We have both been married twice before and this will be our 3rd marriage. From what I read on here, it seems that there are really no rules about what you shouldn't do in 3rd marriages. Is it proper to have a 3rd wedding with all of the bells and whistles? White dress, attendants, reception, etc? We will be paying for the wedding ourselves and the invites will come from us, but we wish to celebrate that we have both found the right one in a big way. Is there anything that you would consider in bad taste for a 3rd wedding that I might not be thinking of?

Dear Genie,
You can have the wedding and reception of your dreams with few differences from a first time wedding. Rehearsal dinner toasts should be different as dad isn't saying fare well to his daughter. And, the same goes for the reception. A father/daughter dance may not seem appropriate either. So, just consider the 'appropriateness' of each element.

Agreed. Also wear age and location appropriate attire. Blusher veils should be avoided. Just use common sense and you'll be fine. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
