Hi everyone! New to this forum and would love to get your thoughts on this: If you spend the entire cocktail hour greeting/taking photos with guests, will you be interrupted less during your reception?
FH and I just had our engagement party and I didn't realize how difficult it is to be the center of attention, we barely had a moment to eat. One example is that several people would come up and ask me if I can introduce them to my fiancé (honestly, if it were me, I'd just go up to him myself and say hi, not sure why I have to abruptly end the current conversation I'm in just to "introduce you" but whatever, lol)
So that had me thinking... if it was like that at a party with only 25 people, it will be worse with 100. So I was thinking of doing first look and wedding photos before the ceremony and then spending the entire cocktail hour greeting everyone and taking photos. I'm hoping this will minimize the number of people pulling me away when I'm on the dance floor.
Any thoughts on if this will work? Or anyone have other ideas that would help?
