Reception Program - Makes or Breaks Your Day
A reception program is contemplated from a decided theme and a program host is there to run it.. That’s fine but they have to remember the sequence in running the show and how long it takes to sustain the guests on foot. An ideal length is 2 hours and 15 minutes that includes mealtime. Making it so long negates the mood. Through experience and exposure we are aware of this.
Maintaining the standard flow is safe and if there are inclusions then they are used to maintain the steady flow. As a rule we do the most important parts of the celebration first. The traditions are never missed and necessary because they are here to stay. They are special rituals and symbolic.
We always emphasize, if it is a buffet serving that souvenir shots are done first before proceeding to the banquet table to avoid congestion and run things smoothly on the handle. It is also convenient for the couple rather than they move around to have their pictures taken with the guests.
Any program has its climax by choosing the next bride and groom to be in the future, so to speak and a game is devised either by the couple but on our part we do not divulge the mechanics as a surprise. We want to involve the couple at the same time. It has a positive feedback and we want to maintain it that way. Who knows the chosen partners might wind up together. Let’s see!
After the program we encourage dancing to make the most of the time. Hired DJ does the job. Some of your relatives and friends stay to carry on the merriment. It is your big day and enjoy the moment.
