How well do you know wedding etiquette quiz?

[keepyourhandsoffmycat]

I am doing this quiz because I thought it would be fun to see how much people know about wedding etiquette or 'wediquette'.

1) You already have plenty of things for your house. Do you:
a) put 'cash only' gifts on your invitations
b) ask family to tell people that cash is what you want/ perfer
c) don't do or say anything and hope people will just give cash
d) accept any gifts you get and be happy to get them

2. You don't want any children at your wedding. Do you:
a) put 'no children' on your invitation
b) spread the word through family it is an adult only event
c) politely suggest to people that they leave their kids at home/ with baby sitter so they can have a fun kid-free night
d) don't say or do anything and hope people will just not bring kids

to be continued...
3. With your bridesmaids, do you:
a) expect them to be there at your beck and call all the time so you can bombard them with wedding plans and throw a tantrum when they can't help
b) expect help a fair bit but grudgingly 'understand' when they aren’t available
c) expect them to have only a little input so far as their dress, the bridal shower and bachelorette party is concerned
d) expect very little and are happy to do it all yourself

4. When things don’t go your way with planning, do you:
a) throw the world’s biggest tantrum and cry because your wedding is going to be ruined
b) just blame everyone involved then say ‘it’s my day, I am the bride, so it’s gonna be my way’
c) have a little huff about it for a few minutes then find a way to over-come the problem
d) realise that wedding planning is not stress-free and things happen so let it go
5. A guest’s baby starts to cry during your ceremony, do you:
a) stop the ceremony and shoot a filthy look at the mother and wait until she removes the child before continuing, the nerve of her!
b) say ‘why are there any kids here anyway, the invite said “no children”!’
c) just say ‘maybe you can take the baby out, thanks’
d) ignore it, you are sure the mother will remove the child without fuss

1) D
2) are you talking wedding or reception - what is the location of the service - you can't exclude kids from a church service
for reception you invite Mr & Mrs. and do not add and children
3) you have asked them to stand up with you - not to be your slaves - C is resonable in most cases - it is traditional that the bridal party organize a shower and because the maids will be paying for the dress many brides try to be considerate as to what they will be comfortable in and be able to use again in some way - D is all that you should except
4) D
5) D
The purpose of the day is for a celebration of you and your groom's commitment to Love, Honor, and Obey each other
not for it to be a hollywood production
Many couples would do well to put more thought into the life together than "the day", to to remember/learn why certain traditions arose - than to have to have all the trappings.
