Etiquette Q and Answers by Mrs Beeckman

A reader asks about wedding gifts from bride to groom and guest transportation, and about proper wedding attire at various venues. Mrs Beeckman advises a bride may give a present to the groom but it's not universal, guests provide their own transport, and church fees are usually borne by the bride or her parents. She also discusses whether a bride should wear white at a minister's house or at a Justice of the Peace ceremony, advising that wearing white is not mandatory but traditional joy is encouraged for a minister’s wedding, and that a darker or more modest dress is advised for a Justice of the Peace ceremony. The column covers appropriate gifts for a fiftieth anniversary, suggesting gold items or flowers or books, and warns against a sixteen or seventeen year old meeting a young man publicly and bringing him home.
