Once you are familiar with the basic idea of what a receiving line is all about, you will be able to handle it better. You can form the receiving line either in the vestibule right after the ceremony or at the entrance to the reception area. Once everybody in the line is in position, then you start receiving. Keep the greetings precise but sincere. If you find tome, it is always better to review the guest list before hand. You must introduce your relatives and friends to your spouse and vice versa. If the line is exceptionally long, then you can include some pleasant music to make the wait lively. You can also ask the waiter to serve hors d’oeuvres and champagne. Try and be as friendly as you can. If by chance you forget the name of any person or are having some problem pronouncing the name, it is better to stick to general comments not involving the name. You will not want to get embarrassed on your wedding day for sure.

Facilities at your wedding

If you have high profile guests attending your wedding, then you might want to depute security guards at your wedding. These guards screen the guest as per the pre prescribed guest list. They make sure that there are no gate crashers. Hiring security guards is the best way to keep a control on your guest list. It really looks bad if you have to patrol up and down to screen guests, in your wedding attire. It is better to approach the company before hand so that you can be relaxed on that aspect at least. If you have many guests arriving, you might also want to have a valet parking option available. This will ensure that your guests do not park miles away from the venue and then walk. They can simply get down at the venue and hand over the keys to the valet. The rest will be taken care of the valet. They will park the car and then get them back when the wedding is over. Another important facility available at your wedding should be a good cleaning service. It must include everything from vacuuming, window treatments, cleaning up spills, furniture polish and others. You can check the yellow pages for details on companies providing these services.

Looking good on your wedding day is not just something that you can achieve overnight. You have to start off at least a couple of months before the D Day. You need to invest in a good skin care program months before. You need to take proper care of your skin and health. If you are fresh from inside, then the glow will definitely emanate from within. You must take care of your diet and have a healthy lifestyle. A day before the wedding, it is necessary that you go for a spa, facial, massage, pedicure, manicure and maybe a little trim to keep your tresses in shape. On your special day have a good relaxing bath. You must eat at least a small meal on that day to ensure that you do not faint at the altar.
