THEME:   none, but four triples   
GOOD ONES:     Short and sweet, e.g.   ADJs      
BTW:   Wedding to-do list item   ORDER A LIMO [we order a cake and rent a limo, but I guess we order a rental]      
Haberdashery supply   TIE PINS [yes, and they sit at the bottom of jewelry boxes of old men around the country, so I'd add "once"]      
Employment org. of 1935   WPA [the 21st Century version was "shovel-ready jobs," but the president "says more in a minute then he will stand to in a month"] (Forgive the politics but not the Shakespeare.)      
What this puzzle lacked in clever clues it compensated for by tough ones.      
RATING:    
 
 
Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun
