Party Time


You always want to make sure that your activities proceed in a timely manner. But it depends on the length of your reception, but is smart and plan ahead and don’t leave details to chance. A great party must have what’s called “Flow”.
Usually with a reception lasting four hours or more you usually have time to schedule things then when you have a shorter event. Once you know exactly what you and your groom would like to do at your celebration, you can then notify your Dj and other wedding pros about your activities and times they will be accruing. Remember if you have a wedding consultant she can help with timing and pacing.

Hour One: Pictures, bride, groom, attendants and family members pose for wedding pictures.
Hour Two: Guest take there seats for there first course, champagne toast usually offered by the best man. Others such as the bride’s father or maid of honor may say a few words.
Some couples prefer to have their first dance, fallowed by their father-daughter and mother-son dances.
Hour Three: The main course is served, and guest dance and mingle.
Hour four: Cut and serve cake, the bride tosses her bouquet, and the groom tosses he garter (optional). Then guest begging to leave. These are just some guidelines. You are entitled to schedule your reception in whatever way you like. Whatever you decide plan your party in a way that’s most comfortable for everyone.
