Weddings are celebrated at a series of unique events. Planning for those events can be an exciting challenge.
Many couples plan a weekend of activities for guests – especially those from out of town. Arranging the activities, accommodations and parties is a big but fun job. If you do not have an event planner working for you on your wedding perhaps you can enlist the maid of honor or other close friend to help organize these activities. The first official wedding event is the rehearsal dinner, usually held on the eve of your wedding following the rehearsal in the church or other ceremony location. It is usually the parents of the groom who host this affair. It can be held in
a home, in the back yard, at a club or the private room of a restaurant.
Do personalize the event with place cards and centerpieces at each table. A strolling musician or other soft music adds charm. The purpose of this event is to give all members of the wedding party an opportunity to socialize and become acquainted. Don’t feel that small children have to be included at the dinner. If some members of the wedding party have small children, arrange for someone to sit with the children or host a separate children’s dinner.
Don’t be tempted to make it a late evening. Everyone needs to look his or her best the next day.
