Crafting your best unique wedding reception with Tanya

Now, we move on to creating another special part of your day – crafting your best unique wedding reception.

The wedding reception is the part of your day where you get to celebrate your new union of marriage with your loved ones, so it should be exactly how you envision it.

I have designed the following reception forms to help me understand what you want to include in your wedding reception and what you do not. It will also assist me in preparing a time schedule, in the form of a run sheet, to ensure everything you desire runs smoothly.

I have divided each part of your reception into easy-to-complete sections. If, while completing each part, you need assistance, please remember that you don’t have to do this alone—I am here to help. So, if you find the forms a bit daunting, just let me know, and we can arrange a meeting to work on them together.

The information provided in this form allows me to communicate to your guests what will be happening between your ceremony and reception. This includes details about the family and friends’ special photo session with the newlyweds, the official wedding photo session, and any pre-dinner arrangements for the guests.

Introductions at your wedding reception can vary, including options like a traditional reception receiving line, parent reception entry, wedding party entry, and the couple’s grand entrance. These introductions set the tone for your reception and formally announce your presence as newlyweds. You have the flexibility to choose which introductions you’d like to include, and these forms will help you make those selections.

Wedding speeches and toasts are a cherished part of every wedding reception, allowing family and friends to share fond memories and express their joy for the couple’s union. These heartfelt moments create a special atmosphere during the reception. To make this process smoother, I’ve created a dedicated form to collect information about the speeches and toasts you’d like to include in your wedding reception. This will help ensure that your reception reflects your preferences and desires.

The meal is a central highlight of your wedding reception, and it’s important to ensure that your guests are well-informed about the dining arrangements. Providing them with details about the meal and how they can enjoy the delicious choices you’ve curated can contribute to a smooth and enjoyable dining experience. These forms will help me gather information about your meal plans and ensure that your guests are informed accordingly.

Incorporating entertaining activities into your wedding reception adds an extra layer of excitement and keeps the celebratory spirit alive throughout the event. These forms offer a variety of activities for you to choose from, allowing you to customise your reception and create the atmosphere you desire for your celebration.

Dancing is undoubtedly one of the most enjoyable aspects of many weddings. While there’s a customary sequence for the traditional wedding dances it’s important to bear in mind that the primary objective of dancing at weddings is to provide a joyous and memorable experience for guests as they celebrate the union of the newlyweds. These forms will help me to know what dancing you would like to have included.
