How to be SURE you get your dress fitted on time
Written by Mitch Taylor
Sunday, 22 May 2011 10:38

I recently read a Facebook exchange of how mad a past bride of mine was at a bridal shop for not having bridesmaids dresses in on time for alterations and having the bride jump through hoops just to contact them.  Now this COULD be an article about customer service but it’s not.

I wanted to share with you a tip by fellow Wedding Entertainer Dan Blankowski from Atlanta, GA who wrote “Want to be best friends with the bride?  Suggest to her to tell the bridal shop the wedding is a month earlier than it actually is.  This will allow her enough time for alterations and ensure the dress arrives in enough time to prevent stress.”

Thanks Dan for your great idea and as promised, it’s now passed along for you to enjoy!

Why is the bride on the left?
Written by Mitch Taylor
Monday, 16 May 2011 10:32

You’ve seen it this way for years in your friends weddings that you’ve stood in…but why does the bride stand on the left.  This tradition dates back to medieval times when there was such a thing as “marriage by capture”.  The Groom stood on the right side of his bride to be able to quickly pull his sword (most men being right-handed) to ward off opposing men trying to capture his bride.  This is also why the Groomsmen are aligned to the right during a wedding ceremony for their assistance in helping the Groom defend his bride.  The Best Man was normally chosen as the best warrior for protection of the Bride and Groom as well.

In modern times, some couples buck the tradition and actually choose to reverse their stances.  Just be sure to check with your church first to determine if it is against their house rules to do so.
