Grand entrance help

Ashley, on July 10, 2017 at 9:31 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 9

Okay so my FH and I are filling out information for the DJ. My parents are divorced so they are going to be announced at the reception separate. My FH mom and dad are also divorced however his dad has remarried. So his mother is being introduced separate as well. His dad and step mom will be introduced together... do they need to have to be introduced as ms, mr.mrs. Etc or just first and last name.. kinda was wondering for the BM and GM intros as well .. hope this makes sense.. help! Please Smiley smile

    In the 2 dozen wedding I've attended, I've never seen/heard anyone announced except the bridal party and couple. I don't see why they have to be introduced at all. Our parents greeting our guests, as they arrived at the ceremony. They wore flowers; everyone knew who one or both couples were, anyway.

    I've never been to a wedding where the parents made a "grand entrance" to the reception either. It's always been the wedding party followed by bride and groom.

    Im with the PP. Parents arent normally introduced in the Grand entrance. Bridal party only.

    I think it is a matter of showing respect and calling them Mr & Mrs

    Grand March introduces the BP (each member by first name only and does not include titles or SO's) and the new MR and Mrs. That's it.

    If an agreement can't be resolved, have the DJ/MC introduce the new Mr and Mrs only. Everyone else should be at their table.

    ETA: this is not the time for a prom/ everyone included Grand March. If there is a grand march it is meant for Bride and Groom first, BP second as optional. . Never parents.

    Every wedding I've been to has introduced parents with the BP. BM and GM just first and last name: "Ashley Smith and John Scott." Parents- "Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Jones" and "Ms. Dianna Murphy" if single.
