Renewing Your Wedding Vows
When you first say your wedding vows, you take them to heart, but you don’t realize what they really mean. When you use traditional vows, you may think the parts that talk about sickness and health, richer and poorer, and better or worse are quaint, but they don’t mean much. As you go through the years of your marriage, you will soon understand exactly why those things are included in many types of wedding vows. Commitment is easy when you are happy, in love, and are walking down the aisle, but it is not so easy when things get bad.
The true test of any union is when things go wrong. Think about poorer, worse, and sickness. Those are all things that can test the deepest of loves. When they happen, couples really learn what commitment is about. Are they going to honor their wedding vows or not? Commitment means sticking it out when you don’t want to be there, and that is a promise many give up on too easily. There are some reasons that seem to void wedding vows, but other than abuse or abandonment, the union should be saved if at all possible. That is...

Traditionally, brides wear white. Some brides look fantastic in stark-white, flowing gowns. Some do not. Many women have fair skin. These brides look pale and washed out when they wear white. Redheads also look a little odd in the traditional white gown. A good alternative for these ladies is an ivory wedding dress.
You can find nearly any style in an ivory wedding dress as you can in the traditional white. Many women like the idea of using a little color while still wearing “white” on their special occasions. The ivory wedding dress compliments just about every skin tone without giving a washed-out look that stark-white often does.
Many women go through a number of beauty-enhancing rituals before the big day. If you have rich, dark hair and you are spending hours each week going to a tanning bed you may want to stick with a white bridal gown. Women of color may also fair better with the traditional gown because the skin tones are rich and lovely. There is little chance of looking washed out no matter how white the bridal attire is. The contrast can be stunning and literally breathtaking.
Some ladies do not tan. If you are one of those girls who goes through a summer cycle of burn-peel-freckle, burn-peel-freckle, you are a prime candidate for an ivory wedding dress. The added tones and colors will offset fair skin while white will wash it away. You want to enhance your alabaster skin, not wash it off.
Redheads often fair better in an ivory wedding dress. There are two basic kinds of redheads. The first is the classic vibrant red and the second is the auburn redhead. The fist commonly boasts natural curls with the orange-red locks while the latter may appear to be a brunette in certain lighting. I fall into the latter category.
Even though I don’t burn-peel-freckle I do have auburn hair. There was little worry about my looking washed out but I found that I looked much better in an ivory wedding dress than I did in white. After trying on a number of white gowns that just weren’t quite right, I finally caved in and tried on an ivory wedding dress.
There was no turning back after that. The ivory wedding dress complimented the auburn highlights in my hair and it still looked quite white in contrast to the attendants’ burgundy-wine gowns. It is always a good idea to keep an open mind when trying on bridal attire.

About Wedding Receptions
What is your funniest memory? Does it involve you laughing your head off at someone else? What about your most embarrassing one? Do you remember where you were when you were the most ashamed of your family? What about the time that you thought for sure you had to have been adopted? Most likely you were at a wedding reception. Hopefully it just was not your own.
Although wedding receptions are supposed to be the most beautiful, touching events families and friends can share, more often than not they turn into hilarious or horrendous evenings. We have all been to a few wedding receptions that left us in tears, either from laughing our butts off or embarrassed beyond all repair. Hopefully you were one of the innocent witnesses to a wedding reception debacle and were able to laugh at it all.
Many people are not so lucky. I have seen entire families brought to tears by the ill-fated wedding speeches or drunken uncles at wedding receptions. My biggest piece of advice would be to avoid having an open bar at your reception. This cuts down on the possibility that anyone may want to stick their head in...
