Despite the natural desire to celebrate such a significant event, the newlyweds and guests should not abuse alcohol. Especially for people who are aware of their violent reaction to alcohol, it is better to limit themselves to the nominal dose so as not to spoil the day so important for those present.
Thanks
After the end of the wedding, or upon returning from a honeymoon, the newlyweds should thank all those invited for gifts and participation in the celebration. This can be done both orally immediately after the event, and in the form of letters of thanks. Thus, friends, relatives and all those invited to the wedding will be pleased to once again recall the significant event in which they took part, and to feel their importance for the newlyweds. Letters can be supplemented, for example, with photographs from weddings and vacations.
The bride's bouquet
For all unmarried girls, catching a bridal bouquet at a wedding is a symbol of good luck, not struggle. Therefore, do not jump above your head and push others around with your elbows for the sake of this prize. Neither the “winner” nor the bride will bring happiness.
Wedding Eve Party
Of course, a bachelorette party and a bachelor party cannot be canceled under any circumstances - this is a long-standing and well-established tradition, without which a wedding is simply unthinkable. But a hangover on the wedding day can greatly spoil the impressions and joy of the main holiday. And who wants to suffer a terrible headache under the march of Mendelssohn? In other words: celebrate, have fun, but drink a little and get enough sleep!
Welcome
It is common practice to greet all invited guests before the official part of the holiday personally by the bride and groom. Friends of the newlyweds are welcomed like all the other guests - you should not distinguish them, you still have time to chat in an informal setting.
Dress code
Dress code is a very important point in organizing a wedding. It is important for girls to remember that only the bride has the right to wear white on this day. Black should also be avoided only if the opposite is not indicated in the invitations, as an outfit for a thematic wedding. If the bride’s dress is short, then the guests should match and do not wear long evening dresses. But the stronger sex had much less restrictions - you can safely go to a wedding in a suit without fear of looking out of place. The only limitation is that the guest's suit should not be more beautiful than that of the groom. But these are just recommendations; as a rule, invitations indicate the form and style of clothing.
Avoid unnecessary worries
Friends of the groom and bridesmaids can significantly make life easier for young people by controlling the general situation at the wedding and avoiding situations that can make people nervous or upset. So, the lion's share of wedding troubles is removed from the shoulders of the main characters, giving way only to joyful anticipation. The same rule applies for guests - do not create chaos where everything can be solved calmly. Therefore, try to control yourself, even if someone stepped on the hem of your dress or accidentally doused with wine. On such a crucial day, many have a hard time.
Informing about plans
The bride and groom must inform in advance in the invitations about the dress code, if any. If the wedding is planned themed, friends and relatives should also be informed about this. In addition, if the schedule of your wedding day is tightly planned, it is worth informing the guests in case they have planned a surprise that could knock you out of the schedule. Mandatory group photographs should also be taken care of in advance so that by the end of the day you don’t look for guests throughout the festival.
Music
At the wedding, of course, music is a very important point. When choosing a musical accompaniment, the owners must make sure that for everyone there is something that matches his / her musical taste. There is nothing worse than guests who do not want to dance.
Responsible approach
Guests must inform in advance whether they have accepted the invitation and whether they will attend the wedding. Newlyweds need to know in advance how many people to count when ordering a hall, banquet, hotel rooms and your understanding of these circumstances greatly simplifies planning.
Guest seating plan
In most cases, the bride and groom know very well how to seat the guests, and, on this basis, secure places for the invitees. Guests should listen to the owners and sit strictly in their designated places, and not wherever they want. In order not to create confusion, you can pre-number places and tell each guest his number. On the wedding day, put a beautiful number plate next to the cutlery.
If a strict layout is not provided, then the guests are seated as follows: the bride sits on the right hand of her husband, next to them is a witness and witness, the bride's parents are next to the groom, the groom's parents are next to the bride. Then grandparents, brothers, sisters, close relatives sit down, and only then friends.
