hi everyone, my name is rebecca and my fiancee and i are getting married on may 6th. i've never been married before and i dont know much about weddings or how they are supposed to be performed. if anyone can please help it would be greatly appreciated. i have so many questions, i don't even know where to start....first of all, ill start with the simple ones...is it bad luck to see the bride before the wedding? (i live with my fiancee so it'd be a bit hard) also, when am i supposed to throw the bouquet? after we say our vows and are officially married? bare with me everybody, i lack a lot of this info, but if u help me out, i'll know exactly what im doing in the end and hopefully have a beautiful wedding...

Relax...planning your wedding should be enjoyable...not stressful.
I think you'll benefit by getting the following wedding planning books. They have all the basics, which I think you'll find very helpful. Of course, we don't mind answering a question or two for you, that's what we're here for, but for the general type questions you should review this book: Bride's Book of Etiquette
Another really good book has, not only wedding information, but etiquette for all areas of life and is written by Emily Post. It is one of the newest, most up to date books on etiquette on the market now. Emily Post's Etiquette, 17th Edition
Lot's of great information on marriage and weddings! Good reference for all aspects of life, not just weddings. Makes a great gift!
Now, for the answers to your questions...if YOU feel it is bad luck (I personally don't believe in luck) perhpas you could have the fiance stay with friends or family the night before the wedding. This is a great idea for a dramatic effect...so, when he sees you in the church for the first time, looking like a dream, he'll be "wowed" and have a wonderful memory. But, this is a personal choice. the Two of you should always dicuss these sort of issues.
Once you say your vows, the officiant will pronounce you husband and wife and you will be married.
Your banquet manager, wedding coordinator, MC or DJ will help coordinate the series of events. Ask them for a list and schedule of events.
ENJOY!
