Royal wedding party





Everyone loves a good wedding and many people across the UK will be holding a royal wedding party - whether that’s just a few friends at your home or, a full-on street party.

Here at FrithRugs we’ve provided the ultimate guide to celebrating the wedding with friends.

Red Carpet

You’ve got have a red carpet for your arriving guests and while it’s unlikely anyone will be hiring or investing in a real red carpet, you can buy a red rug quite cost effectively to have outside your front door (weather permitting) or in the hall to great your guests.  Make it feel like red carpet by having somebody take pap shots of the guests as they arrive.

Welcome drinks

Before the ceremony takes place, provide your guests with a couple of glasses of fizz to break the ice as the mingle.  If you want to be really patriotic – buy some English champagne or sparkling wine.

Ceremony

It’s time to take your seats to await the arrival of the bride.  Have the ceremony displayed on the biggest TV screen you have and have the volume up really loud.  A union jack rug in front the of the telly will help get guests in the mood.

Wedding Breakfast

After you have watched the wedding, it’s time for the wedding breakfast.  In the case of our house party, we want to easy to prepare and easy to eat finger food –your good old British buffet fayre – although you could have a nod to Meghan’s American roots with some burgers and hot dogs too.    We do know the newlyweds are not having a traditional wedding cake and have opted for a lemon and elderflower flavoured sponge and so you could if you wish, follow suit.

Party Time

We hope for a rain free, warmish evening and it would be lovely if you could take the party outside.  Provide plenty of blankets for the guest to snuggle in if it gets too chilly and cotton based rugs like our Dhurrie flatweaves are great for people who want to lounge about on the floor.   With Ed Sheeran as the appointed wedding singer for Meghan and Harry, a few of his greatest hits will do down a treat.

Then, it’s time to let your hair down and enjoy the rest of the evening with your friends and family – and of course, have a toast to the newlyweds.
