If the couple is hosting the rehearsal dinner, now is also the time to confirm these arrangements. The stereotype of a bachelor party is a last night of debauchery for the groom and his friends before the wedding but in more recent times soon to be grooms are looking to less traditional activities to mark their final days as bachelors.
As your wedding day approaches it is important to begin making preparations for your honeymoon. When buying a bridal shower gift it can be simplified by deciding what category of gift you would like to purchase. Timing is also an important factor to consider when planning a bridal shower.
You might want to consider having both the bride and the groom dressing in the traditional attire of the one of the families but having them enter the ceremony to traditional music of the other family. Since you are no longer teenagers, you will probably want something a little more sophisticated than potato chips and soda, while at the same time nobody wants to be stuck in the kitchen cooking, cleaning, or putting plates together. If a caterer does not offer tasting sessions, strike them off your list immediately unless you have tasted their food at previous weddings.
Unique gift ideas for the bridesmaids can also stem from the wedding theme. A limousine company may come highly recommended but if they are not in your price range, don't be afraid to let them know why you are going to have to choose another company and you may be surprised at how soon they are willing to give you a different offer.
