I am getting married- for the second time. Where do I start?

Some great advice on planning your ceremony, second time around.

Does The Knot have ideas for “Senior Weddings”?

I believe you are in a wonderful situation wedding wise, because the pressure is actually right off you to throw a huge event. Those who choose to marry later in life, or for the second or third time, often opt for a more low-key affair. Which will also equate to less money spent! Your day should…

If He’s Divorced, Can We Marry In A Church?

It’s wonderful that you’ve found your dream guy! However, if you’re adamant on marrying in a Roman Catholic Church, your honey must have an annulment from his first wife (if she’s alive). This can be a sticky situation, so discuss it with your fiancé and find out how he feels about seeking an annulment. If…

Do I Need An Annulment?

Good question! He likely will, especially because it was a religious ceremony, even if it wasn’t Catholic. For a final verdict, the best person to ask is your celebrant at your church, who will tell you exactly what you and your fiancé need to do.

Can We Get A Licence If He’s Not Divorced?

How frustrating! Unfortunately, it’s just not possible for you and your sweetie to speed the legal system along. The express purpose of a marriage licence is to prove that two people are officially marriageable, which means you must both be single. In other words, of legal age, widowed, and/or officially divorced. Hard as it is,…

He’s Committed But Not Divorced Yet

Of course not. Your family and friends can talk and talk — and it’s good that you realise that they only say these things because they want you to be happy — but what it comes down to is how you feel about things. It sounds like you are confident about your relationship with this…

Which Name For The Third-Time Bride?

The bride would probably want to use the name by which most people know her, right? If she has kept her second husband’s last name and many guests know her by that name, it makes sense to put that name on the invite so people know it’s her wedding! But it’s also understandable that she…

Gifts For A New Stepson?

How about a really nice watch? Maybe one of those cool pocket watches hidden in a gold or silver case. The symbolism of time — that you will love and support your new son for the rest of your life — is appropriate and a watch is something people use every day, so he’ll always…
