Inspiration - #TayoAndDoyin2014
Sometimes last year, i was coordinating a wedding and noticed one or two things, especially after studying different brides wedding psychology (trust me, ladies have a totally different psyche when it comes to weddings). I realized that making a bride happy on her wedding day can be easy even when things are not going her way.
The big day is here, and it is the bride’s day to shine. There are so many things that could go wrong, but with the support of her friends, loved ones or a wedding coordinator/planner mishaps and emotional breakdowns can be avoided, and the day can end with a happy bride who will be forever thankful.
1. OFFER EMOTIONAL SUPPORT: Every wedding ceremony is different, as is every marriage. Sometimes brides can have this perfect picture in her head, and while we all hope for the best, life happens – even at your wedding ceremony. Try to be by her side and support her through the day. If things don’t seem to be going right, share a story of similar circumstances that you may have experienced.
2. MAKE SURE SHE IS THE STAR OF THE SHOW: Take extra care to go above and beyond her expectations. Remember, this is the day she has been dreaming about for most of her life! Is she a bride on a budget? Why not give her a gift of pampering? This especially holds true for bridesmaids. You are her emotional ‘body guards’ on this big day! She has been under immense pressure up to this point and really need all the support she can to go through the day.
3. WATCH YOUR WORDS: Everyone has their own opinions of how a wedding ceremony should go, how the bride and groom should look.You have to remember that the wedding day is not the day to criticize, or even add a friendly suggestion unless it is asked for. Your comment, no matter how helpful you intend for it to be, could end up being the straw that breaks the camel’s back.
4. KEEP THE PEACE. So maybe you don’t care for the choice she made for the maid of honor or whatever the case might be. Remember that there is a time and place for everything and this is not the time to throw unkind words to anyone at the ceremony.
