To include or not to include gift registries…

Pro’s:

Its nice to be able to tell your guests where you are registered so they don’t have to call you, call your parents, call your maid of honor.

Cons:

It is considered rude to include it in or on your invitation.  Instead your wedding website should be included in the invite and then your registries can be included on your website.  Which ultimately is easier, so guests can just click on link and go straight to your registry.  Many older guests still have problems figuring out how to use the internet, but chances are they won’t use the registry anyway.

Choosing a Location with the guests in mind

One of the things that event hostess forget and brides sometimes forget, is about your out of town guests.  Usually they have not been to the location before or they are coming specifically for your occasion.  Here’s what things you need to consider for your out of towners.

1.       Do they have kids? Will the kids be coming too?

2.       Find a location that is mostly for the age group coming for them to stay in.

3.       Locate several (10-15) activities that they can go to while they are in town.

a.       Some of these activities  you can incorporate into group activities, and some on your own

b.      If kids are coming be sure to include both children friendly and fun activities for them

too, the parents will be happy you did.

4.       Be sure to include a couple hotels and a couple different forms of transportation and how to reach them.

5.       Maps and a couple items created in the area that your event is taking place in is a really nice touch.  i.e. your event is in Colorado include a map of the area, sunblock, water and some local candies or chocolates.

6.       Above all make it fun!!!
