Second line parade wedding planning step 3, mother of the bride, roxygs.etsy.com

Now is the time to order your second line handkerchiefs and umbrellas.
For a wedding, you want to order umbrellas for the bride and groom. Usually the bride and groom carry umbrellas that have boas around the edge of the umbrellas and on the top. Please visit my etsy store to see umbrellas that you can order from me:  Click here to go to my etsy store for second line umbrellas and second line handkerchiefs.

You will also want to order second line handkerchiefs. The second line handkerchiefs I make have amazing designs, and even more amazing prices. When my son got married I knew I wanted handkerchiefs, but I did not want to spend an arm and a leg for them, so, I made them! Now everyone is ordering value priced handmade second line handkerchiefs in my etsy store. It seems like other folks want cool designs and they don't want to spend an arm and a leg either! Click here to go to my etsy store for second line umbrellas and second line handkerchiefs.

After you order your handkerchiefs, now is the time to decide how you are going to let your wedding guests know about your second line. If you are having your wedding outside of New Orleans, or, if many of your New Orleans wedding guests are not from New Orleans, you might consider purchasing second line explanation cards or second line explanation ribbons for your handkerchiefs. You can visit my store to see our second line explanation cards and explanation ribbons.

Many people have their second line right after the ceremony and down the streets of New Orleans right to the venue where the reception is being held. If you choose to do this, then you would simply have a friend hand out the second line handkerchiefs, maybe on a silver platter, to your guests as they exit the church. The umbrellas for the bride and groom would be at the back of the church also. This way, after the ceremony the bride and groom can grab their umbrellas, the guests can grab their handkerchiefs, and off you go on your second line!