Invitation
Wedding invitations should be sent as early as possible so that all guests, depending on the date of the event, can plan their work schedule. If the invitation has been issued for a family, it is worthwhile to clarify by a separate paragraph whether it applies to children. But if you want to invite a person who is currently not in a relationship, then, according to the rules of good taste, the invitation is still issued for two people. The following information is included in the invitation:
- Time
- place of celebration
- dress code and wedding theme
Punctuality
There is nothing worse than being late on your wedding day. Guests will likely need a lot of time to get to the church or registry office, and then find a parking place. Plan in advance the route from home to the place of registration and calculate how much time you will need to spend on the road.
If you are still late, for some reason beyond your control, try to quietly take your place without making too much noise.
Congratulatory speeches
One way or another, all guests invited to the wedding should say a little talk about young people at the common table. This is a rather embarrassing moment for some, but there is nothing to worry about. The first word is given to the parents of the bride, then to the parents of the groom, after the witness and witness, then close relatives, friends and acquaintances go. Therefore, a congratulatory speech should not take more than 5 minutes.
It goes without saying that there can be no embarrassing and awkward moments in speech, and newlyweds should be presented only in the best light.
Room
To organize the holiday, the couple should adequately assess their financial capabilities and the number of invited guests, and based on this, choose the right room. When choosing a place, the newlyweds should make sure that the accommodation and stay will be within the financial framework of the guests and not too far from the place of residence. If it will be an exit ceremony, or guests from other cities will come to the celebration, then the responsibility of placing the guests rests on the shoulders of the young.
Parting
Before leaving, if the couple is still present at the celebration, try to find a moment of free time and express your gratitude and admiration for the well-organized celebration. Note what you especially liked, whether it is the decoration of the hall, music, delicious food or the dress of the bride. It will be very pleasant for young people to hear that the months of planning have not been in vain.
Gifts
If the newlyweds have compiled a wish list for wedding gifts, then guests should stick to it. But if, as a gift, the newlyweds, wanting to go on a trip, would like to receive money, but you want to add something individual, you can, for example, present some more sky lanterns or a small handmade souvenir. Thus, guests will be able to write all sorts of wishes for the couple, attach to the flashlights and launch them into the night sky. This can be a good end to a bright day.
Entertainment
Be polite guests and do not make the newlyweds entertain you all evening. Also, do not limit your own circle of friends to your companion. Meet other guests and chat with them. However, as in any decent society, you should avoid endless discussions about politics, family troubles or health problems.
This day should be joyful for the newlyweds, so forget, at least for a while, about your feuds with relatives, if any.
On the eve of ...
Wedding gifts
Wedding gifts must be given before the celebration, or during the wedding ceremony. If there is a special place for gifts in the hall, then you should leave them there. There is nothing wrong with the fact that the newlyweds will not be able to immediately see your presents. If the couple expresses a desire to receive money as a gift at the wedding, then it is worth listening to their wishes.
Recently, young people are increasingly compiling a list of desired gifts in different price categories, from which guests choose what they are ready to give. And the guests are not tormented with the choice, and the newlyweds will not have three toasters.
Wedding etiquette
Sometimes the bride and groom leave their own wedding before the guests, because they really deserve a rest after a long day. Many couples leave the next day on their honeymoon, and they need time for training. But here guests should fully enjoy this holiday, because it was for them that everything was arranged.
Dancing
Even if the bride believes that she cannot dance, it cannot be denied - it is their duty with the groom to open the evening with a joint dance. Then comes the dance of the bride with her father and the groom with her mother. Only after that, guests can join the young dancing on the site.
Honeymoon Tip: To feel confident on the dance floor, take a few dance lessons before the wedding.
Good mood
Newlyweds spend a lot of energy, nerves and energy on organizing a holiday. And less than they can be rewarded for their labors - your good mood and assurances of the impeccability of the preparation of such an important event. Even if you get tired quickly, you should not spoil the holiday with an expression of universal boredom on your face. Take a bit of tact.
Wedding day is one of the most important in the life of a young couple in love. And not only them ... This day is also important for the parents of the couple, for their friends and relatives, who sincerely rejoice in the happiness of loved ones. In order for the holiday to be remembered for a lifetime, so that everything went like clockwork, and not a single detail failed at the most inopportune moment, you should think ahead to consider a list of things, things and little things without which the wedding will not work (or it will succeed, but not enchanting). And each couple is worthy of an enchanting wedding.
