How To Have A More Introvert Friendly Wedding
Weddings can be fun and great celebration. But for some of us it can be overwhelming. Even as the one getting married. But there are some small things you can do and plan to make it easier and less anxiety ridden for yourself and others.
Don’t crowd everyone into one small room
I’m not saying you need to spend more money to get a big ballroom. More that you have a venue that has some outdoor space or even allows people to be in the hallway. I have to weddings that there was no space for people to go outside just to get fresh air or they would hound people who were in the hallway. Practically making people run when going to the bathroom.
Don’t make everyone participate in everything
I understand that you want people to enjoy themselves. Some may be shy to gt started. But some really do not want to get up and do whatever you have planned. Do one or two things to get people in the mood and enough will get moving. I really do not want to have to dance with a stranger just because you want everyone on the dance floor.
Let people get away from the music
Sound can be an irritant to some people. Or it can get overwhelming. No one is telling you to turn it down. We really don’t care about ruining your fun. But give us ways to get away. Some of us really don’t want to lose our hearing for the rest of the day.
For yourself, have moments just for you and/or your spouse
Have moments to just have quiet. A separate room just before the ceremony. Even for non-introverts it helps you pass yourself better. Weddings are an all day thing for those in it. Make sure the DJ tells people to just eat and leave you alone so you can actually eat a meal and not have to talk to everyone and take pictures with every single one.
