DEAR MISS MANNERS: I am a musician who is regularly hired to perform at weddings. In the past, I have used the phrase “bridal entrance” to describe one of the services I provide.
Can you suggest some nongendered words that can be used to substitute for “bride” and “groom”? I have heard people suggest “nearlywed,” but to me this sounds a little cutesy. However, if you think this is a fine word to use, I will gladly do so. Miss Manners would be remiss, however, if she did not point out that the whole practice of having a musician or DJ announce the marrying couple is unseemly in the first place. This is a serious occasion, not an awards ceremony. But she has no desire to put you out of business -- only to point out, perhaps unkindly, that etiquette does not acknowledge your problem in the first place.
I want to improve the existing fence that separates our properties, extending the privacy fence to block their unkempt yard. My husband says it would be unkind to do that to our new neighbors.
