Reception intros.... for just the wedding party!

XXXBride, on May 29, 2019 at 10:18 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 3
Hi everyone! So we have decided to skip on intros for ourselves, so we will just be going into reception with everyone after cocktail hour but My fiancé wants to honor our wedding party by introducing them- any ideas on how to do this.? We will already be at our table and do not want intros for us so it would just be to introduce them- we have 6 BM’s 11 groomsmen and our MOH and Best man.

Help please! 😬

    Do you mean creative intros for 19 individual people or for the whole group? Because if it's individual, even at 15 seconds a piece, which is fast, that's 5 minutes, which doesn't seem like it's a lot, but it is for guests to sit through I think. Any wedding I've been to, I really could care less who was included in the bridal party. I think the bridal party is really there for the bride and groom. I guess if you just wanted to have the DJ announce their names that's cool, but anything more than that I think may be a bit over the top. Although, it is your wedding and you could take 30 minutes to introduce all 19 members with an intricate choreographed routine and that would be fine too. What ideas does your fiance have?

    Hey!!

    I also have a similar question, do you want to quickly introduce each wedding party member by name, or are you planning on saying a short ‘Thank You’ speech to each person? With 19 people, this may take quite a long time.

    Perhaps you could have a discussion with your FH to distill exactly what he envisions.

    I have the absolute same questions as you both lol! He has no ideas - just feels like they’re spending all of this time and money to be a part of our day and they deserve to be honored for it. I totally agree but they will be walking down the aisle with us, and each given a handwritten note and well thought out (and fairly expensive) gifts, that was my way to really thank them. But it definitely won’t be a thank you speech if anything it would be just announcing their names but you’re totally right- 19 people is a heck of a lot.
