A Welcomed Guest

A crucial thing that often gets overlooked at a wedding is your guests’ comfort.  An easy and fun way to help your guests know that you were thinking of them is to buy inexpensive flip flops (I know the weather right now would have you thinking more like Uggs) but at outdoor venues, being able to slip into a pair of bright flip flops is heaven for ladies sore feet.  Buy a variety of sizes, tie them together and place them where everyone will see them. You can even make a little sign that says “What a pair” (with bride and grooms’ names).

Another inexpensive way for you to ensure your guests’ comfort is to buy pashminas online. You can get them to match any color scheme and they can be handed out during dinner by wait staff.  Again, they do not need to be expensive, as any wrap can help ward off an evening chill.

Just two ways of making sure your guests are comfortable and ready to dance the night away.

  1. Amy gave us the suggestion to do the flipflops and pashminas at my daughter, Rachael's wedding. They were a complete hit with the guests. I think every girl went home with a pair of flipflops. They came in very handy for the ladies who wore high heels. The pashminas were nice as the evening wore on. Thanks, Amy!
