Planning Your Wedding For Others Too

If you had to pick one word to describe wedding planning, it would be stress.

Indeed, there is so much to think about that it’s not uncommon for the bride-to-be to experience high levels of pressure. From finding the venue to deciding of the music, the list is long! That’s precisely why a lot of future brides prefer to work closely with a professional wedding planner. But whether you decide to organize everything by yourself or to use the support of an expert, you will still need to define how to best make your wedding friendly to all your guests. Indeed, the best weddings are those that put the wellbeing of the guests at the center of the preparation. Here are a few tips to get you started:

The bridesmaids and the groomsmen deserve a heartfelt gift

The friends and relatives you trust to accompany you on your big day have a tough job staying on top of your expectations. Bridesmaids and groomsmen are not always part of the plan, even though they are often required to ‘perform’ during the ceremony and the reception. Consequently, it’s a good idea to prepare a thoughtful gift to thank them for their kindness. As a rule of the thumb, while your bridesmaids and groomsmen don’t expect you to break the bank for a present – weddings are, after all, notoriously expensive –, picking something thoughtful will make a significant difference in your relationship.

Dietary requirements must be on the catering list

Planning a wedding menu is highly difficult. Many guests have specific nutritional needs, from food allergies to beliefs and tastes. Professional planners suggest working with catering companies that are dedicated to providing delicious options for most diets, such as stamfordcs.com.sg for Halal menus, for instance. As a rule of the thumb, it’s best to propose a selection of dishes that meets the requirements of the most specific guests. A reception with vegetarian guests, for example, can propose a vegetarian menu, as it will also be a tasty choice for meat eaters. The key is to plan dietary limitations as a priority and not a second thought.

Are kids invited?

More and more modern weddings explicitly exclude children from the reception. This unpopular choice makes it difficult for families to attend. If you are inviting children, you need to make it clear on the invitation. Additionally, you need to plan for children-friendly entertainment – and potentially food too as seen here unbridely.com. A kid pack with coloring books, candies and stickers can keep your younger guests busy and quiet. You might also want to arrange for an entertainer to look after the kids.

Seniors want to have a nice day too

If you’ve invited your grand-parents or your old neighbor, you have to give them a chance to join the party without feeling uncomfortable. Plan for a warm venue or additional blankets and shawls in your wedding colors to keep everyone cozy. Additionally, informing your venue about wheelchair users can save a lot of troubles for seniors.

There is no denying that your wedding day will be one of the most important days of your life, and therefore it should meet your expectations. However, remember that it’s a day you’ve decided to share with your guests. Include their needs in your planning too!
