The Grand Entrance
Transcript:
Of course, at a Wedding Reception, the first thing that happens generally, after the cocktail hour and after everybody’s settled in, is the Grand Entrance. This is where we invite the Bridal Party into the room and make it all exciting for everybody.
We will line everybody up and get them ready. We want to make sure the Bridal Party members are in the correct order and that they know what is expected. When they come out of those doors they need to know what they’re going to do. It’s a nice big show production. That’s why it’s called the Grand Entrance.
The video below shows us lining up the Parents, Flower Girl, Ring Bearer, Bridesmaids and Groomsmen, leading up to the Best Man, Maid of Honor, then the Bride and Groom. We made it really big for everyone.
And then if the Groom and/or Bride are up for it and feel comfortable talking on a microphone, it’s a nice touch to have the them welcome the guests. It adds a little elegance. You consider that the Bride & Groom have been invited into the room, it’s really big, everybody is standing up, it’s exciting. It just seems appropriate to have them say hello and thank all of their family and friends for being there.
