The wedding reception is the start of the fun. If you haven't hired a wedding planner you may wish to get a toastmaster who will greet and announce your guests. They will usually introduce the speakers and generally make sure that the day goes smoothly.
At a straight wedding, the bride and groom, together with their parents, will greet their guests as they arrive at the reception. If you choose to do this, and you have a lot of guests, make sure that the guests have somewhere comfortable to wait, with perhaps a glass of champagne or sherry being served to them
If your photographer is only staying for the beginning of the wedding reception, make some time to do a fake cake cutting picture for your album.
Your seating plan will have been worked out with the top table reserved for you, your parents and the best men or maids of honour.
For place names, try hand writing the names with a gold or silver pen, on smooth stone or large shiny leaf.
Try to avoid very large floral decorations on the tables as this makes conversation difficult. There are many things you can do to decorate the tables, candles, small posies, rocks and stones or whatever your fancy or theme takes you.
A popular idea at an Italian wedding reception, is to place small gifts of five sugared almonds on the table although it could be a mini box of chocolates, small cakes, perfumed candles or whatever.
