Having everyone entertaining themselves at a Goan Wedding
Everybody
looks to have a good time, not only is not only a big day for you but a chance
for everyone to come and celebrate your happiness with you and have a great
time. Goans love their weddings and if a couple does their bit you can expect a fun frolic Goan wedding. Wedding Planner Suzy Allen from Infinity Events share a few ideas to get your guest in the mood and ready to go!
Rehearsals
make the perfect icebreaker
The
entire celebration brings together both the families and each others friends,
many that might have not known each other in the past may lead to a bit of
social awkwardness. What could be a solution is getting everyone together
before the big day and there is no other day than the rehearsals. Sitting with
your fiancé and discussing common interests of friends and families would help
you introduce like minded people and get the conservation started. On the day you are tying the knot you would have a crowd with much better comfort
level of your closed ones in a relaxed atmosphere and hopefully having a good
time
Not
keeping your guests waiting
Everyone’s
here for you and not having the ceremony beginon time as scheduled would mean
that your guest would be simply sitting and waiting. Of course there are
instances when the delay is unavoidable, but having a plan to keep everyone
occupied is necessary. You could even have the bar open or have some cocktails
served out with a few bar snacks going around and even some light-hearted music
to keep the atmosphere alive.
Ensuring
no ones left hungry
A few
nibbles even if you are serving a full course dinner at your wedding will have
everyone in the right mood and spirit. Guests will chat while they snack and
you are certain that everyone is relaxed and having a good time. Serving the
appetizers even before you make your grand entrance isn’t a bad idea, some
soups, vegetable skewers or cheese balls on your menu will do the trick.
When the
party wraps up
Having a
shuttle service to get home throughout the night is a brilliant way to ensure
that your guests are not worried driving too late or far as they can
relax and drink knowing that they will get home safely when the party winds up.
The venue
and its location
Convenience
at getting to the venue is essential in your guest list being on time or
even making it to the reception or ceremony venue. Long drives or away
locations require your guests to plan a lot in advance without any last
minute hick-ups. To ensure that venue isnt a long drive for your or your soon
to be spouse’s family select a venue that is not too long of a drive for both
sides. Of course this is dependent on your budgets and availability but picking
up the right place will have everyone comfortable.
The
seating arrangements
Many
spend days together planning the
seating arrangements and
rightly so. You do not want your guests seated with one another when they do
not know each other see their friends at some other table having a good time.
Take your time with it to ensure that guests are seated with people they like
or at least know.
Limiting
the time taken on toasts
Keeping
the toast up-to to the best man/maid of honor and only adding your parents to
it will keep it short and engaging rather than having too many people raising
the toast. Keeping it short will have everyone ‘s attention after which
they quickly get back to what they were doing.
Specialty
Performance
You could
mix things up here with adding a performance of your own. Many couples have
been including a dance style of their own and the laughs and claps indicate how
popular it has been. If you don’t feel you have the appetite for it, a
group of musicians do something special, have an old uncle crack a few jokes or
even have the DJ spin some memorable tunes.
You need
to be having a good time
Months go into organizing the a marriage celebration which is more than
often very stressful. Finally when the day arrives you need to just let loose,
overlook the minor mishaps or hick-ups and be in a good mood. Delegate all
possible tasks; ask a friend to let you know if the stress is taking over.
