Your Wedding [antikvár]

INTRODUCTIONThis book is for everyone who is planning a wedding but isn't quite sure how to do it. It's also for everyone who is planning a wedding and is sure of what they want. Because once you've chosen what you want, you'll need to decide how best to get it.The format of the book is dedicated to the proposition that a wedding, by its very definition, should be a celebration, a time of sharing, a solemn and official act that takes place in an atmosphere of happiness. Any happy celebration that is shared with close friends and relatives should not be difficult to achieve. Rather, it should be pleasurable and, if not extremely simple, at least logical like A, B, C. Our alphabet proceeds with order but provides an infinite choice of words. And your wedding should be like this. Any possible combination of mood, style, taste, and comfort should be within your reach. What's needed is the plan, the order of events that will provide for the combination.Tradition has done well for us. But we've come to a time, in our society and in our own lives, when we have a deeper appreciation of what tradition represents, and a greater understanding of the fact that, just because etiquette is the given, we need not be bound up in it. For tradition should connote graciousness. Etiquette means the security of participating in an act that has been tried, tested, and approved. And we've learned that there are other acts that have not been tested that will be approved if they are planned with taste and executed with consideration and respect for anyone who will be even remotely involved. After all, tradition began somewhere. Someone was first.And your wedding is a first. The occasion will arise only once, the moment of its realization will happen only at the precise time and in the singular manner that you so choose. There is no right or wrong way to plan your wedding. There's only what will make you happy,
