8 Tips for a Wedding Rehearsal

Where and when to have the rehearsal

As we watch the pomp of a royal wedding, we can't help but be impressed at how smoothly everything goes. Of course, those of us interested in weddings, realize that a great wedding day doesn’t just happen. Preparing for a wedding at the Virginia Golf Club, Brisbane recently, we made sure that the wedding day would be perfect by having a wedding rehearsal at the Club itself.

Here are things to consider when you have your wedding rehearsal



1)  In indoor ceremony arrange a rehearsal a week before the wedding if convenient for everyone needing to be present


2)  In an  outdoor eremony, rehearse at the time of day and week as the wedding ceremony


3)   Indoors, make a floor plan of how the venue will actually look on the day of the ceremony


4)     Mark out areas which will be taken up with flower pedestals, wedding arch, potted plants, speaker’s stand, music stand and other large decorations


5)      Place a few chairs to check how close the guests should be seating and where the aisle should be


6)       Place chairs for young attendants who will only take part in the bridal march


7)      Add a special and a favourite toy to identify the seating for the child. Leave extra chairs for carers of the children


8)      Make your entrance and your exit being aware of how much space you’ll have once the venue is completely set up for your wedding day
