Weddings are without a doubt the most celebrated occasion of a person’s life. Sometimes I really do wonder there is a possibility that a wedding may be a wee bit overrated. With over expensive wedding dinner dishes and extremely unnecessary alcohol which only makes everyone become tipsy and eventually puked all over the floor, weddings may not be a pretty sight after all.
However, these kinds of scenarios happen quite rarely. Some people may spend their life attending wedding dinners and leave the ceremony without much hassle or dissatisfaction. Some of them may even complement the bride and groom on a job well done. How is it possible for a fraction of guests to complain here and there even though the cost on the wedding dinner itself may amount to thousands of dollars?

How is it still possible for the other guests to wallop with joy and continuously shaking the hands of the organizers so eagerly till a security personnel have to kindly request the individual to let of the hand? To plan a wedding is hard. To invite guests to your wedding is even harder. To have them nod their heads in satisfaction of your success of the wedding dinner…well, let’s just say it is not impossible. It is just near impossible.
The secret of having a great wedding dinner has been kept for all ages. Now, in this article, I will share with you this secret on making your wedding a blast.
The underlying foundation of a superb wedding dinner is the food. People do not come here to hear your wedding speeches and to watch both you feed each other. Maybe some do. However, if you tie them to a chair, splash some cold water on their face, and ask them to tell you the main reason of going to your wedding, one would smile sheepishly and said in a voice so soft that a mouse would not even hear.
“I came because of…the food.”
Trust me on this, if you have bad quality food, everyone will remember your wedding in a distasteful way. Even though you may have sky dancers or you manage to invite to Rihanna to do her thing on stage, the awful food will leave an impact on their memory. 20 years down the road, people will discuss, “Did you know Rihanna ever came to so-and-so wedding?” And they would answer, “The one with the bad food?” Therefore, your food must be the most important thing that you have to focus on. Throw in lobster, sushi, shark fin soup and Kobe beef. Top it up with quality wine and cocktails. Finish everything with Haagen Daaz ice cream or mouth watering puddings and people will definitely remember your wedding for a long time, in the best possible way.
The next secret that I am about to expose may create controversial among some. However, wedding planners all around the world have kept on emphasizing this point but it had been disregarded as a lot may find it to be unnecessary and time consuming. So, in a summation of all the wedding planners, their voice can now be heard.
Give your guests a good wedding favor.
I know planning a wedding requires a lot of time. You may ask where is the time of finding the perfect favours for your guests is. However, wedding favours are symbols of appreciation and thoughtfulness for their attendance. It is a gesture of politeness and consideration. It is a way of saying thank you when you do not have the words to express your gratitude for them.
A wedding favor does not need to be fancy. Practical favors will do just fine. A piece of fruit cake or a simple napkin with your name embedded on it can be as easy as 123. These kinds of practical gifts can be found almost anywhere. It is not only easy to make, but it saves a lot of costs too. All you need is just a bit of creativity.
You can never go wrong with giving out bars of chocolates, unless most of your guests are diabetic. Scribble a message to make it personal. Photo frames can be very useful to the guests. Simply slide in your wedding photo inside. If they do not like the photo, the frame itself can be used for other purposes.
If time is on your side, a handmade bookmark can be as practical as any other thing. A personalized bookmark with your personal touch and flair makes a simple piece of cardboard into something really beautiful and meaningful to the receiver. Apart from this, notepads, fruits and scrapbooks can be transformed to gorgeous practical wedding favors too.
The secret has been shared. Use it well. And you will have the best wedding ever. With or without Rihanna playing with her umbrella in front.
