Who doesn’t love a good wedding? They’re exciting events with plenty of opportunities to meet new people. Of course, you often bump into a few people you already know! When it’s your own wedding, much of the planning you do is to make sure the day is perfect just for you and your spouse-to-be, and one your wedding guests love.
But what parts of your big day are the wedding guests going to love the most? What will they remember about the day the two of you got married?
The Photo Opportunity
We all love the chance to pose for a professional photo! After all, the pros manage to capture the our best sides and make us look extra glam. Plus, we’ve just bought this amazing outfit, and the photo will be a perfect reminder of the day we looked this good! Wedding guests love the chance to be in a photo with the bride and groom. When you choose a photographer, make sure you give them your “can’t miss” shots including the groups and people that you absolutely have to get a photo with.
Why not book a photo booth too? Photo booths offer another opportunity for fun photos of your guests as they’re enjoying themselves at your wedding reception. And wedding guests love the interaction of a photo booth.
Congratulating and Toasting The Happy Couple
We all love the chance to sip bubbly! But it is perhaps the chance to honor and toast something that is good and personal to us that is most important on this day. Whether by a simple “Congratulations! We’re so happy for you!” said directly to the couple, or by a wedding toast for the entire room to enjoy, every sentiment is special for every person in the room. After all, everybody knows the happy couple, and they want to celebrate their love. Of course, free champagne always does taste pretty good.
The Food
Who doesn’t love a big wedding feast! And (like just about anyone else) wedding guest love good food. Chances are the venue you’re booking has their own catering staff and banquet menu. In fact, the food might be the reason you’ve chosen this place! Or you may have a fabulous caterer in mind, and need a venue that will let you provide the food.
Either way, if you’re having a wedding banquet, (regardless of the formality) then you need to plan the menu in advance, from the appetizers to the entrees. Choose foods that are familiar to your guests (you don’t want them wondering what’s on their plate!), but fancy enough for your wedding celebration.
