informal wedding? The formality of the wedding should reflect on the mood and
style of all the components. • Formal Wedding -Usually 200 or more guests -Reception is held in a hotel or country club with formal rooms -Wedding ceremony is held in a large space -Usually a religious ceremony held in a cathedral or synagogue -Many wedding attendants: bridesmaids, flowers girls, pages, ushers, ring bearers, etc -Live music, usually an orchestra • Semiformal Wedding -Can have either a large or small number of guests -Less elaborate than a formal wedding (see above) -DJ, small string group or small band -2 or more bridesmaids, no pages -Smaller ceremony space • Informal Wedding -May be held at home, which was the typical occurrence until the turn of the century. -More casual dress, no tuxedos -Small number of guests, usually less than 50 By Nicole Mazzeo Wrapwithus wedding favors |
