Wedding Invitation Etiquette: How to Address Your Guests
Nov 10th
Organizing your own wedding can be full of challenges. Because of these challenges, there are some things that are often overlooked. One of these things is the wedding invitation.
However, do you know that this is just one of the aspects of your wedding planning that should never be overlooked? In fact, this is often the very first thing that your guests will know of your wedding plans.
This is also the wedding aspect where problems first occur. So, to avoid unexpected oversights in your wedding plans, you may need to do a little research especially on wedding invitation etiquette.
The first part of the wedding invitation etiquette is the proper way of addressing your wedding invitation envelopes. Here are the basics:
1. Always use Miss for divorced female guests.
2. If it’s okay for your guest to bring a date, place the invitee’s name on the outer envelope and add “and Guest” on the inner envelope.
LikeWays to re-use bridesmaid dresses
Nov 9th
Bridesmaid dresses are just one of those items that you always vow to wear again, but never actually do. Most of these dresses end up stuffed in a closet somewhere gathering dust. Of note are those dresses that were a product of theme weddings.
But for those items which are borderline presentable, here are a few things you can do to make them ‘everyday chic’.
With the right kind of modification, you can even wear an old bridesmaid dress to the office.
CUT IT, CROP IT, CHOP IT OFF – One of the easiest things you can do to a bridesmaid’s dress is to cut the length of it. Turn a satin gown into a cocktail dress.
If you don’t use cocktail dresses that often, you can chop off the lower part of that dress and turn it into a skirt for the office.
Choosing the perfect wedding accessories
Nov 8th
You finally got your wedding gown as well as the headpiece or headdress to go with it. Now, you are just starting to look for the small pieces that would really make your look glamorous – the wedding accessories. As you know, the wedding accessories are those little accessories that make a big effect and impact on your outfit on your very special day. These are your gloves, shoes, undergarments and jewelry.
A smart bride-to-be will not underestimate the importance and the essence of the little details and will in fact give each detail a careful consideration.
How are you going to do it?
Here are the steps:
1. Match the jewelry to the style of your gown and headpiece or headdress. If your dress is a conservative style, it would be nice to go for conservative style of pearl, diamond or just a simple yet beautiful gold chain.
2. Try your accessories with your gown ahead of time.
This will give you the idea about what to change, what to remove or what to add.
3. Choose the wedding shoes after you have chosen and tried your wedding gown.
