Just returned from a wedding... bad flow - reception timeline?

So I just got back from an afternoon wedding and my FH and I thought that the flow was terrible. The bride and groom weren't introduced, we had our entire dinner before they had their first dance, people only danced a few songs, etc. I have been to weddings where people dance throughout the affair...

I have been to weddings where people dance throughout the affair and everything just flows naturally. (And time just flies!) My last friend who had a fantastic wedding unfortunately didn't know what the timeline was. Has anyone been to a reception with great flow where everyone had a great time and known what the timeline was?

We know we have great food, an open bar and a great DJ... so we want to make sure that people can enjoy all of the above throughout the reception rather than it feeling choppy!

    @ Hollyann - I think I like the idea of this timeline the best I've seen so far...
