Answer 1

You can attend them as far in advance or as close to the occasion as you choose...the further in advance the better chance of booking a vendor you meet there and like for your event and the closer to the occasion, the better the chance of coming across something you forgot before its too late

Answer 2

Take these classes as soon and as often as possible. If there are issues, the two of you can settle them or break apart well before you send out invitations. Those classes are design to ensure that the wedding will complete the vows. The vows do not include 'until one of us files for divorce'. There is nothing more embarrassing/humbling than calling guest days before a wedding saying the wedding is off or getting an anullment weeks after the wedding.

Answer 3

That's a pretty good list. As far as bringing kids- usually the inside envelope will say "so and so and family". I think it's specified if it's an adults only reception or ceremony. I would respect the wishes if someone didn't want kids at their wedding, but as far as my wedding- I could not imagine not having everyone's family there. Family celebrating is what it's all about. Don't wear the same color as the bridesmaids. Unless it's black of course- that would be a coincidence. Don't wear a white dress either (unless it haas major prints or something going on). Don't talk with guests about no-no things like politics and religion. It's a wedding, so the environment should be laid back.

Answer 4

Depends on how long your wedding seminar is, really. The one that we are going to have has 7 1.5-hour sessions... I've heard people try to condense it and finish within a month, didn't end too pretty...

Also, I heard that lot of misc things come up 1 week before the wedding too, and I guess what you don't want is to add a seminar on top of all the chaos :)

Best of Luck!

Answer 5

If by wedding seminar you mean like a bridal show (or expo), then go a year ahead. Then you will have time to make decisions and book vendors etc

If you still feel like you have last minute details to think about, you can go to the one that is the week before the wedding too.

Good Luck

Answer 6

I believe its usually 6 months to a year before the wedding. A week is way too late. Check with the church to make sure!

Answer 7

Take your pre-marital classes as soon as you can. Should any disagreements or problems arise out of it you will have ample time to solve them. During those classes my best friend found out that her fiance was terrible with money - worse than she though. They were able to work on it and they are now happily married. Taking the classes one week before the wedding won't do either of you much good.

Answer 8

seminar? as in a wedding expo?

You can attend any expo/seminar as early or as late as you want to. My only concern with going there one week prior is that you should have everything already planned so you shouldn't have to go to that one at all!

My fiance and I went to a wedding expo 1 1/2 years before our wedding date (June 20, 2008, went to expo Jan 3, 2007) and are going to one Jan 5th, 2008.

I wouldn't go to one one week prior to your wedding day.

Answer 9

One year before the wedding.
If you wait until one week before the
wedding then something might happen
to prevent you from attending.

Answer 10

If you mean marriage prep I say do it one year before the wedding--the sooner the better
