Pretty Maids: The best ideas ever to help your best friends look great
At the turn of this century, only an unmarried woman could be a bridesmaid. Now a best friend, male, can stand by the bride's side. A half-century ago, a bride was barely 20 when she said her vows; now she's closer to 30, ditto for her bridesmaids.

How to properly care for your wedding gown
Considering how much money and time are spent picking out a wedding dress, it only makes sense to keep your gown in perfect condition - both before and after the wedding.

Tips for picture-perfect makeup on your wedding day
Brides want to put their best face forward on their wedding day. And makeup artists give them two words of advice: be prepared.

Finding the perfect engagement ring
For many men, finding the perfect engagement ring is almost as difficult as finding the perfect mate. But armed with some basic knowledge about stones, settings and designs, you will be able to select an engagement ring that will dazzle your bride-to-be, without draining your bank account.

Groom's Closet: The right tux to suit you and your groomsmen
Grooms, take heart. There are some pretty simple guidelines on whether you show up in black tails, a striped stroller or a James Bond tuxedo for the big day. Mostly, you'll take your cue from your bride.

The long and short of wedding gown lingo
Shopping for a wedding gown can be overwhelming. For starters, the whole bridal shop experience is far more service oriented than most women are used to. Not only are the salespeople willing to help, it's usually mandatory because of the delicate -- and expensive -- nature of the merchandise.
