Etiquette expert's advice for wedding guests - what not to do
ETIQUETTE expert Jo Hayes shares her ‘don’ts’ for wedding guests:
1. Don’t request a plus one
A wedding is a time of celebration with close friends and family, with a guest list carefully curated by the bride and groom.
For many couples, this task can often take a long time to perfect, picking and choosing important people that they want to share their special day with.
So it’s only courteous to respect this decision, and don’t pressure them to allow you to bring a plus one if they haven’t been invited, or if they’ve already said no.
2. Don’t steal the spotlight or make the day about yourself in any way
This means no wedding proposals, baby news announcements, don’t make speeches unless you’ve been asked to, don’t start discussing family dramas, and don’t turn up in an outfit fit for the club.
While there may be some couples who don’t mind this, it’s still important to be respectful about what big news to share at someone else’s big celebration.
3. Do not arrive at the ceremony or reception drunk
Jo says, “I remember one wedding I attended where half the guests (not including myself) got wasted and the bride and groom, too.
The end of the ceremony descended into a messy, loud, and unpleasant experience.”
Keeping away from consuming too much alcohol will help avoid a plethora of other unpleasant things, and keep the wedding the light and joy-filled celebration that it’s set out to be.
On top of that, don’t start an argument. No one wants their wedding day ruined by ‘Uncle Ed and Cousin Tom’ getting into a barney over politics.
4. Don’t pressure or criticise the couple over their decisions
Some bridal parties can decide against inviting children to their wedding, to serve a buffet meal that may not be to everyone’s taste, or to have the DJ not accept music suggestions.
It’s important to remember that the day is about the soon-to-be-weds, rather than the guests attending the wedding.
The couple will have made choices based on what they want on their special day, so it’s good to respect their decisions.
