1 wedding: The term "wedding" refers to the celebration event of two people getting married. The term differs in meaning from "marriage" which describes a legal union between two people (not the ceremony). The verb "to wed" is to get married. "Newly-weds" are a newly-married couple.
2 bride: The "bride" is the woman getting married or who has recently been married. Example: "The bride looked lovely in her white dress." Before the wedding, this woman may have a "hen party" with her female friends.
3 groom: The "groom" (or "bridegroom") is the man getting married or who has recently been married. Example: "The groom looked very nervous when the bride walked up the aisle." Before the wedding, this man may have a "stag party" (or "bachelor party") with his male friends.
4 ring: The "(wedding) ring" is a piece of jewellery worn on the 3rd finger on the left hand, and symbolises a marriage. During a wedding ceremony, the bride and groom will give each other rings. The ring is usually a precious metal such as gold or platinum. Note that before the ceremony, a man may give his partner an "engagement ring" to symbolise his promise to marry.
5 husband: A "husband" is a male spouse: a man who is married. Example: I've been married to my husband for 30 years, and I regret every single day.
6 wife: A "wife" (plural "wives") is a female spouse: a woman who is married. Example: I married my wife 30 years ago, and I still love her.
7 honeymoon: A "honeymoon" is a holiday or trip that is taken by a couple after getting married. Brian refers to his (false) "honeymoon" to London with Hannah in the subject line of his email. The term can also refer to the early, calm period of a (business or political) relationship. Example: The honeymoon between the press and President is now over.

According to Susie's description of Delavigne's "target market" for TigerLily, which of the following people would be most likely to purchase a bottle of the perfume?
According to Susie's description of Delavigne's "target market" for TigerLily, which of the following people would be most likely to purchase a bottle of the perfume?
Because Melanie is a "high-school graduate", she is too young to be part of the target age described by Susie. Also because Melanie has a "longtime boyfriend", she doesn't fit into the category of "divorced, love-starved" women.
Because Sarah is a "senior citizen", which means she is over the age of 65, she does not fit the description given by Susie.
This is the best choice here. Susie says that Delavigne is targeting "divorced women, aged 29-55". Amanda fits these criteria better than any of the other choices.
Because Susie says that the product is targeting "women", John is not the best choice here.
