Cupid’s Advice:
Planning a wedding is not something that you can accomplish in one Saturday afternoon; it takes a lot of time and effort. There are a lot of details that need to be looked at, and one of those is including your loved ones in the ceremony. Here is some relationship advice for how to include your family on your special day:
1. Have a small ceremony: A great way to include your loved ones is to have a small and intimate gathering. There will always be that one other person you want to be there, but instead of inviting your roommate from your freshman year of college or your co-worker from your first job, keep your guest list short so you can spend time with those you truly love.

2. Include your children: If you or your significant other have children from previous relationships and love, don’t forget them on this big day. The ceremony is as much about them as it is to you and your partner. It isn’t only two people coming together, but two families coming together.

3. Co-mingle as newlyweds: Encourage your relatives to pick a side, not a seat. It will be a great way for extended family to meet your partner’s loved ones. During the reception, make it a point for you and your significant other to go around and thank everyone for coming. It’ll show how much you care, and they will feel more included on your special day.
