Getting Married
The wedding of the year should be your wedding, or perhaps your daughter's (in spite of the competition!). Are you worried about who pays for what? How many bridesmaids to have? What sort of reception you can afford? Or any of the formalities connected with what should be the happiest day of your life. In the studio to help you sort things out: Mary Batchelor , author of Getting Married in Church; and Sandra Boler of Brides magazine. In the Chair
