"It was Konstantin Stanislavski who so-famously said, “There are no small roles, only small actors.”

Well, grooms-to-be, if the run-up to your wedding is anything like mine was, you will not only be playing a small role, but you’ll be doing it as a small actor. And you best not flub your lines.

All in all, it’s not a bad gig being the groom. You’re in everybody’s top, say, six most important characters in the wedding. You get to have cake. There’s usually a cocktail to be found at some point during the festivities. Just don’t screw it up."

"Every couple has an idea of the significant wedding day moments they’ll want to look back on for years to come. The procession down the aisle, accompanied by the awed gasps of friends and family. The heartfelt exchange of vows and rings. The infectious, joyful energy of the confetti send-off; all memorable moments that couples can preserve by hiring a media team. A photographer will snap the moment in time when you share your first kiss as a married couple, a memory that’ll receive a prime spot on your fireplace mantle or framed in your hallway. A videographer will capture the emotions of the day in their audible reality, compiling the footage into a sentimental home video you’ll revisit on future anniversaries. But there are the unscripted memories — those magical, impromptu moments that can’t be accounted for on the wedding schedule — that are often as valuable to newlyweds as the more principal wedding staples. Within the last year, there’s been the emergence of a new wedding profession that specializes in capturing these types of candid moments: the wedding content creator. "

"Tradition and the big wedding milestones go together like cake and frosting. It’s the reason the bride throws a handful of flowers backward into a crowd of her waiting friends during the reception. It dictates that the bride wear something old, new, borrowed, and blue to gain a little extra luck for a happy marriage....Since the contemporary bridal shower pays tribute to the bride by showcasing her individuality and personality, it’s essential for anyone planning this pre-wedding event to consider which traditions will speak to the future Mrs. personally, and either lose or update the ones that don’t."
