INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Even if you're not sure on the specific figure, you can determine roughly what size of wedding you want. This will help you get quotes from caterers and venues while allowing you to figure out the specific number later. Some people decide just to invite immediate family members and a few close friends. A small wedding is generally around 50-75 people. The average wedding is around 150 people. A large wedding is 200 people or more. The easiest way to decide how many people to invite is to look at how many people you can afford to invite. The more people you invite, the more expensive the reception and ceremony will be. If your parents are chipping in, find out how much each couple is contributing. Factor that into how much you and your partner can afford to spend. Get a few quotes from local caterers to see how much the reception may cost per person. Remember to factor in drinks and cake as well. Catering should take up about 25% of your budget. The number of people you can invite may be decided by where you have your wedding. If you have your heart set on a particular venue, ask them how many people they can hold. Do not invite more than this number, or else you may find yourself scrambling to fit everyone. Both you and your partner will want to invite important family and friends. Furthermore, both sets of parents may have ideas about who should come. A good way to fairly decide is to divide up the guest list amongst you, your partner, and both sets of parents. Some ways you can decide: Divide the list in thirds. One third for your guests, one third for your partner's guests, and one third for mutual friends. Divide the list in fourths: one fourth for your guests, one fourth for your partner's guests, one fourth for your parents' guests, and one fourth for your partner's parents guests. One half of the guest list is for you and your partner's friends. Each set of parents receives one-fourth of the guest list. While traditionally it is advised that both sides of the family invite the same number of guests, you should divide the guest list based on your circumstances and preferences.

SUMMARY: Determine a ballpark figure. Consider your budget. Find out the size of the venue. Divide the guest list.

Depending on the severity of the concussion, your doctor may prescribe a few days to a few weeks off from work or school as a part of your recovery process. Let your boss and/or teachers know that you have had a concussion and that your doctor has prescribed you time off. Give them a note from your doctor as proof of the diagnosis and prescription. Ask your doctor how you can help your boss understand what has happened. If you are in school, work with your teachers to see how you can make up any missed class time once you are better, whether it is through extra work or summer school. Use your vacation or sick time if you need to. In some cases, you may need to provide a medical leave letter to your employer in order to take time off. Once your doctor gives you the green light to go back to work or school, avoid picking up where you left off. Ask your boss if they can reassign your most physically or mentally challenging projects to someone else. Alternatively, see if it is ok if you only work half-days until you are fully recovered. If you are in school, ask your teacher if they can reduce your homework load. You may need to have a reduced workload for a few days to a week, depending on the severity of your concussion. Once your symptoms disappear, your doctor will assess the progression of your recovery. If you have fully recovered, then it is ok to return to your normal work and school activities. If your symptoms come back after returning to your normal activities, make sure to contact your doctor. The time it takes for a full recovery depends on the severity of the concussion, as well as how soon you were treated after sustaining the concussion. If you sustained a mild to moderate concussion, it may take 1 to 2 weeks to recover. If your concussion is more severe, it may take 3 weeks to a month to fully recover. If you were treated later rather than sooner, it may take you 1 to 2 extra weeks to recover.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: While most people who are present at the dinner may know you, not everyone will. A simple greeting and your name will do. An example of introducing yourself as a part of the speech is "Hi everyone, my name's Morgan." This could be through being a parent, sibling, or a lifelong friend. Include that you appreciate being asked to speak. An example of how to start is "I've been friends with Sam since preschool, and I am honored to be able to congratulate Sam and Corey tonight." If you have a funny story about your relationship with the couple, this is a perfect time to share it. For example, "With the amount of heated competition that goes on during our board game nights, I'm surprised that Sam and Corey are even still talking to me, let alone are letting me stand up here tonight!" Show your appreciation for all the people who have gathered to celebrate at the rehearsal dinner. Say something along the lines of "Thank you, everyone, for being here to share and celebrate this wonderful occasion." Now is also a good time to acknowledge any special people in the audience or who couldn't make the event. For example, some family members may have travelled a long way to be at the rehearsal dinner. Saying "We are so happy that John and Anne have travelled all the way from Canada to be with us on this special occasion," works well. Similarly, if there are any special people that couldn't be at the wedding, as they may be unwell or have recently passed away, acknowledge them at this time too.

SUMMARY:
Say hello and introduce yourself. Explain your relationship to the couple. Thank and welcome everyone at the rehearsal dinner.
