Columbus Pro DJs has had the distinct privilege of providing wedding entertainment for hundreds of Columbus couples. These couples and their wedding planners offer one single piece of advice on how to be a good wedding guest: be punctual.
For starters, be punctual in RSVPing your attendance at the event. Give the couple a break. They need head counts by a specific date. Once the date is locked in, they’re set. Guests who show up unexpectedly because they didn’t RSVP throw a monkey wrench into seating arrangements and available meals.
Even more, couples juggle lots and lots of details as their date approaches. Don’t make them hit the phones and call tardy guests who have failed to respond. Your prompt RSVP takes some stress off their plate.
On the day of the event, arrive early for the ceremony. It takes a while to seat guests. Wedding planners encourage you to arrive 15 to 30 minutes early. Late arrivals are a major no-no. In fact, wedding planners suggest guests should not enter after the ceremony begins.
On the other hand, don’t arrive to the reception early. Servers may not be ready for you. Photographs may be in the process of being taken.
So how to be a good wedding guest is easy: be punctual. Wedding couples sincerely appreciate it.
By the same token, planning a great wedding reception is easy: it’s all about the fun. That’s where we come in.
