Essential etiquette tips for cottage wedding guests

Being a wedding guest is a lot more complicated than simply showing up. There are always delicate etiquette issues you need to be conscious of – spending enough on a gift, inviting an appropriate date, expressing proper gratitude and well wishes to the newly married couple. If you don’t go out of your way to be considerate, it could result in bad blood between you and the bride and groom. And if your friends or family members decide to get hitched up at a cottage, you can expect to deal with a whole host of new etiquette issues.

Be aware of the limited resources

Don’t whine about the weather (or the bugs)

Dress to impress—even if it’s a casual wedding

Respect the neighbours

Don’t mess with the natural surroundings

Bring a gift that’s easy to take back to the city
