Second Wedding Etiquette On Different Topics
June 17, 2009 by Francina
Etiquette is basically the “rules” set by society to do things a certain way that is acceptable to all. In this post we will take a look at different aspects of the correct etiquette for second weddings. 
1. With a second wedding it is assumed that the couple already
has most of the items necessary for running a household and
therefore it is not considered correct etiquette to register for
gifts. Having said that it has become quite common to
give gifts for encore weddings.
Your friends may feel they want to give you something anyway
and you can indeed register for gifts like for your first wedding.
You may want to specify themes like art, linen or any
other area you may have a need.
2. The same etiquette applies to a bridal shower for
second weddings. A great idea for a second
wedding shower is to ask for items to stock the liquor cabinet
like glasses, ice buckets, shakers or a favorite bottle of
liquor which you can all enjoy together at some later date!
3. Next we will look at the correct etiquette on the cost
of a second wedding. You should not ask your
parents to pay for the wedding since they presumably already
paid for your first wedding. If they offer to help out it is okay
to accept.
You and your partner should discuss all the expenses in detail
and determine who will pay for what. Another way to do this
is to split all the expenses and pay equal amounts since you
are both getting married. I find the Wedding Cost Estimator
quite helpful.
Hopefully these rules on etiquette for second weddings helped to clarify some issues for you. You can read more about second wedding etiquette here.
