There are so many wrong things wedding guests do at wedding receptions. Let’s find out what are the things guests do so that you can avoid doing those things.
Don’t ever wear white.
There are so many styles to
follow as a groom. So he might not wear a white
color dress. But it doesn’t
matter don’t wear a white dress ever unless it’s your wedding.
Crashing to the bride’s
dressing room
This is one of the most common
mistakes people do at a wedding reception. Specially bride’s friends. They
crash in to bride’s dressing room just to wish her. Wishing your friend is
good. But the time isn’t. Dressing is the most rush time in the day. So don’t interrupt
the bride every time .You will get your change at the wedding ceremony.
Selfies and Smart Phones.
It’s so annoying when people
start taking pictures during the ceremony. Also it’s so rude posting pictures
of the couple without asking them first. If you can’t keep your phone away at
least for a little time. At least put it on silent mode till the ceremony is
over.
Don’t change the seat.
Don’t ask the couple to change
the seat order or try to change the seat at the reception time. It’s too much
to ask when they are trying to enjoy their special day. Please just have the
seat they have prepared for you.
Keep your mouth shut
Don’t talk during the speeches.
Not paying attention to the speeches is one of the most annoying things people
do in the wedding receptions. Please keep your comments and whisperings to
yourself.
Drinking too much
This is the most common mistake
Sri Lankans do. Don’t ever drink too much at a wedding reception. I know it’s
free. But the couple doesn’t want to deal with drunk people on their special
day.
Taking decorations home
This is also a common things that
girls do on a wedding reception. They take wedding hall decorations home with
them. But sometimes those decorations belongs to the company who did the hall
decorations. Because of this type of guests, the couple has to pay extra for
the damage.
Hang around too late.
Even if there is an after party. You
need to leave a bit early. Don’t be the last one to leave to reception. At some
point, the bride and groom want to be alone.
After all it’s their day not
yours. So don’t just ruin it for them. Just be nice, wish them good luck,
celebrate with them and leave. That’s all they expect from a wedding guest.
