Wedding Practices American Style
Residing in the United States makes one feel liberated - in
other words free to do whatever you want, free to live your
life, freedom of love, and free to make your own choices
allowing you to break all traditions. There are a great many
practices still adhered too; some people find tradition hard to
cast aside. Here are some distinct western touches:
The yanks have a fantastic unique way in personalizing their
weddings which means giving priority over engagements which are
not traditionally celebrated in a way that it is in some
countries.
Old fashioned original down on bended knee marriage proposals,
the better they say.
Wedding preparations start with the engaged couple visiting
parents/family informing them of their engagement.
Engaged couples intend to invite more friends along to their
engagement party than that of the wedding, because engagement
parties cost a lot less than any planned wedding reception.
Light snacks on the menu will be just that, light e.g. cocktails
and hors d'oeuvres. To make the wedding day cost effective
couples will ask more colleagues and friends to the engagement
party therefore less to cater for if on a tight budget on the
day they tie the knot.
Bridal shower preparations are given by the maid of honour and
bridesmaids. A bachelor party is certainly on the cards for the
groom to be. One tradition I think that will never be cast
aside. Drinking should be consumed in moderation; you need to be
steady on your feet when taking those vows.
A good idea is to make sure all wedding invitations include
response cards this way guests will let you know if they can
attend. Wedding invitations are usually sent within 4/6 weeks
before the occasion.
Rehearsal dinners are sometimes carried out with wedding party
guests who come from far away places to attend the wedding
practice. Word has it that the groom's parents foot
the dinner
bill cost.
The bridal luncheon is hosted for the bride's attendants on the
wedding day itself. However, time may not allow this to be part
of the routine on the wedding day. This also apply's to the
groom and groomsmen.
Religious ceremonies are very popular with the Americans even if
they hold know religious beliefs. How ever problems can arise
when a couple gets married from different faiths or religions.
The feeling where bad luck prevails if the groom should see the
bride the day before is still upheld in many parts of the world,
the yanks are adamant in keeping to the rules and comply with
this voodoo curse as some would see it, so the groom bides his
time and takes notice when the bride walks down the aisle.
Still in practice the groom and groomsmen make their entrance
into the chapel through a side door. Brides are still given away
by dad sometimes by two males if they have a stepfather.
Formal receptions usually have a bridal table where the couples
and their chosen attendants sit. As guests arrive for the
reception food and drinks are served on entry.
Gift lists are on show for the guest thus making it easy for
them to choose the right present for the happy couple. A
fabulous idea to say you thank you for all gifts received is to
send personalized notes to all the guests who attended.
The choice is yours whether you stick with tradition or not but
one thing that does not change in the eyes of an American is
that most take their vows very seriously "For better or worse,
'til death do us part." is still common in American wedding
practices.
