Wedding Gift Ideas
Some of the most famous types of gifts are honeymoon gifts. One good idea is to give the couple a guidebook or a travel book of the place where they will be spending their honeymoon. This gift will help them find their way around and visit spots that they should not miss. Another popular gift choice is lingerie, which will surely make any bride even more beautiful and keep the sparks flying during the wedding night. A popular choice for functional wedding gifts is a set of holiday decorations that can help the future wife make their first Christmas or holiday together more memorable.
Another gift idea is a compilation of the engagement memories of the couple, which may come in the form of an album or a scrapbook. This will help the bride keep the memories of her shower, engagement party, and other events alive. A similar idea is to give the bride a "history" of the groom's family. A family tree or an album will capture the story and make her know her husband's family better.

Beach Wedding Planning
Sandals, Beaches, and... Weddings?
Ceremonies are taking place on Cancun beaches, in forests, and on cruise ships. Couples are leaving behind the carnival atmosphere and celebrity grandeur of the large wedding and are embracing simpler, more intimate settings for their ceremonies.
With a destination wedding, the couple selects the locale where they'd like to both hold their ceremony and their honeymoon. Cruise ships, Caribbean getaways, and Hawaiian resorts top the list of desirable destinations. Once they decide on a location, the couple typically draws up a small guest list - sometimes including as few as a half dozen family members and other times incorporating fifty or more guests.

Is a Destination Wedding Right for You?
Choosing a destination for your wedding is probably the most important wedding planning decision you will have to make. After all, the location of your wedding will dictate many factors of your wedding, including the cost. For example, many people are now opting for a more tropical and exotic location to get married, and if you have to travel to the other side of the world to get to your dream wedding destination, then that can be pretty expensive.
Destination weddings are certainly growing in popularity. While there are still many couples who go down the traditional route of getting married in a church followed by a reception in a banquet hall, there is no doubt that a destination wedding is a new and upcoming trend with couples wanting to tie the knot.

Bridal Jewelry: Fulfilling a Wedding Tradition
‘Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.’ This is a saying that many brides take to heart when considering their wedding trousseau. From wedding gowns, accessories and motifs, brides from all walks of life throughout the years have tried their best to stick to this formula. It’s interesting to note that bridal jewelry can follow this adage, too.
‘Something old’ could most often be a piece of bridal jewelry that is a family heirloom. Sometimes the groom would give to his bride a ring or another piece of jewelry that had once been owned by his mother, grandmother, or past brides in his family. Maybe the bride would wear her own mother’s antique jewelry or some other gem that has been handed down to brides in the family from generation to generation. One thing is certain, wearing such bridal jewelry would reinforce a sense of family, tradition and continuity in a wedding ceremony.
