Weddings are a celebration of love that starts the moment the event dates are finalized. At traditional Hindu weddings, the families of the bride and the groom start preparations for the big day to incorporate the richness of their cultural heritage and put a touch of modernity as well. And this is apparent everywhere- from the bride's outfit, the fineries and decorations to the pre and post wedding rituals. Music, which is considered as the most important means of making a wedding ceremony memorable, too has shifted from the traditional path. This is why more and more Bollywood live performing bands in India are experimenting with their performing styles for the different rituals, customs, and norms of the Hindu wedding.

For the stretched-out Hindu weddings, here are three stages to plan the perfect music-
Since songs and dance sequences are an integral part of Opera Garnier wedding the weddings, which also adds much to the grandeur, it is better to plan the music ahead of the event. This would not only make the organizers stress-free, but guests of all ages will also be able to enjoy to their fullest. On the whole, music completes the Hindu weddings, so special attention must be paid to its arrangements
Wedding Speeches 4 U is a great new series of e-books on the market that will give you not only the tips you need in writing that do-or-die speech on your wedding day, but also contains a wealth of face-saving tips in planning the event of your life.
The books are split into several sections, making it easy to use a quick reference tool. For example, in the "Roles and Responsibilities" section of the Groom book there is a great general outline of some of the responsibilities that the groom may want/need to take on. The strong point here is that the book is written in flexible language, knowing full well that all couples, no matter how traditional, will want to stamp their wedding with their own unique style and manner. The best of this section highlights what may seem to be obvious, but in fact is something that many couples overlook--the need to communicate with each other, and the other attending helpers so that there is "no overlap" in planning. Anyone who has assisted in planning a wedding knows that this is key. You don't want two different bands to be hired by two different people, for example.
Many couples get stilted during the wedding planning process because of mishaps that are caused by miscommunication, assumptions made, and the like. Which is, of course, totally natural. A wedding is a huge event to plan, and often the bride and groom are not event organizers by trade, so it takes a lot of patience, coordination and open dialogue for the wedding to go off "without a hitch", and the series definitely stresses all the major points, as a general guideline, to keep future brides and grooms (as well as the entire wedding party!) on the right track.
The series is great in that not only does it assist all those who might be asked to speak at the wedding; the bride, the groom, the maid of honor, etc. it also includes a list of tasks (in each book for each member of the bridal party) that can be applied to most weddings. Even if some of the notes in this section will not apply to your wedding, it will get the wheels churning, sparking creative ideas and reminders of important tasks that you will not want to forget, such as planning for the honeymoon, gift ideas for the groomsmen's/bridesmaids gifts, and food selection.
The bulk of the series, as one can glean from the title, deals with the giving of a wedding speech, which can be a nerve wracking experience for any person who is not experienced at speaking in public. Wedding Speeches4U is extremely helpful in giving general public speaking tips such as lengthy preparation, practice, timing, and sincerity. Although to many of us, many of these speaking tips may seem like common knowledge, yet as everyone who has ever sweated over talking in front of an audience knows, you can never hear this advice enough. And unlike other pieces on public speaking which can sometimes be a bit patronizing, the advice given here is in a friendly, understanding tone which will be sure to calm the reader down when they are fretting about this all-too-common fear.
