While you may want to splurge on an extravagant gift for a close friend or relative, you are not required to invest a great deal of money in a gift for a casual acquaintance. Planning the bachelor party, organizing tuxedo rental and returns, organizing the groomsmen, holding the ring during the ceremony and offering the first toast at the reception are just a few of the responsibilities that the best man bears in a wedding.
Try to choose a ring bearer and flower girl who are over the age of four and while the adult participants may only need to run through their part once, allow extra time for the child to practice their part several times. Even if you are very close with the couple you may be able to create a very inexpensive gift for their wedding. If you are planning a bridal shower for your friend who will be going to Hawaii on her honeymoon, why not make is a Hawaiian theme, as well as the attire.
Still another tip for including children in your wedding is to have the photographer take any pictures that will include the children early in the photography session. Your bridesmaids most likely spent a great deal of time and energy in helping you to plan your wedding. So go ahead and allow yourself to enjoy the celebration of the bridal shower again.
The key to planning a great bridal shower is to keep the bride's taste in mind during the planning effort. As the number of inter-racial couples increases, there is also an increased need for creative ways to blend two different cultures into a wedding ceremony and reception that will be enjoyed by all the guests.
