Wedding etiquette - hear what the experts have to say
I do wonder about Southern Weddings magazine's advice on how to respond to friends and relatives giving advice on the wedding planning. The magazine editors' response was to "Smile sweetly, and thank them graciously. Perhaps try this line: 'Well, bless your heart -- thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. We'll definitely take that into consideration." I think the response should end at "Smile sweetly, and thank them graciously". Adding the last part is a bit too sarcastic for me.
Etiquette is often dismissed in today's society but it shouldn't be. Take a look at the article and maybe there will be some answers to your own wedding etiquette questions.

Weddings and honeymoons in the Cook Islands
Looking for one of the most romantic place to start your new lives together? The Cook Islands are the perfect place for a destination wedding or honeymoon.
Weddings in the Cook Islands are legally recognized internationally and the couple only needs to be in the country for three business days prior to their wedding to obtain their marriage license. There are exceptions which can be made to the residency requirement if given advanced notice. The only documents required are passports and birth certificates, plus divorce decree or death of spouse papers, if applicable. There are wedding coordinators available at many of the properties as well.
Locations available for weddings range from an ancient limestone church to a barefoot ceremony on a beautiful white sand beach.
For honeymooners, there are plenty of secluded places to explore. The couple can enjoy candlelit dinners on the beach, have a picnic on a private island called a motu, stay in a luxury resort on both Rarotonga and Aitutaki in a luxury villa or hut on the beach. The possibilities are endless!