Tip. Of course, there is an option to entrust the compilation of the list, as well as the organization of the wedding in general, to professionals - but this is an additional expense. Whether they are appropriate is up to the newlyweds to decide. When you don’t want to spend money on organizers, you can also compile a list of the necessary ones yourself.
Key moments of the celebration
How to make a list of necessary for the wedding ceremony? All actions and acquisitions should be divided into points, and in each of the points indicate what, to whom and at what time to do. And then follow the plan. Such a structure of the list will insure the organizers of the wedding from the nuances that appear during the preparation process, as well as from rash hasty decisions. A special schedule should be devoted to the process of preparing a festive event.
The first step is to determine a number of pivotal points:
- date of event;
- wedding budget;
- number of guests;
- whom to call on the role of witnesses.
After you need to deal with the formalities:
- choose a registry office, apply;
- pay the fee (in the registry office);
- decide whether the bride will change her last name (perhaps the girl decides to take a double, or the bridegroom will change her last name);
- choose the format of the painting (on-site or on-site);
- coordinate with the registry office all current issues.
Organization
The next stage of preparation for the wedding begins with the fact that future newlyweds should finally decide whether they will organize the wedding on their own, or whether they will contact the agency.
If the first option is chosen, you need to "tailor" the list for yourself, which follows a little lower, or make a similar one for the bride and groom.
So, for the bride:
- Dress.
- Fata (if you wish).
- Shoes (possibly several pairs, and always pre-worn).
- Handbag (if necessary).
- The bride's bouquet.
- Underwear, tights or stockings (two pairs, one spare).
- Garter.
- Jewelry and accessories (diadem, costume jewelry, umbrella, gloves, bolero or wrap).
- Cosmetic procedures.
- Wedding make-up, manicure and pedicure.
- Hairstyle.
- Beautiful underwear for the wedding night.
The bride’s outfit needs to be ordered in advance taking into account the fittings.
The list for the groom is a little shorter:
- Costume.
- Shirt, tie, possibly a vest.
- Shoes (previously worn).
- Underwear and socks.
- Cufflinks, tie clip, scarf, buttonhole.
- Shaving, hairstyle, manicure.
Necessary paraphernalia for a wedding
You also need to purchase paraphernalia for the wedding ceremony.
- Rings. They can be ordinary or engraved. Whether engraving should be done must be decided in advance in order to give the master time to create unusual symbols of love and fidelity for the newlyweds. You can buy ready-made wedding rings in almost all jewelry stores. If for some reason they do not fit, the rings can be pre-ordered from the masters.
- Invitations. Having decided who to invite to the wedding, the newlyweds decide what the invitations will be directly, which they will send or give to the desired guests.
- Ceremonial bottle of champagne. The one that is opened during the registration of marriage.
- Glasses for the groom and the bride. Here, as in other wedding preparations, you need to determine the color and design of the products. Glasses can be purchased ready-made (in wedding shops or in other stores) or ordered from masters.
- Baskets with pink petals, coins, sparkles, rice or other interesting friable things to sprinkle on newlyweds. They can be prepared immediately before the ceremony - the main thing is not to forget.
- Attributes for witnesses (ribbons, buttonholes or something else).
- Spare bride bouquet. Because at the wedding, anything can happen ...
Attention! Do not ignore the religious views of the newlyweds. Not because it has become fashionable today to observe ancient traditions, but because the wedding day should be perfect and bring absolute happiness to the young. If religiousness is not alien to the bride or groom, consideration should be given to including a wedding or parental blessing in the wedding program. From this, again, depends on the content of the list necessary for the wedding.
What else is important to include in the list?
The main nuances of preparing for the celebration and essentials are already described and distributed in points. Now you should add a few more things to the list:
- Choose a room or space for a walk (cafe, banquet hall, restaurant or place in nature), arrange a rental, solve all organizational issues.
- Decide on the decor of the hall or another wedding venue, prepare everything you need (balloons, posters, ribbons, flowers and so on).
