Down The Isle & Bride Hand Off

The following are some very important wedding planning tips regarding walking down the isle and the hand off in a wedding.

- Remind your Maid of Honor to wrap some tissue around her bouquet. You never know when you might cry during the wedding. Emotions can run very high.

- To avoid fainting, never lock your knees when you are standing. Alternate your weight from one leg to another. Always keep one knee bent.

- Make sure you drink lots of water to keep yourself hydrated-especially on a hot day.

- Make sure that you remember to bring the wedding rings the day of the wedding. The Best Man should have the Bride’s ring. The Maid of Honor should have the groom’s ring. Don’t entrust the rings to Ring Bearers.
