How To Be A Good Guest
16 Aug, 2012

An invitation is coming your way from a family member or a good friend or both. It is an honor to be selected to help the couple celebrate a wonderful part of their life. If you RSVP with a positive response, you become an official guest at this party. You will no doubt bring an appropriate wedding gift, but did you know that another gift you give to the couple is the knowledge of how to be a good guest, and the wisdom to use that knowledge.

Here is a checklist of do’s and don’t that you can follow to insure that your behavior will not cause the couple to grimace on their 10th anniversary as they recall events from their wedding.

DO

  • Make sure to send your RSVP in a timely manner.
  • Arrive at the wedding at least 10 minutes before the ceremony is to begin.
  • Stay standing at the back of the church if you are going to be late.
  • Keep your cell phone on silent.
  • Dress appropriately.
  • Have fun dancing but do not call attention to yourself or your partner.
  • Respect the couple’s wishes even if they aren’t what you would choose.

DON’T

  • Change your mind about attending so that you cancel and then show up anyway.
  • Sit in a front row. That is for the immediate family only.
  • Text or tweet or blog during the ceremony
  • Wear jeans or other inappropriate wear unless requested by the couple
  • Get in the way of the professional photographer doing his job.
  • Trash talk the couple’s choices.

  Testimonials  
  In 2011 my husband and I had the pleasure of working with Marilyn in realising our dreams for our big day.

We had meetings with several planners, but Marilyn stole our hearts with her charm. I was looking for a personal experience, someone I could have a great relationship with and whom I could really depend on…and that’s exactly what I got!

Marilyn exudes professionalism and class, keeps abreast with trends which adds to her extensive knowledge and experience, is well informed of proper etiquette (which helped us deal with those sometimes awkward moments), is resourceful and quite a negotiator! We appreciated most about her, her patience and willingness to always accommodate us even with our busy schedules, her ability to genuinely guide us in the right direction and her tranquil composure, always managing to calm down a very nervous, worrying and particular bride-to-be.

It’s easy to see that she’s very passionate about what she does and that translates into a very happy client. I would definitely recommend TriniWeddings for a very stress-free and calm but exciting experience which will culminate into the realisation of all your hearts’ desires for your big day.
