What is a SAVE THE DATE & Should I Send Them?
Advice from Prosperity Mansion & Farm an outdoor / garden wedding venue located in Frederick MD and bordering Carroll CO, MD
Save the date is a way to let someone know that they are being invited to a wedding or other type of important celebration. This asks them to check their calendar and Save the Date! Typically, this is done for weddings. This is one of the first steps that a couple will make when planning their special day. Consider it an honor that they want to have you there to join in on the day that is their celebration of love and commitment.
There is not a hard rule on when to send out the Save the Date invitation. But most times its certainly after a couple has booked the wedding venue. That way they have secured the date and can share the name of the wedding venue, date, location and time. Save the Date’s will either come in the form of an email or a more formal printed card. This information is semi limited which allows the couple to make changes or not rush to book vendors. The most important thing is to make sure that you are aware of the upcoming big day and allow you to lock down that date for their wedding. It is important to the guest to know where the event will be held. They can then decide if they need to take time off work. make hotel reservations, get a sitter, put money aside, etc. To reiterate, no information should be placed on the Save the Date that hasn’t been finalized.
Consider including the wedding venues website on the Save the Date. That way your guests and see what type of facility it is and may gather information in their FAO section that will be helpful.
Prosperity Mansion & Farm recommends asking for at least a tentative yes or no within several weeks of receiving the Save the Date. This is not the final RSVP but at least the couple has an idea of who may be able to attend. If you know for whatever reason, that you are unable to come, it appropriate to tell the couple immediately. Acquiring a good head count is vital to planning the reception. A wedding can cost a lot of money. When the couple has a good idea of the number of guests they can decide on a menu, type of goodies at the bar etc.
Regarding the cost of Save the Date invitations, you can have them professionally printed or make them yourself. Canva has a wonderful program with amazing templates to create your own invitations. If you are not comfortable, there are also online companies that will assist you. And if you are really on a tight budget a simple email with the information, we talked about serves the same purpose.
Remember that a Save the Date is not the same as the actual wedding invitation. This is just an opportunity to………….. Save the Date!

