Reception entrance dance

Stephanie , on May 19, 2019 at 2:11 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 5
So my fiancé and i are Planning a surprise entrance dance and not sure what to do about something. No one knows we are doing this except us and the dj so i previously Told the bridal party that once they are introduced into the reception to go to where their seats are because i didn’t want them really waiting for us and not knowing what to do. The tables are not so close to the dance floor because it’s a huge room, i mean They aren’t drastically far but we will feel kind of far away from our audience. Now I’m wondering if i should Tell the bridal party to stand around the dance floor “to watch our first dance” and then maybe guests will get up for that as well or have the dj tell people to come around the dance floor or should i just Let what happens happens and if people get up then they do? Wasn’t sure if the bridal party wouldn’t because of the previous instructions to enter to their seat. What do you think?

    Do you want people to crowd around and watch or will they be able to see from their seats? I think a lot of people might be confused and not know what’s going on if they can’t see and there’s no announcement.

    I’m not sure what to have him announce. I’m sure the people close to the dance floor will be able to see but if people are standing those in the back might not

    Maybe something like "The bride and groom prepared a special treat for everyone, please join us around the dance floor"?

    Hi Stephanie!

    This sounds like so much fun Smiley smile

    Personally, I think it might be a good idea to ask the bridesmaids to stand around the dance floor or area where you will do the dance. If they stay around the dance floor, clapping and hyping your guests up, the guests will get a feeling something is up and can come closer for a better look if they can't see Smiley smile

    What is the dance/song? Or is it super top secret?!

    Thanks everyone. At first i told Dj to make an announcement but then i changed My mind and decided to let whatever happens happens because it’s a short entrance like a little under 2 minutes and i really Didn’t want to make things confusing for guests so if they come up naturally then so be it or stay at their chairs that’s fine too. And yes super top secret lol we’re pretty excited to surprise everyone
