Wedding Plan
We should discuss our wedding plans.
It seems a bit early, but okay. Let's come up with a list of what we need.
"Seems" means "looks like" or "feels like". Linda is not saying "It is a bit early". It feels a bit early, but maybe, it's the right time.
To start, I believe we need to [vocab word=pick]pick[/vocab] a location for our pre-wedding [vocab word=photoshoot]photoshoot[/vocab].
"Pre" is a prefix and it means "before" or "prior to". The word "pre-wedding" means "before the wedding". Note, the word "pre-wedding" has a hyphen (-) between "pre" and "wedding". Some words with "pre" don't have any hyphen (e.g. "predate").
Sure. I wouldn't want to miss those photos. Also, we need to [vocab word=finalize]finalize[/vocab] the menu for our post-wedding dinner.
"Post" is a prefix and it means "after". The word "post-wedding" means "after the wedding". Note, the word "post-wedding" has a hyphen (-) between "post" and "wedding". Some words with "post" don't have any hyphen (e.g. "postwar").
We need to make sure it won't [vocab word=disappoint]disappoint[/vocab] our guests. We all know your family is very [vocab word=picky]picky[/vocab] about food.
You're so [vocab word=mean]mean[/vocab].
"Mean" here means "unkind" or "not nice".
Should we consider going overseas, or should we choose a local area for our [vocab word=honeymoon]honeymoon[/vocab]?
We could pick a beautiful location nearby. That way we can save money for our first house.
That sounds [vocab word=reasonable]reasonable[/vocab]. Let's focus on the wedding for now. Should we pre-order our wedding [vocab word=attire]attire[/vocab], or should we [vocab word=decide]decide[/vocab] when we go shopping?
"Pre-order our wedding attire" means to order the wedding attire before something (in this case, before shopping).
We should pre-order to avoid any possible [vocab word=disappointment]disappointments[/vocab]. That way we'll have a chance to try on our [vocab word=outfit]outfits[/vocab] and reorder if necessary.
The prefix "re" means "again". So, "reorder" means to order something again. Note, many words with "re" need a hyphen (e.g. "re-do", "re-think").
Good thinking. Now, what ideas do you have for the [vocab word=decoration]decorations[/vocab]?
Initially I wanted a mix of white and [vocab word=lavender]lavender[/vocab], but I've changed my mind. Let's pick something else.
Oh, really? I liked the white and lavender decorations. We'll revisit this topic later. I am [vocab word=assume]assuming[/vocab] we don't want our wedding to be non-traditional, correct?
"revisit" means to visit again. The prefix "non" means "not". "Non-traditional" means "not traditional".
Yup. Also, we need to [vocab word=respect]respect[/vocab] both our families' traditions. Let's intermix the traditions so we don't [vocab word=offend]offend[/vocab] any [vocab word=relative]relatives[/vocab].
The prefix "inter" means "between". "Intermix" means to mix different things together well so every part goes between other parts.
Right. Let's discuss the details later. But most importantly, let's decide on the wedding cake.
Do you prefer the traditional [vocab word=vanilla]vanilla[/vocab], or would you like to try something a little different?
Note, the "pre" in "prefer" is not a prefix. "Fer" is not a word.
Chocolate is my favorite, but I'm open to exploring our options. What about you?
Maybe we could create different [vocab word=tier]tiers[/vocab] with different flavors. We could have a chocolate tier for you, a [vocab word=lemon]lemon[/vocab] tier for me, and perhaps a traditional vanilla tier for the more [vocab word=conventional]conventional[/vocab] guests.
I love the idea! Let me look for a cake [vocab word=designer]designer[/vocab].
Sure. I'll start searching for a wedding [vocab word=photographer]photographer[/vocab], then.
I'll do some research about wedding dresses and suits. I can ask some of my relatives.
Remember, Ron, we need to talk about every [vocab word=decision]decision[/vocab] to avoid any [vocab word=misunderstanding]misunderstanding[/vocab] about our plans. Don't order anything without [vocab word=consult]consulting[/vocab] me first.
The prefix "mis" usually means "wrong," "incorrectly," or "badly." "Misunderstanding" means to understand something incorrectly (to have a wrong understanding).
I understand. Why don't we create a [vocab word=checklist]checklist[/vocab] and [vocab word=assign]assign[/vocab] the tasks? We'll each do some research and then [vocab word=compare]compare[/vocab] notes.
That's a good plan. Make sure to look at the prices too. We can't go over budget.
