I am planning my second wedding. I was widowed when my first husband was killed in a car accident. This is also my FH's second wedding. He went through a painful divorce and both of us agreed we went through a time we didn't think we'd ever fall in love again.
With that being said, I've gotten plenty of unsolicited advice as to what I should and shouldn't be doing for a second wedding. (For example - "You're not having bridesmaids, are you? Just your kids, right?" To the girls who were in my first wedding, "What color dresses are we going to wear?!") We are doing things different / low key, and want our reception to be a fun party as a way to thank our loved ones for their support during some pretty awful times. At the same time I want a special day for us to remember.
I'd really like to know from anyone, are there any traditions you would skip because it's a second wedding - or anything you would consider tacky?
