Wedding Planning

* Since you don't know the bride that well you could write at the bottom of the verse in the card: Wishing you and happy future together and may all your wishes come true. Best Wishes (Jane Doe) ... Sign your full name as shown in the example.

Most foods served in a langar is considered vegetarian but not vegan as milk, cheese and butter fats are almost always used.

• The mothers of the bride and groom should wear a corsage and it is just a nice idea to also give grandmothers a corsage to make them feel part of the wedding.

On average, three months in advance is good. However, if your wedding is going to be during peak wedding season (May-October) and/or on a holiday, you will want to order 6 months to 1 year in advance.

The maid of honor refers to a brides honor attendant who is not married. To were as the matron of honor refers to one who is married. The matron is usually a best friend or sister.

A great money saving tip for wedding favors is to double place cards as favors. Place card holders are so inexpensive and often are sold in bulk for low prices. You can get them for under 0.99 each and your guests will think you paid so much more. The place card holders also come in exquisitel picture frames as well. Just insert the table seating arrangement in the picture frame area and place at each individual table setting. Place a bow around it or wrap in clear tissue with a tag, etc.

Now, you will need an actual place card holder to tell your guests where they are seated before they enter the main dining area. One idea is to type up menus on nice paper and on the bottom type in bold their name and table #. You can arrange them in a fan or put them in alphabetical order with the name showing so they can find their name easily. You can also make a beautiful descriptive board with a diagram of the tables with the guest's name.

I have included a link below under Place card holders for a great selection! Good Luck!

Ladies first. Always.

At the bottom of the invitation , you put as follows:

Dress: Formal [ this would be long gowns for ladies and Dinner Jacket and tie for gentlemen]

Dress : Afternoon Formal [tea-length gown for ladies & dark suits & ties for gentlemen ]

Dress: Dressy Casual [anything you would wear to a fancy reataurant]

You don't want to go any further down the ladder unless you are having a Theme wedding .

I think that it is more usual for some friends of the bride or groom's parents to host a shower or some of the bride's girlfriends but it is not improper for the groom's mother to host one if she would like. If there are other showers being given, I would not do another one if I were the groom's mother. It is nice to have the groom's mother and the bride's mother just enjoy the showers as guests.

This is only the norm in 'western' societies. White traditionally signifies purety. The groom traditionally wears black.

In terms of federal agencies, it's important to know that NONE of them regulate financial planners, but there are probably a handful of small organizations keeping their eyes on things.

No, they cannot. The melting point of this ring is extremely high. Some retailers offer lifetime warranty against size or any damage.

We see both "couple's shower" and "couples shower" being used interchangeably and at about the same frequency. Grammatically, the correct term is "couples shower".

Yes. That would be proper, after all, you are not getting married.

The father of the groom. Men on the left, women on the right

My cousin got married in Vegas and knew that I would not be able to attend. She still sent me an invitation. In other words: just because they can't attend doesn't mean they won't want the courtesy and thought of an invitation to a friend or relative's wedding. They may want to have one just to save if they're close friends with the bride and/or groom. All the same, it would be a good idea to ask the person if they would like an invitation to keep before sending it out.

A bride can wear whatever colour dress she prefers. It is more traditional to wear a white or ivory dress.

If you decide that you'd rather wear teal then do so.

That just means you didn't grab on and she did. Don't sweat it - some people are more pushy than others. I had someone rip it right out of my hands because she was taller than I was. After that, I just stopped joining in the 'fun'...
