Weddingbee boards

I am trying to put a list together, to prevent anything being forgotten for my master and mistress.  Does anyone have their lists that you can show me?

NOthing?

What are the master and mistress? I've never heard of that.

Master and Mistress of ceremonies

Mistress of Ceremonies – Friend or Relative

The wedding mistress of ceremonies is a good friend or close relative of the bride and the house party is a small group (usually 2-4) of the bride's friends that she trusts to take care of small details and tasks the day of the wedding.

Both are still considered to be a part of the wedding party, but don’t have as many responsibilities or financial obligations when it comes to planning the wedding.

The wedding mistress of ceremonies or members of the wedding house party may be asked to help serve cake or champagne at the reception, be the guest book attendant, help direct guests for the "send off," make a plate of food or snacks for the bride and groom to take with them when they leave (the bride and groom often forget to eat at their own reception!), or pack up the top tier of the cake for their 1st wedding anniversary.

Wedding Master of Ceremonies?

If the bride has a wedding house party she can have one of the members act as the wedding mistress of ceremonies during the reception. (A master of ceremonies is also very acceptable if the bride or groom have someone they would like in this position.)

 What the Wedding of Ceremonies needs to know.

The bride should give wedding mistress of ceremonies a time line of events for the reception. It is her job to make sure that the DJ, band leader, and everyone else sticks to the schedule for such things as:

• Father-Daughter Dance
• Mother-Son Dance
• Bouquet Toss
• Garter Toss
• Dollar Dance

If the wedding party is arriving at the reception site at 7:30, then the wedding mistress of ceremonies or members of the house party should make sure that the DJ or bandleader is ready to announce them at that time.

She should also make sure that the wedding party is lined up in the correct order to be announced and welcomed to the reception site by the guests. If the bride wants to cut the cake at 9:30, the mistress of ceremonies should make sure that everything is ready to do so at that time.

Basically, the wedding mistress of ceremonies makes sure that everything runs smoothly and on time during the reception so that the bride can have a good time free of worries.

This is an honor!

Being asked to be in the wedding house party or act as the wedding mistress of ceremonies is a big honor, even though you aren’t playing as big of a role as the bridesmaids. The bride wants you to be involved in her wedding day.

When the bride asks you to be in her wedding house party, she is saying that she trusts you to take care of the important details, both large and small, on one of the most important days of her life.

Ok, I would guess it depends on where you live.  This is quite the common thing where i'm from, but my guess is a day of coordinator would have the same job duties.  If anyone could share what their lists are it would be super helpful.  Sorry for the confusion!
