Arlene Pecora Gives Advice on Choosing Your Bridesmaids
With all of the stress involved with planning your own wedding, there is one more key item that you need to focus on: Choosing your bridesmaids. Arlene Pecora recommends several things to consider before choosing your special ladies:
Can’t we all just get along
Before choosing your bridal party you must consider each woman and there personality. Ask yourself do we all get along well, can we work together as a group without conflict? If not you should consider choosing mutual friends because nothing is worse on your wedding day than fighting bridesmaids.
Bridesmaids status
Before choosing consider all the situations that your bridal party is in. Are they having financial trouble, are they pregnant, or are they just a really busy person. If they are just to busy or can not fulfill the obligations that are needed by the bridesmaids then you should think twice before choosing them.
Before you choose
Sometimes the bridesmaid that you choose will not live in your area. You should consider this before taking the plunge and saying yes before you think things out. Ask yourself will this person always be available, have reliable transportation, and be there for me with in a blink of an eye? If not you should possibly consider someone else. – Read More Here

Arlene Pecora and Unity Ceremonies
Arlene Pecora and Signature Grand are announcing the hottest bridal tradition this bridal season: UNITY CEREMONY!
This ceremony can be practiced in two methods: Sand and Candle. Symbolizing unity of two families, this beautiful ceremony can be incorporated during your actual nuptials or during your reception.
From Arlene Pecora:
A wedding ceremony of any kind is steeped in traditions, sometimes religious and sometimes secular, which vary according to the particular backgrounds and desires of the bride and groom. A unity ceremony, as part of the wedding ceremony, acknowledges the contributions of the bride’s family, the groom’s family and sometimes their children, to the marriage.
There are two types of unity ceremonies that are popular as part of the modern American wedding ceremony. One unites the flames of 3 candles. It is of unknown origin and may have to do with African tribal traditions. The other uses the blending of different colored sands and likely has its origins in Hawaiian or Native American traditions. Regardless, they are both beautiful and meaningful. - Read Full Article
