As time moves on, weddings are beginning to take place during weekdays, but it is at the weekend when we hear the bells that most of us recognize as the time when a couple have just married. For those of us that are married, the whole thing brings back memories and we remember our own and others wedding days.
There's the massive cake, the champagne, the jovial crowd and the wonderful wedding traditions. These are the things we look forward to on our day of perfect bliss. The scene is set and the bride walks towards the alter and her bride with her father ready to give her away, finally exchanging the wedding rings in a gesture of union. All these things must be thoughts in your mind if you are close to your wedding and it wouldn't be the same without the little traditions we have all grown up with. If you were to place it in any order, it would be the pre-wedding parties, the ceremony itself and of course the honeymoon.
The bachelor party is where the men get a chance to arrange some treats for the groom who is generally worried about what might happen to him. Bachelor parties are great so it doesn't matter if not everyone believes that they are a real wedding tradition. I have been to a few bachelor parties, my brothers and a good buddy of mine but they were quite some time ago so I don't know all the tricks that they get up to nowadays. Often these parties are just simple affairs where a group of guys close to the groom get together and have a few drinks and maybe some dancing girls. Most of this celebration is about friendship and letting go of the single lifestyle and notice that I didn't say it's about getting buck wild with the dancers. At one time it was the guys who dominated the bachelor parties but the girls have started to catch up and it won't be long before they compete with the men for party antics.
Arranged marriages couples everywhere always look forward to the honeymoon wedding tradition. Finally after all the preparations, you will be alone for a couple of weeks with no-one to bother you and nothing to sort out but what you want to o each day. From my point of view, the honeymoon is the start of the marriage so why not spend some more a better destination and not so much on the wedding but I doubt many people would agree. It is probably the best holiday the couple will ever have so there is nothing wrong with them spending a little more on themselves and having some well earned fun. Some people do not spend much time thinking about the honeymoon but I believe that a two week holiday after a wedding requires some in depth thought.
