Lindz, we need to meet up for a drink!!!
How much did you girls tip D.J. Mannia and Landy? I know I've seen this a million times, but if someone wouldn't mind sharing that would be great.
Also, let me know what you think about this...my ceremony is at 6:00, and we have d.j. mannia, so basically, if we did cocktail hour at 7-8, we wouldn't be done eating dinner until like 8:30-9, and have to be done with d.j. mannia at 10:30? I think that's not long at all...so, I'm thinking of a cocktail hour before the wedding? From 5:00-6:00, wedding at 6:00-6:30, and rite after group pics, the guests can head to the reception and begin eating rite away. I'm not concerned about eating honestly, I'm sure I'll get it in at some point..that way, we could get moving with d.j. mannia, etc. Let me know your thoughts, and if anyone can weigh in on how much photos, reception actually take, please let me know!!!
Thanks!!!
Lonna Hi Lonna, seems like your priority is to have more time for music and dancing afterwards so heres a thought... as you dont mind your guests seeing you before the ceremony at your cocktail hour why dont you start even earlier and get all your group pictures done beforehand as well.
You could even get your couple shots done too, it may seem like a pain to be ready this much earlier than your ceremony but in my opinion we dont get to wear our dresses for long enough on the day any-way!
That way you could have much more time after and get to eat, I know you say you dont mind not eating but you're gonna need something after a full day of chaos and champagne!
Its nice to see people thinking about doing things a little differently, I think a DW really gives us the opportunity to think outside the box.
Good Luck with everything.
