Golden weddings are always big events. A golden wedding is an anniversary of the wedding 50 years before. By this time, the kids are all grown up, married, and have kids of their own. This emotional and exciting event and includes all the young and old in the family because it is a celebration of a couples love and life.

Not all wedded couples are lucky to stay together for a century after they walked the aisle and exchanged "I dos." The celebration maybe a simple one or a grand one mimicking the first wedding in all its grandeur - depending on the size of the couples' pockets or of their children's finances.

It also takes a lot of planning for the golden wedding. There are decisions to make - where the renewal of vows will be held, the wine, venue for the reception, wedding décor, and preparing that letter to the White House so your folks will get a grand personal greeting from the President!

When it comes to wedding dresses, golden brides have several choices - thanks to new fashion trends and technologies. They can forego the traditional wedding dresses and settle for something less extravagant and comfortable.

The Golden Girls' Wedding Dresses

For the renewal of vows at the church, couples indeed dress up. The groom dons his tux (again) and the golden bride wears one of those appropriate wedding dresses trimmed in gold - an outfit they can wear comfortably for the backyard barbecue or for a sumptuous fest outdoors or in a classy restaurant.

It is tempting to use the original wedding gown. Unfortunately, not all golden girls can squeeze into their original wedding outfits. As a concession, the golden bride chooses dresses that are in keeping with the wedding theme and the current season and get to savor the latest luxury fashions in wedding gowns.

Online bridal shops offer the best in shopping and golden girls do not have to max out their time and energy wandering about uptown or downtown looking for their perfect sparkling wedding dresses and wedding posies - yellow orchids or violets are often recommended but there are more options for the modern day golden bride.

Going back to wedding gowns, the popular color choices are white, silver gray, off white, and in the extreme - a golden gown adorned with fresh water pearls and swarovski crystals. The design of the original wedding dress can be adopted for sentimental reasons and modified for a more current look and use the well-kept blue garter from the wedding 50 years ago for nostalgia's sake.

The Golden Touch

For a touch of gold, your mom can have her ivory wedding dress trimmed with gold and. your dad can wear a sparkling golden fob for his pocket watch or a yellow rose in his boutonnière.

To increase you folks' pleasure play CDs of their music and favorite love songs in the background and watch your mom float in that wedding dress she chose over a hundred wedding dresses.

A wedding is a solemn occasion. It is also a special event by which two willing hearts and minds unite by an eternal bond of everlasting love. Hence, the apparel of the bride and the groom should be thoughtfully chosen to reflect the significance of the grand occasion. The wedding dress of the bride comes in bright, auspicious colors styled uniquely in conformance with the ceremonial importance as determined by the culture and religion, which sanctifies the marriage.

Features of wedding dress

Wedding dresses come in various colors, forms and styles corresponding to the many cultures and fashions from which they hail. Wedding dresses are characterized by their exquisite grace and charm. Though the term wedding dress usually refers to the bridal gown worn by Western/European brides, all the various kinds of dresses worn by brides worldwide come within the ambit of wedding dress.

Wedding dresses vary with regions, customs, cultures and religions. The Oriental, the Indian, the Middle East, the African, the Mediterranean, and the American - all have their respective typical wedding dress codes. Whatever may be the type of wedding dress of the bride - a bridal gown, a sari, a kimono, a Salwar Kamiz with wedding veil, it is created to spell elegance and hold the audience and especially the bridegroom spellbound.
