What are Capulet's real motivations for scheduling the wedding when he does?

He thinks it would look bad to have a large party given Tybalt's death. It would look as if they were not giving him the proper respect. Also when you decide Wednesday night to have a wedding on Thursday morning, you don't have time to make complicated arrangements.

Why is Friar Laurence in a cell?

In a previous scene, Capulet and Paris agreed that Paris should marry Juliet on Thursday at St. Peter's Church. However, it is the groom's job to make the arrangements with the priest, which is what he was doing at Friar Lawrence's cell. Romeo was the one to make arrangements with Friar Lawrence about his wedding to Juliet, as you will remember.


What indicates that Capulet doesn't intend to have a small quiet celebration as he earlier stated to Paris?

Well, they are rushing around trying to prepare a feast, and they do have some musicians on hire, which means it is going to be slightly larger than a JP affair. But consider. It is late, late Tuesday--probably in the wee hours of Wednesday morning, that they decide that the wedding will not take place Thursday as planned, but early Wednesday. How are they supposed to get the word out to the guests who all have their invitations for Thursday? They will be lucky if they can get the bridegroom and the priest to come.


How does Juliet insult herself to Paris in scene 1?

In Act IV Scene 1 Juliet meets Paris at the Friar's cell. Paris says "Poor soul, thy face is much abused with tears." She's been crying, he perceives (probably because he has been told as much by Capulet; Paris would not notice it if she had grown a second head). Juliet says, "The tears have got small victory by that, for it was bad enough before their spite." According to her, the marks of crying cannot make her uglier than she was.

Wedding invitations a small private ceremony should you invite you boss if you work in an office?

* This is strictly up to you. If work on a one to one basis with your boss and have a good working relationship then yes, it would be nice to invite him/her with a guest. If you choose to keep your private ceremony small then be sure you let your boss know in conversation that you are keeping the ceremony small with relatives present.

What are weddings like in Paris?

I'm an American Wedding Planner in Paris, and my agency specializes in bi-cultural, French/American-style weddings and celebrations. I'd have to say that one of the biggest cultural differences between American and French weddings is that while a typical American wedding usually lasts around 5 hours or so, a French wedding usually lasts all day AND into the next. It starts with a civil ceremony at City Hall in the morning, and is followed by a religious ceremony, then a vin d'honneur (a small cocktail reception), followed by a 4 or 5-course meal, and then dancing. The dancing often starts between dinner courses, in order to give guests a chance to work up more of an appetite! A typical French wedding doesn't end until 3:00 or 4:00AM, or even later. That, for me, is one of the biggest differences of a French (Parisian) wedding.


Is there a charge for a wedding ceremony in a Catholic Church?

Yes, and it depends on the parish - usually it is a small fraction of the weddiing reception cost. In my area $300 is typical, but others may be more or less


In scene iv what does Capulet tell Paris?

In Act 3 Scene 4, Lord Capulet discusses Juliet's marriage with Paris, along with Lady Capulet. Lord Capulet relays his concerns of Juliet staying cooped up in her room, grieving the loss of her cousin, Tybalt, who has been slain in battle against Romeo. Lord Capulet decides to confirm their marriage to each other (Juliet and Paris) to help her take her mind off the death of Tybalt. He suggests Wednesday, but changes his mind to Thursday as he feels Wednesday would be too soon (it is currently Monday). Lord Capulet decides for the marriage to be a simple one among a small group of audience. (note how Lord Capulet arranges everything for Juliet and does not take into consideration her opinion on the matter. He also confident Juliet will agree to the marriage, showing how he knows very little about the daughter whom he supposedly treasures, as he is unaware of her marriage with Romeo, and the fact they even consummated while holding this conversation) Paris wishes the following day were Thursday to express his excitement for his marriage before bidding the Lord and Lady farewell.
