Marriage ceremonies have always been characterized with merry-making and a blissful atmosphere mostly centred on happiness.
However, focusing on the Big day alone can cost you a lot. While planning the Wedding, you also need to pay equal attention to the post wedding, when all is said and done.
I'm not talking about marriage life I mean immediately the ceremony ends.
Here are 3 crucial post wedding arrangements that can save you
Dinner for the couple
A family relative should prepare dinner before the couple get to their residence after the wedding. More often than not most couple do not eat on their wedding day and get famished and exhausted after the ceremony is over. Obviously we don't want to see the freshest couple in town buying food by the road side. Do we?
Accommodation
The couple should have arranged for a place to sleep after the ceremony so that they are not found wanting. If they have their own place too, they should handle their door keys well so they don't get back extremely exhausted and stranded.
Money Matters
While budgeting for the wedding, don't forget to get enough food stuffs and put aside some money to take care of the home after the wedding. It would be embarrassing to start borrowing money immediately after your wedding.
And please lower your expectation on gifts or monies from well-wishers during wedding ceremony, they can disappoint!
