Can you help get Bubba to the reception and hang with him at the entry to greet people? Get him home safely? We would love to have a couple of folks volunteer to help with Bubba's safety and transportation so he can be part of the day. Early venture, done by 9pm.*Any monetary donations here will be allocated to Bubba's care expenses (boarding, etc.) around the wedding*

Help set up flowers & photos with us! Maybe stay to finalize if we're short on time. Flowers: vases/hanging around the venue. We're planning to buy flowers from street vendors the day of and bring some vases. Also help put some pictures of us around on tables, etc.. The venue is the decor, so we're just adding some pops here and there. Nothing major! Support and direction from us :) *Any monetary donations here will be allocated to flower expenses for the wedding*

We're planning on hosting an open bar all night! I figure contributing to that is a better gift than another toaster we don't need ... feel free to chip in (or not)!

Are you decent at taking photos? I know we have a ton of talented friends who are great! That could be your gift to us! Instead of hiring a professional photographer we don't know, it would be great if a few folks brought their fancy cameras and took turns capturing photos from a slightly more elevated perspective than the phones and polaroids I'm planning on. Happy to talk through this more with folks who are interested.*Any monetary donations here will go to the photographer's*

Should be an easy one! The venue will have a full staff on hand to assist as well, so you wouldn't be solely responsible.We're planning to just share a playlist with the venue, but if someone could help ensure everything runs smoothly, that would be great! Like any impromptu song requests, knowing the mic works for any music/speeches, needed music breaks, etc.Also, making sure the photo slideshow goes up, keeps running, and looks good. *Monetary donations here go to the helpers*

With so many talented people in our lives, it seems crazy not to leave this option. Play an acoustic set, something instrumental, sing a song alone or with a group - whatever! OR, want to draw caricatures or mini portraits of guests for a bit? Cool! An art piece or something you made is great, too. There won't be a full-band setup, but the venue hosts regular events and performances, and a staff member will be on hand to help.* Monetary donations here will go to performers.

Arrive early at the ceremony site (nearby park) to make sure it's clear of people, that no garbage is lying around, and to set up some simple signage and flowers. Venue folks will be there to direct you for chair setup, directions, etc.
