Ask your <a title=\"Bridesmaids Dresses\" href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingdates.ie\/blog\/wedding-mood-board-bridesmaids-dresses\/\">bridesmaids<\/a> or mum to take it to the cleaners \u2013 often the sooner the better!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Flowers<\/strong><br \/>\nThe day after the wedding there may be lots of flowers to be distributed or given to good homes! Some couples like to put a bouquet on a deceased loved one\u2019s grave. Or is there somebody special that really helped you out coming up to the wedding? Is there a local hospital that would really appreciate the flowers? Or neighbours or family that couldn\u2019t make it to the wedding?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cake<\/strong><br \/>\nIf there is any cake left over you will have to decide where it goes. The freezer? Your relations? Your parents? There will be no shortage of volunteers!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Honeymoon Preparation<\/strong><br \/>\nYou may have last minute packing to do. Gather your tickets, passports, and currency.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Settle Your Bills<\/strong><br \/>\nSettle your bill with the venue and pay any other outstanding invoices. You don\u2019t want to be faced with bills when you come back from honeymoon and <a title=\"Wedding Supplier, Make-up artist\" href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingdates.ie\/blog\/wedding-make-up-makeup-by-andrea-murphy\/\">wedding suppliers<\/a> will want to be paid as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Presents and Cards<\/strong><br \/>\nGather the presents and cards you received and put them in a safe place while you are on honeymoon. Check your <a title=\"Wedding Venue Search\" href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingdates.ie\/venues\/\">reception venue<\/a> to see if any cards or messages were handed in at reception for you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Post-wedding party<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you are having a \u201cday after\u201d party it may be no harm to remind people about the time and place again. This is something that your bridesmaids could do for you.<\/p>\n<p>{Image of couple via <a title=\"Microsoft Office Images\" href=\"http:\/\/office.microsoft.com\/en-us\/images\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Microsoft Office<\/a>}<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Congratulations!
