It's the little things that are so important!! One of the most obvious ones that I always suggest to couples is to check the suits for the men!! As a friend or family member I have helped with last minute alterations on several occasions - thank goodness we ensured that there was a try on the night before!! As a Celebrant I have also had to help out sometimes - like the groom who made a comment 20 mins before the ceremony - "It's a pain that these pants are so long - they look all wrong and they will be a nuisance in the photos!!" Lucky I have a wee kit with me and I can operate a needle and thread in a hurry. So, please, please, please make sure the men try on their 'outfits' at least the night before!!! And while you are checking, make sure the shirts have been taken out of their packets, checked for size, ironed to get out all the creases and then hang them up ready for big day!!
