| "WEDDING DAY WISDOM..." An Excerpt From The Book | |
| ARE YOU FEELING LUCKY? | |
| The bride had always dreamed of a garden wedding right at home. Her family had a gorgeous home with rolling acres of green grass. Her mother devoted countless hours to cultivating extraordinary perennials and her pride and joy, her rose gardens. The bride hoped to take advantage of this beautiful landscape. So she ordered some tents in case of rain and began preparations for her dream garden wedding. As the wedding day drew near, mom and dad spent every waking hour working on the grounds to ensure they were impeccable for this special day. The bride did her part: She spoke to the florist to make sure the bouquets would look like they came right out of the yard. She even ordered a magnificent wedding cake decorated with pastel roses, lilies of the valley and delphinium to match the bridesmaids' bouquets and tie in with the garden wedding theme. While taking care of all these details, she stumbled upon a little shop that sold beautiful, albeit expensive, custom-made chocolate wedding favors perfect to put at each place setting. The bride just couldn't resist them. Fast forward to the wedding day. The yard looks magnificent. Everything has been delivered as promised and as luck would have it, it is the hottest day of the year. We're talking real hot. The bride was relieved that she ordered the tents. They prevented the sun from beating down upon the guests and offered some shade. But although the guests were somewhat relieved from the heat, the same couldn't be said for the chocolates. As the guests fanned themselves and chatted about the lovely ceremony, nobody had the courage, although they all thought it, to ask why the bride had put chocolate puddles at each place setting. The heat had melted every one of her beautiful custom-made chocolate wedding favors. MORAL OF THE STORY: In New England there are two seasons: July and winter. Tip: Outdoor events are tricky. In most parts of the country, it's too hot or too cold, too rainy or too sunny. There are about three "perfect" days a year. If your dream wedding is an outdoor one but you are hesitant because of the uncertainty of the weather, there are ways to make it work without jeopardizing the comfort of your guests. We have seen weddings where the ceremony takes place outside in a garden area, cocktails and hors d'oeuvres are served on a patio and then the party moves indoors to an air-conditioned facility, offering the best of both worlds. Another option if you have your heart set on an outdoor wedding is to find a function facility that has a great outside area for parties, but can provide a contingency plan inside if your luck runs out. If you are still insistent on having your wedding in mom's garden, simply determine the maximum number of people you can cram into her house and limit your guest list to that number. If the weather doesn't cooperate, that's where they all will be - complaining!
