Answer 2

O.K. It would take me an hour to give you all the etiquette of weddings, so my advice is to go to Border's or your local library and buy a book on Wedding Etiquette. This book will give you all the correct ways to set up a wedding. Also it will show you many ideas for large and small weddings. Flowers, table settings, color schemes, food service etc, you should buy Martha Stewart's book on Weddings. Or hire a wedding planner but that could run into much expense. Best of Luck to you

Tips: Be Prepared ahead of time!

*

Review rental contract, check for access times and when you have to be out?
Will you have enough time to decorate, before the event preferably the morning
of or if possible the day before. Do you have to be cleaned up the same day?

*

Are you allowed candles? Often open flame is not allowed and if it is, candles
must be contained inside a holder, floating candles on water are the safest.

*

What is the capacity of the hall? You can't expect to squeeze 150 people into a
hall designed for 120, there simply won't be enough chair space, or room to
maneuver, and you may be held liable if there is a legal problem.

*

Is insurance included in the rental agreement?

*

Check for the number of chairs and tables. You will need tables to
accommodate all the guests as well as tables for the head table, buffet, desserts,
DJ, wedding cake, guest book, and gifts. You can always rent a few extra.

*

Allow several (3) hours to set up the hall with a crew of helpers.

*

Decide on the decor well ahead of time, drawing diagrams to show where things
will go and making or purchasing appropriate items.
Take measurements, check for plugs, take extension cords.

*

Have all decorations, table items etc. all ready to just put in their place,
all cutting etc. pre done.

*

Find out when similar events will be held and drop in to take a quick look at
their decor, to get ideas.

*

Check on the bar area available, is there space for glasses, ice etc.

*

Check on the kitchen available. Choose the hall with the best kitchen if
possible. Will you need an extra table in the kitchen? Do you have to bring all
your own serving utensils, oven mitts, towels, aprons, etc.
Check INSIDE oven and fridge for racks and space.

*

Garbage cans, will you need to bring your own? Dress them up using a paper
table cloth and a big bow if they will be visible.

*

Misc. items, salt and peppers, etc. are they supplied or will you need to bring
your own fancy ones, or rent items not supplied?
*

BBQ lighter to light candles rather than a box of matches, have matches too.

*

Coat rack space?

*

Will the hall be already cleaned? It might not be and it's an awful
surprise to find dirty dusty floors.

*

Learn where your fire doors are the fire extinguishers and read the instructions.
Have several people aware of these.

*

Table placement, this is important. Decide where the head table will go, the
buffet table should be close to the kitchen access as dishes will have to be set
out and refilled. Tables should be set out so that people do not have their
backs to the head table and will be able to see the wedding party and speakers
easily. You also must allow for chair room between the tables. Hopefully you
will not have to move the tables for dancing, but it you do, try to have it well
planned out.

Answer 4

Go to your local library. They have wedding ettiquette books that will tell you any & everything you would possibly want to know about how to set up and orchestrate a wedding.

Answer 5

There are step by step instructions on many websites and in most wedding magazines...just do a search for weddings and etiquette. :-)
