What Are the Most Important Items of Clothing at a Traditional British Wedding?
Well, for a start the bride has to be wearing some sort of variation of white. Some unconventional brides like to buck the trend and wear red or even black, but at a traditional wedding the bride will be wearing, at the very least, ivory. The historical reason for this is to show "purity", but at a modern traditional wedding I believe the main reason that the bride wears... (posted by Hasim 1 year 107 days ago.)

Your Comfortable Wedding Shoes
If you ask a married woman if there is any one thing she would have done differently at her wedding, she is highly likely to say the following statement: "I wouldn't have done anything differently, expect maybe to have worn more comfortable shoes". When planning a wedding outfit, style, beauty and originality tend to be the main concerns. However, by the end of a very long day, once the ceremony has taken place, once...

The Importance of Flowers at a Wedding
If you are planning a traditional wedding in Britain, and you are keen to see to all the details while remaining within a budget, one thing you will have to consider early on is the florist bill. Flowers can bring so much to a situation or event. Think of a garden with nothing but a well tended lawn, and then think of the same garden with an abundance of flowers round the edges of that well tended lawn. It...

Memories of a Traditional Austrian Wedding
One of my favourite weddings was in Austria in a tiny village in the mountains. The eldest daughter of the local vicar was marrying her childhood sweetheart, a young doctor. They were a beautiful couple. The bride had long dark flowing hair, in which she wore flowers, and the groom wore a traditional Tyrol dress suit and a small bow-tie. There were many things to love about the wedding. Firstly the... (posted by Hasim 1 year 108 days ago.)

Something Borrowed, Something Blue Worn on Your Wedding Day
Most people have heard of the old tradition that the bride should wear "something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue". This is a centuries old tradition and is meant to bring the bride all the luck in the world. But did you know that each of these four things is meant to represent different types of luck? "Something old" represents links with the past and the good... (posted by Hasim 1 year 108 days ago.)

Indian Bride - Indian Pride
When I got married in the year 1978, thirty two years ago, my bride was wearing a traditional Indian dress. She was very proud to have her dress designed and styled in India, she was wearing Ghagra (skirt) choli (blouse) in white, her blouse was made of white silk with lots of embroidery. Her dupatta (head covering) was made of lots of heavy work. It was exactly what she wanted, and she wore her dress with pride. Her matching... (posted by Hasim 1 year 135 days ago.)
