My mom likes it too)
Makes sense to me. Nice one
That was really good
Thanks guys.
A bride's maid isn't a runner up. And a Silver Wedding isn't the dream of *every* bride, as the answer states.
Great teaser!!!!
the expression, always the bridesmaid never the bride is often used to describe a person who always comes second(runner-up). i plead guilty to the generalization that ALL married women look forward to their 25th anniversary. btw thanks for your comment. my thanks to newf too.

This would've been too easy (or too general) but I thought it was cash/money:
to bold capitalists money can be a weapon,
to gallant ppl (or smartly dressed in one form of the word) money can buy clothes (or something you can wear which roughly = a pin)
to gracious people money is used in fund raisers
i got nothin for a bridesmaid, but for traitors money is a bribe,
to the swift or those who pursue (money) can be their guidance (or arrow)
to a bride money and luxury can be a dream.
