How long in advance should I notify you of a banquet?

1. One month in advance

When you want to get married, you must have colleagues, friends and classmates around you. Besides, you must tell them the good news of your marriage one month in advance. As long as you notify them one month in advance, you can ask them to arrange their future work so that they have time to attend your wedding. One month's notice can show respect for the other party.

2. One week in advance

It is never too late to notify your family and friends a week before the wedding, and it will not be easy to forget this time. However, we can understand that the invitations must be sent directly to the other party a week before the wedding.

Things to note when hosting a banquet

1. Prepare the estimated number of people attending the wedding banquet so as to set the table

Before the wedding banquet, the newlyweds will send out invitations, and then determine the number of tables for the wedding banquet based on the number of invitations sent out, but it is best to book two or three more tables to avoid the number of guests exceeding expectations.

2. Arrange seats for relatives and friends in advance

In a formal and grand occasion like a wedding, China has a more traditional custom, that is, the seats for the newlyweds' relatives and friends will be carefully arranged. For example, arranging people you know together will provide more topics to talk about and the atmosphere of the wedding banquet will be better.

3. Arrangements at the Registry

At the registration office, more relatives and friends should be arranged to bring the guests attending the wedding to the arranged seats in time.

4. All aspects should be arranged reasonably

On the wedding day, not all guests will show up on time. Some guests may be late for various reasons. Therefore, it is necessary to provide drinks to guests at different time periods in a timely manner. Every guest who comes to the wedding banquet brings blessings and is a VIP, so we must do everything well.

5. Pay attention to details

Before all guests arrive, they should check whether all aspects of the equipment are normal so that the wedding banquet can proceed smoothly.

6. Wedding Speech

At most wedding receptions, there will be different speech sections, so the couple should prepare a rough outline of what to say to avoid being embarrassed by not knowing what to say.
