Weddings are a social minefield.

From the old family relatives, you very rarely see, to the endless supply of booze and horrible dancing - we all make an absolute show of ourselves. There are a few social laws that should never be broken at an Irish wedding. So whether or not you're planning on going to a nuptial soon you might want to keep this list on the fridge for future reference. Here are our five tips on how to survive an Irish wedding. 1. Have a solid breakfast An Irish wedding is a marathon, not a sprint. You're going to want to get a good feed into you before you head to the service. You will thank us later when you are a few glasses of wine in and there isn't even a hint of the dinner being served. via GIPHY 2. Shifty occasion The last thing you need to do is cause wedding drama. Irish weddings are a match-making heaven, but it's probably best to keep it purely PG, well at least until the resident's bar opens. via GIPHY 3. Now probably isn't a good time to tell that story about... As they say 'What goes on tour, stays on tour'. A wedding is not the right time to discuss hen party antics, details how the groom and bride broke up for two months, or how well the best man and maid of honour actually really know each other. Just keep the revelations for another day okay. Keep it zipped. via GIPHY 4. If someone asks you to céilí ... You céilí. It's as simple as that. If someone tries to grind with you on the dance floor to Lil Wayne, however, you get yourself out of there pronto. No one wants to see that before the sandwiches at 12. via GIPHY 5. Don't mess with the bride Whatever you do don't even think about insulting anything about the wedding when she is in a 100 ft radius. The same goes for mother of the bride. It will not go down well. You've been warned. This article is brought to you by Mike & Dave Need Wedding Dates. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6CqIRa9lBc&feature=youtu.be
