It will also assist the resistance to the abrasion when mov­ ing along the floor (it will also prove to be helpful for the attendants who may have to lift and handle the veil).

IF there is one aspect of weddings that brides worry about, it is whether to invite their friends’ children, knowing they may scream throughout the cere­ mony. If you are inviting children to your wed­


ding but are worried about how to ensure they do not ruin your special day, I have listed some tips below. • During the ceremony give the children


a small bag with perhaps a small puzzle and a small box of raisins. 9 Ask the photographer to have one pic­


ture of all the children together - they will love being the centre of attention and involved in such an important way. • If you have a mum with a young baby

then check whether she needs somewhere to feed the baby and/or change nappies. O During the drinks reception, have a


table set to one side and cover with paper (to protect the venue’s furniture). Then provide the children with crayons, pencils and one large sheet of paper, ask all the children to draw a picture and hand to the best man when finished. The bride and


groom could then keep as a memento of the day. • If you have a lot of children why not


organise a treasure hunt with one of the ushers in charge?

THERE were 109,090 remarriages in 2003, which accounts for just over two-fifths of all marriages in Britain. “Any wedding is a landmark in the fami­


ly, but a second wedding throws up a whole set of completely different issues,” explains Jill Curtis, psychotherapist and author of “How To Get Married Again - A Guide To Second Weddings.” “They do say that there’s no wedding


without some tears beforehand, but second weddings require even more sensitive and careful planning,” she advises. “Second weddings can also stir up a lot of


memories from the past which people think they have completely got over and so it pays to bear in mind that emotions - on all sides - will be running high. “People who are getting married also get


terribly upset about etiquette, and the questions come thick and fast such as, ‘Should I invite my ex in-laws to see their grandchildren as my bridesmaid?’ for example.” Delicate preparation is the key, according


to Jill, and she believes that you should always tell your ex­


partner and even for­ mer in-laws about plans for the new marriage. As for any chil­


dren who are involved, a remar­ riage represents the time when all hope of the family getting back together is gone and so how the children are told is critical - it should never be through a public announcment or at a party. Jill advises that


children should always be involved in some part of the ceremony. Ministers at The


Church of England, Church in Wales and the Church of Scot­ land are now allowed to use their discre­ tion about marrying someone who is divorced. A priest will


remarry you if you are divorced and your previous mar­ riage was through a civil ceremony, or if your former partner is no longer living. However, there is a


special marriage tri­ bunal empowered to declare a previous marriage null and void, the dispensa­ tion of which comes from the Pope’s office.

Half-term goes international


THERE was a real international flavour at a half-term playscheme in Clitheroe. Every day of the school holiday, 40


youngsters took part in a range of activi­ ties at the Trinity Centre. Run by childcare co-ordinator Adele


Kitchen and her team, the theme for the scheme was “Countries”, with each day’s activities focusing on a different nationali­ ty including America and France.


Making mobiles of all things Australian


and eating Italian-themed food were among the variety of projects undertaken by the youngsters. The week culminated in a party and


disco where children displayed the flags they had designed and made. Our photograph shows Adele (left) and


childcare play worker Rebecca Magee at the end-of-scheme party. (S180205/3)
