(via Have you ever questioned whether "Bridal Party" and "Wedding Party" refer to the same thing? 🤔) Have you ever questioned whether “Bridal Party” and “Wedding Party” refer to the same thing? 🤔 The Bridal Party specifically refers to the group selected to support the bride on her special day, whereas the Wedding Party includes the entire VIP crew standing by the couple—this encompasses the Maid of Honor, Best Man, bridesmaids, groomsmen, and the little ones like the flower girls and ring bearers. More couples are opting for the all-inclusive “Wedding Party” (or even “Commitment Crew”!) to keep things modern.

[showbride1]

What’s the difference? 🤔 👰 Bridal Party: Specifically the crew chosen to support the bride. 💍 Wedding Party: The entire VIP squad at the altar (Best Man, bridesmaids, flower girls, etc.). Many modern couples now use "Wedding Party" or "Commitment Crew" to keep it all-inclusive! ✨

(via Heartfelt Gestures: How Brides Celebrate Their Fathers on the Big Day) Heartfelt Gestures: How Brides Celebrate Their Fathers on the Big Day A Preview of Beauty: Presenting him with a beautifully framed photograph from her bridal shoot before the ceremony takes place. Thoughtful Tokens: Creating meaningful keepsakes such as monogrammed cufflinks, a tie featuring a secretly stitched sentiment, or a personalized pocket square he can reach for during emotional moments at the reception. Quality Time Together: Carving out a peaceful escape from the wedding preparations to share an unhurried meal or coffee—just the two of them—to simply be present and reconnect before the celebration begins. In essence, from a daughter's point of view, Father's Day represents a tribute to an enduring relationship. It's a recognition that while she may be embracing a new identity and embarking on a fresh journey, her place as his little girl remains forever unchanged.

[showbride1]

Celebrate your dad before the ceremony by gifting a framed bridal photo, personalized keepsakes like custom ties or cufflinks, and sharing quiet one-on-one time. These gestures remind him that while you're starting a new chapter, you will always be his little girl.
