Announcing Bridal Party?

Kylene, on June 5, 2014 at 11:14 AM Posted in Planning 0 14

Who out there is announcing their bridal party and how are you doing it?

I'm torn. I've been to weddings that do it both ways and can't decide what I prefer. One wedding I was in did a really cute introduction of all of the bridesmaids/groomsmen like they were a basketball team - super cute. Others just announced the bride and groom and that was it.

Thoughts on this?

    We had ours introduced. The DJ announced their first names only, and for the MOH & Best Man he said their titles too.

    We had no idea until the first pair went that they all had planned a different silly pose for when they got to the landing of the stairs we were coming down too. Even the little ring bearers (DH's nephews) did one, so we had to think of our own really fast. It was great!

    I feel like they've done so much for you & were special enough for you to ask them to be part of your wedding, they should get some recognition too. Besides, it only takes a couple extra minutes and it's fun Smiley smile

    We had ours announced. They walked out to "Let's Get Ready To Rumble". The DJ introduced them by 1st names only. We left it up to them if they wanted to do anything fun or not.

    We had our entire bridal party announced. But since we were running 30 minutes behind the entire day, it was more of a hurry up and get to the front of the room. But each couple was introduced and picked their "style of dancing" on the way up. Think the end of the movie Hitch.

    We had all of our bridal party announced, but there were only 4 of them. Each person had a short bio that my husband and I wrote about them, and that was read as they walked out into the room.

    We didn't - I've never been a fan of it.

    I'm just having the DJ announce us. I don't like the bridal party intros and my bridesmaids don't want to.

    They'll be announced.

    The DJ will do the honours.

    First names only, but MOH and best man will have their titles announced before their first names

    Poses, something silly etc, totally up to them, but I hope they do it Smiley smile

    We're skipping it because two of my bridesmaids (including my MOH) are very shy so I know they would be uncomfortable doing it. They will however be listed in the program.

    Were doing it and allowing each couple to pick their song they wanna enter to. the DJ will do like a chorus clip of the song they choose and they can enter however they want. i will be having them introduced as "maid of honor firstname lastname and groomsman firstname lastname" and "best man firstname lastname and bridesmaid firstname lastname" because my MOH and best man arent walking in together. my MOH will walk in with a GM who is her fiance, and the best man will enter with a different bridesmaid so i want people to know who is who. then we will enter last to our own song

    They'll be announced, First and Last name, by the dj. Other than that, I have no idea what song, as it changes everyday. Yesterdays song for the BP intro was "Friends in Low Places" by Garth Brooks

    Our venue coordinator pretty much told us we HAVE to do it lol. So yeah, we'll just quickly have everyone go back inside, walking couple by couple, and have my husband and me following at the end.
