Making your wedding guest list

Making Your Wedding Guest List

First thought should be whether you want a big wedding with the whole town invited or you would prefer an intimate affair with just a few close friends and family.

Regardless of your situation, it is important to decide on wedding size early on.
You can never make a preliminary wedding guest list too early.
Thinking about who you will invite and who will actually attend your wedding has a tremendous impact on your planning.

You have to take into consideration the venue where the wedding will be taking place when trying to determine size. This way you will be able to book a location where your entire party will comfortably fit. In some cases you may be in love with a certain location and have to cut down your list.

The vague number in your head may be very different to the reality, and seeing names on paper helps you to be sensible about who to invite to your wedding and who to downgrade to list B!

The difference between 100 and 130 guests may be quite considerable, when you consider three more tables, floral centrepieces, 30 more meals and wedding favors.

Only you can decide whether those people make the day more special or simply blow your budget.

When compiling your guest list, consider:

•Your complete guest list can be a combination of four lists: the bride's, the groom's, and both sets of parents.

•Give your parents some parameters, so that they know in advance they can't invite every second cousin, business acquaintance and family friend they haven't seen in twenty years.

•The final recipe for your guest list should comprise both realism (think budget) and hospitality.
•Never make the mistake of sending invitations to people you don't want there.
You may find they are the very first people to accept!
•Prioritise your guest list according to their importance to you.
•Be consistent! If you say you won't be inviting children, don't make exceptions.
•You can expect 10 to 20 per cent of those you invite not to attend.

Other considerations include:

•Partners - if you have single friends to invite, will you invite a ‘plus one' or simply leave them as individuals? Remember, consistency is the key!

•Spend some time talking with your fiancé and family about how you will all deal with people who are not invited to the wedding. If you have a consistent reason that everyone can articulate well, it means the possibility of hurting people's feelings is reduced.

Preparing the guest list can be a really hard task but once that will be settled, everything will be clearer.

Good luck !!

How to beat the summer heat ?

Summer is the most popular season for weddings. Clear skies and warm weather are the perfect setting for outdoor ceremonies.


If you are getting married under the hot summer sun, be sure to give your guests the perfect accessories to enjoy to the full the best day of your life !



You can provide them with some cute and useful accessories.

Take fans for example: nowadays they come in such a wide variety of styles. Help your guests beat the heat with these wedding fan programs.

Or what about parasols ? Not only do they offer shade from the sun, but they also look great on photos ! Paper parasols are simple and will go with any theme.

You can display them next to the entrance of your venue and put a little sign like" help yourself to a little shade".

Another thoughtful idea to refresh your guests is a personalised bottle of water that you can offer at the end of your wedding mass or at the beginning of your reception. This idea is perfect to add your personal touch by displaying the colour theme of your wedding.
