I WILL be:

Walked down the aisle by my parents *this is a Jewish tradition, and the only religious tradition we will be following

Wearing a white dress

not seeing FI before the wedding - once we eat breakfast - we won't see each other till I walk down the aisle.

 

I WILL NOT be:

Spending the night apart from FI

Having a bridal party or maid/matron of honor

having parent/child dances

wearing a garter or doing a bouquet toss

doing a sand ceremony *seems to be traditional for DW Brides

having any kind of religious ceremony

using any kind of classical music for the ceremony

i have alot of the same things as all of you, but the one im most excited about.. MY DOG! My dog, who is basically my furry child, is walking with our BM & MoH down the aisle! Its going to be interesting because my dog is 130lbs of muscle (rottweiler) so it will be more like SHE is walking our BM & MoH!
