What is the history behind Irish weddings and traditions?
Try checking out these websites. The first URL is a very good one. www.irishabroad.com/culture/traditions/ www.irishweddingsonline.com www.irishcultureandcustoms.com Irish weddings have several key traditions that can be traced back through history. Usually, these traditions have to do with religious beliefs and some element of superstition. Here is a quick outline of some traditions of Irish weddings:

They believed it was luckier to marry in April instead, and they had another rhyme about April weddings, "Marry in April if you can, joy for maiden and for man. * Horseshoes for Luck: Irish brides would carry horseshoes on their wedding day: they are thought to bring good fortune to the bride and groom. The horseshoe should be carried turned up, according to Irish tradition. * Music: Irish music is always featured at a true Irish wedding.

What is the best age to get married?
* Believe it or not more and more young people are getting married in their very late 20's into their 30's. Many like to go to college and get a career, while others love to travel.*1 Some may be working their way up the corporate ladder, while some seek fame and fortune.*2 It really is best to wait until your mid to late 20's to get married so at least you have had time to do things you really want to do in your life and also to get to know who and what you are really about. == == * It depends on when God says to get married and if God says it is the right time and the right person.
* If you have God in your relationship and you are well off enough to support the two of you no matter the age then and i believe only then should and two people's get married. ---And enough with God--- There is no "right age" or "best age" for marriage, but there are really 2 things you should think about. A) (and this should be a given) Be in love. If you aren't convinced that your girlfriend/boyfriend is the one, then don't get married. Make sure big issues like children are agreed upon between you and your spouse. If you want 2 children but your spouse wants 4, do not get married. Someone will have to compromise and that person won't be happy. B) Make sure your financials are good. Don't get married if you can't afford to move out of your parents house! Marriage is all about starting a new family, and you can't start a new family while still living in the same house with your parents. *1 If you wants to travel, then that isn't a problem. Travel together with your spouse and expand your horizons together. Things like travel help couples grow together and last together. Travel should not prevent you from getting married. It is still possible to travel and get married, and it may even be better to travel while married.
I guess you could. it depends what your fiancee says. Also, you might want to pick one dude and do some thing extremely special for the other one, Explain to the 2nd one that he is a great man and that you knew he would understand. Try not to rub in his face you chose the other man.

Is it disrespectful for a bride to wear a black wedding dress?
It is the bride's choice Really. I personally WOULD wear a black dress to my own wedding. It really doesn't matter what kind of dress you wear. but you also have to be careful with the people you invite. because they might think it is disrespectful. Usually brides go for the cream or white color dresses but it honestly is YOUR choice. But if people do criticize you just say "It is my wedding my dress so i can wear what i want!"(i personally would say that.) But dont let those people ruin your wedding day just because they said something.

As a wedding planner, I specialise in Destination Weddings. Planning a wedding 1000 miles away isn't as hard as you think, you just need to be very organised.
Before you complete and email/send any correspondance you need to make sure that you cover every single point and be very clear about what you want and don't want. The more correspondence you have the more likely there will be mistakes. If emailing always include the original email with your response. Always make sure that you get confirmation of all changes and all decisions.
Nearer the time reconfirm everything. Try to build a good rapport with the venue owners and other suppliers that you've hired and then make sure that they will be working on your wedding day.
You could try to hire a wedding planner in the area, who will step in a week or two before your wedding day (if you will still be away from the area) and reconfirm and visit your venue and suppliers to make sure that it is exactly as you have planned.
There are quite a few stores that sell wedding dresses, David's Bridal, J. Crew and Debenhams are a few. However, you may also look for pre-owned dresses, these can be much cheaper and you may find some unique styles that may normally not be available in stores. Many department stores also have a bridal section or department.
The proper etiquette asking for money instead of wedding gift?
Everyone likes to give gifts and there are a lot of people that do not give money. Have a wishing well at the reception for those that want to give the gift of money but also have a list or registry for gifts. If you have a stag/stagette or a Jack n' Jill you also make money there.
Do not be so eager to be greedy.

Typically the best way to find deals on designer wedding dresses is to wait for a boutique to have a sample sale (i.e. they are getting in new stock and need to make room) or do your due diligence online and shop around for the best price. One boutique I have come across is called www.bridecouture.com and they selling designer wedding dresses at Sample Sale Prices All Year Round! They even offer an at home service to try on up to 4 gowns if you don't live near by... Perfect solution if your not sure about a dress. Check them out.
