Mac,
As the only adult papist in my household Ill be organizing the first holy communion day for my eldest
please do up a checklist of things i need to have ready for the day
anything else
can you give me ideas in regards to the dress and meal
Seeing as mac abandoned his post as the go to man for all things communion related can I please enquire before I offer any advice, what do you mean by meal ?
I.e. Will you prepare and eat it at your home or will you go to a hotel or similar for a celebratory meal.
hotel or restaurant
keeping it low key
Regards
Mac
We got caught out with our eldest. We went to a restaurant rather than have the bother of doing stuff at home. Lots of his mates had functions at home and bouncy castles etc.
Our meal was done and dusted by 5:30pm.
Everyone dispersed then, and Brimmer junior was forlorn and a little annoyed and suffering from post big day blues, when his big day was abruptly finished at 5:30pm.
We hadn’t factored in the early finish.
I’d recommend inviting all the attendees at the meal back to the house for evening teas or similar.
On the day I’ve mentioned above I promptly rang around a few hotels and we got a booking in cork and were checking into a hotel with pool within 90mins, this made his day complete, we didn’t make the same mistake with the other 2 and pre booked a hotel with pool in advance so after we hunt the relations home its into the car for a night away and some shopping the day after.
St Slyvesters or Seabury Church mate?
It may be a bit late in the day for booking restaurants mate. I’d say it’s either high or low left now. Bon appetite or macaris.
You’ll need to buy a dress for your daughter too.
