Town of Babylon Supervisor Rich Schaffer and Councilmen Terence McSweeney and DuWayne Gregory recently gathered with Animal Shelter Director Chris Elton and the Town’s companion dog Trigger to celebrate the amazing outcome of the Betty White challenge.

As a result of the challenge, The Town of Babylon Animal Shelter received nearly $5,000 in checks and a substantial amount of goods donated.

Animal shelters across Long Island raised thousands of dollars in this celebratory fundraising campaign created through social media. It’s been reported that the challenge raised close to $99,000 in

donations on Long Island and $12.7 million across the country.

Iconic actress Betty White passed away just weeks before her milestone 100th birthday, and as a result people on social media wanted to celebrate her and her love of helping animals in need. The Betty White Challenge was created to celebrate her birthday by asking people to donate to an animal shelter of their choice on January 19th.

“Thanks to the Betty White Challenge, the Babylon Animal Shelter took in so many donations in such a short period of time, we were amazed and overjoyed. We received chew toys, leashes, collars,

dog food, cat food, treats for dogs, treats for cats, beds for all and so much more. In addition we received nearly $5,000 in checks and gift certificates all of which will go toward the care of the cats and dogs of Babylon,” said Animal Shelter Director Chris Elton.

“On behalf of the Babylon Town Board and all of our friends at the Animal Shelter, thank you to the residents of Babylon who once again demonstrated their tremendous generosity by participating in this historical challenge in memory of Betty White,” added Supervisor Rich Schaffer.

What Goes Into A Microwedding

NORTH BABYLON - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 2, 2022 • WWW.LONGISLANDMEDIAGROUP.COM

share their big day with their closest friends and family members.

The WPI has urged wedding planners to offer microwedding packages in an effort to capitalize on this emerging trend. Data from The Wedding Report indicated that the total number of weddings would rise to 2.77 million in 2021, an increase of roughly 650,000 over the yearly average. Even if only a fraction of couples who tie the knot in 2022 opt for a microwedding, a preexisting microwedding package can help wedding planners secure their business. Couples who opt for microweddings may do so to save money, but also to avoid the effort and save the time required to plan more lavish affairs. Such couples may be especially excited to work with wedding planners who can plan their weddings regardless of how small the Microweddings are not necessarily a affair may be. new trend, as couples have always had the option of getting married with only a small number of family and friends in attendance. However, microweddings Nothing should be off the table could be an emerging trend, and cost may have a lot to do with that. when planning a microwedding. The The Wedding Planner Institute notes fewer the people who will be there, that microweddings cost anywhere the more freedom planners and from $1,600 to $10,000, though the couples may have. The WPI notes that group notes that most microweddings microweddings afford planners and fall somewhere in the middle of couples the chance to get personal in that range. A 2020 survey from TD ways that may not be possible when Ameritrade found that 47 percent of organizing larger affairs. Planners respondents felt that cost of living was can focus on small details and allow the biggest threat to their financial couples to make their ceremonies security and long-term investments. and receptions as personal as they Engaged couples confronting the would like. Couples who prefer well-documented post-pandemic microweddings tend to emphasize increase in cost of living, including minimalism, so keeping things simple an unprecedented rise in housing is something to keep in mind when costs, could see expensive weddings planning microweddings.

Microweddings are an emerging as luxuries they simply can’t afford.

Microweddings could be viewed as a trend that make for a realistic option cost-effective way to combat the rising for couples and the people they hire to cost of living that still allows couples to help them plan their big day.

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have been far-reaching.

People from all walks of life have had to confront the pandemic and the changes it wrought, and many of those changes could have some staying power.

Wedding industry experts note that one of the more noticeable and potentially long-lasting effects of the pandemic has been the rise of microweddings. The 2020 Real Weddings Study (COVID-19 Edition) found that 58 percent of couples who planned to get married in 2020 ended up reducing their guest list by a significant percentage. The average reduction was 41 percent, and some suspect small ceremonies may be the new normal in the years ahead.

Make Party Hosting A Breeze

Entertaining is a great way to show good will and friendship to others and to celebrate special occasions.

Many people can successfully throw parties, but hosting a great party takes a little extra effort. By following some tips, hosts can ensure their next party is one to remember.

Stick To A Theme

Many party hosts find that themes help in the planning.

Themes make it easy to coordinate invitations, decor, food, and music. Guests also may enjoy dressing up according to the theme.

Make lists regarding which foods you plan to cook, what you need to buy, who you plan to invite, and any other details that are floating around in your head. Getting things on paper and checking off the list can help keep things moving.

