Help me sort out where the first dance goes,and when we play music

[caribbeanLover]

ok so I've ask a million people and I'm still confused. I hope you girls can help me get it all sorted, as I am now in sheer panic mode.

This is for the reception I'm having which is on the beach for 3 hours, and I finally decided to hire a dj as suppose to a docking system and doing it our selves.

so the bridal party and parents get introduced, then the newlywed. Do we have our first dance right from there.. or should we play some music.

Or do we have all the 'formal' dances like ours and then father/daughter mother/son and then everyone comes in dancing right from the interduction?

Please help!!!!!

Thanks so much in advance

 

Now for the ceremony, Who is getting a family member to play the music for them? I was told I had to get someone to do that for me ?? (odd!!!! I'm paying enough for the package)

Should I have music playing in the back when we are doing the toasting?
