A Wedding to Remember Means Remembering the Little Things
The big day is quickly approaching and you're scared you have forgotten something important.
With everything that has to be planned, scheduled, picked up, and just about anything else you can imagine, it's easy to see where something can be overlooked.
Here are some of the most common "little things" that are often forgotten.
Far too many brides forgo this most important part of the wedding, especially if it is to be a small affair.
Before you even start to write out the invitation list, you need to locate a checklist for the wedding from start to finish.
Most will contain a timeline as well, which can really help when it comes to scheduling.
Make use of this important wedding tool, even if you are planning an intimate wedding.
Coat Checker If your wedding is planned for the fall or winter, you'll need a coat checker.
This is often overlooked, but is a pretty important role.
Your guests will appreciate the gesture, but they will also be more comfortable during the ceremony.
The coat checker is also needed at the reception.
Clean Up Crew Not exactly one of the favorite jobs, but someone has to do it.
Make sure you have arranged for the wedding venue to be cleaned after use.
Many venues will take care of the clean up themselves, but some will require that you leave the building and grounds in the condition you found them.
Ask for volunteers, but if none are forthcoming, you may want to hire a crew.
Then you can enjoy the evening without worry.
Passports Depending on where you plan to honeymoon, make sure the passports are current.
Imagine arriving at the airport of your honeymoon destination only to be denied entry due to an expired passport.
Due to new security concerns, it's now taking much longer to receive a new passport as well.
Make sure this "little thing" is not forgotten.
Pins and Pens Pins and pens are very easily forgotten.
You'll need boutonnières pins for the groom and it certainly doesn't hurt to have one or tow more to handle any type of sewing emergency.
Pens are also needed for guestbook and those last minute guests that are still signing the gift cards.
Wedding Cars Don't wait until the last minute to reserve your wedding cars.
You may have a difficult time locating just the make and model you want.
By reserving the wedding cars as soon as you know your wedding date, you can ensure all of your wedding party will have transportation, and first rate transportation at that, to your ceremony.
A Final Thought Even if you forget something on your wedding day, it's not the end of the world.
It's still the beginning of your life together and something you can both laugh about later on.
Far too many people put more emphasis on the wedding than they do the words spoken at it.
Isn't it more important to worry about what is being said than who is cleaning up afterwards.
