Etiquette for a second marriage
Times are changing and
along with them, the
traditions attatched to
marriage and the wedding
ceremony..
For women taking the
vows for the second time, the
feelings of happiness, joy
and excitement, once
reserved only for first time
brides are being shared by
all.
"The whole atomsophere,
surrounding second wed-
dings_.has . _changed," ob- .
serves Barbara Tober,
editor-m-chiefof, Bride's
magazine., "There is nothing
that can be considered taboo
anymore. The only question
couples need to ask them-
selves is, `Will what we are
doing make our friends
comfortable and happy for
us?' If it will, by all means go
ahead!"
In past years, second
marriages were handled
with care, and little, . if
nothing, was said about them
in public.

discreet despite the fact that

is a public assertion of love
and commitment.
Today, a second marriage
is nothing to be embarrassed
about. Rather,, remarriage
has become very much a
part of the wedding scene.
According to the Bride's
magazine, 28 per cent of
marriages today are
remarriages.
As for the novice bride,
there have been rules of
etiquette established for
women getting married for
the second time. -.
Engagements are not
usually announced during
divorce proceedings from a
previous marriage.
P �e.
The ceremony itself is
often kept simple, with
traditions such as the givirg-
away and long procession
down the aisle omitted.
Throwingthe bouquet and
garterare left out, but
otherwise the reception can
be as large and lavish a
party as desired.
A woman marrying again
has her choice of wedding
outfits.
"I see no reason not to
wear white the second time
around," Mrs. Tober says.
"Something simple and
sophisticated,perhaps a
dress with a hat. You don't
need a cathedral train or
veil, but .,dress up and be
