FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT WEDDING RECEPTIONS

How long should a wedding reception be?

The sweet spot is about 4-5 hours. Any less and you’ll feel rushed to squeeze in the dining, dancing and drinks. And if you start pushing it to 6 or 7 hours your guests will be either losing interest or will have worn themselves out.

What is the typical order for a wedding and a reception?

The wedding pieces vary from couple to couple depending on religion, formality, etc. Some are much more involved and traditionally meaningful, while others are lovely in their simplicity. Go with what’s right for you. Our Cactus Collective Weddings couples usually choose a variation that looks something like this:

  • Processional
  • Reading
  • Vows
  • Ring Exchange
  • Kiss
  • Recessional

Photography time and travel time to the reception would come next. We’ll address the reception order in the answer to the next question.

What are the steps in a wedding reception?

Traditionally, a reception unfolds in a time-honored sequence. Traditions come and go and you may want to remove some of these from your reception timeline.

  • Receiving Line
  • Cocktail Hour
  • Guests Enter Reception
  • Wedding Party Entrance
  • Newlyweds’ Grand Entrance
  • First Dance
  • Welcome Speech / Blessing / Prayer
  • Reception Meal / Dinner
  • Toasts/Speeches
  • Special Dances
  • Party Time
  • Cake Cutting
  • Bouquet / Garter Toss
  • Grand Exit

Choosing your wedding day extra touches

Treating yourselves to these extra touches is often decided by available budget, your wedding style and number of guests. Where you’re traveling from could also affect your decision. For example, overseas couples may choose to have videography because this is the one time they’ll visit their wedding venue, so want a little something more to remember it by.

If you’re unsure which extra touches you need for your day send us your extra questions along with details of the elopement package and location you’d like.
