www.dotcomhunter.com Post Wedding Activities For many couples, the wedding is not over once the reception is. Depen ding on the location of the wedding and the couple's relationship with their families, often there are other activities that follow the main event. One of the most obvious is a breakfast the day following the wedding . This is a time for everyone to touch base with each other, check i n on how everyone did and perhaps share memories of the night before . This breakfast activity can be as simple or elaborate as you like. Some people like to have this breakfast at a relative's house becau se that is friendly and familiar and more conducive to everyone hang ing out and enjoying themselves. It can be potluck style or catered. You can also meet up at a restaurant. Many families like to have the bride and groom open presents the day after the wedding. There are many who believe the bride and groom are required to open presents in the presence of family for good luck. I n that case, building in the opening of presents is essential. This c an be a simple gathering of friends and family or you can turn the pr esent opening into an all-out activity, where each item is opened, de monstrated or displayed and discussed in great detail. Opening gifts doesn't have to a dry activity. You can add some silly fun. How about starting with the smallest and moving to the largest g ifts? Or working in the reverse order? You might even create a game. Everyone has to guess what's in each gift prior to its being opened. (Of course, people can't guess on their on gifts.) Someone can be in charge of keeping a tally and whoever gets the most right, wins a sma ll prize. The women in the bride's family might want to help her pack up her g own (or send it to the dry cleaners) and preserve her wedding bouque t. This can easily be done at home and the women (particularly those who are crafty) might want to get started on preserving the flowers as well. In the crafty light, some brides might want to plan a scrapbook part y for after the wedding. You won't have photos back from the photogr apher, but you can scrapbook many other wedding events, such as preeveent like manicures, various parties and the candid photos take by wedding guests the night before. More than being focused on the pho tos, this activity gives the women a chance to reflect on the events of the wedding, laugh at all the fun ties and journal and preserve memories before some are lost. It will also help the bride feel as i f she's partly in control of all those photos before she leaves on h er honeymoon and takes yet more photos. A gift from www.dotcomhunter.comwww.dotcomhunter.com If gifts were opened on this "day after the wedding", crafty groups might want to make thank you cards. Choose a design long before th e wedding, perhaps even making a prototype as well. Then have all t he supplies on hand and give everyone good ideas about how the card s should be made. Even the men can get on this act, helping to fold the cards, perhaps handling any computer work and even getting the ir fingers on glue and scissors. Send the bride and groom off with these homemade cards so when they get back from their honeymoon, al l they have to do is jot off a quick note. Some brides and grooms plan activities the day fter the wedding that are designed to help everyone calm down, relax and unwind after wha t has likely been a busy weekend. In this light, you can plan a picn ic at the park and bring along games to play. You might pack a footb all, a volleyball net or items to play baseball. You might bring alo ng water guns or a dartboard. Whatever it is, the idea here is to ha ve some fun and blow off steam. Make your own rules when playing the games. It really doesn't matter. Today is about relaxing, unwinding and spending some quality time with friends and family before the s pecial weekend is over. PPPPP Word count 684 A gift from www.dotcomhunter.com

Great ideas
Rated 10 out of 10

April 23, 2008 (4 months 15 days ago)This document titled “post-wedding activities” is a great tool to read as it offers advise to couples as to what to do after the wedding. I will use this template to use it for my own wedding as most preparations are done for the wedding and not what to do after the occasion. Thank you so much for this!
