Bride and Groom want to leave reception early?
July 26, 2010
I’m planning a wedding and it is expected that we throw a dance for our guests. I know it used to be custom for the bride and groom to leave after all the ceremonial stuff has been done (Dinner, speeches, first dance, father daughter dance, cake cut, garter/bouquet toss etc) and the guests would stay and enjoy the party.
I want to stay and get to say hi to everyone but I don’t like parties, I have no interest in drinking and dancing and neither does my fiancé, I’d much rather leave and spend time alone with my new husband.
How do I go about leaving, I don’t want to just disappear, I’d like to say goodbye to our guests and have them see us off?
We are planning to stay for a few hours, nothing rushed, we just don’t want to stay till the early hours of the morning and be too tired to enjoy the evening when we’re alone. We’ve hired a wedding planner so I’m hoping we won’t be too tired to enjoy the wedding night, but even if we’re too tired I’d rather have that time alone with him.
We are a Christian couple and this will be the first time we’ve "been together" fully so I don’t really want to waste time at a party we’re not that interested in and then be too tired when its over.
We want the guests to feel free to stay as long as they want after we leave and we plan on making this clear.
Neither of us enjoy dancing but our friends do, Our parents are paying for the party and they understand us leaving early but are insisting that we throw the dance.
We’re thinking we’ll leave around 9 right after I throw the bouquet.
Our schedule right now looks like this
4-5pm -Ceremony
5-6pm- Mingle and Cocktail hour while we get pictures done
6pm – Dinner is served with speeches between courses
7:30ish Cut cake
8 Father Daughter Dance which is interrupted by hubby for first dance
8:15-9 Mingle and start of dance
9 Throw bouquet and Garter and have everyone give us a send off
10-2 Guests are welcome to stay and dance.
We’re having a brunch the next day for a more intimate time with many of the guests.
We’ve hired a cleaning service and people to take down the decorations so that’s not a problem
We’re staying at an inn nearby and will be telling reception that we don’t want any calls or visitors put though, we move into our house after the honeymoon
Since this is going to be your honeymoon night, no matter where it is spent, do like some couples that have a plane to catch, etc. and this used to be done a lots before people just wanted to party. Change clothes into a nice suit or dress with a going away corsage which you can have incorporated into your bouquet if you want and take it out before you toss it, have hubby wear a suit and tell them it is a surprise, he hasn’t told you where you are going. Don’t let him tell you, book a room at a nice hotel in town or the next town and no one will know any different. Problem solved, the honeymoon couple is on their way and guests can enjoy! Would do this anyway, don’t know where you were planning to spend the night anyway as you say you are having a brunch the next day. You need a secret destination anyway, because it has been known to happen if you stay at home, you get prank phone calls, serenades, who knows when over zealous friends have had a little too much to dring. Go away and don’t tell, I know.

My boyfriend needs help with a son of the bride speech..?
July 23, 2010
He has to write a son of hte bride speech, except he has to give his mother away, normaly this is the father but sadly he passed away. Are there any sites or anybody who could help with some guidelines to this, as it is a difficult task! thank you, any questions will be answered to help if need be.
It’s best to speak from the heart so as not to sound like a robot. Tell him to be sincere and to say how much he loves his mom and what joy it brings to him to see her so happy. He can also say he thinks fondly of the groom and add something to make people chuckle like "but how can you not want to marry such a terrific lady". Nothing touches people’s hearts like the love of a child to his mother…especially a son. I think this is pretty much what people would expect a loving son to say. The speech doesn’t have to be long…after all people came to party and celebrate. It is not how long the speech is, it’s the quality of the words that are spoken

Help…Need a speech?
July 20, 2010
i have been ask to help with a father of the bride speech he is very nervous not used to public speaking, but i would like to help to make a short speech which will include all the relevant stuff to say, thanks, i don’t know where to start
To be a hit it should combine, humor, ancedotes and a touch of seriousness. A dad telling a brief story only him and the bride would know and would probably shed some tears. Adding a touch of genuine humor is always good to keep it light but make sure it includes something to the effect of "now that Jane has found Joe I know my little girl is happy and I couldn’t ask for a better guy.." or something that expresses gratitute
This site could help

Dancing with daughter. My daughter is getting married in July next?
July 18, 2010
year and apart from giving her aaway and of course making a father of the bride speech she has asked me to have a dance with her. Any suggestions for a song to dance to?
Definitely the following song by "Heartland". You really have to listen to it while reading the words, it is truly perfect.
I Loved Her First
Look at the two of you dancing that way
Lost in the moment and each other’s face
So much in love you’re alone in this place
Like there’s nobody else in the world
I was enough for her not long ago
I was her number one she told me so
And she still means the world to me just so you know
So be careful when you hold my girl
Time changes everything life must go on
And I’m not gonna stand in your way
I loved her first
I held her first
And a place in my heart
Will always be hers
From the first breath she breathed
When she first smiled at me
I knew the love of a father runs deep
And I prayed that she’d find you someday
But it’s still hard to give her away
I loved her first
How could that beautiful woman with you
Be the same freckle faced kid that I knew
The one that I read all those fairy tales to
And tucked into bed all those nights
And I knew the first time I saw her with you
It was only a matter of time
I loved her first
I held her first
And a place in my heart
Will always be hers
From the first breath she breathed
When she first smiled at me
I knew the love of a father runs deep
And I prayed that she’d find you someday
But it’s still hard to give her away
I loved her first
From the first breath she breathed
When she first smiled at me
I knew the love of a father runs deep
Someday you might know what I’m going through
When a miracle smiles up at you
I loved her first
