However, wordS,you've written yourselves may hold special meaning. Get inspiration on what to say While the bride-to-be is busy with a myriad of details, the groom-to-be, too, should be preparing for his big day!

At that time, the groom should order the bride's engagement and wedding rings start making out his guest list, select his ushers - and best man, arrange to see whoever will be officiating at the wedding, and begin discussing honeymoon plans with his fiancee. THREE MONTHS Three months before the wedding, the guest list should have been completed and given to his fiancee so invitations can be sent out in time. At this point, wedding attire should be ordered, and the groom should discuss wedding attire with his attendants. ONE MONTH One month in advance, the groom should order flowers, for the bride, both mothers' corsages * and boutonnieres for the men in the wedding party. He should also select c presents for the bride and his attendants, order gloves and ties for ushers (making cer-tain, of course, that they have ordered their own at-tire)' and see that all necessary documents - are in order.

A Kitchen .Showerfor Th-e Bride? If you've been invited to a kitchen shower, here are some ideas for gifts that are not as likely to be re peated as the usual pots or pans: - • Kitchen shears are handy for trimming veg= etables or opening up thoie stubborn '-plastic bags. • Baskets are ideal for hOlding assorted kitchen gadgets, while dressing up the premises. • A decorative rack for hanging pots and pans is espicially welcome if the new bride's kitchen is shorton space. • A timer will alert her when it's time;!o take out the muffins or add veg- etables to the roast. • Molds for baking or fOr gelatin salads are "musts" for ;every well- equipped kitchen. - • A charming cookie jar is something no kitchen should be without! 1311132:MUMXICO Modern Showers Today, more and more young people -wait until they have a year or so of being on their own before getting married, and many have already acquired most of the home equip-ment they need. Conse-quently, modem shower-planning is much more fun, as themes switch to-focus on the personal interests of the couple. Here are a few ideas if you're planning a shower in near future: How .about a literary shower? Setting up a home library can be an expensive venture, and you'll be doing the bride and dOom a big favor,, Books" are lasting gifts that serve as tokens of your,good wishes for years to cdme. Along_ the same lines, a musical shower might be a good idea, depending on the interests of the couple about to be married. You can ask everyone to bring records—jazz, classical, humorous or rock. If you know that the couple is planning a trip to a foreign country, or has an interest in a particular culture, you might want to give language-learning records and tapes. A shower themed around sewing is anotheridea. You can equip the bride with special patterns, unusual fabrics, heavy duty shears, threads, rib-bons, trimmings — maybe even a sewing machine! Entertaining Gift Idea Those newlyweds could use a set of handsome snack trays for casual meals in front of the TV or for holding snacks at par- ties. Kitchen Gifts You're invited to a kitchen showet for a girl who's had her own apart- ment for sometime.

He is the person to whom everyone else will turn to make sure things are running smoothly. He has a myriad of duties on that most special of special days. all of which will take the burden off the bride and groom and their families. Traditionally. his functions encompass: • Keeping the wedding rings safe until the proper moment arrives and if there's a ringbearer making sure he -follows his -instructions pro- - -perly. • Helping the grobm'ready himself and accompanying him to the wedding, arriving at leaSt a quarter cif an hour in advance; • Taking the luggage of both bride and groom and the groom's going-away clothing to the reception hall; • Having.the clergyman's or judge's lee ready on the wedding day, and presenting it at the appropriate time; • Having 'marriage license on wedding. day; • precking `honeymoon ar- rahgements and ccInnections, and making sure groom has all necessary tickets and docuMents before the newly weds set off together; • Acting as toastmaster at the bridal table, and assisting the newly married couple to get away at the. right time. mins. • Many woks come with a set of utensils used for stir-fry cooking and recipe books are available on wok cooking. How often have you roasted a chicken or a piece of beef only to have it come out dry and over-cooked? Using a high-dome clay roasting pan will eliminate that prob-lem. The dome cover of the clay pot allows the cooksto cover the chicken or roast so that it cooks in its own juices and mois-ture is retained. Potatoes, carrots and other vege-tables can be added to the roast and cooked with it. Slow cookers are also ceramic pots with a built-in electric heating element. Like the clay roasting pan, they allow meat and vege- tables to cook slowly in juices or gravy. 'Most cooks put the ingredients into the slow cooker early in the day, set the desired cooking temperature and forget about it until meal- time. This is a great gift for the working' wife who wants to prepare whole- some meals for her family. Other popular kitchen gifts include waffle , makers, hamburger mak- ers and egg poaching pans.. Think Small In Gifting! Most Marriages start out, with big hopes and big plans for the future. That is as it should be! Too often, though, marriage also starts out with the happy couple encumbered by too many "big" gifts —items that create a space problem in an apartment. Since apartment living is cv the way in which the ma-jority of couples begin, it is a good idea to think in terms of dimensions when shopping for a wedding or shower gift. Apartment kitchens You're home from your hon-eymoon, the suitcases are un-packed. and . . the washload seems foreign and immense. You know how to care for your own laundry. but the bundle before you is doubled—full of unfamiliar male undergarments. shirts and slacks_ Don't let romance dissolve into tears and a hysterical phone call to your mother. Although doing:more wash is not thrilling, you can handle it. Unisex clothing reinforces the fact that what you and your hus- band wear—although different in size—is virtually the same with their limited counter and storage space can be woefully small. It's wise, 'then, to select appliances that are not only compact, but can- perform more than one function. and, therefore, requires similar treatment.'- Follow the basic laundry propedutes: • Sort the clothes not bygen-der, but according to the amount and kind of soil, light and dark -colors, and type of fabric. • Check pockets—especially his and remove any contents. (Remember, men tend to use pockets more than women do.) • Be careful not to set any new stains on garments. Pretreat spots and stains with an applica- tion of laundry soil and stain remover.
