Guest Lists.

Do you have guests coming in from all over the globe to be at your wedding? 

One couple I worked with in Beverly Hills had people come in from 12 different states and 5 different countries.  To demonstrate the couple's appreciation for the journey each guest had made to join them for their wedding, we took time during the ceremony to talk about the fact that this community of people had gathered from far and wide.  I then invited the guests to stand when they heard the name of their state or country spoken, and I read the list of places everyone had come from. This gave the guests a moment to feel honored and appreciated.  It also gave everyone a chance to see who was who before meeting each other for the first time after the ceremony.  In fact, this served as a great ice breaker for the party.  And an unexpected benefit was that it gave the wedding couple a chance to feel their own importance to all of these people who had come from so far away to be with them.

Where are your guests coming from?
