What To Do Between Your Ceremony & Reception

All those months, and in some cases years, of planning and you are now Mr. & Mrs.  At this moment everything seems to be moving so quickly.  Before the celebration begins you have a small window of time so decide on a plan.  Once you and your fiance come up with your plan make sure you discuss with your planner so she can help you execute it perfectly.  

In the meantime here are some options you may want to implement.  

Now, Let's Get Inspired!

1.  Take at least 15 minutes for yourselves.  You are about to embark on a fast paced celebration with a lot of people so start your marriage off with a few minutes of alone quality time to take everything in and say what you wanted to say when you saw each other for the first time that day.

2.  Make sure you eat.  Even if it's only appetizers put something in your stomach.  Many times couples get so wrapped up in the festivities they do not eat or they barely eat.  Ask your planner to have a plate waiting for your after the ceremony.

3.  Get your photos taken.  This is the perfect time to get your photos taken together, it allows for less time taken away from your guests and the fun.

4.  Touch up your makeup & hair.  No better time for touch ups than right after the ceremony.  Many photos are about to be taken and you may not be able to do it later.  Ask your makeup artist in advance if he/she can stay for touch ups.

5.  Speak with your parents & in-laws.  Everyone will be trying to get a kiss, hug, and wish congratulations.  This is an opportune time to let your parents & in-laws know how much you both appreciate everything they have done.
