How to Write Directions for a Wedding
Inviting wedding guests who come from far and wide is not uncommon. On your wedding day, not only will you be able to see family members who have moved away, you will also be able to reconnect with friends from past years of your life. However, this treat can turn into a frustrating mess if no one knows how to easily reach the wedding venue. If you cannot provide all of your out-of-town guests with transportation to the ceremony site, give them clear directions to make their arrival easier.

Tips & Warnings
Provide the number of a designated navigator who is not a member of the wedding party at the bottom of your directions. He should be someone who knows the town very well so that he can direct guests to the venue if they find themselves lost.
