Timing the "First Dance"
TIMING IS EVERYTHING
One of the most meaningful moments during any reception is the couple's first dance together as husband and wife so its important to find the right time to do this. We recommend this being one of the first thing you tackle on the big day.
GET DOWN TO BUSINESS
We usually recommend that after the couple enters their reception, its a perfect time for the first dance. It kicks off the entire night with your guests watching the special moment of a new union and it couldn't get sweeter than that!
NERVES GETTING TO YOU?
If dancing in front of a big crowd makes you nervous we suggest you wait until after dinner for a seamless transition into dancing! It also encourages guests to join you on the dance floor following the first dance moment, going right into party mode!
DO YOU HAVE A DIFFERENT IDEA?
Ultimately, there's no right or wrong answer. As long as the timing feels right to the couple and the music plays, its going to be a magical moment!
LASTLY, DON'T FORGET TO PICK A GREAT SONG TO DANCE TO!

IN & OUT TRUCK + ICE CREAM CHURROS = YES!
Everyone is familiar with the traditional aspects of a wedding reception: the first dance, cake-cutting, bouquet toss, etc.; but we've starting seeing an increase in couples incorporating more unique personal touches and fun activities for guests throughout the night!
ELEMENTS LIKE THESE ARE MAKING THEIR WAY TO THE PARTY!
Don't be afraid to discuss options with your vendors or research high impact ways to make your big day even more meaningful and special to you and yours.