Have A Seating Plan

Have ample seating available and consider assigning seats at formal affairs so guests can sit next to friends or like-minded fellow invitees.

A REAL CONNECTION At PSEG Long Island, we are committed to keeping you informed this storm season and that starts with our dedicated customer service teams. We have expanded our call center and social media capacity, so you experience shorter wait times and stay connected before, during and after every storm. It’s just one of the many commitments we’re making this storm season—we’ve never been prouder to power Long Island.

Do As Much You Can In Advance

When hosting at home, spend the day prior to the party getting the house in order and making any food if the party will not be catered. If it will be catered, confirm with the catering company the delivery time and firm up any other details.

You’ll be far less frazzled if you space out your tasks than trying to squeeze them in a few hours before guests arrive.

Expect Early/Late Arrivals

Some people just aren’t punctual. Some may leave home too early and arrive well before the party starts, while others think “fashionably late” is showing up long after the party starts. Have some easy-to-grab snacks so that early and late guests can munch while you finish your tasks.

Stick To What You Know

A dinner party or other event may not be the best time to get creative. Lean on recipes you’ve made before and can guarantee correct timing and flavor.

Picture Perfect Wedding Day Photography Tips

Few things document weddings more effectively than photographs. Carefully curated wedding albums and portraits hung on walls serve as daily reminders of a couple’s special day.

Photography is often left in the very qualified hands of professional photographers. However, couples can pitch in to make their photos really pop. These picture pointers from industry insiders can help couples put their best smile forward.

Enlist A Family Photo Coordinator

Leave Ample Time

Delve Into The Details

A carefully orchestrated timeline can ensure photos are the best they can be. Why? Because a couple who is relaxed and not overwhelmed will notice that attitude translates to their photographs. When planning wedding timelines, couples should leave ample opportunities for getting dressed, chatting with the wedding party and going through various photography settings to grab great photos, advise the experts at Martha Stewart.

NORTH BABYLON - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 2, 2022 • WWW.LONGISLANDMEDIAGROUP.COM

Play Your Style Safe

A wedding day is not a time for the bride or groom to try a dramatic new style, according to photographer Amanda Lamb. Resist the urge for a daring cut or color. It’s also likely not the place to try out new facial hair or heavy makeup. A couple unaccustomed to the way they look may be shy in front of the camera.

If the photographer does not have his or her own assistant, recruit someone who is assertive to help wrangle everyone for the family shots. Attempt to get family photos when family members are relaxed but not too far rumpled by dancing or having a good time.

Prepare wedding details, like gowns, shoes, accessories, etc., in advance to save time once the photographer arrives, suggests Desi Mendoza, a pro from Dez and Tam Photography. Invest in a beautiful hanger for the wedding gown as well, because you may want to photograph that on its own.

Put Together A Short List

The photographer will have his or her ideas of which shots to cover, but a couple with specific goals in mind should relay that information to their photographer.

For example, if a grandparent is getting up in years, request some solo photos of that person so you can look back on happy times together. Certain couples want to be snapped posing with a beloved pet. Putting that on the list helps ensure it will happen.

Learn To Pose

Couples can practice posing in front of mirrors to get a feel for body positions that put them in their best light. A photographer’s advice in regard to posture is invaluable as well. Create space between arms and the body and learn how to angle the body so you look your best.

Photos will capture wedding day memories forever.

Couples can put themselves in the best positions for success by following some photography guidelines.

Your Guide To Hosting An Elegant Dinner Party

and small receptacles for housing garnishes, such as lemon slices or maraschino cherries.

Hosting at home requires attention to detail.

Choosing the right accessories and accoutrements is part of setting a formal dinner party scene and creating an inviting atmosphere. The following approach can serve as a guide for men and women as they prepare to host a formal dinner party.

Practice A Proper Table Setting

The art of a properly set table may have fallen out of favor, but it’s one thing that may impress your guests the most. You’ll need specific settings for formal events, and there are plenty of online tutorials offering advice from etiquette experts. Invest in a new tablecloth to serve as an impressive base for the beautiful table settings.

Send Proper Invitations

While many people have grown accustomed to the convenience of evites, nothing conveys the formality of an event better than a traditional paper invitation.

Find invitations that match the tone of your dinner party, whether semiformal or formal. This will help set the tone and let guests know what to wear.

Assess Your Serviceware

Take inventory of the types of dishes, glasses, silverware, and serving platters you have. If items don’t match or you do not have enough matching items for all guests, consider purchasing or renting items so everything matches. Plan ahead so you have enough dishes for the courses you will be serving without having to wash items in between.

