The happy couple's special day should be one to remember, and not for all of the mistakes that were made in the planning phase.
The man's not allowed to see the bride the day before the wedding, it's bad luck they say. It's tradition. For that matter, you've carefully hidden your dress from his view since you first bought it (showing everyone except him). In this way, the wedding becomes an extremely secret affair that seems to find joy in hiding things from the groom.
For instance, did you ever wonder why the garter toss is such a prevalent tradition at every wedding. At some point during the reception, the groom takes the garter off of the bride's leg and shoots it into a crowd of eager-or emotionally stagnant-men to fight over.
For that matter, why is it so important to hide your dress from the one person you want to see it most? Is it really a matter of bad luck, or do these traditions have deeper meaning lost to the history books?
It was rumored in older time that getting a piece of the bride's undergarments represented good luck for the future. Some would obtain it in hopes of good fortune throughout the year.
While a trendy dress may cost mega bucks, a bride will want to weight the need for the most expensive dress with the need to adorn herself beyond simply the dress.
Fathers would give away their daughters. The arrangement was made and the date was set, but the groom-to-be was not allowed to see his future bride until the day of the wedding.
Not only will the dress come out to be more than the one grand, what with taxes and alterations, but then the bride's fashion budget will have been blown on the dress alone, leaving no room for accessories, jewelry, hair ordainments, etc.
For one reason or another, this ceremony of "tossing out the garter" found its way to the wedding ceremony and became a tradition for the ages. To this day, men still gather together for the garter toss for good luck.
This good luck has everything to do with the ladies though as it is meant to help him get married. Like the bouquet toss, the one to catch the garter is expected to be the next in the party to marry.
Perhaps that's why they say love is blind. Up until the wedding vows were complete, blind was the only way love was sealed in marriage.
The occasional special request, like for the bride's bouquet, on flowers is acceptable, but if a bride and groom really wish to spend less on flowers they will plan according to the seasons to find the best deals.
The wedding has many traditions that are shrouded in history and superstition. What else can you think of that doesn't quite make sense?
Not only do these services offered by event planners and their wedding packages greatly reduce the stress of planning for the wedding, but they likewise will most often come in under budget and so allow the bride and groom to have a joyful and well planned wedding with little of the fuss of planning the wedding by themselves.
