Where does bridal party stand?

Jan87, on July 27, 2014 at 11:54 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 6

Hi everyone!

I am still working in the reception timeline. I'm having a hard time figuring out where the wedding party stands after they are introduced. They can stand infront of the head table, but that's off to the side so I'm afraid it might look funny. I can do it so they are off to the right side at the back (still at the front of the room if that makes sense) but when can they sit down? After our first dance (since we're doing it right after our entrance) or can they sit before? Ah! So many details to consider. :s

    I suppose they can stand behind their seats. I find it odd that I can't find information about this online. :s

    I've never seen a bridal party just stand. I've actually only seen the introduction of the bridal party twice, and than happened as they came in. Then once everyone is in, the food starts!

    I'd let them sit after they come in if you're going to do the first dance first.

    I think they should just sit down at their table.

    Ours were just standing around when we arrived, we did our first dance and the father daughter dance, then the dj introduced them one by one and they came up the front as their name was called, at the end they all took a bow and returned to whatever they were doing
