When it comes to weddings, there are tons of \u201crules\u201d and traditions. That\u2019s for the first one. But what if you\u2019re on your second go-round? Things aren\u2019t quite so clear. With years of experience in providing high-quality cubic zirconia engagement and wedding ring<\/a>s, Birkat Elyon<\/a> offers these tips for couples taking the plunge\u2026again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The beauty part about a second wedding is that you\u2019re a lot\nfreer to do what you want. Some etiquette experts suggest that couples keep it\nlow-key, but it\u2019s not a rule. If you want a big blow-out, go for it; if you\nwant to stick to just your closest friends and family, that\u2019s cool too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The question of wearing a white dress and veil comes up a lot. Answer? It\u2019s totally fine. If a veil feels weird, second brides swap it out for a tiara, flowers or even a hat. The rule of thumb is to wear what makes you feel most beautiful and comfortable. Birkat Elyon offers many gorgeous CZ jewelry pieces like earrings<\/a>, bracelets<\/a>, and necklaces<\/a> to accent your look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What about walking the bride down the aisle? If the father\nhas already done it, think about new ways to incorporate family members into\nthat part of the ceremony. For couples on their second wedding, there are\nopportunities to bring stepchildren into the mix in a meaningful way. They can\naccompany the bride down the aisle, do readings during the ceremony and be\ninvolved in other creative ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a first wedding, a bridal registry is traditional to\nhelp the couple set up house. For a second wedding, it\u2019s a little different.\nYou may have the basics, but it\u2019s perfectly OK to ask for some specific things\nlike new china to mark your fresh start together. Some couples request items\nrelated to a shared hobby, like skiing. A registry gives guests an easy way to\npay tribute to your new life. However, one thing NEVER to do? Ask for money.\nThat\u2019s just\u2026 tacky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On their second go, many couples opt for a more relaxed approach to their ceremony, such as a daytime venue or something fun and silly. Per etiquette experts, it\u2019s fine to have a bridal party (and their duties would be the same as for a first wedding), but many couples choose to have a single attendant for both bride and groom. In that case, their dress code would be less formal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to a second-wedding reception, the trend is to\ngo more low-key. However, traditions like the wedding entrance, parent dances,\nand cutting the cake are still in vogue. It\u2019s recommended to add fresh touches\nto this reception so it\u2019s not a carbon copy of your first one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bottom line: a second wedding is something to be celebrated\nin your own unique way. Make it special and memorable!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
