You can arrive to the ceremony up to 30 minutes before, but arrive no later than 10 minutes before to avoid run-ins with the wedding party. You don’t want to be *that* guest who has to awkwardly stand near the bride and her father before their big entrance (during what should be a special time!).

You are only allowed a plus one if the invitation reads “and guest.” Arrive early to the ceremony. On that note, make sure you also only RSVP for the number of guests allotted for your invitation.

So I’ve pulled together gracious etiquette tips that, no matter how many weddings you’ve been to, are always good to keep in mind.
