Although there are plenty of things to organise for your wedding day, the most important thing to you is that everyone has a nice day. You dream of a wedding that runs smoothly, with no stress and no problems.
And one way to make this more likely is by handing a wedding order of service to each guest as the enter the venue. A wedding order of service is a great way to inform the guests exactly how the service and the day is going to run. Within the wedding order of service, you can include details of the ceremony, including any hymns that you have arranged and you can also add information about what will happen immediately after the ceremony.
This will help to put your mind at ease as you will know that everyone is aware of the order of proceedings. It will also help to put the guests’ minds at ease as they won’t be worrying about being in the wrong place at the wrong time. For example, if your wedding photographs are being taken immediately after the ceremony, the wedding order of service will ensure that guests won’t wander off elsewhere when they need to be in the pictures.
There are plenty of different designs of wedding order of service documents and it’s a lovely idea to match the design to the rest of your wedding stationery.
A wedding order of service is vital if you want your day to run as smoothly as possible. With the wedding order of service, you can inform your guests of how the ceremony will run.
It is up to you how detailed you have your wedding order of service. Some couples like to detail every aspect of the service in their wedding order of service while others prefer to simply list the main sections of the service.
But the wedding order to service is great for ensuring that guests are where they should be. On your wedding day, the last thing that you want is to be worried about where people are and organising them to be in the right place. So the wedding order of service will inform your guests that they should be outside the venue ready for the photographs, for example.
When you are choosing the design for your wedding order of service, you can very often choose one that matches the rest of your wedding stationery. Choose the same design for your wedding order of service as you did for your wedding invites and you will ensure that the whole day ties in well together.
When it comes to your wedding preparations, you may feel like you really can’t keep track of what’s going on. But to save you from that same feeling on the big day, you should ensure that you have a wedding order of service planned.
The point of the wedding order of service, is to let guests know exactly how the day will pan out. It will have details of the ceremony including times and information about any hymns, passages and speeches that are to be made. It will also include information about what happens immediately after the ceremony. So the guests will be aware of where they should be at what time and there won’t be any confusion.
The wedding order of service can also act as a life saver, when you become overwhelmed on your special day and completely lose track of what is happening. They are great to have as a guide and can really make the day go smoothly.
Your ushers should hand out the wedding order of service as guests enter the venue. To make the wedding order of service convenient to hand out and for guests to carry, you could consider the concertina style, which compacts all the information you need into a smaller space.
