Mother of the Bride: The Dream, the Reality, the Search for a Perfect Dress . When Ilene Beckerman told us the story of her clothes in Love, Loss, and What I Wore, she captivated women of all ages. Her story moved people to tears and made us laugh out loud, too. Ilene–”Gingy,” as she’s known–showed us ourselves. Now Gingy looks at one of life’s happiest (and most stressful) events: the planning of a daughter’s wedding. Once again this Everywoman takes us lovingly, and hilariously, through another passage in a woman’s life. Whether it’s searching for a mother-of-the-bride dress that doesn’t look like something Mrs. Khrushchev would have worn, or choosing hors d’oeuvres that won’t give the guests indigestion, Gingy offers a fresh look at a subject that needs a fresh look. She describes a year of agony and ecstasy–and along the way shares with us a mother’s love and expectations for her daughter. See details

You do not really know how to make your wedding celebration? Red roses and white candles can be found really boring and you had thought, your wedding is an experience of a very special kind?

What prevents you from? It’s your wedding, you are the main characters, and may determine how you want your wedding day.

Perhaps a theme wedding is exactly right for you. Go to you and your partner a special hobby or you have special preferences or habits of life?

All is possible, do not be discouraged! As long as you adhere to a certain framework that allows your guests to feel you on the celebration to well, everything is permitted. Always respect the “extreme” preferences (spiders, snakes, skulls, …) any dislikes of your guests - a “goth-wedding” is not for everyone!

A high level of acceptance can be reached whenever you stay authentic. Slip faithful in any roles to which you really have no relation, but stay to himself. Many people have a preference for the Middle Ages. Maidens, knights and medieval love poetry can revitalize your marriage as well as cocktails and reggae music on a Caribbean / tropical wedding. The possibilities here are endless! (more…)
