Unlike the first, the scenario of the second day of the wedding almost does not contain officialdom. He is democratic, free and there are a lot of options for holding. First, we need to decide who wants to see the newly-made husband and wife.
How to organize a second wedding day?
The first day is always crowded, usually there are even the most distant relatives, colleagues at work, etc. By the evening it will become clear who will not want to take part in the continuation of the holiday (most often these are elderly relatives), but who will be unpleasant in a cheerful company. The second day is the holiday of the newlyweds, when they do not have to comply with any requirements, and if they decide to spend it only together, it is their full right.
What to treat?
It depends on which program the young will choose. If the continuation will be in the same cafe or at home with the parents, there will be no special problems: after the first day there are salads and other ready meals, fruits and drinks. Only we must remember that on the second day pancakes and, possibly, a cake are required (especially if it was not at the ceremonial event).
If a place of a holiday becomes a summer residence or an exit on the nature, shashlik is irreplaceable. His presence in the festive menu will be satisfied with everything. And you can cook an ear at the stake, accompanied by the process of its preparation by competitions and other entertainments.
If on the second day the company is not numerous, order pizza or rolls. Then no additional effort is required.
Honeymoon Clothes
The rich and uncomfortable wedding dress of the young wife on the second day is not useful, nor will the strict suit of the young husband be needed. The outfit needs to be selected based on where and how the second day of the wedding will be held. It's silly to go up in the mountains, having shod shoes, or to wear a tie for a trip to nature. The main thing: the newlyweds should be recognizable in the crowd of guests. This can be achieved by selecting clothes or one of its white elements, in addition to use distinctive signs (for example, to pin on the flower).
Scenario of the second day of the wedding
As already mentioned, there are no restrictions. These can be flights on balloons, parachute jumping, motorcycle racing, conquest of mountain peaks, wedding diving, etc.
But most often newlyweds choose:
- traditional option;
- picnic in nature;
- sauna or bath; active;
- walk on the boat or yacht.
Traditional
Parents and guests gather in a cafe where the day before they congratulated the young people on their marriage. The meeting of the guests is an important moment, it is necessary to prepare for it seriously, but to conduct it with humor.
Usually, before the entrance, a table is set up on which bottles of drinks are placed (vodka, white and red wine, beer and mineral water). They are taking a reception, for example, Dr. Opokhmel with an assistant, dressed in white robes. They conduct a survey of "patients", accompanying it with jokes, and they prescribe a "medicine", and also collect mandatory donations to the Fund of a young family.
In the traditional scenario of the second day of the wedding, the newlyweds have to participate in contests, drawings. The very first of them begins when they go to their places at the table. And by this time they are busy with false-married couples (a false husband is a woman, a false wife is a man) in caricature wedding dresses. Redeem the place either the young themselves, or their friends: for money or doing fun tasks.
In the traditional version of the second day of the wedding, there are many entertainments that have come to us from the past. For example, skating a mother-in-law (sometimes a father-in-law) on a trolley. But they all became much more harmless. Now no one will tilt the cart into the river, mud or puddle, although this is what they once did.
Picnic in nature
For all its attractiveness, it is necessary to take care of the organization of the trip in advance. The main dish of any picnic is a shish kebab. And it does not matter from what it will be cooked. Meat or fish should be marinated in advance. Well, or buy a ready-made semi-finished product. The remaining sandwiches and cuts after the solemn banquet (you can ask the waiters about this) and put in the fridge so that they do not deteriorate. Otherwise, the holiday can end in the hospital.
In a fire hazardous period, a visit to a forest or a forest park area, and, even more so, a fire can be prohibited. Find out where there are special places for recreation, equipped with everything you need. Otherwise instead of a holiday it is necessary to be explained with representatives of law enforcement bodies.
Disposable cups, plates, forks and spoons, cook a couple of days before departure: in the morning after the first day of the wedding, it's hard not to forget something. Pack the skewers, the liquid for ignition and charcoal. Required and drinking water.
The most important thing is to take the garbage bags. A holiday is a holiday, but it is also necessary to take care of the purity of nature.
The second day of the wedding in the sauna or bathhouse
This option will help restore the shaky health after the first day of the wedding. Relax, steam, swim in the pool. Newlyweds and guests can reincarnate in the ancient Greek gods of Olympus, dressed in a plain toga. Contests for the script 2 days of the wedding can be partially borrowed from the traditional version.
Active
This option is completely dependent on the hobbies of the newlyweds. In winter - ski slopes, travel on snowmobiles. And a ride in a sleigh pulled by three horses?
In the warmer months of the year - cycling, hiking, conquering a mountain peak or sea depth, hoisting a flag on a high-rise building - whatever.
More laser tag, paintball , football, volleyball and much more.
Walk on the boat or yacht
This option should be taken very responsibly. First of all, make a list of invitees. A special attention will be required by the entertainment program: it's hardly possible to manage by ourselves, so you will have to invite professionals. The same applies to the design of the deck.
Contests for the 2 nd day of the wedding
Any scenario of the second day of the wedding (regardless of venue, excluding some extreme) includes the main traditional competitions. You can spend them in cafes, in nature, in the sauna or on board the ship. And some even on the top of the mountain in a tourist tent.
Cleaning potatoes
Newlyweds are handed knives and an equal number of tubers of potatoes. Task: clean quickly and accurately. The winner is given the right and the duty to always peel potatoes.
Young parents
Before the newly-made husband and wife on the table (or any other surface) are put on the doll and on the diaper. Task: correctly swaddled. Time is not as important as quality.
A boy or a girl?
This competition is attended by guests. Two people (it can be the newlyweds themselves) sell the cake in pieces. One collects money for the girl, the other - for the boy. It is not forbidden to pay twice. As a result, they announce who the youngest spouses should be born first: a son or daughter.
Cabbage
A simple and funny contest. The newlyweds are offered something valuable, hidden on a tray among the large leaves of cabbage. Husband and wife find nothing. The leader of the contest loudly announces: "The most valuable are the children, and they are not found in cabbage!"
What exactly will be the script for the second day of the wedding - it does not matter, the main thing is that this day will be remembered forever for your fun and the presence of the closest and dearest people.
