Womens Low Rise Tuxedo Pants are A Good Alternate To Plain Womens Tuxedo Pants.

Womens Low Rise Tuxedo Pants are A Good Alternate To Plain Women's Tuxedo Pants. The reason is simple. The low rise give a more modern look and fit a womens body better then a plain pair of tuxedo pants. The cut of the top of the pant is lower and the pants have no pocket so it is a good idea to wear an apron with these pants if you are serving people.

Tuxedo Halter Top And A Mini Tuxedo Skirt Go Great Together. This is a very nice look for bartenders or wait staff at a trendy restaurant. The halter top is a sexy look and is also great for warm summer days. The mini skirt compliments this look the best.

Formal Wear For Men And Formal Wear For Women.

Formal Wear For Men And Formal Wear For Women are still out there even though everybody seems to show up at engagements in jeans and $75 t-shirts. I guess that is why the new rage is to have black tie weddings. This is where everyone is to show up in a tuxedo to the wedding. You really can't blame the bride when she knows uncle Harry is going to show up wearing a sweater.

I Just Took A Ride To Philly For A Sandwhich At Tony Lukes.

I Just Took A Ride To Philly For A Sandwich At Tony Luke's. It was superb. I got the chicken cutlet supreme. It comes with bacon, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles and the chicken is deep fried. Man I love Philly food. That city has some of the best restaraunts in the country. The cheese steaks are tops. If your not from the area you may refer to them as steak and cheese sandwichs. Say that is like wearing a Black Bow Tie to a baseball game.

The Pink Tuxedo Shirt.

What a great idea to shock people with. Accent your tux with a bright Pink Tuxedo Shirt or other crazy color to liven up your formal wear. I have even seen bright green and orange shirts underneath some tuxedos but I don't believe they were actual tuxedo shirts. I think they were just regular dress shirts they decided to wear with a tux.

The Geoffrey Beene Tuxedo Is A Great Deal.

As far as deals go the Geoffrey Beene Tuxedo is definitely the best deal going. You could find a complete set for a little as $239.99. It is made from super 100's wool which is a super soft feeling fabric that you just don't find in rental tuxedos. The Geoffrey Beene comes in a one button notch collar or a 2 button notch collar. My personal favorite is the 2 button. It is a little more stylish in my opinion.

What To Look For In A Womens Tuxedo Shirt For Work.

What you want to look for when buying a Womens Tuxedo Shirt for work is how easy is it to wash. I mean the last thing you want to do is come home from a long night of waiting tables or sling drinks to patrons and having to iron your Tuxedo Shirt for the next day.So you want to look for a blend of polyester and cotton. This type of shirt is usually wrinkle free after you wash it. Stay away from cotton because they are heavier and tend not to wear as well.

United States customs

Most weddings in the United States follow a similar pattern to the Italian wedding. Customs and traditions vary but common components are listed below.

See also: Etiquette in Canada and the United States#Weddings

• The bride may wear “something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue.”

See also: Ceremonial clothing in Western cultures#Marriage

• The bride usually wears a white dress at her first marriage.^[7]
• A color scheme is often selected to match everything from bridesmaids' dresses, flowers, invitations, matchbooks, and table settings.
• Rice is sometimes thrown at the newlyweds as they leave the ceremony to symbolize fertility. [1]Some individuals, churches or communities choose birdseed due to a false but widely believed myth that birds eating the rice will burst. ^[8]
• The bride's family sends engraved invitations to the wedding guests, addressed by hand (or in an elegant font) to show the importance and personal meaning of the occasion.
• Guests send or deliver wedding gifts to the bride's family home before the wedding day.
• A wedding ceremony takes place at a church or other location, such as an outdoor venue.

At the wedding reception following the ceremony, sometimes at the same location but sometimes at a different venue:

• The bridal party lines up in a receiving line and the wedding guests file past, introducing themselves.
• Usually snacks or a meal are served while the guests and bridal party mingle.
• Often the best man and/or maid of honor toast the bride and groom with personal thoughts, stories, and well-wishes; sometimes other guests follow with their own toasts. Champagne, sparkling cider, or nonalcoholic carbonated drinks are usually provided for this purpose.
• Clinking silverware against glassware encourages the newlyweds to kiss.
• If dancing is provided, the bride and groom first dance together. Often further protocol is followed, where they dance first with their respective mother and father, then possibly with the maid of honor and best man; then the bride and groom rejoin while the parents of the bride and groom join the dance and the best man and maid of honor dance together; then other attendants join in; then finally everyone is entitled to dance. Dancing continues throughout the reception. Music is sometimes provided by a live band or musical ensemble, sometimes by a disc jockey.
• In some cultures, the dollar dance takes place, in which it is expected and encouraged for guests to pin money onto the young bride and groom to give them a financial base to start their new lives. This practice, as is any suggestion that the guests owe money to the couple, is contrary to etiquette and considered extremely rude in some circles.^[9]
• The cake-cutting ceremony takes place; the bride and groom jointly hold a cake cutter—often a special silver keepsake cutter purchased or given as a gift for the occasion--and cut the first pieces of the wedding cake. They then entwine arms and feed each other a bite of cake. In some social groups, the bride and groom smear cake on each other's faces at this time, which again is considered quite vulgar elsewhere.
• The bride tosses her bouquet over her shoulder to the assembled unmarried women; the woman who catches it, superstition has it, will be the next to marry. In some social groups, the process is repeated for unmarried men with the groom tossing the bride's garter for the same purpose. These practices are falling into less favor in the 21st century.^[10]
• Gifts are not opened at the reception; they are either opened ahead of time and sometimes displayed at the reception, or if guests could not deliver gifts ahead of time, they are placed on a table at the reception for the bride and groom to take home with them and open later.

