KEEP YOUR GROOM CALM

“

This is the biggest day of the groom's life, he might be playing it cool but he will be nervous hoping that everything goes to plan! Stay by his side, get him a drink, make sure all the guests are okay and most importantly keep him calm!

”

TRAVEL

“

How are you and the groom planning on getting to the church on time? Was it your job or his to book the cars? Triple check all the travel arrangements to make sure the day runs smoothly and take something off the groom's mind.

”

HAVE A DRINK ON HAND

“

Have a drink on hand for the groom pre-wedding - although not too many before he says 'I Do' - only one to settle the nerves!

BE AT YOUR GROOMS SIDE

“

He might not say it but it would mean a lot if you stayed by the groom's side before he takes to the aisle - this is the biggest day of his life and he needs you for reassurance.

”

GIVE A SPEECH

“

You may be asked to give a speech - don't worry, just plan what you are going to say before the big day, have a laugh and speak of fond memories. Although, don't embarrass your friend too much... And DON'T FORGET your notes!

After the first dance, be one of the first to step on the dance floor and get the party started - make sure everyone is having a great time and enjoying the big day.
