Every detail for a fairy-tale wedding
Wedding announcements: which materials shall be used? What to write on the inside?
Depending on the style of the wedding you can choose handmade paper, such as Amalfi paper with the initials of the bride and groom engraved or embossed, for an elegant wedding. For a young and more informal ceremony we suggest a colorful and witty announcement and if your day will be nonconformist and extravagant, we propose an announcement made of refined materials and assembled in an original way.
The names of the bride and groom, the place, date and time of the ceremony, the addresses and location of the reception should always be written inside. The names of the guests should always be written by hand and at the bottom of the invitation and the R.S.V.P. formula must not be forgotten.

The clothes for the big day, customs and traditions
An ancient English saying goes: “Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue and a silver sixpence in her shoe”. So the bride at the wedding should wear something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue. However, not everyone knows the last one: tradition dictates that brides put a coin in the shoe as a symbol of luck and prosperity.
Tight, Frac, Tuxedo or classic suit: how will the groom arrive at the altar?
To know that the Tight is indicated only for formal ceremonies until 6 pm, while the Frac is indicated for prestigious weddings in the evening..

The ceremony, what the etiquette says
The groom is accompanied by his mother to whom he holds out his left arm and his entrance precedes the bride.
At his entrance the mother will sit in the first pew on the right.
The bride arrives accompanied by her father after a maximum of 15 minutes and will be on his left, this
because in ancient times, the father first and then the boyfriend, had to have the right hand free, in case of need to defend the bride with the sword.
Wedding rings are the symbol of the union of two people, usually made of gold because it represents eternity. The wedding ring should be worn on the ring finger of the left hand because in that finger passes the "vena amoris" (vein of love) that leads directly to the heart.

I momenti più belli della cerimonia
The throwing of the bouquet, the most important accessory of every bride, which according to tradition should take place at the exit of the church, today is usually thrown at the end of the reception to the girls still unmarried: whoever catches it will be the first to get married! The emotional cutting of the cake, which must be performed by the hand of the bride, guided by that of the groom who confirms his support and protection.
And to conclude in beauty the sweet confetti: 5 should be given to each guest, because 5 are the wishes for the new life of the couple, health, wealth, happiness, long life and fertility..

Dress code per gli invitati
The only protagonist must always be the bride, so white and all light colors that risk being too similar to the bride's dress should be excluded. Black, red, gold, purple and fluorescent colors should be avoided.
Elegance does not lie in pomp but in sobriety.
The bottoniera is the button hole that is located on the left lapel of the man's jacket and inside should be inserted a small flower "stolen" from the bride's bouquet, the famous buttonhole flower! It should be worn by the groom, the witnesses, the fathers of the bride and groom, always on the left side that is the side of the heart.
