ health and comfort in mind recognize the importance of offering a varied meal plan for wedding-related parties and receptions. The following are some ideas to consider when planning wedding menus.

• Consider a buffet-style service. Although couples might like the tradition and flair that a seated/plated meal offers, it creates a much more limited selection of meal options. Buffet-style dinner service often provides couples with multiple choices, and it’s much more likely they can come up with a combination that caters to any food allergies or dietary

restrictions guests may have.

• Opt for food stations. In lieu of one long buffet table, a modern approach is to have staffed food stations. Foods as well as their ingredients can be clearly stated on food table placards so guests can make appropriate choices.

• Offer alternatives for dessert. Wedding cake can be a challenge to someone with a gluten sensitivity or an egg or a nut allergy. While not every guest indulges in dessert, make it a point to offer an alternative to cake.

Perhaps a groom’s cake can be revamped into glutenfree cookie bars or a nut-free trifle.

Couples who know in advance which types of dietary restrictions their guests have can work with caterers to devise a menu that suits everyone.

The Charity of the Month for January is: YMCA Long Island www.ymcali.org

The YMCA of Long Island is a leading non-profit organization that works daily to improve lives through programs and services that nurture youth, foster healthy living and inspire social responsibility.

Simply put, their mission is to improve the quality of life of children, adults and families through programs that develop body, mind and spirit.

The Y of Long Island has many different branches: East Hampton, Patchogue, Holtsville, Huntington, Bay Shore and Glen Cove. They also run the Boulton Center for the Performing Arts in Bay Shore and the YMCA Family Services (a counseling center) in Holtsville.

This January they kicked off their Annual Support Campaign, which provides scholarships to children, teens, adults, seniors and families in need.

These scholarships provide access to the YMCA for membership, programs and services such as swim lessons, pre-school, before and after school, summer day camp, health and wellness programs and chronic disease prevention and recovery programs such as LIVESTRONG® at the YMCA for cancer survivors, Moving for Better Balance, a fall prevention program, EnhanceFitness for people with arthritis and more.

The Y believes that when people come together for a common cause, the entire community is strengthened.

When someone becomes

a volunteer, they have the opportunity to share their blessings with those who need it most. You can take an active role in strengthening your community by volunteering at the Y! Volunteers can serve on their Board of Directors/Board of Managers/ committees, raise funds to ensure their organization is accessible to all members of the community, motivate and support youth, extend a hand to help adults who want to do more, be more or live healthier, advocate for their efforts and participate in opportunities to give back and support neighbors.

You can call 855.2YMCALI to get information on volunteering at a branch near you!

For additional information on the YMCA of Long Island, please visit www. ymcali.org.

If you would like your organization to be featured in this column, e-mail Noelle@SouthBaysNeighbor.com!

Make A Statement With Your Wedding Cake Brides and grooms may pour over every detail of their weddings, but few components of the festivities may be as fun, especially for foodies, as deciding what the wedding cake will look like. Couples who want to deliver show-stopping visuals often express some measure of their creativity and personalities through statement wedding cakes.

Many couples now eschew the classic three-tiered white cake in favor of a dessert that garners instant attention.

Whether the cake is brightly colored or hand-painted, a towering architectural marvel or shimmering in metallics, couples are opting to make a statement with their confections. Apart from clever cake-toppers, here are ways to stand apart when dessert is served.

• According to the Perfect Wedding Guide, a rising trend in cakes is to cover a white or naked cake with

translucent glaze tinted in the couple’s wedding colors.

This artistic expression can be especially stunning in boho-chic weddings.

• Statement tiers also are popular. The cake may be traditional in nearly every way, but couples then set the cake apart by featuring an elaborate design or a different hue in one tier.

• Martha Stewart Weddings advises that more than just color can be used to make a statement. Lifelike sugar flowers can really set cakes apart. Guests may not be sure if they can consume all aspects of some cakes, but delicate sugar flowers taste as good as they look.

• Hand-painted tiles on a cake are another way to add panache. A bride and groom may be inspired by a European vacation or the stained-glass effects of religious windows and want to add that feel to the tiers of the cake.

• Sometimes a statement comes by way of texture.

Even an all-white cake can be dressed up with interesting textural effects.

Ruffles, lace, embossing, and 3-D rosettes are different textural components that can be incorporated in cake designs.

• Couples also may want to tell their unique stories with cake. Individual tiers designed to reflect various milestone moments from the couple’s relationship can be quite engaging.

• Capitalizing on the trend of edgier weddings, couples may opt for darker hues on their cakes — even a black tier — or nontraditional geometric shapes to the cake itself or its design elements.

Statement cakes can really say something about the couple getting married.

Much like other wedding elements, cakes provide a window into the minds of happy couples.
