Things You Shouldn’t Do On Your Wedding Day
By: Lesley-Ann Graham
If there are wedding do’s then there are obviously wedding don’ts. Everyone wants their nuptials remembered for good things and nothing more, which is why we bring you this list of things to avoid in preparing for your wedding…
1. A venue with poor ventilation in the sweltering heat. The last thing you want is for your guests to melt at your nuptials or party. Help them stay cool by choosing a reception that has proper air conditioning. If there isn’t at least provide everyone with fans.
2. Keep the guests waiting. Their time is precious and some of them are also tired. It is thoughtless to be sitting leisurely in a comfortable waiting room for the reception venue to become full just so that you can make a grand entrance.
3. A master of ceremonies who thinks he’s a stand up comedian and takes pot shots at your guests. Definitely memorable but only as a really bad show.
4. A dragged out wedding program. Your guests will be bored and tired and just waiting for a chance to exit your party if you don’t ensure that the program is well thought out.
5. Strange, exotic food in the menu. You may want to impress them by having a foreign dish on the list but not everyone will appreciate eating frogs legs, even if it does taste like chicken. Keep the food simple, elegant yet tasty.
6. Games that are embarrassing, gross or ill thought out. Keep the banana eating contest and similar parlor games for less formal events. Better to keep any games you’ll have simple and fun for everyone, not a select few.
Follow these rules and your guests will thank you for it!
