It's just 24 hours until the big day, and you say goodbye to your spouse-to-be, knowing you won't see each other again until you're at the altar. You set off for an evening of fun with the ladies while he's off with the guys, taking in one last night of single life.
While every wedding can still be a memorable and enjoyable event even if mistakes are made during the planning phase, a couple, and especially the bride, will be able to better enjoy their special day if they will strive to avoid the following common wedding planning mistakes.
It's all done in the name of keeping away bad luck. But what bad luck could seeing your spouse-to-be possibly have on a marriage?
The one who comes out victor is said to be the next to marry. But where did that tradition come from? Who decided it would be a good thing to do and why would anyone want the garter-of all things? Tradition has it that the practice began long ago, and was a much more violent affair than you've seen today.
In other words, one of the most common bridal mistakes a bride can make while planning for her wedding is to spend their entire fashion budget on the dress alone.
It just so happens that the idea to not see the bride before the big day came from a time of arranged marriages. Two families would agree to let their sons and daughters marry in order to gain some political, land, or other kind of increase for their own family.
Fathers would give away their daughters. The arrangement was made and the date was set, but the groom-to-be was not allowed to see his future bride until the day of the wedding.
Not only will the dress come out to be more than the one grand, what with taxes and alterations, but then the bride's fashion budget will have been blown on the dress alone, leaving no room for accessories, jewelry, hair ordainments, etc.
So the bride (and her dress by default) was kept completely secret until the day of the wedding. Once the vows were said, the groom could finally look upon his wife.
This good luck has everything to do with the ladies though as it is meant to help him get married. Like the bouquet toss, the one to catch the garter is expected to be the next in the party to marry.
Instead, a couple should only plan for what flowers they want to have at their wedding after they know the season of their marriage and what flowers are readily available.
As arranged marriages have ceased in many of today's cultures, the tradition remains, even though they has less meaning now. Today, many couples uphold the superstition that it's bad luck for your marriage if you see each other a day before the wedding.
Veils are still worn and dresses are still kept secret. Even though he's not going to reject her on the wedding day, it's still a fun tradition to upkeep.
Not only do these services offered by event planners and their wedding packages greatly reduce the stress of planning for the wedding, but they likewise will most often come in under budget and so allow the bride and groom to have a joyful and well planned wedding with little of the fuss of planning the wedding by themselves.
