If you’ve been invited to a wedding that is coming up shortly, then this article was made for you. Within the frenzy of the celebration, we quickly think of finding a suit, a ride and the prettiest shoes there are. Although, we can rapidly forget common sense, especially in public. Instead of bringing discontent to the wedding, here are seven tips on being the perfect wedding guest.
The organization that goes into a wedding is not at all easy. To stop the future newlyweds from being anxious, you should answer the invitation before the date given on whether you will be present or not.
The famous gift! The big, existential question that every wedding guest asks themselves; what do I give the married couple. Forget right now about non-personal and last-minute gifts. The key words are originality, fresh and personalized. Certain couples have a gift list already established, while others prefer money. Remember, the more the gift is personalized, the more impact it will make on the happy couple’s memory.
This rule is evident, yet many often ignore it. This color is reserved for the bride unless the theme of the wedding is white. On top of that, there is no room for light and seductive outfits either.
Is the invitation addressed to only you? If so, you go without the kids. Certain couples organize a ceremony without children, and it is important to respect their decision. The same thing applies if you’ve recently fallen into a new relationship; you’re better off not inviting someone who nobody will know.
Its easy to lose track of how many drinks you’ve had, especially if its an open bar! As the saying goes, moderation has a much better taste… especially at a wedding. More than just a question of security, you must equally think about your honor and not embarrass the married couple and their guests. Our advice, regulate your consumption, balance it with food and keep hydrated with water.
If you give a speech, do not fall into the trap of humiliating stories of the bride and groom, or worse, settlements. This is their big day and they wish to spend it having fun and sharing beautiful moments with family and friends.
When your turn comes, congratulate the couple and their parents politely but don’t keep them for too long. When you leave, don’t forget to say goodbye to married couple either.
