After figuring out who you want at the wedding, the next step is the invitation. It is an opportunity to impress right off the gate.

You can also introduce some humor into the invitation. If you are into puzzles, you can ask the guest to solve a puzzle such as a jigsaw to reveal the location. If you can afford it, you can add boarding passes for a destination wedding.

This person can be a religious leader or a lifelong family friend. It is better is the individual can tell your love story. The more charming and entertaining the better. After the wedding, the next step is the reception. The serious part of the ceremony is over, it is time to let loose. A good band or a DJ is the way to get the guest off their seats and dancing.

4. Offer Delicious Food

Delicious food and tasty treats are a great way to impress guests. You might have the venue, guest list, and a gorgeous dress. However, if the guests are not well fed they will talk. By the time the festivities and the speeches come to an end, your guest will be hungry. Hungry people become irritable. It is therefore important that you take the tasting seriously. The final catering menu should have healthy options for those with dietary restrictions. You might also want to more just cake as the dessert.

An open bar at the reception is a great way to kick things off. However, if you want to give the guest something to talk about hosts an after-party. Weddings are very hectic; it is very hard to even get a few minutes with the newlyweds. An after-party provides a more relaxed environment for everyone to debrief. Your friends might all have traveled a long way to be with you. Shutting the festivities too early denies you a great opportunity. You can hold the party at the reception or move the party to a smaller venue. You even move the festivities to a club.
