Now that wedding season is in full swing, many couples are
preparing for that week before their big day. If you have hired a
wedding coordinator, that week should be fairly easy because he or she
should be handling the final details of your wedding day. But there are
still some items that will need to be handled by you or by your Maid of
Honor or Best Man. I've listed a few of them below:
- Pick up wedding bands from jeweler and make sure they fit
- Give final count to caterer
- Have the final walk-through of the reception venue detailing the days events
- Groom and groomsmen should pick up tuxedos, shoes and accessories
- Pack for the honeymoon
- Pick up wedding gown and accessories and make sure someone is with you to learn how to bustle the train
- Have final meetings or make final calls confirming all arrangements with hired vendors + give them a detailed timeline of the wedding day events - a task that certainly will be handled if you hired a wedding coordinator
- Prepare and deliver welcome bags to hotels where out-of-town guests will be staying
- Attend wedding rehearsal and dinner, and give wedding party gifts at the dinner or on wedding day
- Write thank you notes for gifts received
Until next time...WEDologize!
