Bridal-1996
A guideline for the groom
Following is a schedule for the
groom to follow:
THREE MONTHS
BEFORE WEDDING
Make out your guest list and
show to bride.
Discuss with your fiancee how
many ushers you'll need (about one
every 50 guests), and begin to
choose.
TWO MONTHS
BEFORE WEDDING
Complete your wedding attire
after consulting your bride.
Ask your best man and ushers to
participate and brief them on the
proper attire.
Discuss honeymoon plans with
your bride and start making the
necessary reservations. If you're
leaving the country, check on
passports, visas and inoculations.
ONE MONTH
BEFORE WEDDING
Pick up your bride's wedding
ring. Check to see that the
engraving is correct.
Purchase gifts for your
attendants.
Order gloves and neckwear for
attendants, and make sure they've
ordered their own wedding attire.
Select a wedding gift for your
bride.
Arrange a lodging for relatives
and ushers from out of town.
Make sure all necessary
documents - legal, medical and
religious are in order.
Complete honeymoon plans and
purchase all tickets.
TWO WEEKS
BEFORE WEDDING
Make a date with your bride to
get the marriage licence. (You
might make it a festive occasion
with lunch at her favourite
restaurant).
Check arrangements for the
bachelor dinner (if any).
Arrange with your best man for
transportation from the reception.
Pearls

well. High or closed neck gowns
call for longer strands of pearls to
7.reate a slim and smooth silhouette.
As far as earrings are concerned,
remember that drop earrings tend to
make the face appear longer while
stud and button earrings have a
shortening effect.
When it comes to selecting pearl
colour, women with lighter hair and
fair complexions tend to look best
in cultured pearls with a slight rose
tint, while creamy off-white hued
pearls complement darker hair and
skin tones. However, it is best to
match pearl colour to individual
skin tone by actually placing the
pearls against the skin and seeing
the effect.
Just as cultured pearls are perfect
for the bride, they should also be
considered for the bridal party to
give a matching appearance.
Inexpensive pearl earrings or
bracelets are perfect gifts for
bridesmaids, and pearl cuff links or
shirt studs are perfect gifts for
ushers.
ONE WEEK
BEFORE WEDDING
Present gifts to your attendants
(at the bachelor or rehearsal party,
perhaps).
Remind your best man and
ushers about rehearsal dinner
details.
Brief the head usher on any
special seating arrangements.
Put the minister's fee in a sealed
envelope and give it to the best
man (He will give it to the
minister.
Get your going-away clothes in
order so you can change at the
reception.
Pack for your honeymoon.
