I. SAFETY FIRST

Provide guidelines and safety protocols for your guests and suppliers

From W.H.O:

• Maintain at least 1 metre distance from others, and wear a mask if you cannot guarantee this distance.
• Cover a sneeze or cough with a tissue or bent elbow, and immediately dispose of tissue in a closed-lid bin. Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth.
• Wash your hands frequently with soap and water, or with a hand sanitizer.

You can also provide personalized face masks for your guests.

II. FOCUS ON WHAT MATTERS MOST

Ma’an and Joseph’s intimate wedding with only 20 guests at Santuario de San Vicente de Paúl Parish and Shrine for the Poor

Rev. Fr. Bing Caintic, C.M. on the importance of the Holy Matrimony: “Kailangan ma distinguish natin iba yung sacrament and how you celebrate the sacrament. Mas mahalaga alam natin ano ba itong pinagdiriwang natin? Ang mas mahalaga ang ginagawa ang sakramentong pinagdiriwang.”

Rev. Fr. Bing Caintic, C.M. on the importance of the Holy Matrimony: “Akala kasi ng mga iba ang Sakramento ng Kasal ay yun yung gagastos ang nasa isip. Hindi iyon ang sakramento, ang sakramento ay ang pakiki isa ninyo sa buhay ni Kristo na Siyang gagabay tulong sainyo sa buhay may asawa.”

III. CHOOSE A RELIABLE ON THE DAY WEDDING COORDINATOR

Most couples prefer planning their wedding on their own but you will need someone to take over the coordination and execution of your plans on your wedding day.  Searching for the right wedding coordinator is very important because you need to hire someone who's reliable and experienced to handle tasks and unexpected challenges that can arise on the day. It also helps if the team have already handled a wedding during this pandemic, making sure that they have already managed the challenges of intimate weddings.
