Your Wedding Day

By Tiffany Anthony

There are a few things you should be aware of when your wedding day is quickly approaching.

  1. At least 10% of your guests who reply yes, will not show.
    I didn't believe this one, and assumed it wouldn't happen to me.   It did. And I got stuck footing the bill for those ten meals.   It's acceptable to tell your caterer or reception coordinator a total that discludes 10% and then simply pay them the extra that day if everyone shows.
  2. No matter what you do to ensure otherwise, there will always be at least one thing that doesn't go as planned.  
    You'll need to keep this in mind so you don't allow yourself to get upset or stressed.   Just roll with it, and don't expect absolute perfection.   Many things can change ’Äì from the tiniest detail only you will notice, to big catastrophes everyone sees.   The most important thing about the day is the union of two people who love eachother.   Everything else is inconsequential.
  3. People are people.
    If you know that certain co-workers, friends, or family members don't get along,   be sure to seat them at different tables.   And be sure those tables are not in close proximity to eachother.   If an argument or scene breaks out, ignore it and let others take care of it.   Don't allow any negativity to effect you on such  a special day,
  4. Mingle, mingle, mingle.
    Be sure to greet every guest and thank them for attending.   The best time to do this is as people are finishing up their meals.   There's still mellow music playing, people are mostly at their seats, and   they're expecting you to come around. Many will have a card for you (feeling more comfortable handing it to you rather than depositing it in your gift area,) and will offer a warm hug and congratulations.   Ask how everyone's meal was, how the ride in was, etc.   Spend time with each guest, but be sure to move along so you'll have time for everyone before the dance floor fills up.
  5. Dance!
    You're throwing a party ’Äì be a good role model for your guests!   People are more likely to get up and join you when they see that you're enjoying yourself. And make sure your DJ plays the train song’Ķ so everyone gets up at come point.

It doesn't have to be a Hollywood affair ’Äì every wedding is mean to be a beautiful day of celebration. Concentrate only on what's important ’Äì you and your new spouse, and your day will be incredible!
