Aha!
So
you’re going to be married? Congratulations!
This
is a joyful time, an occasion you’ve been dreaming about your entire life. And
right now you are with Mr. Right and the whole event is, at last, all coming
together.
You
may desire a gorgeous wedding venue.
A
great reception.
Wonderful
weather.
However,
what about some items you may not want?
We
questioned prominent Adelaide Wedding Celebrant Christopher Steele for some
suggestions.
Chris
had been more than forthcoming – he volunteered a couple of good guidelines of
things to stay away from. Here’s what he suggested:
Don’t
hesitate to cut your wedding guest list down to size. When you invite too many
guests, the reception will cost a lot of money. So cut off neighborhood friends,
other ring-ins and third cousins your mum might insist on. After all, it is
your wedding, not Mum's.
Secondly,
do not try to include a lot of glitz and glamour. While some accessories add a
great touch of atmosphere to your wedding event, too many will produce a messy
effect. And of course, your wedding guests are interested to see both of you,
not the decorations.
One
more concern is chairs. Chris described that most weddings nowadays only last
for around thirty minutes. So even though some unwell or older guests may need
a chair, the majority will happily manage with no chairs, so they're usually
unnecessary.
Take a while to determine just precisely how many chairs you really
need.
In
the end, perhaps reconsider the participation of pets or very young kids.
Some
marrying couples believe it might be wonderful, or cute, to have their 2 year
old child bring the rings down the aisle. Well it could work…but not every
time. Often, the 2 year old will unexpectedly need to cling to his/her mother
for the entire remainder of the wedding, which might not result in the kind of photographs
you had hoped for.
When it comes to animals, well, as the great film director
once stated, never work with pets or children! The image possibilities and the
fun and cuteness may all seem good in theory, but in practise, sometimes it can
go wrong. Chris strongly recommends a reconsideration of including animals in
your wedding.
In
conclusion, it should be mentioned that after all, it is your marriage. So if
you would like to overlook any of these guidelines, it’s ok. It will not wreck
your ceremony!
However,please at least give the matters some thought.
If
you are looking for an unforgettable wedding ceremony, consider booking
Christopher Steele. He is very popular because he makes every wedding a very relaxing
and happy event, for both of you and your guests. We recommend you get in
contact with Chris as soon as possible as he can become booked out a long way
in advance.
