A best man's toast can offer a thought provoking look at married life, honor his friendship with the groom or reveal intimate and often embarrassing details of the couple's courtship. While you may want to splurge on an extravagant gift for a close friend or relative, you are not required to invest a great deal of money in a gift for a casual acquaintance.
Finding the perfect dress can take quite a bit of time and once you find the dress, it may take up to four months for the dress to be ordered and shipped to the store. Traditionally the maid of honor hosts the bridal shower with the assistance of the bridesmaids. A similar gift would be a nice wicker basket filled with non-perishable foods that would be handy in case the bride and groom are short on time after the honeymoon.
Once you phone around, you will be able to eliminate caterers who are already booked for your wedding date and who are out of your price range. You will want to be comfortable on your wedding day so dress according to the weather. Some brides choose two or three dresses that you would be happy with and allow the maid of honor to choose one dress from these options or allow the wedding party to vote on the options.
The more involved they are, the less likely they are to feel left out and resentful about the wedding. However, if you plan on having only a small number of guests then a wedding in a private home may be a wonderful option.
