Things That Should Be Considered Before Inviting Wedding Attendants

There are some couples dreaming to have a huge wedding, why not anyway? They think that with lots of friends involved, their wedding day will be a blast! However, before sending invitations or calling your friends to be one of your many wedding attendants, think about the consequences of having so many wedding attendants in your wedding day.

• Too many wedding attendants will cost you more. Although bridesmaids and groomsmen will pay for their own wedding outfit and travel expenses, but in some ways the couple's expenses for each attendant do add up. Remember, each bridesmaid will need bouquet, wedding favor gift, wedding shower favor, bridesmaids gifts and groomsmen gifts. Aside from that, there may be also some other pre-wedding expenses where attendants are involved and you should pay for them. For example, paying for additional wedding shower ideas like renting another limousine because one isn't enough for a big number of people to accommodate.
  
  
• Apparently if you plan for a big celebration, from pre-wedding parties down to the wedding day itself, you will consistently a number of people that you don't know that much and aren't as close to you. So, you might not want to consider that as one of the most exciting parts of planning a wedding is daydreaming seeing your real close friends at your wedding day, having intimate conversation that can only happen to circle of friends who have known each other for a long time.
  
  
• Wedding attendants meant to help you, not to stress you. However, at some significant points, you will need to tell them how they can help, where to stand, how to dress and when to show up. So, with a big number of people needed to be instructed, this can be a bit stressful and frustrating.
  
  
• Expense to them. Remember, you are asking these people to invest time, money and effort to help make your big day happen. Even if they aren't that close to you, they may feel obligated to say yes. So, feel blessed and thank them with utmost sincerity.
  
  
• Consider the size of your ceremony. Make sure that the cathedral is large enough to accommodate a huge wedding party. If you commit to have a huge wedding party, make sure you already have an idea where to hold it.
