Don’t Over Schedule Your Reception!

It’s tempting to pack your reception with traditions, activities and special moments, but every extra formality takes time away from something your guests are really looking forward to:

THE PARTY!

When building your timeline, ask yourself which moments truly matter to YOU. Introductions, first dance, parent dances, toasts, cake cutting, bouquet toss, group photos…they can all be great, but you don’t necessarily need them all.

A great reception timeline should have structure without feeling structured. Leave room for your guests to eat, mingle, celebrate and DANCE!

To ensure everything goes smoothly on your big day, you need a wedding timeline. From what time to start your hair and makeup to when to take family portraits with your photographer, here, an expert explains the best timeline to follow for your nuptials.

In the hustle and bustle of planning a wedding it's easy to not think about how your guests will arrive and depart for the day.

Arrange transportation options, provide rideshare information, or reserve hotel shuttles if many guests are traveling. Ending the night safely is one of the best gifts you can give the people celebrating with you.

A great wedding isn't just remembered, it's appreciated.

If you need to organize transportation for your wedding party and guests on your wedding day, there are a few important things to know. We break down how to book shuttles for weddings, average costs, and creative transportation ideas for your celebration.

🎶 Don’t Build Your Reception Playlist for Everyone Else 🎶

It’s easy to start choosing music based on what you think your guests expect to hear.

But remember... this is your wedding!

Give your DJ a solid list of songs that sound like you: the songs you sing in the car, the throwbacks you grew up with, the artists you love and the tracks that instantly bring back memories.
Then leave some room for your DJ to read the dance floor, take great requests and connect the dots between your musical personality and your guests’ energy.

The best wedding playlists aren’t 100 songs long.

They’re a great starting point + an experienced DJ who knows what to do with it. 🎧🔥

Pick the songs that tell us who you are. We’ll help build the party around them.

It may sound strange, but one of the best pieces of wedding advice we can give is...

Don't spend your entire reception side-by-side.

Of course you'll share your first dance, cake cutting, and plenty of special moments together. But during the reception, don't be afraid to split up for a while.

You'll reach far more guests, everyone will feel appreciated, and you'll each create your own unique memories from the night.

It's vital to make sure every single one of your wedding guests feels the love.
