But sticking to just those main parts would result in a quite boring – and quick – ceremony. A ceremony mainly consists of an introduction, the vows, and the pronouncement of marriage. Regardless of where you marry – a church or a garden, rooftop or gazebo – you’ll probably want to have a reader. They’ll provide atmosphere and a bit of entertainment as your guests wait for your entrance. Finally, consider having their services continue through the cocktail hour if your ceremony and reception are at the same location. You could have a musical interlude where a singer sings “your song” or a song that has beautiful lyrics, or have someone play during a unity ceremony. Then, they’ll of course play as you walk down the aisle and after you’re declared married. They can play as your guests arrive, setting the mood and getting them in a romantic spirit. You could hire a pianist, harpist, string quartet, violinist, flutist, or singer. While your entertainment company may be able to provide this service, consider your other options, too. MusicianĪside from your reception entertainment, you’ll also need ceremony music. If you don’t have any friends or family to ask to do this, simply assign the groomsmen to take it on before the ceremony.
Like guest book attendants, they can give directions to the restroom or gift table or answer questions. Having ushers means that you’ll have someone who can fill in those gaps or ask guests to move to the center. If you’re renting chairs, you may have just enough for each guest. They’ll probably leave a seat in between them and another guest.
It’s no secret that most people will sit on the aisle rather than the center. This could result in them sitting elsewhere, leaving empty seats in the front row. Even if you tell them in advance, aunts, uncles, and cousins may question whether they’re included. However, there is no one to tell them that unless you have an usher. Maybe you reserved the front row or two for your family. That is, until they get to the wedding day. UshersĪ lot of modern couples think ushers aren’t necessary. Your guest book attendant can explain what to do, serve as the photo taker, provide wipes for any messier projects, and more. Plus, if you have a more interactive guest book, it may require some instructions or resources This could include taking a polaroid picture, highlighting their favorite bible verse, or writing a date idea on a notecard. A guest book attendant will avoid all that. This means a lot of your guests won’t have signed your guest book.
Many guests may forget or plan to sign it later, but never do. And, of course, they’ll ask your guests to sign the guest book. They can even act as the go-between for the bride and groom or relay instructions or best wishes to the bride. They can give directions and answer questions. Guest book attendants do more than just stand by the guest book.
