Marriage Is Time For Everybody To Mind Their Manners.

Did you hear the one about the groom that got so drunk the evening before his marriage he passed out in the nuptials? But a sophisticated, kind bride doesn't indulge her ego, overlook her bridesmaids ' feelings or mention the poor taste of others, according to Gail Dunson, coauthor of "Bridezilla : True Stories From Etiquette Hell" and a licensed custom and etiquette advisor. Dunson has heard lots of stories about marriage guests gone awry, tacky gifts and friendships spoiled by marriage catastrophes on frosted eiffel tower vases , the website she manages with partner Jeanne Hamilton. "There are plenty of badly judged folk out there," Dunson recounted. "the one thing that matters is getting down to the end of the aisle and exchanging vows. Uninspired thanks notes for marriage gifts is the most discussed correspondence crime, Dunson related. "The bride writes the most creative thankyou note possible," Dunson declared.

Put it in a closet, smash it with a hammer in the yard or give it to charity -- do not tell the gift-giver what's happened to their considerate thingamajig, Dunson related.

I have been interviewed a few times, and yes there's definitely a skill to it. As fast as you point a camera at somebody, they usually completely lose their abilities to talk in a natural and relaxed demeanour. Put the camera on a tripod, start recording, turn off the tiny record LED ( in the menu ) so that the interviewee has not got a repeated reminder that they are being recorded, and then position yourself to the right / left of the camera and just start speaking to them. Remember you can always edit out your own voice. It'd take ten mins before they begin to forget they are being filmed, and that is when you may get the finest material - worth losing ten mins of tape over. Naturally, you do not want them drunk, so selected your moment fastidiously. Instead, let your attendants have a say in the outfits they should wear. "If the bridesmaids look beautiful, the bride is going to look gorgeous," Dunson recounted. "If the bridesmaids do not look good, I guarantee tongues will be wagging. "To actively seek money is simply an atrocious fake pas," Dunson announced. "Asking your visitors to bring out their wallets will definitely put a sour taste on their tongues.
