funny wedding toasts - wedding planning 101

Many of the guests at a bridal shower may not have any connection to each other besides knowing the bride. Throwing a bridal shower for a friend or family member can be one of the most exciting parties you'll ever plan.

Even if you are very close with the couple you may be able to create a very inexpensive gift for their wedding. A wedding is already a financial strain on most couples and it is important to realize that your love for each other is enough and that you don't have to exchange gifts on your wedding day if you don't wish to do so. An engaged or married woman or man would wear the ring with the tips of the crown facing towards their fingertips.

The key to creating a theme basket that is not only creative but also appropriate for the couple is to keep in mind their likes and dislikes. If you are planning to have the surprise bridal shower at the bride-to-be's home, you don't want her to walk in on you while you are decorating, so make sure the guests are in on the surprise. Wedding dresses come in a multitude of colors including ivory, cream and even subtle beiges.

Cuff links or tie clips are still another traditional gift idea for a groom to give to his groomsmen. Last of all, remember to relax.
