If you have a number of guests coming in from out of town, or if you're having a destination wedding, go a step beyond providing a welcome basket in their rooms by having a welcome cocktail party waiting for them. Provide a few bottles of wine, or a punch, and a simple cheese and fruit platter in a private room -- perhaps a bridal party members' hotel room that you've set up early -- and start your guests' weekend off with a chance to mingle, unwind, and get ready for a terrific event. This party is low-budget and thanks your guests for traveling to be there for your big day.

Make sure you have a mini stapler in your emergency bag. If your gown hem rips or falls apart, it will be far easier to have someone staple it back together neatly rather than stand there and wait for someone to sew it together. A big tear can mean a lengthy sewing job, which would take you away from your reception for a longer time. A few quick mini staples, and you're all set.

Concerned about guests' food allergies? They're on the rise, and some people are allergic to basic things. So put a note on your personal wedding Web site asking guests to write in with their food allergies -- and spread the word to other guests -- so that you can inform your caterer and cake baker. And be sure to have little cards set in front of buffet items or food stations, mentioning if an item contains nuts or other common allergy triggers.
