This last weekend I had a meeting with the bridesmaids and groomsmen in the home of the bride and groom of my next wedding . Together we went through the wedding planning and the Ceremony. This kind of  preparation is important so that everyone knows what to do when the big day comes ! It is of great value to talk about the expectations from them all , and that the most important people have the same picture of the wedding, and the same idea of what they are supposed to do; both before the wedding, during the ceremony , and afterwards at  the party!
There will be a wedding rehearsal the day before the wedding, very important especially if you have many Flower Girls (and Boys!), as I have sometimes. Not as common in Sweden though. 
The marriage ceremony can be designed in many different ways . The picture above is linked to an article describing some of the swedish wedding traditions, but I can asure you that they vary alot . The definitive personal design of the ceremony is created in collaboration with the minister or other wedding officiant who is to marry the bride and groom !

With this new design of my home page I start a blog. First input will be some reflections from my recent trip to New York. Visited Wedding. There were visits to wedding fairs and wedding shops, meeting with designers, wedding coordinators, wedding officials and others who work with the wedding arrangements.
As the first "teaser" I must tell you about the white orchids on the huge wedding cake at the Sofia Vergara wedding, "Gloria" in Modern Family. I have seen the orchids in reality, when I visited where these amazing cakes are made! A breathtaking feeling, I've seen those flowers IRL!
