Tradition is awesome, but as you know, we like to shake things up a bit around here and give you some alternatives. Especially when the wedding tradition can cost you money.

This week we are going to be discussing wedding traditions and reviewing them. The level importance is up to you decide.

#1 Wedding Tradition: Wedding Toasting Flutes
