It is a meeting of the couple about to get married before the actual wedding ceremony starts. The wedding first look is meant to give the bride and groom a few moments alone before they are surrounded by dozens of wedding guests, relatives, friends, wedding venue staff, and vendors. They can share their feelings and emotions, be there for each other, ease the nervousness, and, by the way, see each other fully dressed for the wedding for the first time. The wedding first look takes place at the wedding venue where the ceremony will be held (church, wedding hall, outdoor locations, etc). You can have your wedding first look or skip it – both options are fine.

Popcorn is healthier than cakes or cookies and is a good choice for children. Also, you can offer a variety of sweet and salty popcorn tastes for your wedding guests.

Such wedding activities as tossing the bouquet and garter, cutting the cake, etc should be held at some point during the dancing, after the wedding dinner. But give your guests time to enjoy the dancing and tire themselves a bit. Then, ask them over for the wedding activities. Also, stick several activities together because each will take no more than 5 minutes. Don’t interrupt the fun of dancing for a 5-minute activity every now and then, better make one break and perform several wedding activities, after which let the guests go back to the dance floor.

Both pieces were always white (or light-colored – cream, ivory, etc) and very ornate, embellished with lace, embroidery, gold embroidery, openwork, or other decorations. Tunisian bridal bloomers were rather loose and had a serrated hem.

Indonesian weddings are known worldwide for their large numbers of wedding guests. People invite practically everybody they know, even if they’re not very close.

And actually, this can be easily explained – this country lives in poverty and such grand weddings, where there is plenty of food, help a lot of people survive. So, this tradition also survives throughout decades and centuries.

A thali is an Indian wedding chain. Originally, it was made from yellow thread and had a piece of turmeric tied at the bottom. Later, it became a gold chain pendant. It represents the god a certain Indian family worships and also displays the caste of the newlyweds. At one point during the wedding, the groom puts the thali around the bride’s neck to show to everyone that she’s taken. Three knots were tied on the thali to indicate the groom’s lifelong commitment to his wife. So romantic!

Moreover, you’ll have a dozen other last-minute issues. So, talk to your parents, friends, or relatives and ask them who will agree to help you with the DIY wedding florals. If you have no one to help, consider hiring a florist.
