When Bridesmaids Don’t Play Nice
There are going to be friends in your life, who you love dearly, but who would not have much in common outside of their friendships with you. That is part of life. In most cases, those differing opinions, and mix-matched personalities can play nice for the sake of a wedding, which, after all, generally means only a handful of days in each other’s company. But, sometimes it is not so much a case of indifference to one another as it is a deep-seeded dislike of each other. When you have two friends who really don’t get along – whether there is a good reason for the hard feelings, or not – it can put you in an awkward position, especially if you have your heart set on having both stand at your side during the wedding ceremony.
Take Great Wedding Photos in Lake Tahoe
Are you one of those people who seems to be doomed to crappy photos for the rest of your life? While we are all self-critical when seeing pictures taken by others, we also want to feel good about the photos taken on our wedding days. You are undoubtedly feeling the same. So, we have a few tips to help you make the most of the big day and to get the wedding photos in Lake Tahoe that you so desire.
Hord’Oeuvres Hour: Making Your Favorite Meals Mini
Very often, shortly after the wedding ceremony is completed, the bride and groom, along with the bridesmaids, groomsmen, and closest relatives, will go off with the photographer for a photoshoot. This creates a span of time when the guests are in a sort of limbo, between ceremony and formal reception. In order to fill that time gap, many couples choose to offer drinks and snacks, along with music of some type as entertainment. Offering hor d-oeuvres to tide guests over until dinner is a wonderful option, and can also create a very memorable environment, especially if you have fun with the food.
Making Your Wedding Menu Vegetarian-Friendly
The number of people choosing not to eat meat products has increased substantially over the past couple of decades. With more knowledge, cookbooks dedicated to overcoming dietary restrictions, and a better selection at grocery stores, it is easier and healthier to be a vegetarian than ever before. That likely means that at least one person at your wedding reception will refuse meat during the main meal. As a result, many brides and grooms are doing what they can to accommodate vegetarians, and it isn’t as difficult as some believe it to be. In fact, in some cases, it isn’t even necessary to plan a specifically vegetarian main meal option.
Reducing the Burden on Your Bridesmaids
There is a great deal of thrill that comes with accepting a marriage proposal and starting the planning process.

They most certainly want to be at your side as you say your vows, however, you have to remember how much expense can go into playing the part of bridesmaid.
Don’t Make These Wedding Menu Mistakes
