WORK IN GROUPS:

What do families often do to prepare for a wedding ceremony?
Both families have to talk with each other to decide the place, the number of the guests and how to hold the banquet
Have to be sure to be in their best clothes on that day
Add your ideas ………………………………………
The wedding is very important to the bride and the groom as well as the two families. The wedding day is carefully chosen by the groom`s parents because they think that it will affect the future life of the new couple. Both families have to talk with each other to decide the place, the number of the guests and how to hold the banquet. Not only the bride and the groom but nearly all members in the two families have to be sure to be in their best clothes on that day. The altars of the both families are cleaned and well decorated. Then come the cars and the flowers. They have to be ordered in advance so that everything will be available on that day. Everybody is very busy but they all forward to that important day
