Wedding cakes

(NC}—A wedding cake is not taxable
because it is larger than a single
serving. But if it is bought from
catering company which will also
supply the meals at the wedding
reception, the cost of the cake must be
itemized separately by the company in
order to be tax free. If the company
supplied the cake and the meals and
did not list them separately, everything
would be taxed, even the cake.

The cake would also be taxable if it
were purchased already cut up into
individually wrapped single servings.

GST affects rices, call the GST

‘The a

Honor and Best
Man: Their.
Special Duties

_Apart from the bride and

groom, no two people play
a more important part in
the wedding than the
maid or matron of honor
and the best man.

This honor attendant is

‘indispensable to the bride

throughout the wedding.
At the altar, she adjusts
the veil and train, holds
the bouquet during the
ceremony and lifts back
the veil at the close of the
ceremony. She is one of
the two witnesses who
sign the marriage certifi-
cate, She usually helps the

-bride dress for the wed-
ding, and sees to it that.
| the bridesmaids are

dressed and ready on
time. She is the bride’s
lady-in-waiting in all
‘details.

When it is time for the
newlyweds to leave the

reception to dress for

going away, the maid of
honor helps the bride
change, sees that the lug-
gage is delivered to the
best man, and checks on
any last-minute details.
The groom usually
chooses as his best man
his brother, a cousin or a
close friend. In some
cases, the best man may
be the groom’s father or
favorite uncle. |

The best man attends
the rehearsal and briefs
ushers on special seating
arrangements for wedding
guests. On the day of the
wedding, he takes charge
of the wedding ring for the
bride. If a ring bearer is
used, the best man helps
him with his duties at the
altar.

The best man helps the
groom pack and dress for
the wedding, then accom-
panies him to the church a
half-hour before the cere-
mony is to take place,
remaining in the vestry
until the wedding march
begins. He checks on the
marriage license and sees
that the groom has it with
him before he leaves for
the church. He secures the
clergyman’s fee from the
groom and gives it to the
minister,

He is the first to toast
the bride and groom at the
reception. He has the
groom’s car ready at the
right moment and after
assists the couple in a safe
getaway.
