Matching Type

If there is one thing that you should be at your wedding, you should definitely be yourself. Your wedding is about you and your spouse to be. It therefore makes sense for you to have the kind of wedding ceremony and celebration that matches your personality.

If you are a very private, reserved person you may not want a grand wedding. An intimate wedding with family and maybe a few close friends may be more your thing. On the other hand, if you were home coming queen and your spouse captain of the football team, you are more used to crowds and a small wedding is more likely to make you feel like you cut too many people out of the guest list.

At many weddings you know that the couple is happy to be married but if you look at their smiles whenever they have to pose for pictures, you can see that they look a bit frozen or glassy eyed. When you barely have an album full of pictures, having someone following you around and capturing every moment for posterity can be unnerving. If you are not used to being in front of the camera, take the time to find a good photographer, one who can work without being obtrusive. Don’t worry they are out there - though admittedly they can be a bit more expensive.

If you aren’t fond of parties a wedding that lasts three hours can feel like a lifetime. People will tell you it is the normal thing and they are right. Just keep in mind though that the control is in your hands. You and your groom can exit when you feel like it. Just don’t expect to be able to sneak out. The best man and maid of honor are known for being pretty sneaky. They’ll find a way to give you a good send off.

If you are marrying someone of a different nationality or religion you may have little choice about doing something that makes you uncomfortable - simply because it isn’t something you grew up with. In this case, you are unlikely to be able to do away with these rituals because they are a tradition your spouse and his family expect you to take part in. The best thing you can do is immerse yourself in their culture and familiarize yourself with it so that you will become more comfortable with it.

If you are marrying someone of a different nationality, learning their language can be a big help. Can you imagine going through a ceremony without understanding a single word? Keep in mind that you will be signing a marriage contract so it is best if you can understand what the officiant is saying. It is also a great way to build closer ties to your new in-laws.

If you are marrying someone of a different religion, inquire about lessons into that religion. It is a good idea to be familiar with your spouse-to-be’s faith since it can help put you and your fiance on the same page with regards to faith. You may even decide to raise your children with these beliefs. Before you get married is definitely a good time to start learning.
