WEDDING RECEPTION TIMELINE SAMPLE /
WEDDING RECEPTION PLANNING GUIDE

DJ TIMELINE

Adam Blue Productions is the official DJ company of The Kansas City Chiefs, The Kansas City Zoo, and over 100 Kansas City wedding venues. Please see our REFERENCES and congratulations on your engagement!

Remember - this is just a sample - your times and activities may vary!

6:30pm - Guests Arrive - Background Music - Cocktails

7:00pm - Bride and Groom arrive and are announced to the guests (pick out a fun song for your entrance!)

7:15pm - Cake Cutting Ceremony (go straight over to the cake after you are announced and walk in while you have everyone's attention - this will give the caterers time to cut the cake and have it ready to serve later)

7:30pm - Dinner (sometimes a minister will say a blessing here) [SIDE NOTE] - An "Eat and Mingle" buffet style dinner is preferred over a "sit down" dinner because a sit down dinner tends to slow your party down and can make your guests "sluggish".

8:15pm - Toasts (Best Man, Maid of Honor, Parents, etc.)

8:30pm - Bride and Grooom First Dance

8:35pm - Father of the Bride and Bride Dance - (optional)

8:40pm - Mother of the Groom and Groom Dance - (optional)

8:45pm - Entire Bridal Party Dance - (a song just for the bridal party can help "warm up" the dancefloor)

8:50pm - Upbeat Dance Music Starts Immediately following the last of the "dances".  A good trick is to have the entire Bridal Party on the dance floor when the fast music starts (see above where we played a special song just for the bridal party) this way there's already people on the dance floor having a good time and it will be more comfortable for your other guests to join in - no one wants to be the first one on the dance floor!)

9:45pm - Bouquet Toss / Garter Toss (optional)

10:15pm - The Party Continues until LAST CALL / CLOSE
