A 1,000-guest wedding works like a big event with a wedding inside it. The couple's day follows the usual flow, but guest arrival, seating and dinner take more planning.
What to plan for
- Plan about 12 hair and makeup clients with at least 4 artists starting early.
- About 10 double-sided buffet lines serve 1,000 guests in about an hour.
- Have ushers help guests find their tables. Find my seat lets guests look up their table on their phone.
- Book rentals, staging and AV for the day before, or double the crews. A room this size takes much longer to set.
