The question of behavior at a wedding is quite relevant, and when going to a celebration, not everyone knows how to behave correctly. This applies equally to newlyweds and guests of the holiday.
Rules of conduct for young people
A wedding is the first important event in the life of a young family. The general emotional climate of the event depends on their mood and behavior at the wedding ceremony and at its solemn part. If the young are gloomy or annoyed, then the guests at such a holiday will not be very comfortable. And on the contrary - smiles to those present, kisses and a tender attitude towards each other will set the audience in the right mood.

The official part of the wedding ceremony is usually preceded by the ransom of the bride. This is a rather crucial moment, which, in fact, is the beginning of the wedding celebration and often sets the tone for the general event. The main participant in the ransom is the groom. The role of the bride at this stage is minimal and consists in waiting for the betrothed in the apartment, surrounded by one or two close relatives. The groom, on the other hand, acts as the main character, so his behavior at this moment is very important.

The young man should be sympathetic to the proposed tests and, if possible, perform all the actions that a bridesmaid requires of him. You should not show your indignation or refuse tasks - this can cause an ambiguous reaction from others and devalue the main meaning of the ransom. In especially difficult situations, friends and a witness should come to the aid of the groom. Unlike the groom, they do not worry, they are absolutely relaxed and are able to joke tricky questions and difficult trials.However, too frivolous behavior of the groom is also not welcome - he should not hug and flirt with the bridesmaids, as well as make inappropriate jokes.

The next stage of the wedding is the official part of the event at the registry office. And if during the ceremony the newlyweds should be serious and solemn, then after it is over, you can exhale, relax and start accepting congratulations. The groom usually has time to consider everything during the ransom, so special attention is riveted to the bride in the registry office. In order for the young wife not to feel somewhat confused, the husband should support her and always be there.

At a gala evening in a restaurant, young people should be the first to come up to greet elderly relatives and guests who were not at the official ceremony. Sitting at the table and accepting congratulations from the older generation, the newlyweds should get up, and when congratulating from friends and young relatives, this is not necessary. When guests are making toasts, there is also no need to get up - you just need to nod to the speaker as a sign of attention. Also, young people need to be careful about alcohol, since after excitement and wedding chores, intoxication can come very quickly.
Young spouses can leave the evening at any time., informing the parents about this and saying goodbye to the elderly relatives. There is no need to say goodbye to all the guests separately. The fun, as a rule, is already in full swing, and the toastmaster is engaged in those present.

Guest etiquette
For those invited, there is also a set of rules of conduct at the wedding.
- First of all, the guest needs to respond to the invitation and immediately indicate to parents or young people whether he will be present. This approach will help the couple decide on the seating of guests and save them from unnecessary expenses. Ideally, the answer should be given at most the next day after receiving the invitation.
- Also, the guest must comply with the dress code. If a couple decided to spend a holiday in a certain style, then it is better to take care of the outfit in advance, so that later they do not feel like a "black sheep" among other guests.
- When making toasts, you do not need to get carried away too much and turn the event into a "theater of one actor". The toast should be short, kind and concise, not contain ambiguous connotations and not hurt anyone's feelings. The first toast is usually made by the most senior and honorable participant in the celebration, only then - by everyone.
- During a festive dinner, you need to communicate with all guests, even with strangers - this will not only allow you to get to know better people who are close to the newlyweds, but also make new friends. However, you shouldn't be too intrusive. You should not shout loudly, attract undue attention to yourself and be zealous in your desire to help the toastmaster and organizers.
- A separate topic is the telephone. Before entering the registry office, you must turn off the sound or turn off your mobile phone. This is due to the fact that the official part is a rather serious and exciting process, and the cheerful ringtone will simply lubricate the solemnity of the moment. Also, you should not shoot every moment of the celebration on the phone, because you were invited to share the joy of the event, and not to duplicate the work of the invited operator. Therefore, it is better to look at the young with your own eyes, and not through the screen.

But if the photos were taken, then before sharing them on social networks, it is necessary to obtain the consent of the young. During the photo shoot for the spouses, there is no need to express dissatisfaction with their long absence. It is better at this time to meet other guests, the groom's friend and the bride's witness.

- It is necessary to take an active part in dances and competitions.You need to understand that the wedding banquet is not limited to delicious food and drink and includes an entertainment program, and by participating in contests and performances, the guest shows respect not only to the organizers of the event, but also to the heroes of the occasion.
- During a banquet, you cannot lean your elbows on the table and reach for a far-away dish. In addition, there is no need to comment on the quality and quantity of the dishes served, and if some product is not to your taste, then it is better to put it aside and ask the waiter to replace the plate. Also, you should not abuse the shouts of "bitter" - the young are probably hungry, and you need to allow them to eat quietly.
- Children at the wedding should be under constant supervision and in no case interfere with the guests. Firstly, a wedding is an adult holiday, and secondly, people have come to rest and are not obliged to endure the inconvenience caused by the behavior of children.

What shouldn't be done?
Along with the rules of etiquette, there are a number of prohibitions that cannot be violated in any way while at the wedding.
- At a wedding event, one should not speak badly about the young people, their parents and the organization of the event.
- The groom does not need to hang out with unmarried girls and talk about the adventures of his bachelor life. This behavior is very offensive for the mother of the bride, and she may doubt the right choice of her daughter.
- You cannot bring an uninvited person with you. Even if a guest goes to the wedding for the first time and does not know anyone except the groom or the bride, you need to go alone and in the process of celebration find yourself a worthy companion and interlocutor.
- You cannot take one of the spouses aside for conversation, come without a gift and conflict with other guests.
Correct behavior and respect for everyone present will be the key to a successful wedding and a guarantor of a good mood.
