There are three key components for a bridal shower: refreshments, fun activities, like games or quizzes, and the bride opening her gifts in front of her guests. Although, classic etiquette state that the bride’s mother or sister is not supposed to host the shower, these days, numerous mothers and sisters do play hostess for these fun festivities and it is really a personal decision. You may find that a family relative offers to host a shower for you and a friend offers to host a separate, more laid-back bridal shower, where you can invite all your gal pals.

Organise the stag night. Or in Brian’s case, hen night as Brian insisted on inviting more girls than guys. It was actually a very civilised affair, walk in the countryside, few drinks in a nice pub, then a lovely meal with fine wine and champagne in the evening.
Minister and Groom enter usually from stage right. If the Groomsmen are not escorting the Bridesmaids down the aisle to the altar, they also enter together with the Minister and Groom.
It was a beautiful Saturday morning on January 6. The winter air was crisp and the view was amazing. The soft salty scent from the ocean filled the air. Off the balcony on the second story of the Long Beach Yacht Club I could see the light swells of the Pacific Ocean. The small crashing of waves added to the peaceful instrumental background sounds as the ceremony was about to begin. January 6, my wedding date, was a day that changed the rest of my life.
Lately every college student has been walking around talking about going to a party and turning up. Without knowing that college parties can be dangerous, one out of five girls will get raped or one out of five students will be drugged at a college party. That's two out of ten students getting hurt. That's not the only reason college parties are dangerous; they can lead to criminal activity, health concerns, and dropping out. College parties sound fun but they are really dangerous.
The engagement ceremony, which in Hindi is called a 'Sagai' is when the brides relatives visit the grooms house and perform a basic ceremony, in which they accept the boy to be engaged to the girl.

After this they would seek to be legally married at a registration office. It would be here that their wedding rings would be exchanged and an official wedding certificate would be signed and witnessed.

A laugh and a joke, a funny story and people smile naturally. Quite often I am asked which side does the Grooms button hole go. It's not about being the photographer, it's about being the go to wedding guy (or girl). Please do make sure, no matter how brilliant or how cheap your photographer is, that then have a personality that is easy to get along
...church, a courthouse, or a wedding venue. Both bride and groom exchange wedding rings and kiss before the witnesses and their families. Flowers are thrown at the newlyweds when they leave the place of ceremony. The banquet party happens in a restaurant where the bride’s and groom’s families, their relatives, and guests are sharing their joy and celebration. Dancing in the party is the loveliest part of the American wedding culture and happens at every American wedding. In addition, at the end of my husband’s coworker wedding party, I saw the guests enjoyed dancing happily around the newlyweds until late in the night to share the joy of happiness to the newlyweds.
