So, you've returned from your honeymoon, rested and relaxed, your wedding day rapidly becoming a distant memory. But it's not quite over yet - there's still plenty to do after the big day.

After the Wedding Southend-on-Sea

So, you've returned from your honeymoon, rested and relaxed, your wedding day rapidly becoming a distant memory. But it's not quite over yet - there's still plenty to do after the big day.

Changing Your Name Southend-on-Sea

The majority of married women change their last name to that of their husband on marriage without realising that, although this is the custom and practice, it is not obligatory in the United Kingdom. As a married woman, you are entitled to use either your own name, or that of your husband's, as you wish.

Flower & Wedding Dress Preservation Southend-on-Sea

There are specialist companies that will arrange for the bridal bouquet to be dried, pressed and mounted, as a permanent reminder and keepsake of the day. If you are planning on preserving your flowers, you will need to look after them well on your wedding day, preferably spraying them with clear water as soon as you arrive at the reception and storing them somewhere cool during the celebrations and overnight.

Making or Changing a Will Southend-on-Sea

Marriage automatically invalidates any will made earlier. This is of particular relevance and importance to people marrying later in life or those re-marrying. They may have existing responsibilities, acquired before the marriage, which need to be protected after their death.

Thank You Letters Southend-on-Sea

As soon as you begin to receive your gifts, you must start to write those all important thank you letters. Whilst traditionally this delightful task was set aside solely for the bride, there is nothing stopping the groom from helping out, especially when it comes to thanking his own friends or relatives.

Wedding Cake Storage Southend-on-Sea

The top tier of the wedding cake is traditionally saved for the christening of the couple's first child. If you want to store your wedding cake for this purpose, or maybe to eat on your first anniversary, make sure it is a fruitcake - a sponge cake will probably not last a week, never mind a year!
