Who's helping you wrap things up?

Someone has to make sure your cards and gifts, decor, guest book, etc. all make it back to you after the wedding!! Do you have a specific person on gift duty or clean up crew? Is someone prepping your honeymoon suite or in charge of taking your dress or bouquet to be preserved? Who's helping you...

Who's helping you wrap things up once the party's over?

    My DOC (best friend) and MOB, MOG and step daughter and my two sons will be assisting in clean up. We won’t be doing it till Sunday.

    The venue, our parents, and some of our BP helped us.

    That totally didn't prevent me from utterly forgetting what I said, and my MOH had to remind me we deliberately left stuff at the venue for them to use/give away.

    But the venue not only packed things up, they took everything down on a cart so we could load it up into the car. They were super helpful.

    I hope our DOC will do most of this... But we haven't gone into planning the details

    We don't have to have the venue cleaned up that day so we'll most likely just ask our friends/wedding party to help us clean up. I haven't really thought about it yet.

    Hoping my DOC will do most of that but haven't spoke with them yet as we are still a little over a year out! If not it will either be my MOH or mom

    My wonderful family helped to do all of that. I'm not sure who all did what since we were gone, but we appreciated it!

    My mom and sister are going to stay at the venue after our wedding to make sure everything is squared away. Luckily, my venue cleans up all the linens, dinnerware, etc so they just have to grab the decorations.

    Our wedding planner and his assistant will be over seeing everything, but all of our vendors do their own set up/break down and clean up. Our planner will most likely pack up all the girls/cards and send them with us to our hotel (hopefully with some left over food! Haha)

    Probably just a mix between bridesmaids and family.

    No one, not even my FH and I, because there won’t be anything to clean.

    All families will help in the clean up of the venue. My MOH will be in charge of ensuring everything else is taken care of.

    I remembered to put my mom and sister in charge of collecting the gifts and decor, but forgot to have someone put pjs and a change of clothes in our room for the wedding night! Thankfully I had changed into a short white dress for the after party, but my husband had to put his tux back on the next morning. We joked that we were doing a "newlywed walk of shame"! 😂

    The venue is handling everything. We are also getting a DOC to do whatever else we might need help with.
