I noticed 2 that aren't really correct etiquette though (I've read up on it a lot this last year).
Buying from a registry is definitely an option, and registry information should only be given out based on inquiries. Including it in invitations and wedding websites is considered tacky, though it is more acceptable to include it in a shower invite (some people may still see it as tacky, but I personally think it makes sense).
Wearing black is only OK for evening weddings, and has only become acceptable at all the last few years.
You only need to cover up a strapless dress if the ceremony is religious, particularly in a place of worship.
The rest of those are spot on though!!
I have a comical wedding etiquette book that I think you would enjoy, if you'd like to borrow it.
I think it's best to buy from the registry, but can be strayed from if you know the couple well, what they want/need, etc. Usually people ask where the couple is register. Or word of mouth. And yea you shouldn't include it in an invite. Your mom had it for your shower, and I agree with that.
Black is good for evenings, I think they were vague on some things on the list. I wouldn't wear black to Mels...but could wear it to yours if I wasn't in the party. I think it's just common sense.
The cover up one was kinda just dumb. I agree with ya.
well the 1st one is a good one. They have a photographer and its not good to have too many flashes going on. I'd talk to the bride on that one if I wanted to take semi-professional pics.
2nd one, their wedding is sit down, so you have to wait to be served with the rest of us ;) but there should be plenty of meat! :D
