You don’t stick to the couple’s no-kids policy
Your kid might be the cutest and nicest in the world but if the wedding invitation said “Adults Only”, your kid stays at home. Period. Their presence might not affect you, but in some cases, children can mess up an elegant and mature event that the bride and groom struggled to organize, says Harutyunyan. Besides, you might put the newlyweds on the spot for allowing you to bring your child while other guests were told not to, even if that wasn’t really the case.
You told an inappropriate toast
A wedding toast should consist of a few nice words, wishes or blessings for the newlywed couple. Short and simple. Unfortunately, there’s always someone who forgets the general rule of toasts and starts talking about exes, funny dating stories, dysfunctional families or vent about some irrelevant drama. Don’t be that person! A wedding is not the time to talk about things unrelated to the couple.
You don’t sit at your assigned table
Seating arrangements are never easy. The bride and groom have to make sure their guests will enjoy the company at the table and have a good time in general. Putting the bride’s uncle next to his ex-wife or the best man at a table with his childhood nemesis will only make things worse, so who sits where is extremely important for the smooth running of the party.
If you change your assigned seat and move to another table, you’ll ruin the entire arrangement and even influence others to switch places as well. Imagine the chaos!