- Make a holiday menu, order a banquet (or decide who will cook, purchase products, start the process).
- Hire a host, decide on the music (live or not).
- Develop an entertainment program, write a script, purchase everything you need for games and competitions. Buy and install everything you need for a salute, if one is supposed. Perhaps work out the other components of the show.
- Order a decorated wedding transport for the newlyweds and a car for guests (option: prepare ribbons, balls and other decorative elements - and decorate your own cars).
- Choose a photographer for the celebration, perhaps an operator who will make the video. Solve all organizational issues related to this.
Services for the newlyweds. What can you do without?
In the wedding list, it is necessary to indicate the addresses and phone numbers of the necessary specialists in a separate line:
- Visagiste.
- Hairdresser (one or separate for the bride and groom).
- Toastmaster or presenter for an exit ceremony.
- Confectioner, cafe or other organization, which is supposed to be entrusted with the manufacture of a festive cake and (optional) loaf.
- Photographer or cameraman (if desired - both at once).
- Decorator (if you are not supposed to decorate the hall or venue of the visiting ceremony yourself).
- The musical group or DJ who will play at the wedding.
- Artists who will take part in some moments of the entertainment show (if necessary).
- Dance director for work on the first dance of a newly made husband and wife.
What else should be considered?
It is important to remember that organizing a wedding is a complicated and troublesome business. Therefore, the to-do list should be worked out as much as possible, including even the most insignificant at first glance things. For what? In order not to forget about the important at the most crucial moment ...
The abduction and ransom of the bride has become traditional for modern weddings. If you plan to conduct this ceremony, you need to work out the script ahead of time and stock up on everything you need.
And finally ... What do I need to bring with me to the registry office? Everyone knows that the marriage registration ceremony takes place in the registry office. For the wedding you need to remember passports, rings and a pillow for them, as well as glasses, champagne and other necessary paraphernalia (in accordance with the scenario).

According to the rules, the photo shoot starts in the morning, first they go to the groom's house, and then they go to the bride. Before their arrival, you need to have time to do a hairstyle and make-up. You don’t need to dress, as this will all be fixed by the camera.

So, the most important decision was made - you decided to get married. Remaining trifles remained - to decide where the wedding will take place, how much the wedding ceremony is necessary, whether an orchestra, live music, video filming, toastmaster, formalities and so on are needed.
It is unlikely that you will be addressed by all your fathers and mothers about all these issues; most likely they will follow you on the heels and ask: “Well, so what have you decided?” In order to facilitate your joint choice, I decided, in addition to identifying general recommendations, to analyze all the "pluses and minuses" of related services.
Let's start with the things that have the lowest priority. Toastmaster... I caught myself thinking that, uttering this word, in my head arise, as it were softer ... not quite flattering associations.
Perhaps because in our middle lane there is a huge shortage of people in this "profession" who would be ennobled by a sense of proportion and tact, literacy and education, and most importantly an appropriate and subtle sense of humor. Toastmaster, in most cases, can significantly spoil the overall impression of the celebration: the toastmaster may not have charisma and oratory; get drunk and turn everything into a circus; sprinkle with vulgarities and platitudes from which the jaw reduces (however, the human factor exists in almost any area of \u200b\u200bour lives).
But on the other hand, the presence of a toastmaster at a wedding is a guarantee that guests will not be divided into “heaps of interests” and the feast throughout the celebration will be common; in addition, guests will certainly not be bored. And if the choice of toastmaster is taken seriously, with all responsibility, the advantages of its presence will have significant advantages over the disadvantages.
Music at the wedding - the variational range is very wide: a live orchestra, a DJ, a popular performer (group), the notorious karaoke, coupled with the usual music center. I would advise you to make a choice based not on personal preferences, but on the basis of the level of culture of the greater mass of invited guests.
In addition, such a moment should be thought out: during the feast, it is necessary that the unobtrusive musical background should sound; when the tides of boredom begin, the background should be replaced by dance music, which, again, is somewhat universal in nature (so that young people can dance to it, and not so much).
