Planning your wedding formalities provides an excellent opportunity to personalize your reception.  Incorporating your ideas, unique style and personality into your reception’s special moments will make them more memorable for you and your guests. What better place to start than with your wedding party introductions?

Your introductions are a very effective way to set the tone of the reception and instantly let your guests know exactly what you have in store for them!

What is your wedding vision? A high-energy introduction with hot, upbeat music and lively crowd participation suggests that dancing and celebrating are important to you both.  This wedding will burn up the dance floor!

A more low-key introduction, without a lot of hoopla may be your preference if you don’t like a lot of attention placed on you.   Weddings are not “cookie cutter”.  What feels right for one couple may not be a good fit for another, so don’t do anything that makes you uncomfortable in front of all your guests on the biggest day of your life.

Personalized wedding party introductions, where the DJ/MC shares a supplied tidbit of information about each person as they are introduced, clearly focuses on how much the bride and groom value their relationships with their wedding party. They hope that sharing a brief personal memory about each member of their wedding party will initiate a new connection with all the guests and help unify both families and friends.

A great wedding venue and vendors will work diligently to help you set the tone for exactly the type of wedding party introductions you envision.  They’ll work together as a team for you to make it happen, even if it’s different from their usual practice.

Your wedding is your special day.  Explore all the possibilities and discuss them with your vendors.  They will help you to create the perfect introductions and reception to match your vision.
