Over the years Chanteclaire couples have teased me about my obsession with toasts and speeches. I can be harsh about them, and until the wedding day, no one quite understands my concerns. But then that moment comes, when the Maid of Honor or Best Man stands up and the glorious mood guests are in starts to circle the drain. Please indulge me as I guide your toast and speech makers a bit in order to avoid this warm moment becoming a tragedy.

The wedding industry is still largely made up of solopreneurs. It’s a creative, independent group of wildly enthusiastic people. They are happier than the stereotypical corporate worker, because they are forging their own way in an industry they genuinely love.

Weddings are great opportunities for people to gather and celebrate the melding of two families into one. Weddings are a melting pot, and while the ultimate goal is for all guests invited to mingle and have a good time, preexisting relationships may cause some wedding-day interactions to be strained.

Making the important decision to get married can fill couples with joy and excitement as they imagine spending the rest of their lives together. Naturally, brides- and grooms-to-be are anxious to share the good news with others and include family and friends in the festivities. One way couples exemplify inclusion is by asking their closest acquaintances to be part of their wedding parties.

Because fashion preferences were once ornate and dependent on precise fits, ready-to-wear clothing really did not become widely available until the early 20th century. Such attire is now available in just about any retail store.

Wedding guests will remember many aspects of the ceremony and reception. For guests who have food allergies or require specialized diets, dinner can be memorable for all of the wrong reasons. But it doesn’t have to be.

Weddings take place throughout the year, but some months have traditionally proven more popular times of year for happy couples to tie the knot.
Summer was long known as the most popular season for weddings, but that trend has shifted in recent years.

Champagne is a vital component of many special occasions, such as anniversaries, retirement parties and weddings.

Many couples now eschew the classic three-tiered white cake in favor of a dessert that garners instant attention.

Various components combine to make weddings beautiful and memorable. Couples rely on photographers to capture the smiles and moments that helped make their events unique and to ensure the big day is remembered for years to come.

The question was popped; the engagement ring presented. What’s the next step on the road to the wedding? Saving should definitely be on couples’ minds.

Grooms are often content to let their brides-to-be shine on their wedding day. But weddings are a showcase of the two people getting married and grooms matter!
Grooms can take steps to look handsome and polished, but may wonder what they can do to put their best feet forward when all eyes and cameras are facing their way.

Wedding terminology that can help couples make more informed choices:

• Blusher: A short, single-layer veil that covers the bride’s face before the ceremony.

• Boutonnière: A single flower bud worn by the men in the bridal party.

Making a wedding guest list is seldom an easy task. Couples often find that many people are worthy of an invitation, which can make creating a guest list tricky for those with budgets in mind.

Holidays are conducive to festive atmospheres. Whether it’s seasonal celebrations for Christmas or Chanukah or summertime soirees on Fourth of July or Labor Day weekends, there’s no denying festive vibes tend to prevail when holidays turn up on the calendar.

Weddings join the lives of two loving individuals so they can share their future with one another. Some weddings adhere to themes that are designed to make an impression and showcase couples’ personalities. Floral arrangements are key components of wedding themes, as they help to establish ambiance at both the ceremony and reception.
