Daytime Parties. Success stories or horror stories?

We are planning for a 10:30 AM ceremony followed by a brunch reception. This will be a little cheaper than a dinner and brunch food is awesome! Chicken and waffles, PopTarts, bottomless mimosas, etc. Win win! What we're nervous about is whether people will dance and enjoy a DJ. Do y'all have any...

We are planning for a 10:30 AM ceremony followed by a brunch reception. This will be a little cheaper than a dinner and brunch food is awesome! Chicken and waffles, PopTarts, bottomless mimosas, etc. Win win! What we're nervous about is whether people will dance and enjoy a DJ. Do y'all have any tips about creating a lively day party vibe? Any fun additions that kept the dance floor going?

    I'm so glad I found your post... I'm planning a brunch wedding too!!! I've never been to a brunch wedding, but my friend was a bridesmaid in one.

    She said not as many people were on the dance floor, but I think that should be built into the expectations. Part of my reasoning for a brunch wedding was to have a more casual party and not a crazy/dance-and-alcohol one. We're going to keep it to a shorter dance time. We'd start with a fun/upbeat romantic song, having couples from our wedding party join us so the rest of the guests know the dance floor is open. Then, have the DJ play songs that are friendly to both individuals and couples (so single guests still have a chance to get on the dance floor if they want to, but we have very few singles coming anyway).