Scottish customs

Scottish customs

Scotland is a popular place for young English couples to get married since, in Scotland, parents' permission is not required if both the bride and groom are old enough to legally be married (16). In England it was the case that if either was 16 or 17 then the permission of parents had to be sought. Thus Scotland, and especially the blacksmith's at Gretna Green, became a very popular place for couples to elope to, especially those under 18 and usually living in England. Gretna Green now hosts hundreds of weddings a year and is Scotland's third most popular tourist attraction.

Customs:

• The bride's family sends invitations on behalf of the couple to the wedding guests, addressed by hand. The couple may send the invitations themselves, especially if they are more middle-aged. The invites will specify if the invitation is for ceremony and/or reception and/or evening following the meal at the reception.
• Guests send or deliver wedding gifts to the bride's family home before the wedding day. Alternatively, the couple may register at department store and have a list of gifts there. The shop then organizes delivery, usually to the bride's parents' house or to the reception venue.
• A wedding ceremony takes place at a church, register office or possibly another favorite location, such as a hilltop. In this regard Scotland differs significantly from England where only pre-approved public locations may be used for the wedding ceremony. Most ceremonies take place mid afternoon and last about half an hour during which the marriage schedule is signed by the couple and two witnesses, usually the best man and chief bridesmaid.
• The newly wed couple usually leave the ceremony to the sound of bagpipes.
• There is a wedding reception following the ceremony, usually at a different venue.
• The bridal party lines up in a receiving line and the wedding guests file past, introducing themselves.
• Usually a drink is served while the guests and bridal party mingle. In some cases the drink may be whisky or wine with a non alcoholic alternative.
• The best man and bride's father toast the bride and groom with personal thoughts, stories, and well-wishes, usually humorous. The groom then follows with a response on behalf of his bride. Champagne is usually provided for the toast.
• There is nearly always dancing following the meal. Often in Scotland this takes the form of a ceilidh, a night of informal traditional Scottish dancing in couples and groups to live traditional music. The first dance is led by the bride and groom, followed by the rest of the bridal party and finally the guests.
• The cake-cutting ceremony takes place; the bride and groom jointly hold a cake cutter and cut the first pieces of the wedding cake.
• Gifts are not opened at the reception; they are either opened ahead of time and sometimes displayed at the reception, or if guests could not deliver gifts ahead of time, they are placed on a table at the reception for the bride and groom to take home with them and open later.
• A sprig of white heather is usually worn as a buttonhole for good luck.
• It is the norm for the groom and much of the male bridal party and guests to wear kilts, although suits are also worn. Kilts and Highland dress are often hired for this purpose.

Italian Wedding Customs.

Italian customs

In some parts of Italy, a party, known as a Serenade, is thrown outside of the bride’s home by the groom. His family and friends come and wait for the bride, entertaining themselves until she appears. The groom then sings to his bride to further seduce her. Once his song is sung, the party ends.

The day of the wedding the groom’s men try their hardest to make the groom as uncomfortable as possible by saying things like “Maybe she forgot where the church is”

It is also traditional for the grooms family to give a dowry to the bride and to provide the engagement ring. The bride’s family is then responsible for receiving the guests of the wedding in their home for a reception afterward.

The color green is very important in the Italian wedding. In Italy, the tradition of some thing blue is replaced with something green. This color brings good luck to the married couple. The veil and brides maids also were important in an Italian wedding. The tradition began in Ancient Rome when the veil was used to hide the bride from any spirits that would corrupt her and the bridesmaids were to wear similar outfits so that the evil spirits were further confused.

In Sicilian customs, the dessert course is often presented as a Venetian Table, a dazzling array of pastries, fruits, coffees, cakes, (etc) presented in great quantity with much celebration. This is often called Venetian Hour.

After dessert, more dancing commences, gifts are given, and the guests eventually begin to leave. In Southern Italy, as the guests leave, they hand envelopes of money to the bride and groom, who return the gift with a wedding favor, a small token of appreciation.
