I don’t have much of a back ground for weddings. I was actually a flower girl when I was little but don’t remember much of it. Last year I was in a wedding and I have to admit there was a lot about weddings that I didn’t know. I knew that the bride had a bridal shower where she gets gifts from pots and pans to home décor. I learned that the maid of honor is the one that usually throws the bridal shower for the bride. I also learned that they have a rehearsal and a rehearsal dinner for everyone in the wedding party. The two weddings I have been to have been totally different, one of them that I went to everyone was there long enough to eat and see the first dance and garter toss, and there was no dancing which I thought was a big part of a wedding. The 2nd one I went to there was a lot of people and everyone ate and stayed for a long time to dance and have fun. There is a lot of planning that goes into a wedding from which DJ to choosing what kind of cake you want.
And go on--explain to your reader that you are about to be married, that you've decided on a certain kind of wedding.
