Wedding Guest Networking

This past weekend I was invited to a wedding, and in my lunch group we share a little bit about some activities that wedding guests should consider to make some networking with the bride and groom. I share some thoughts about it:

1.- The married couple usually take a lot of time and effort preparing the event, sometimes more than a year. Think that if you were invited to a wedding, it's because you are important for them, so make the effort and prepare yourself for the event.

2.- Plan ahead the type of clothing you will be wearing, think that the bride and groom want to be with you and have fun, so practical and comfortable, without loosing style, is the best.

3.- Be part of the event, if there is dancing, dance, if you have to give a message, share, if it's photograph time, look for a space and be there. The couple invited you because you are special to them and they want to have memories that you have a blast at their wedding.

4.- Confirm your assistance with some time space, make sure that on the wedding day you won't be "lazy", it's important that you don't leave empty spaces, the bride and groom take care about your confirmation and are counting on you.

5.- If you were invited to a religious ceremony and then to a party, the best thing to do is to make sure you go to both of them. It doesn't seem good that you only participate on the party, its important that the marrying couple be aware that you want to be with them too. 

6.- Don't forget to send a present, nowadays it's easy to make some account transfer, buy on line gifts, use the gift table at a department store. The couple, but specially the bride, will remember what was your gift.

Always remember that the most important thing is that you have fun and by this mean you will make that other people have fun too. Are you ready for your next event?
