Weddings are rare and special events that mark significant dates in couple’s lives, as well as the lives of their friends and family. Weddings denote the joining of not just two people, but the conjunction of two families. Whether you are planning on your own wedding, preparing someone else’s or have just been invited to one, read on to learn what to expect.
A great wedding tip is to scout out the place you’d like to have your wedding at before you book it. Scouting the place out allows you to see what it’s like in person as opposed to just looking at a picture. It’s always better to see the place in person.
Make sure that your husband and his groomsmen have everything planned in advance in the days leading up to the wedding. Check that they have all of the materials for their tuxedos and that everything fits as well. This will reduce your anxiety and ensure that everything goes according to plan.
One of the things that you can do to make sure that everything looks good is to choose a bathroom buddy. This person can sit next to you in the bathroom to give you another set of eyes to analyze your dress, accessories and the makeup that you will wear on your wedding day.
Transportation is a key element to consider when planning your wedding. You definitely want to have transportation for yourself, as well as others in the area, that need to be able to get back and forth. Transportation is also helpful for those who have drank too much at your wedding.
I was at a wedding last year which seemed more like a circus. Not only did they have the typical events like bouquet tossing and garter removal, but they insisted on playing games throughout the night. Many guests won’t be expecting to have to compete at your reception, nor will they welcome the opportunity. Try to keep entertainment such as this to a minimum.
Do not try to please everyone at your wedding. Some guests don’t like chicken, and some family members do not like the type of flowers you like. These things are unimportant in the long run. It is your day and that means making yourself and your future spouse as happy as possible. Sure you can have special meals for special diets; however, it is your day in the sun. Let yourself shine.
Do not feel shy to ask the person videotaping your wedding to look at their previous work. You want to make sure you have picked the right videographer for your big day and looking at their prior work can give you an idea of what to expect for your wedding.
As you were promised earlier in the article, you now know something about weddings. Keep in mind what you have learned, and you can make sure to honor the happy couple appropriately when you go, or have the day of your life if you are the lucky groom or bride.
