Weddings!

In Britain and the USA, wedding invitations go out about six weeks before the wedding day. The guests write as soon as possible to say if they can or cannot come.

Choosing a present for the couple can be difficult. In Britain people don’t take their presents to the wedding. They send them to the woman’s house before the wedding day. To help them find a present, couples often make a list of what they would like and leave it at a store. Their friends call the store and order something from the list.

Most weddings take place before lunch or in the early afternoon. Many people like to get married in church. The bride often wears a long white dress. Guests wear their best clothes and most of the women wear hats. In the church, the bride’s family sits on the left and the groom’s family sits on the right.

In Britain you have to get married in a church or a registry office (never both). But in the States you get married where you like, in your home, in a hotel or in a park or garden.

After the wedding, there is a short reception. The guests go to the bride’s home or to the hotel, pub or restaurant and have something to eat and champagne to drink. The bride and groom cut the wedding cake, and the groom’s friends (his “best man”) makes a speech. The guests usually leave after the bride and groom. Sometimes the couple give a party or disco in the evening.

Married people wear their wedding rings on the third finger of the left hand. Most married women wear wedding rings, but married men often do not.
