The
Etiquette of Gift Giving
It
is customary to celebrate joyful events in life by,
among other things, gift giving. And weddings are absolutely
no exception! From the time the engagement is announced
until the last guest has left the wedding reception
with wedding favors, the gift giving opportunities are
abundant. Here are some general things to keep in mind
when receiving wedding gifts, engagement party gifts as well as giving attendant gifts, bridemaids gifts, groomsmen gifts, and wedding favors
during the wedding festivities.
• Engagement parties,
though not mandatory, are a wonderful way to announce
your upcoming nuptials. Guests invited to the engagement
party are not obligated to bring gifts.
• Wedding gifts can be sent out as soon
as guests receive wedding invitations. Most couples
register with two to three stores... Gift

Why
Wedding Favors?
Wedding
favors are thoughtful mementos given by the newlyweds
to their wedding guests as a symbol of gratitude for
sharing their special day. The gesture of giving wedding
favors can be traced back to ancient Rome and has become
a lovely custom in many cultures.
Sugar-coated almonds, or dragées, are traditional
wedding favors symbolizing the bitterness and sweetness
of married life. Other edible
wedding favors such as a piece of the groom's cake,
cookies
and chocolates have also been presented over the years.
Today, couples are being more creative with their selection
of party
& wedding favors, whether it's for the wedding
reception, the rehearsal dinner or the bridal
shower... Why

Cultural
Customs & Traditions for Weddings
In
a nation as rich in diversity as the United States,
it is not uncommon for couples to come from colorful
ethnic backgrounds. Many brides and grooms would love
to marry in the tradition of their native ancestors,
but being products of American culture as well, want
to have the white
wedding they've always envisioned. There is an abundance
of solutions to satisfy all of these desires. Bringing
culture
to a wedding is not only a fantastic way to share
something personal with the guests, but a sincere tribute
to the families who have come together...Cultural

Bridal
Shower Favors & Themes Typically
the job of planning a shower
for the Bride-to-Be falls on the maid of honor. But
it is just as common for all the bridesmaids to pitch
in. Legend has it the first shower was thrown for a
couple deeply in love, but lacking the money to marry.
Their friends and family got together and "showered"
the couple with gifts to help them start their new life
together. Today, the tradition lives, but it's more
of an opportunity for the bride to gather with her girlfriends
one last time before her big day! Some popular bridal
shower themes include pamper the bride, the honeymoon
and stock the bar...Bridal

Wedding
Invitation & Other Stationery Etiquette
For every special occasion
in life, especially involving your wedding,
stationery will help you communicate and share the
special moment with your loved ones. Wedding invitations
are your friends' and family's first opportunity
to participate in the special occasion. Beyond conveying
the theme of the occasion, printed wedding invitation
stationery also serves a more functional role by
communicating important details of the occasion
like the directions to the reception, where to stay
and what to wear.
Because printed wedding invitation stationery is
used to communicate information and convey themes,
it is important to understand proper etiquette.
We have collected some useful information to help
guide you through the process of using social stationery
appropriately for your special occasion. Wedding
