I have seen Ques hop plenty of times before, but seeing them do it in tuxes will be priceless!

My cousin (also soror) is getting married in May, but she has made no mention of wanting us to sing. Nor do I know how many sorors will be in attendance. The groom is not greek, so he does not care either way.

It really is :D

One of my prophytes who married a Que had her reception in a ballroom on campus, in the building where I used to work as a student. I was talking to some of my former co-workers a couple of days after the event, and they were so confused about how a wedding reception could cause that much damage to the floor :p

I think the idea of incorporating your fraternity or sorority (colors, letters, etc.) in your wedding is one of the most ridiculously cheesey things I have ever heard of.

I think it depends. If the majority of your friends attending are your sisters/brothers particularly with the D9 orgs where dance (and stepping) is a part of the culture of the org, it'd be surprising if your GLO wasn't integrated into both the wedding and the reception (where there is, shockingly, dancing)

Will I be having a lavendar and maroon wedding? No. Will there be something to include my GLO in it? Yes. I really don't have my wedding planned, but something will be there, even if it's just my pin on my bouqet.

So ... don't do it? :)

I've only been to two wedding where the couples were GLO members. At the first, the bride was a member of an NPC sorority (I don't remember the group - ADPi, maybe?), and her sisters serenaded her at the reception. The other, as I already mentioned, was my prophyte's wedding. The Ques did their wedding tradition as Wolfman described, and we sang the Delta Sweetheart Song for the bride.

I have been to one or two weddings where the bride or groom or both were members of GLO's. At my cousin wedding, she is an AKA, she incorporated the pink color into her wedding, and some of her bridesmaids were her line sisters. At the reception they sang the sweetheart song to her. I thought it was beautiful.

My soror-cousin that is getting married her colors are pink and white. She thought the pink and green was toooo much...I liked it. I think thats the neo in me!

Soror RitaMae...I think those colors are cute!

Yeah, my previous post came off a little harsh. I will absolutely incorporate my fraternity in my wedding....but it will be in the form of my brothers being the groomsmen/best man.

.........and if my mom has anything to do with the wedding details, the colors will definitely be very classic and traditional.

I've only been to non-greek weddings so I'm not quite sure I know what one should look like. :o :( There are a few members of my family, mom, dad, cousins ect. that are in GLOs though.

I heard colors are used quite often, and of course the members are always in the wedding, but that's all I know.

Teke's flower is the Red Carnation, not the Red Rose.
(And KKG uses Irises as a representation for Fleur-de-lis if she wanted to go that way...)

I like the idea of incorporating as much personal meaning into the ceremony and reception as possible. If your GLO and its symbolism are meaningful to you, why wouldn't you incorporate it? I chose hymns to be played before the ceremony on the basis of what was meaningful to me - so while some in the congregation were probably going "The Saints of God? That's not wedding music!" the important thing is what it meant to me.
So too with colors - you can just pick colors that are pretty, but isn't it nice to be able to pick some that also have meaning? I'm well-versed in the Victorian language of flowers, and chose flowers for my bouquets according to what they meant - but also included the white rose of Sigma Chi and the pink carnations of Gamma Phi because of their meaning. Cheesy? No - it could be done in a tacky fashion, I guess - just like everything else in a wedding. But it can also be done in a very tasteful manner. Borrowing the plywood giant letters of your GLO to be displayed on the church grounds - throwing hand signs at the altar - tacky. Pinning your badge to a ribbon on your bouquet, carrying a handkerchief given to you by your big sister with your letters on it, having specific, meaningful Bible verses in the service, a groom's cake in the shape of his badge, singing a traditional song at the reception - all, IMHO, very nice.

Please tell me she got married in September :p