Limit Your Courses

It is better to do one or two courses very well than stretch yourself thin trying to impress guests with a multitude of courses. Choose dishes that you’ve made before and have had success with. Avoid foods that

Set Up A Fresh Flower Arrangement

Whether you prefer a large table centerpiece or smaller bud vases all along the table, fresh flowers add appeal and aroma to a space. Think about complementary flowers in the living room or in the require major preparation or attention while guests restroom as well. Flowers are an added touch to are present. make formal dinner parties more special.

Know Your Bar Needs

Different drinks call for different glasses and tools for preparation. Therefore, offer a few signature drinks and stock the items that will be needed for them. Red and white wine glasses, coupe glasses, martini glasses, single rocks glasses, and double oldfashioned glasses are some of the most common to have on hand. You’ll need stirrers, cocktail shakers

Purchase A Sensational Sweet

End the meal with a special dessert. Find those singular places in the town or city where you live that are known for their desserts. Intricately decorated cakes or pastries will have a wow factor.

Attention to detail and thorough planning are keys to hosting elaborate dinner parties.

The Charity of the Month for February is

Family & Children’s Association www.fcali.org With locations across Nassau and Suffolk, Family & Children’s Association (FCA) is a not-for-profit organization that is dedicated to providing help and hope to Long Island’s most vulnerable children, families, seniors and communities. FCA envisions a Long Island where a legacy of optimal health, educational success and economic security passes from one generation to the next; each year it serves 30,000 individuals and families in Suffolk and Nassau counties. Its mission strives to make our island a better place for all of us to live, work and raise a family.

FCA has served Long Islanders since 1884 and today its more than 40 programs fall into five big areas of need: Addiction Prevention, Treatment & Recovery Taking on addiction from every angle, beginning with prevention. Recovery support services are offered Islandwide with offices from Hempstead to Westhampton Beach.

PUZZLE ANSWERS:

Children’s Mental Health & Wellness This division offers an array of services and supports designed to promote the health and wellness of children and their families. The services are for individuals up to 21 years of age who have or are at risk of developing a mental health diagnosis. Services are always free to clients, voluntary, family-driven, strength-based, and culturally competent, with location and scheduling tailored to each family’s needs. They also provide support for the families of individuals with mental and/ or behavioral health issues.

Prevention & Family Support FCA’s prevention team provides critical services to at-risk children and families including a nursery co-op program,

alcohol and substance abuse and gun violence r e d u c t i o n program, and more, through collaboration, education, and advocacy.

Residential Care FCA operates four residences that focus on quality care, seamless transitions and well-managed aftercare services for youth. Nassau Haven and Walkabout provide emergency shelter and longer term transitional housing for homeless, runaway and trafficked youth. Two other residences support children and young adults with serious emotional disturbances or mental health issues.

Senior & Adult Services FCA believes that every senior deserves to live with dignity, safety and independence. FCA helps more than 10,000 seniors a year with meal deliveries, caregiver support, home visits for companionship, elder abuse prevention and advocacy.

The number of people who turn to FCA for help is growing and with it, the need for donations to close gaps in government funding. FCA’s programs and services are greatly enhanced by the involvement of others, whether through donations of time or money, and welcome the help of all Long Islanders to further its mission. Therefore, if you would like to get involved with this organization, you can!

Stay tuned for next week’s article to learn about ways you can give, such as Mission Moment Scholarship Fund, Legacy Planning and Giving Tree, along with Adopt-A-Family and volunteer opportunities!

Local not-for-profit organization, Heroes Among Us joins with the United Veterans Organization of Nassau County and local Veterans of Foreign Wars groups, and the Nassau County Executive’s office to build a monument in Eisenhower Park to honor all post 9/11 servicemen and women. The monument will join other memorials in Veterans Memorial Park which honor veterans who served in World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. The Iraq/Afghanistan Veterans Monument will be the only monument of its kind on Long Island and one of the first in New York State honoring the courage, dedication, and bravery of United States servicemen and women who fought in military conflicts after 9/11.

Over this twenty-year period, 7,000 servicemen and women died in battle and 30,000 post 9/11 veterans have died by suicide. The monument will provide a permanent reminder of their service and provide a much-needed sanctuary and reflection space for veterans along with their families.

“We are excited to have the assistance from our

community to properly respect and honor our veterans in building this monument, which we feel was overdue,” said Virginia Cervasio, founder of Heroes Among Us. The estimated cost to build the monument is $150,000 and all the groups involved are currently working to raise the needed funds. To date, over $20,000 has been raised, with $130,000 still needed to build the monument. To donate to the Iraq/Afghanistan Veterans Monument, please visit www.heroesamongus24. org/monument or

for 12 Mos.
