Julz, I'm not a Baptist either (Lutheran here) but my mother was. I taught Vacation Bible School there while I was pregnant (although they didn't know I was expecting). After that, they made a rule that you couldn't help with/ or teach VBS unless you were a member... When I got married, my mother checked with her pastor to make sure it was ok for me to get married in a church ceremony. (He said yes, "if it were a small, quiet wedding.) My mother later said that she hadn't wanted me to wear he wedding dress (she said it years later when my sister wore Mother's gown) My wedding dress was was ecru (not white) which made her feel better. I never told her that actually its the veil that's the sign of purity and virginity not the color of the dress. (I wore a veil...)
