If you have just stumbled upon my Wedding blog for the first time, I recommend that you start viewing from "Wedding bells are Ringing" in order to get a good impression of what Wedding photography is all about, especially if you are a bride to be, or even just the girl next door.
Weddings are really cool, especially if you're invited, since your invitation entitles you to a treat by the wedding couple because you special, be you family or just a friend. Depending on the affluence of the occasion depends on the size of your treat. This could mean Breakfast, Lunch and Super including dessert, cake and coffee and could take up your entire day or at times this could mean a visit to the local court as a witness and meeting at a coffee shop afterwards. However, this invitation often come at a cost to you in the form of a wedding gift and even though it is not absolutely necessary, one normally feel obliged to buy one. Often times with Muslim Weddings, the bride and the groom have separate receptions and normally the procedure is that after the Nikkah takes place at a mosque which is only attended by males, a breakfast is hosted for them . Here you can get to see the bride in her morning Wedding Dress and the groom and his best-men in there best attire - in most cases, three piece tuxedos and ties each wearing a pair of elegant shoes to match.
Normally the brides meets with the groom at this breakfast since they are now married to exchange Expensive Diamond Studded Rings and wedding bands. Jewelry could range from just gold or platinum rings to gold wrist watches to gold arm chains to gold tiepins to gold earring and gold bangles. If you know your jewelry, this occasion is a treat in self. Diamonds are a girls best friend and on this day, one just cannot help but notice how many times the bride looks at that gorgeous rock on her finger that she received.
