Remember!

Remember to assign someone the chore of taking home all of your gifts and wedding items after the wedding.

It should be a large, cleaned out vehicle that will be driven to a safe location. It should not be a vehicle that is staying overnight at a hotel, because there will be gifts inside and that's an invitation for a break-in.

If you will have a large amount of items after the wedding (candles, flowers, containers, etc.) then you may want to assign two vehicles to this task.

Everything must leave the wedding reception location that evening - so it's best to make the process smooth and easy.
