Re: WR - Did you attend your cocktail hour?

Missed the whole thing, I heard it was great. Our guests are still talking about it almost 4 years later. Our photographer promised us we would see it too, and we did not. We did get to peak our heads in for all of 2 seconds.Chat Icon

Re: WR - Did you attend your cocktail hour?

ABSO-FREAKING-LUTELY!!!!!

Not only is it the best food - people spend, on average, so much for that one day that - in my mind - I want to be present for as much as I can of it! I wanted to truly enjoy it all, take it all in, see it all, etc.

BTW - I ate like a PIG on my wedding day lol - I made sure that I tried EVERYTHING! Chat Icon

No. It was an morning ceremony/afternoon reception so that's when the family portraits were.

Yup. I think we missed like 15 minutes taking some pictures with DH's mom (she didn't come over with us early with us, so we took her pics after the ceremony)

I was so happy we went. It was so fun!

Re: WR - Did you attend your cocktail hour?

we were at ours. We had so much time in between the ceremony and the reception that we were able to get most of our pics out of the way. We paid for the wedding ourselves and we wanted to enjoy every minute of it!!!

I attended my cocktail hour for about a half hour and am happy I did. I got to see a lot of people and did not have to go table to table.

Re: WR - Did you attend your cocktail hour?

We took our pictures prior to the cocktail hour so our BP could attend. We took a couple of family pictures and the DH & I went to the cocktail hour for 15-20 minutes.

We attended the last half hour. I was so happy we did- I got to mingle with everyone and say hello so that I didn't have to do it during the wedding. We had a great time.



That is exactly what we did. We had to finish up some of our pics the first half that didn't get done before the ceremony.

We did. We wanted to enjoy everything, and spent a lot of the cocktail hour greeting everyone so that we could just have fun at the reception instead of making the rounds then.



That was us too...
I didn't want to be away from everyone...the cocktail hour gave us time to say hello to everyone and instead of going around to the tables during the reception, we were on the dance floor having fun!

Re: WR - Did you attend your cocktail hour?

we wanted to...but we didnt make it - our BP was able to; we took family pics at that time. it POURED our wedding day, so it took longer than expected to get to the RH. Chat Icon
