INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Some venues either provide their own food and beverage or make you choose from a list of pre-approved vendors, but some have no restrictions whatsoever. Narrow down your budget for food and alcohol and then find a vendor that meets your needs.  Make sure your caterer has a license and liquor liability insurance (if they’re providing alcohol). Ask for references or get referrals from your friends who have gotten married in New Jersey. If you need to accommodate food allergies and restrictions, make sure your caterer can provide this service. Check out “extra” pricing: will your caterer provide chairs and tables? Cutlery and napkins? Find out exactly what is included in your package and what you are expected to provide independent of your caterer. If you’re going a more traditional route, you may decide to hire a florist to decorate your venue. If you’re looking to save a little money or infuse your own creativity into the process, you may choose to DIY your décor and spend the cash somewhere else.  Substitute white twinkle lights or ribbons for flowers. Use candles and feathers to create your own centerpieces. Choose a theme and use this to inspire your decoration choices. You can base your theme around your location (so if you’re getting married at the Jersey Shore, a nautical theme might be appropriate) or around interests that you and your partner share. Choosing a wedding dress (or suit) is one of the most exciting parts of planning a wedding. You want to pick something you love, that you can afford and that looks and feels great on your body. Look for dresses at local bridal stores in New Jersey, but don’t be afraid to venture outside the state.  New York City is easily accessible by New Jersey transit, so if you’re not finding anything locally, hit up the Big Apple for more options. Look online. If you find a dress you love in-state, but it’s too expensive, see if you can locate the same model for cheaper online. Custom order on Etsy. Etsy artisans are incredibly talented and chances are, one of them can build or design you the dress of your dreams. Utilize Pinterest. If you’re not sure exactly what you’re looking for, sites like Pinterest make it easy to browse other weddings and get inspired. Don’t rush in to buying a dress. Shop around and wait to find something you absolutely love.

SUMMARY: Choose a caterer. Plan your wedding décor. Figure out what you’ll wear.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: There are a variety of products that you can use to protect your safety while riding a horse. For example, helmets and pads can really help if you do end up losing your balance or are bucked off.  Wearing safety equipment is especially important when learning a new technique or riding skill, as you are more likely to get injured when doing something new. Avoid using equipment that is too old.  Some items lose their safety rating after a few years, such as helmets. Verify that the area you are using contains nothing dangerous in it. Check for holes and anything else that your horse could trip on. You also need a lot of space, as a galloping horse can more a long distance in a short period of time. This is important because it can sometimes be hard to stop the horse while it is galloping, especially if it isn't extremely well-trained.  A riding arena is not large enough to practice galloping in. You must find a bigger space. Consider going to a good-sized hill, as it is safer to gallop uphill. One reason for this is that it is harder for the horse to trip while going uphill. Although most horses will stop on their own before the edge of a cliff or anything like that, you don't want to take any chances. You want to adjust the stirrups so that you are able to stand up in the stirrups and clear the saddle. It may be counter-intuitive, but shorter stirrups actually provide a more secure position, as they encourage your heels to sink down. This is assuming you aren't riding bareback.
Summary: Wear safety equipment. Find an appropriate space where you can gallop your horse. Adjust the stirrups.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: We tend to feel more tired when we are dehydrated because our blood thickens, forcing your heart to pump harder to circulate the blood throughout your body, and this extra work by the heart tires us out.  Doctors recommend having 2 liters of water a day, or about 8 glasses. Soft drinks and coffee don’t count. You can also get water naturally through fruits and vegetables such as watermelon, celery, and broccoli. You’ll know you’re getting dehydrated if your urine turns from a pale, clear fluid (as it is when you’re well hydrated) to a darker yellow. Don't wait until you feel thirsty to drink. By the time your brain starts sending you signals, you’re already lacking fluids, hence the message of being thirsty. Drink regularly throughout the day to stay hydrated. Getting little bursts of carbohydrates and protein throughout the day will help you stay awake and alert. Plus, if you eat every 3-4 hours, you won’t have blood sugar crashes, which make you feel tired.  Eating breakfast really is the most important way to start the day, so don’t skip it. If you find you’re often on the run to work or school and don’t have time for breakfast, get into the habit of preparing grab-and-go options. Include fibre so you have the slower release of carbs that keeps you from crashing. Include popcorn, tortillas, or whole grain pitas in your meal and snack time, for example. Small meal examples that work include low-fat yogurt with berries and granola, a whole grain chicken wrap with greens, or apple slices with some peanut butter. It is generally recommended that you avoid caffeine after noon. When you live with chronic insomnia, this might be really hard to do so try to minimize it to 200-300 milligrams, or no more than 2 cups of coffee.  Decaffeinated coffees are not 100% caffeine free, so don’t be fooled. Energy drinks may not be a good choice. They have up to 250 milligrams of caffeine per serving and can increase your tolerance to caffeine, meaning you need more and more caffeine to feel the effects. They also have a lot of sugar and don’t actually provide any more energy than a regular soda. Although alcohol is often associated with partying and fun, it is actually a depressant that will drag you down and make you even more sleepy, make you restless at night, and increase your night-time waking.

SUMMARY:
Stay hydrated. Eat small meals regularly throughout the day. Enjoy caffeine responsibly. Avoid alcohol.
