Jewish weddings can vary a great deal depending on whether the bride and groom are Orthodox, Conservative or Reform in their beliefs. But there are some important Jewish traditions that many bridal couples want to uphold.
Set Up a Tiered Wedding Cake
Wedding cakes are often set up in a tiered fashion, which means they are stacked vertically on each other, usually with spaces created by pillars between each layer. Sometimes, cakes that are stacked directly on each other to form a tower are also identified as tiered. The easiest way to set up an impressive, tiered wedding cake is to buy pre-made stands that have pillars to support a top and bottom layer.
Clean a Yellowed Wedding Veil
Wearing a mother's or grandmother's wedding veil can be a beautiful way to incorporate that special person into your wedding. However, the veil may be 30 or even 50-plus years old, suffering the ravages of time. A common problem with old wedding veils is that they have become yellowed with age. Before you wear your veil, brighten it up with a few careful cleaning steps that will cleanse the fabric and lighten the veil simultaneously. The methods described are all natural and should be safe for lace, tulle or other netting fabrics. However, age will play a major role in what your veil can endure. Does this Spark an idea?