Does and Don’ts for Wedding Guests
Advice from Prosperity Mansion & Farm, an outdoor / garden wedding venue located in Frederick County MD
Save the date- Most couples send out a save the date notification far in advance so that you can mark your calendar. This advance notice lets you notify your boss in advance for time off, get a sitter, get a hotel room and anything else that you would need to do to attend the wedding couple’s special day.
When you are lucky enough to receive an invitation take a minute and record the date. If you see that you have a prior commitment let them know right away. There are times that a couple has an A list and B list. If you know that you cannot attend the that gives the couple an opportunity to invite someone in your place.
RSVP- Forgive me but to NOT RSVP and to not RSVP by the due date, is just rude! This couple has been planning one of the most important days of their lives and invited you to share in the celebration. They have chosen a wedding venue that will allow their desired number of guests, given a deposit to a caterer, and catering is far from cheap, hired the appropriate number of servers and bartenders based upon the head count, bought center pieces for the correct number of tables, table cloths, dishes, ordered enough so that you may drink all evening, favors and the list goes on. All they ask of you is to RSVP no later than the deadline but sooner if you know you cannot attend. All caterers have a deadline where the guestlist can be adjusted and not be charged. An RSVP deadline allows couples to be able to make cancellations and save on their budget. They can notify the wedding venue of how many chairs to set up for the ceremony and tables and chairs for the reception. Pictures look quite sad when there are a lot of empty chairs at the ceremony and tables and chairs at the reception.
Respect their budget- The wedding that you will attend has likely cost the wedding couple a lot of money not to mention time. They will have sacrificed to make this the best day that they could based upon their budget. It would be fitting to tell the couple what a wonderful wedding it was and how much you truly enjoyed their day. Do not make snide comments even if you consider it in jest. Nothing negative should ever enter into the conversation.
Give a gift- Yes, you do need to make sure that you send a gift IN ADVANCE or bring a cash gift the day of the wedding. Never show up empty handed and think that you will send a gift later when you get around to it. Think how terrible it will be when the couple is sitting down and going through all of the gifts and cards and there is absolutely nothing from you. Wow, what a letdown.
Most couples register for gift’s so that they can get what they want or need. So, its super easy to go online or to the store and get exactly what they would be delighted to receive. You can never go wrong with cash! Never regift. Find some other way to get rid of those awful gifts that you were stuck with. Cash, cash, cash……They might be strapped right after the wedding and cash would be a breath of relief. For my wedding the cash gifts were a welcomed asset on our honeymoon.
Do not come if you are ill- The last thing the couple needs, is to get sick immediately following their big day. Also consider the other guests. Afterall, who wants to be sitting at the same table with someone that is ill. It is certainly respectful to send a note, asap telling the couple that you are so sorry but due to an illness you cannot attend. However, you are sending their gift with someone else, dropping if off when you have recovered, or mailing it right way. Other sentiments such as have a happy life etc. are nice to hear.
Do NOT bring guests that were not invited- The wedding invitation will say John Smith plus 1 or Mr. & Mrs. John Smith etc. If it doesn’t mention your children know that means only the people on the invitation. Retrain from calling the couple or their family members to complain about the kids or a plus one, not being welcomed to the wedding. It’s not your day, it’s the couple’s choice and their day. If that make you unhappy decline to come, no explanations are needed.
Show up in a timely fashion- As the owner of a wedding venue, there are always some stragglers that roll or fly in after the wedding ceremony has started. Especially when it’s an outdoor wedding venue that can be very disruptive. All eyes should be on the couple, not looking to see who is showing up late.
Do not try and sit down when the ceremony has already started- Stay in your car or way out of the way. Simply wait till the ceremony has ended.
Be respectful when dressing for a couples “Big Day”- Never try and outshine the wedding couple. It’s their day to be the center of attention. Allow them to shine. So, no super low-cut cloths or very short, nothing to hide slits. Never wear white!
Be respectful to everyone including the vendors- Bad behavior is terrible but even more on someone’s wedding day. This is a once in a lifetime event. Put your feeling aside for a few hours.
No fighting- It goes without saying that there is never any reason why any sort of physical altercation is warranted. If you cannot control yourself, simply go home. Verbal altercations can and are just as bad, hold your tongue
Do not get drunk- This is not a frat party. How fun is it to see drunk guests, staggering around.
Make sure that all of the other guests have eaten before you go for seconds- They call it seconds because you have already been served once. Most times there is plenty of food if you are still hungry, to get a second helping.

3) Courthouse weddings / Elopements/ Intimate weddings- From 2-30 guests and 1-2 hours.
4) Vow Renewals From 2-200 guest and from 1-12 hours.
Leave when the allotted time is over – A couple rents a wedding venue for a specific number of hours. There is a start time and end time in all contracts. There is also a clause that addresses overtime. - Yep, wedding venues charge by the hour. So, there is a fee if the place had not been vacated at the give time of the end of the rental. That fee can range from $300 to $1,000 per hour, so continue the party elsewhere.

Are you a LGBTQ - GAY Couple Looking to get Married in Maryland?
We recently received a message from a member of the LGBTQ, Gay community who was seeking a wedding venue in Maryland to celebrate their wedding day. They shared their disappointment in discovering that many venues did not “openly” welcome same s*x weddings, and in fact, did not have any information or signage indicating their support for the LGBTQ, Gay community. When they inquired with the wedding venue as to if they allowed same s*x marriages, some venues admitted to not wanting to lose business from individuals who were prejudiced against same s*x marriages. Therefore, they did not post anything on their website to welcome same s*x couples and events. How sad is this we ask.

Another important consideration is the venue's location and accessibility. Make sure that the venue is located in a safe and supportive community, and that it is easily accessible for you and your guests.
