How traditional was your wedding, or will it be?

Sweetness, on June 23, 2019 at 1:43 PM Posted in Community Conversations 0 22

How much or how little did you have, or will you have:

Best man, Maid Of Honour, Bridesmaids, Flower Girls, Page Boys, Ushers?

Will you spend the night before apart, or will you stay together?

Honeymoon or stay at home?

Will you be given away, or walk up the aisle alone?

Wedding cake or something different?


I'm curious to see how everyone else did it, or will do it. Smiley smile

    Best man, Maid Of Honour, Bridesmaids, Flower Girls, Page Boys, Ushers? We has a BM, MOH, a bridesdue and groomsman

    Will you spend the night before apart, or will you stay together? We stayed together. He also saw me in the dress ahead of time since we had to go to the chapel already attired.

    Honeymoon or stay at home? We're going to hoonymoon probably next year. We're planning a waterfall tour throughout Pennsylvania.

    Will you be given away, or walk up the aisle alone? I walked up by myself. I planned on having my dad give me away on the dancefloor into my first dance.

    Wedding cake or something different? We had a crepe cake

    All of the above except for ushers. One of FHs best friends will be our officiant.

    Will you spend the night before apart, or will you stay together?

    Apart. I'm staying at our hotel with my MOH and FH will stay at home with his BM.

    Honeymoon or stay at home?

    Both. We're driving a couple hours to Montreal for 4 days to get away for a little bit. Then in March 2020 we plan on a full honeymoon to Iceland.

    Will you be given away, or walk up the aisle alone?

    My dad will walk me down the aisle- I couldn't take that away from him.

    Wedding cake or something different?

    A small wedding cake for display and a sheet cake in the back to serve.

    I like the idea of a waterfall tour, that sounds heavenly! Smiley love

    I like dad giving you away for the first dance too. That's sweet and a bit different.

    What a cake you had! It looks too pretty to cut though. Smiley winking

    I like that you have a friend to marry you. That's really cool.

    I like the idea of a mini break, with a full honeymoon later on.

    He had expressed marrying us before in the past, so we decided why the heck not?

    I read that the best time to see the Northern Lights is Dec-April, so we decided to combine that trip with my FHs birthday in March.

    None. Zip. Zilch. Zero.

    Together.



    Honeymoon or stay at home?

    We are doing a destination wedding so we will be also having a honeymoon at the same time.

    Will you be given away, or walk up the aisle alone?

    Walking with my FH.

    Maybe a sweet dessert. Smiley smile

    Thank you! Luckily I didn't have to cut it...

    My father is transgender, so we both felt a 'father/daughter' dance would have been awkward for both of us (to each their own, but just awkward for us). The 'giving away' worked better. Since the ceremony was so small, it worked well.

    I wouldn't have thought of going down the aisle with a sibling. That's sweet. Smiley smile

    We have mixed genders on both sides of our BP. I have a MOH, my FW does not. Two flower girls, no RB. No page boys or ushers. My stepdad is walking me down the aisle, but not giving me away. We’re serving cupcakes. No tosses. Staying together the night before and going to a cabin for our mini-moon.

    Maybe 'giving away' is an old british term of phrase.

    It’s more like personal pet peeve. I don’t like making women being made to sound like property.

    I hadn't really thought about it, until you mentioned it.

    Though I'm curious to know how many goats I'd be worth. Smiley winking
