Material are given to designate a wedding anniversary by their strength/quality

After 11years a wedding is as strong as steel

After 25 years it's purer, silver... and after 50years stronger/valuable etc Gold.

If you are all very friendly and on a first-name basis , and all the other employees feel the same and like and respect her as a fair and good boss, sure, why not?

If you think she is Cruella de Villes younger sister, then no, that would be hypocritical. Do RSVP in any case so she can plan accordingly . A lovely card is all tht is required. A small , tasteful, but inexpensive gift if you feel like it, but not mandatory. If she is rude enough to ask why you don't want to attend , there is no need to be specific . Just say you were otherwise engaged . She has no right to pry personal info out of you.

If I'm not mistaken, it could be different in other countries. But in America, or at least what I know is the left hand.(finger closest to your pinky). Could be different in other parts of America....

If you are a good friend and can't make the wedding you should give a little something. But if you weren't invited, this basically gives you no obligation to give. You could have a office gift pool, everyone throws in five bucks or something. Also, check out www.theweddingenvelope.com/calculator.php it is a wedding gift calculator, might help in future.

The wine toasting during weddings is a long-held tradition that evolved from the Greeks and then by the Romans. It was a gesture of good faith and to wish the guests happiness and health. The clinking of glasses was meant to ward off evil spirits.

• The bridal shower and the wedding are two different occasions. Yes, you do need to bring a gift to the wedding. Often brides go onto 'bridal registry' at several stores so you could phone her mother and ask what ones she is registered at. This way you can choose a less expensive gift or a mid-range gift. If you are financially strapped you could buy her fancy place mats (Pier 1 Imports has nice ones) with the napkins and ring holders; or some nice wine glasses.

That is a tradition of Chinese people on their wedding day.

But i t is the bride to wear a red dress

with the development of economy and culture there is no limit to this , so i think you can wear a red dress at a wedding .

• Most guests already know who the bride and grooms parents are and some weddings have a receiving line where guests congratulations the bride, groom and both sets of parents. If there is no receiving line then no, the bride and groom do not introduce their parents. The father's of either side may wish to make a toast to their new daughter-in-law or new son-in-law.

Hindu weddings take place generally at an open space under a decorated canopy called mandap.

Matron because maid is short for maiden which is a girl or servent that has never been married.

There are different colors of lilac and sage. Unfortunately, you have picked two colors that are going to be extremely difficult to match. Lilac is a beautiful color and can be in tones of mauve, pink/mauve, to deeper colors. I'd go with the lilac. You could introduce another softer color along with the lilac such as shell pink (extremely muted color.) You want to dress the bridesmaids in lilac and the groomsmen in sage, or something like that? I didn't know they made sage-colored tuxedos, but if you can find them it wouldn't be a bad combination. As for printing the invitations...no one would ever "match" those two colors in process, because it's almost impossible to hold screens that faint over a press run. Instead, you would run "spot color" lilac and sage. They're both in the PANTONE Pastel catalog. This is probably going to be an upcharge because most people don't keep the supplies needed to mix pastel inks, so they'll order the colors premixed from their supplier...at about $35 per pound versus maybe $6 for standard colors. Anyway, if you want those colors go for it.

A 35th wedding anniversary is certainly something to celebrate. Perhaps you want to throw a huge party and invite friends and relatives of the couple. You may also prefer to offer them a quiet get away for two as a gift.

Ebay has a lot of vintage items at reasonable prices

I guess it would depend where you live. In Los Angeles, I would try a store like the Paper Bag Princess on Olympic Blvd or a thrift shop on Melrose Ave.

Don't forget thrift stores and the salvation army. Many people don't know what to do with their bridesmaid dress so they donate it when they're cleaning out their closet. My town often has bridesmaids' dresses and prom dresses in the thrift stores.

It should cost as much as you want to spend on it. Engagement rings can cost anywhere from $500, $5000 to even $50,000. Factors such as the carat, color, clarity and cut of the diamond as well and whether it is made in yellow gold, white gold or platinum also have an impact on the cost.

* It is entirely up to the individual who is buying the gift. Often the bride-to-be will be registered at a store and you can pick a lower priced item or go to the medium priced item. Spend what you can afford, but pick the gift (no matter what the price) from the heart to congratulate that special day for the bride and groom. If you choose to give money (not often a good idea) then $50 - $60 is sufficient for a coworker.

The 35th wedding anniversary is traditionally the coral or jade anniversary.
