Shirley Griner, former wed
ding consultant and owner of
the Weil Mansion Bed and
Breakfast, 1149 S. 17^*, said gen

"It’s not like it used to be as

Bedient said that couples
should use the wedding
arrangements as an opportuni

have to make decisions together
for the rest of their lives.
“There aren’t any hard and
fast rules,” she said. “It’s just a
teamwork effort.”
