Here is a suggestion on how to keep track of your wedding list. When assembling your invitations, give each address a number and lightly write it in pencil in the back of each response card. Place it in a corner. In this way, if you have family members with the same last name, you will know who sent in their response. Also, sometimes guests forget to place their name on the response card. www.socialgracesnj.com, https://socialgracesllc.carlsoncraft.com

If your wedding gown has a small train and you are buying a long veil that has many decorations on it, please try it on before you buy it and see if it pulls when you are walking.

If you are having your wedding ceremony at the same place as the venue, please ask the servers not to serve drinks before the ceremony. Guests do not know where to put their empty glasses, and they sometimes leave them on the floor waiting for someone to knock them over and break them. Also, sometimes the wedding party has too much to drink before the ceremony. Destination Weddings: Here are some things to think about before you decide. Many couples might think it is a great idea to have a destination wedding.
Here are a few things to consider. Unfortunately, many people you invite may not be able to attend. There is a lot of expense involved, and your guests would also have to give a gift. Most older people will not be able to attend. Remember, a wedding is about family and good friends. Do you really want to leave out close relatives and good friends on your special day? There is also more planning involved. You will have to take many things with you on a plane or ship. What happens if you forget a special something? You never know about the weather on an island. If it rains, you might have to go to a place that is not too pleasant. Wedding Attire: Some brides worry about what their guests will wear to their wedding. One way to solve this problem is to put on the reception card “Cocktail Attire,” or if it is a black-tie affair, to use the wording “Black Tie” on the reception card. Do not add this wording to the Respond Card because that card will come back to you. But the reception card stays with your guests. Bridal Bouquets: Here is a suggestion.
When ordering flowers for your wedding bouquet, choose small, dainty flowers. You have spent hours looking for your wedding gown, and I am sure you would like everyone to see it. Why cover your gown with a large boutique? Large flowers tend to get heavy and might overpower your wedding gown. |
