What is Portraiture photography?
Portraiture is the most widely used style when photographing weddings. This style is generally used for formal pictures where posting and precision are key. There are benefits to taking this approach. Traditional wedding photographers will follow a "shot list." This means that all of the poses you have decided on in your planning are photographed. There is little chance of missing something. The disadvantage is that the photographer is almost like a "wedding official," by directing the wedding party and guess according to the "shot list." You can get around this by having a designated person in charge of organizing guests for the photographer. This will also help speed up the process and help get the party started. From nuovobride.com

Why a bevy of bridesmaids?
In the old days of marriage by capture, a maiden was guarded by her family to prevent seizure, and in later centuries this little drama was enacted as sort of game at country weddings. The bridegroom, coming for his bride, was confronted by a bevy of maidens all dressed exactly alike. His part of the play was to detect his true love, "forsaking all others," and bear her away to church. as recently as Victorian times, brides' maidens often wore white dresses and even short bridal veils, looking like brides themselves. The best friend was designated first bridesmaid (or Maid of Honor). The Maid of Honor and the Matron on Honor are modern designations in line with our small wedding parties of today.

How did the tradition of wearing a white bridal gown begin?
White is the ceremonial symbol of purity and virtue and hence of maidenhood. It has been so since Biblical times.
About 1820, white became popular for formal occasions, although pastels were in vogue until the end of the century. When Queen Victoria popularized white at her own wedding in 1840, it became the official color for brides.

If you know someone that has proven to be forgetful or unreliable in the past then it is NOT a good idea to make this person an important part of your wedding WITHOUT checking on them.
True wedding story . .
The Bride's Uncle was asked to give her away. The Bride's Uncle lives about one hundred miles from the ceremony city; and this man has worked every Saturday from 7AM to 330PM for the past twenty years. In preparation for his niece's wedding he bought a new dark suit and took that Saturday off. The day of the wedding has come, and Uncle Joe goes into work at his usual 645AM. At 1130AM he sits down to lunch and his boss walks up to him and says, "Joe, what are you doing here? Didn't you take a vacation day today? I thought you were going away?" At that point Joe was hit over the head with a hammer, he was doomed, he totally forgot about Mary's wedding which was scheduled for 1PM, and here he was one hundred miles away. Someone else walked Mary down the aisle.
