The 5 trends I expect after the Royal Wedding

As I mentioned previously, the wedding of Diana & Prince Charles was the 1st ever wedding I can recall.  So yes, it left quite the impression.  Tomorrows wedding of Kate & Prince William will without doubt have the same affect on the next 30 years of weddings; royal or not.
Here are 5 things that I think we may be see a trend for:

• Shorter engagements.  6 to 9 months.  I am completely on board with this.  
• Grand Weddings. Big formal weddings.  Even in destination weddings I think we'll see this.  Thankfully, there are so many ways we can make this happen...even on the beach or under a tent.
• Trees. Trees are such a fabulous way to decorate a ceremony or reception site - inside or out. These days its so easy to have them brought in. 

• Hair jewels for brides and hats for ladies.  To be honest, I think the trend has been growing over the last year; but I think that we're going to see a major surge on this front.  However, as far as the tiaras go, I think it might be closer to the heavy jeweled headbands and head wraps that we'll see. I love these by the way.
• Back to etiquette.  Yep, I think we're going to see many more brides (and planners) pull out the Emily Post  books. Division of costs and duties, proper programs and nuptial services, and invitations. To get ready; read Emily Post's Wedding Etiquette
  

No, it is NEVER okay to do this. Part 2

To follow up my post from earlier today; usually when I give this answer to the question, "Can I put where I'm registered at on the invitation?"
Reminder: the answer is still NEVER

The second question is, "Well then how do I let everyone know?"

You can let everyone know through your wedding website, word of mouth, and bridal shower invitation.

Question for all of you: Have you ever been invited to a wedding and NOT been able to find out where the couple is registered at?
Exactly. So no worries....we will all find out where to buy your gifts or if you'd rather just have cash for the new house your building. Your guests will ask, just politely spread the word through close friends and family.

No, it is NEVER okay to do this.

There are rules that can (and should be) thrown out the door. There are rules that are okay to bend. There are rules that I think should be written. But there is one rule that will never ever ever be okay:

It is not, under any circumstance, appropriate to include where you are registered at on your wedding invitation. NEVER.

And yes, I put that in caps because I am screaming it.
The end.
