Thanks for your thoughts on the reception information.
The marriage ceremony is performed by someone who is not allowed to drink according to my fionce so I do not want to offend them. So I am wondering about how upsetting it would be for him to be around a lot of people who are drinking cocktails and wines.
She does not seem to think its important but I really want to party for my marriage!
We are meeting with church officials this weekend so I may just ask him and move onward with plans.
I did some reading on the belt - I see how sometimes my questions cn be confusing!! It is the gardener belt that I was thinking about and it seems that the women will pick this out for my fionce and present during their party along with silly things like underware and movies

so not something for me to worry about.
I'm exciting about this
