Activity for Renay

I'm going dress shopping on Monday, and I don't know anything about the experience!! What do you wear? How does it work? Does anyone have any advice? What should I expect?

How are you guys figuring this out? I have a few single cousins and I'm wondering if I should give them the option of bringing a 1? The reason why I'm asking, is because my parents insist on paying for the actual meal and I HATE spending their money....

Lol - don't laugh, but I don't have a whole lot of family and I've never been to a wedding where they've done the party favors.. How does it work? Is it one per guest, one per couple? whats a reasonable amount to spend per item? What are you guys...
