ORDER OF RECEPTION INTRODUCTIONS

After the social (cocktail) hour, I will invite your guests to take their seats in the reception area. Depending on the number of guests, this should take about ten minutes. While the guests are being seated, as the individual doing your introductions I will be getting your bridal party in order. As soon as guests are seated and the bridal party is in order, the introductions should begin.

Ideally, I'm in charge of making these introductions because this creates the smoothest transition from music to each introduction. There are some halls like Disney that uses a Town Crier and individuals wishing to have a specific family member announce the bridal party. In a situation like that, you should make the final decision as to who should have this responsibility during our time-line production meeting.

For each event I'm making the announcements, I will distribute to all vendors an event time-line outlining the suggested order. When your announcement list is compiled of your bridal party names, you may want to write down something about each person so your guests will know why that person is special to you. Whether it is funny or sentimental, everyone will enjoy this personal touch.

Introductions are usually performed in this order with the exception of Primary and Secondary Sponsors:

1. Grandparents
A grandmother should always be escorted. (Grandparents can also be introduced from their table).

2. Parents of the bride

3. Parents of the groom
If there is an extended family. The bride's mother and her escort are introduced first. Next, the bride's dad with whomever he is escorting. Then, the groom's mother with her escort. Last, the groom's father with whomever he is escorting. (A mother should always be escorted).

4. Flower Girl with Ring Bearer

5. Jr. Bridesmaid and Jr. Usher

6. Bridesmaids and Ushers
(If there is an extra maid or usher, three people could be announced together).

7. Maid or Matron of Honor and Best Man

8. The Bride and Groom

The Music Used For Introductions:

Instrumentals (with no vocalist singing) are usually played for the introductions. I recommend choosing two songs, one for the bridal party and one for the bride and groom.

You may want to consider a song that is unique and personal, especially for the introduction of the bride and groom. For example a bride and groom that are in the Navy might choose "Anchors Away!" Or a college fight song

About two weeks before your wedding date, we will have a meeting and go over the names and order of all who will be introduced.

Don't worry if on your wedding day there is a last minute change. I will have no problem at all making the changes.

Lastly, if you don't want all the above people introduced, it is perfectly fine to have just the bride and groom introduced.

ALWAYS remember...It is your special day to share with your friends and family however you choose.
