My wedding is coming up in about a month and I have a few things I''m still not sure about. I''d love anyone''s feedback and opinions...
1) Do I have to print wedding programs? This will be a catholic wedding with no mass and my side is not catholic. We are making it as short and sweet as possible... is it unheard of to not print them? Would anyone miss them? One of my bridesmaids seemed appalled that I would skip them but she isn''t really in on proper ettiquette and has only been to 2 weddings so I don''t know.
2) Who gives toasts at the rehearsal dinner and wedding reception? Are the parents obligated to? My parents just aren''t good at public speaking but I don''t want it to look bad if FI''s dad gives one but my dad does not... or if FI''s dad gives one and I ask my uncle or someone else to do one.
3) I am planning on having a "bridal luncheon" the day before the wedding. I only have 2 bridesmaids now (1 flaked out on me) so is it neccessary to send them an invitation or can I just let them know? It will only be the 3 of us going and I was planning on going after we all get our nails done that day. It doesn''t really see formal enough to me to send invitations.
Ok, I think thats all for now. Please let me know what you think!
