Wedding Reception Entertainment

Every bride and groom wants to show their wedding guests a great time at their reception. While music and dancing have always been a part of most weddings, these days couples often want to go the extra mile and give guests that "wow" factor. These are some trends and ideas about wedding reception entertainment.
Music is still the most popular form of entertainment at a wedding reception. The right band or d.j. can really help get a great party going, while choosing the wrong music can result in an empty dance floor and bored guests. A popular trend is to have a late night d.j. spinning the latest hits. The reception might start with a wedding band who can play a wide variety of crowd pleasing songs to appeal to a multi-generational crowd. Then later in the evening, the reception slips into after-party mode. The bride puts on a short beaded dress with her crystal wedding jewelry, the d.j. starts playing, and late night treats like donuts or pizza are served.

Some of us may have been recipients of a terrible, long and embarrassing wedding toast that we would certainty never want at our own wedding. Although it can be tricky there are tips and tricks known to write and prepare for these speeches.

The Best Man's Wedding Speech

The Best Man's speech is yet another classic wedding moment that has found its way into countless romantic comedies, books and sketch shows. An speech that is so bad and awkward that it is funny is a good recipe for a sketch, but not the best recipe for a happy day or a life-long friendship.
So what is the worst thing that a Best Man can say in his speech? The classic scenario is the disclosure of certain facts about the grooms past, which are a complete surprise to the guests, and indeed the bride. The Best Man, being the grooms best friend, has had access and been privy to all sorts of interesting bits of gossip, or even scandal. The worst thing a Best Man can do would be to actually capitalize on this sort of information. By all means make things up, and make sure the audience knows that they are made up.
