| For a member of the wedding party.....When walking down the aisle in a wedding, is it more natural to smile slightly without your teeth or to beam the whole way showing your teeth if that's how you normally smile? |

I think that whatever you're feeling at the moment is what will be most natural. On the day of the wedding, you're so wrapped up in all the excitement and emotion (especially if you're close to the bride). If you want to smile big, smile big. Otherwise any kind of smile will work. And there won't be much focus on you anyway, afterall, it is the brides day! So don't worry abou it too much, and enjoy the wedding!  |

| Don't stress it! Just enjoy the wedding and watching your friend/relative marry their sweetheart. I think it's impossible not be happy for a good friend marrying a great person! |

| Smile however you feel like smiling! When I walked down the aisle as a bridesmaid in my friend's wedding, I wasn't grinning the whole time, but if I saw someone look at me, I smiled back at him/her. And if you think about where you are and what is about to take place and you suddenly feel a surge of happiness, by all means, grin and show those teeth. It's a happy occasion, and smiling big is a pretty way to show happiness.There are no rules about how big your smile can be at a wedding. As long as the bridesmaids don't look miserable, and as long as the bride doesn't demand that they put Vaseline on their teeth so they are grinning the entire ceremony, it doesn't matter. |

| Maybe get your escort to pinch you a little or tell you a joke so you're not stressig over it. Of course, if you plan your smile, it will look odd. Just try to think of what a wonderful occasion it is and how much you care about the bride and groom and hopefully your smile will be...just right. |

| when you walk down the aisle that is going to be the last thing on your mind. The only thing I could think was breathe and walk!! and Don't cry!! You will smile however you are going to smile because at the moment you se you almost husband everything else will become a blur!!!!!! |

| I think I photograph better when I have a closed lipped smile but I'm sure I will be cheesing all toothy as soon as I step through those doors. |

I thought I was going to be all serene and composed for my walk down the aisle, but then I saw my husband-to-be and got a silly grin on my face that just stayed there. Then, as I began walking with my dad, I saw all the people in the pews, some of whom I hadn't seen in months or even years - I started whispering "hi!" to people and waving and stuff; it took me half the song to get down to the altar. People laughed, it was hilarious, but I wanted to say hello! The pictures turned out great, there's my dad trying to be all serious and I'm hanging off his arm saying stuff to the guests with this doofy smile on.  |

| I think ti depends on the person. Some mirror practice should help. One example I can give..and I have learned well from it. It was the first wedding I was ever in, and I didn't have a smile on my face..sort of just a neutral look. Well, the photographer, unbeknown to the bridal party, accosted us the second we walked onto the aisle. There is one picture of me and I have the most ridiculous look on my face. I cringe when I think about that pic being in her album. Ughh. The next several weddings I have a big (not huge and cheesy..but with some teeth) smile on my face and those pics came out much better. So smile however makes you comfortable and looks natural, there are likely to be cameras and video everywhere so keep a consistent nice face on. |

Where and How to Start?
There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky!
Wedding Invitation
Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you.
Wedding Attire
Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire.
Wedding Flowers
Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost.
Wedding Ceremony Decoration
Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority...
Wedding Music
Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances.
Wedding Photography
Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day.
Wedding Favors
Some brides don’t like the idea of giving gifts to her guests, but we think it’s a nice gesture as a thank you...
Wedding Food
Wedding food can take a huge chunk out of your wedding budget.
Wedding Cake
Your wedding cake is the centerpiece of the reception. It is a scrumptious dessert as well as part of a tradition
Wedding Party
The question of whether or not to serve alcohol at your wedding is one that can cause dissension in the ranks of family.
