Your Wedding VIP's
Your wedding day is about you and your partner. But there are always other Very Important People who you would love to be involved in your wedding, but not everyone can be a best man, or bridesmaid. There are of course other ways to include these people in your wedding, and make them feel important to you as well. So, here are a list of important roles and functions which need to be filled, by just the right people. No, there are a few here which not everyone will use, but then again you just never know...
Wedding Roles
Your SecretaryThere is always so much which needs to be done. Appointments to be made, paperwork's to be filled in, finale dates and times and bookings and and and.....Whew, wouldn't it be easier if you had someone who could help you with all this, someone who could make your appointments, ensure that all the paperwork is done, invitations are sent out on time etc.
Site Stylists
If you are working on a tight budget for your wedding, then there is a good chance that you may be doing the site decorations yourself. Now with a few days to go before your wedding, you will have more important things which you need to do, and so, having someone to help you with the reception and venue decorations, and table settings is just the ticket.
Program Distributors & Ushers
Almost every venue will need someone to hand out the wedding programs, and help anyone who gets a little lost or confused. This gives someone a role which will leave them feeling like they have directly effected the success of your wedding, and still leave them free to have a good time. By the way, the usher role is not strictly for guys only.
Candle Lighters
There are some Christian ceremonies, where 9-12 year olds will be responsible to light the candles just before the mother of the bride is seated. A good job to keep the youngsters in the family out of trouble, and involved in the wedding.
Ring Bearer
This role is often set aside for an adorable young boy or girl in the family, usually anywhere from 4 years to 8 years of age. It is also a good idea to choose a child who is not too fidgety, if you have that choice.
Pages & Train Bearers
If your train is long, you may want to involve a few 6 - 9 year old girls or boys to help keep your train in top shape, and not under your feet.
Reader
This is a popular way to give someone a space in the spot light and to feel an important part of the wedding. Religious passages are quite common, but do remember that you may want to choose someone who shares the same beliefs as you to do the readings.
Soloist
This is another popular one. Most of us have some friends who have musical talent, and a good way to keep your guests entertained, and to give this VIP a share of the spot light, is to have them sing a song while you go off and sign the legal certificate.
Rice Princess or Prince
After the ceremony you are going to need to have someone hand out the rice or confetti to your guests as they leave the chapel, and it is another way to incorporate some close friends or relatives into your ceremony.
