Wedding Tips and Hints

Just a few bits and bobs that I've picked up on in the wedding business.
  • Take a pack of safety pins and a min sewing kit with you for any emergencies.
  • If the groomsmen are nervous about the speeches think about having them before the meal so that everyone can relax and enjoy the food that you have forked out for!!
  • Print out a list of timings and suppliers phone numbers for the best man and bridesmaids to keep for emergencies.
  • Put a basket of deodorant, body spray, hairspray, wet wipes, hair gel etc in the toilets for guests (and you!) to use.  
  • Make sure the flowers don't drip water on your dress by wrapping the stems in toilet roll for a few minutes before picking them up.
  • Before the big day create a checklist for the groom of things he needs to remember to bring with him on the big day.
  • Wear a top with buttons down the front for your hair and makeup appointment so that you don't smudge your makeup or ruin your hair by taking it off over your head!
  • Make a list of everything that you want back from the venue so that you can check it off the morning after.
  • Buy heel stoppers http://prettypinktoes.co.uk/default.aspx to stop your feet sinking for the photos.
  • Put some blank cd's on the tables with a note asking guests to upload any photos they have and post them to you.
  • Take a mini medicine 'cabinet' with you - paracetamol, imodium, Kalms, Good Nytol etc
  • EAT BREAKFAST!
