If you are a DIY bride, congratulations for making it this far! If you hired a wedding coordinator, good for you too because you will be less frazzled on your big day until the wedding reception Ohio. There are tons of checklists available online when preparing for the reception as it has more elements to manage than the wedding ceremony itself. This is a short article to point you to minor details that can make or break your wedding reception.
Take food for example. Are you considering food allergies? Are you therefore offering a choice of entree to suit every taste? If you elect to have a buffet, do you remember to label each dish so people with allergies can avoid them? Attention to everything is required for the reception, just as much as for the ceremony itself.
Every consultant or DIY bride has food suppliers that she can count on for quality and freshness. You will have to k now the headcount in advance, of course, to make sure there is ample fodder. A wedding typically has around 150 guests more or less, but you must be precise. Do not over count as it will add to the total cost unnecessarily. Be sure to include yourself and the groom if you want to eat!
Photos capture the heart of the event and you will want to take plenty both during the ceremony and the reception. You will want candid and posed shots and each and every guest. A good photographer will make the rounds and include everyone. If there is someone special, let them know in advance so they won't be missed. It is too late at the end of the reception.
Music creates just the right ambience and the play list should be carefully selected in advance. There are the tried and true wedding tunes, but you can also be imaginative. Pick something special and meaningful to you for the couples' dance. Make it memorable for you and your guests.
Meet your host before the program. Your host will command the aura of the party. Through this meeting, you can hear if it is better for him or her to speak in the language you prefer. Moreover, you can discuss the program flow and acknowledging honorable guests at the dinner party.
Bring a simple clutch that matches your wedding gown but is neutral enough to be carried by your groom. If you have a touch up kit, empty it and use that one. Once you are out of the reception area, there will be no opportunity to touch up anyway. The checks and money envelopes guests will give will go in this trusty bag. Make sure that all money related paperwork go to this clutch and always keep an eye on this bag
Finally, a change of shoes is often a welcome relief for the bride's tired feet. There are portable slip ons that fit in a bag. You will be greeting guests, dancing, and generally out and about so pack in advance when your mind is clear. There are many more details that must be taken into consideration. Use the skills of your coordinator to ensure a fine day.
