TYPE OF WEDDING CEREMONY: Very Formal vs. Casual |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Very Formal A very formal wedding would be more likely to take place in a church, synagogue or prestigious hotel than in a garden. This is usually for two hundred or more guests and can take place at noon, in the afternoon or after six o'clock p.m. for an evening wedding. Some characteristics of a very formal wedding would include: engraved invitations; semi-formal dress for guests with formal attire for the wedding party (including a long train and veil and full bouquet for the bride); a sit-down dinner or festive buffet; a string quartet playing as guests arrive and either mobile disc jockey or band for the entertainment during the reception; elaborate decorations including floral centrepieces; a large wedding party (four to twelve bridesmaids); and formal photography with set-up shots as well as candids. A very formal wedding is generally the most expensive option available to you.

| Formal The ceremony could be held in a church, synagogue, hotel, private home, public garden or a historic building or clubhouse. Traditionally, a formal wedding is for one hundred guests or more. A formal wedding would include: formal invitations; a bridal gown but less formal attire for attendants; a meal (but perhaps a luncheon or simple buffet); dancing to a disc jockey or band; floral arrangements in a church or at the head table; a medium-sized wedding party (two to six bridesmaids); and professional photography. |

| Semi-Formal Locations for semi-formal wedding can be more varied and a single location for ceremony and reception is more common for a semi formal wedding. This style of wedding would include one hundred or less guests. Invitations can be simple, without inserts and return cards; dress is less formal, with the bride perhaps wearing a less elaborate dress (floor length or shorter); food may be in the form of a simple buffet; dancing to a DJ, simple decorations, a smaller wedding party (one or two bridesmaids) and mostly candid photography with a few set-up shots. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Casual or Informal Locations are unlimited. Guests can be limited to family members and very close friends. Invitations could be as simple as a phone call or personal invitation; dress is casual with the bride wearing a street length dress or suit; food might be limited to cake with punch or champagne or perhaps cocktails and hors d'oeuvres; entertainment is optional; decorations are optional; the wedding party may consist of a maid or matron of honour and best man only; and a personal friend may be responsible for capturing the event with a camera. An informal or casual wedding is probably the least expensive wedding option. |
