5 Unique and Heartfelt Ways to Show Kindness and Hospitality to Your Bride Friends♡
2016.09.29 published
Inviting Graduated Brides and Friends to the Wedding＊
Do you have graduated brides or married friends as guests at your wedding? Surely, some of your friends must be married too◎
Whether they are married or not, they remain one of your important friends. However, there are considerate gestures you can make as a bride specifically for your "graduated friends"♡ Here are some lovely considerations for graduated guests♩
For Graduated Friends♡ Consideration You Can Show as a Bride ① Check Their Wedding Anniversary
Do you know your friend’s wedding anniversary? Try to recall the day of their wedding or the day they registered their marriage＊ Isn't their wedding anniversary close to your big day?
If it is near, I recommend writing "Happy [number of years/months] anniversary!" on a letter or dessert plate◎ It’s very touching when they remember your wedding anniversary…♡ Please make sure to check their anniversary＊
For Graduated Friends♡ Consideration You Can Show as a Bride ② Don’t Forget About Their Husband During the After-Party♡
Of course, you may invite married friends to the after-party too＊ Until they have children, they are likely to want to join as much as possible◎
However, when inviting them to the after-party, a small mention like "Is your husband okay? Please say hi to him for me" makes a big difference♡ Don't forget to prioritize their family＊
For Graduated Friends♡ Consideration You Can Show as a Bride ③ If They Attend Together with Their Husband
If you are good friends with both the husband and wife, they may attend the wedding together＊ In such cases, how about asking a couple to do a "role model bite"?
The role model bite is where a couple who has been married longer does the first bite in front of the newlyweds before their own first bite＊ Your friend couple will be surprised but will undoubtedly feel nostalgic about their own wedding♡
For Graduated Friends♡ Consideration You Can Show as a Bride ④ If They Are Pregnant
Sometimes your graduated bride friends may be pregnant too＊ In such cases, let’s prioritize your friend's comfort and needs♡
If they are coming to the wedding and need to walk a bit from the station, it’s considerate to provide a taxi ticket, cushions and blankets for the chairs, and if they are avoiding caffeine, offer non-caffeinated rooibos tea instead of coffee or tea, as these are important considerations◎
For Graduated Friends♡ Consideration You Can Show as a Bride ⑤ Listen to Their Wedding Stories or Borrow Items
Lastly, this may not be a direct consideration for your graduated bride friends, but it’s about listening to their wedding stories or borrowing items from them＊ Your graduated bride friends are pioneers in wedding experiences. You can ask them what they did well, what to be careful about, and so on＊ However, be cautious about discussing money or complaining about your own wedding, as this may spoil the moment!
As one of the "something borrowed" in the tradition of "something four," you can borrow wedding items from them＊ Sharing happiness from a couple with a strong relationship is really lovely, and your friend is unlikely to feel bad about it◎
I Want to Do Something Special for My Graduated Friends♡
There are plenty of things you can do for your graduated friends! Just as there are stories you can hear because they are graduated brides, there are also things you can do specifically because they are graduated brides♡
It is important to think about "What can I do for the guests who will be attending?" during the wedding planning◎ Let’s provide wonderful hospitality to the guests, aiming for a joyful wedding for both yourself and them♡
⇒ There are many more♡ Here are more ideas for "hospitality" at weddings＊