Video recording weddings definitely needed, only the skill of the operator should be at an acceptable level. The operator will have to conduct a small briefing:
In view of the fact that the celebration to which he was invited is a wedding, most of the time the newlyweds and key interesting events of the feast and dances should flicker in the frame.
The operator should not “tail” to go after the lady he liked and take pictures of all her movements and movements in space.
The operator’s love for cats, dogs, children is his own business; no need to take pictures of how a child is playing with a kitten for half an hour, even if the game is insanely interesting.
The operator is not a guest, he is at work, and therefore he should let the camera out of his hands in extreme cases (leaving for a smoke break, going to the toilet, having a snack, but not drinking).
In general, this way you can draw up a whole set of rules for a person who will shoot the most significant and important moments of your life. And this must be done so as not to regret the unrecorded, and therefore lost, valuable moments.
Decisions on minor decorations and attributes that, by the way, cost money should be carefully considered. Let the pigeons fly into the sky - well, let the cloud of butterflies out of the box (each of which is at least 20 bucks) - great, everyone bathed in champagne - well done! And it will simply be incomparable if such a merging of money was recorded (only high-quality professional shooting). Although, this is one of those issues, which is exclusively a women's privilege.
Dear bride, if you want to flutter around you on this wonderful day butterflies, pigeons, bats and other animals- it should be so! Men are thick-skinned, and all the same they will not be able to comprehend all the romance and secret symbolism of such actions, so I want to do it. And if the wedding budget is not limited, do it even if you don’t want to ... Because the main goal of this day is to leave as many pleasant and exciting memories as possible, to create the sensations of a fairy tale.
Decisions about all contests, foreclosures and other toys, in theory, the bride should accept. That's just often takes their groom. In this matter, I’m not an adviser to you, this is a personal matter for everyone, a lot depends on the affiliation of those entering into a particular social group, on temperaments, age and other similar factors. But if you are young and cheerful, why not fool around a bit, especially since the occasion is one of the most suitable ?!
Now about the most important thing - choosing a room for a wedding party. The first and foremost moment - the choice of premises should be carried out taking into account two factors: arranging tables in such a way that the movement of the sitting was free; there should be enough room for dancing. I recommend setting tables with the letter “G” (“P” - very commonplace). The letter "G" has been tested in practice more than once and has proven itself very well (besides the "G" there are other letters, if you want to make it original, choose it).
When renting a room, it is necessary to clarify all points: beating glasses and utensils, sprinkling young petals and confetti, who will clean, etc. It is necessary to clarify strictly, since there are not a few cases when before receiving money - everything is possible, after receiving it - “you misunderstood us ...” Waiters - number of 2-3 people for 50 guests. A larger number of waiters are irrational - there will be no sense from them, but they will take money for them. Another option - they promise 3, but there will be 1 or 2, I will take the money for all three. Therefore, you need to conclude an agreement with the institution - you don’t need to be shy, this is a normal, civilized phenomenon. By the way, the administration of the institution itself must offer to conclude a contract.
The moment is the following - you need to know in advance what is included in the payment (usually it is maintenance and rental, but what does it include?): How much does it cost to rent an hour, how long will the banquet hall and staff work, how much must be paid to continue walking, which includes maintenance whether the work of the waiters is included in the price of this service (it also happens that it is not included).
It is advisable to highlight the person who will control the grasping reflexes of the waiters. So that it wouldn’t turn out that out of 50 bottles of good expensive wine - “a smart boy in an apron” took 3 bottles with him, 300 g of black caviar (which is not 3 kopeks) will be eaten by a young child of a barmaid and the like. These, of course, are trifles, but you are not obliged to feed strangers, especially since you pay for their work.
In addition to all other cheats, the restaurant of your choice can try to get your musicians involved by setting the condition: either you take our musicians, or pay a forfeit, because people are left without work, or even free ...
Such a restaurant, no matter how wonderful it may be, is not worth your attention; there are enough restaurants and cafes in your city. Do not settle for such provocations. Yielding to this issue, you will no longer get off the hook of restaurant mongers and they will turn you around as they want.
These, of course, are not very pleasant moments, but it is better to know where to lay the straw, so that later, along with joyful memories, the sticky feeling that you are “completely shod” did not slip through.
