Or the two families share the costs. Many parents of brides think this is a wonderful idea.
MARIO RITTER: Many couples plan their weddings themselves. But some hire a wedding planner to organize everything for them. The planner helps the bride find a wedding dress as well as dresses for her bridesmaids.
The planner helps find a place for the reception after the ceremony. And the planner organizes all the details for the celebration, from the flowers to the food to the entertainment.
Finally, during the ceremony and reception, the planner makes sure that everything takes place as planned.

KATHERINE COLE: Some couples have a religious ceremony. Others have a civil wedding before a judge or some other official. And some have both.
During a wedding, the couple might read special vows or promises that they have written for each other.
Many ceremonies share common customs. For example, the bride may wear a long white dress and have a white veil over her face.
An old tradition says brides should wear something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue. These four things are supposed to bring good luck.
The groom traditionally wears a tuxedo. Picture a nervous penguin if the suit is black and the shirt is white.
Usually the bride's father or another relative walks her down the aisle and presents her to the groom. Sometimes both parents share this tradition.
