Schedule and Maps
Submitted by: Cheryl Galvez

Provide a map and schedule for the out-of-town guests so that they know when and where the events are taking place.

Sites of the Town
Submitted by: Cheryl Galvez

Many of our wedding guests were arriving a bit early, so I constructed a newsletter that highlighted the must-see sites in Houston. It allowed them to sightsee on their own in case we were too busy getting things coordinated.

Your Local Chamber Of Commerce
Submitted by: Jennifer of Texas

I had guests coming to my wedding from many out-of-state places and wanted to tell them about the town the wedding would be held in. My local Chamber of Commerce mailed out packets about the town free of charge as long as I provided the mailing labels! Guests could learn about the town and make note of the activities they liked to do when they arrived.

Reception Maps on Back of Program
Submitted by: Lindy of Kane, Pennsylvania

To save paper and still ensure that our guests made it to the reception without getting lost, we printed the map to the reception on the back of the wedding programs. Everyone left with a customized map and arrived on time despite the complicated directions!

Itineraries for Guests
Submitted by: Stacy of Chicago, Illinois, USA

Wedding Itinerary - If your wedding activities will run over a course of a few days (i.e. bridal luncheon, bachelor party, rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception, gift-opening), type up an itinerary of dates, times, & places with phone numbers for all those invited to not just the ceremony and reception. This puts the responsibility on those to know where to be and when and leaves the happy couple knowing all have the correct information.

-----------------------------------------------------

Create a Web Site
Submitted by: Elona C. of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA

Create a web site to help disperse information about your wedding. Include a section on hotels, dining in the area, local attractions and, of course, driving directions to the ceremony and reception. For fun, you can also add information about yourselves, where you are going for the honeymoon, and who is in the wedding party. Just be careful and don't assume that all of your guests will access the information there. Be prepared to give directions and important information through other means.
