It can be as formal or as casual as you would like. You’ll get a free and designated expert MC for all announcements. We will make your entire wedding much better, not just amazing music!
IS DANCING BETWEEN COURSES
THE RIGHT SCHEDULE FOR YOUR WEDDING?
“We used the Dancing Between Courses schedule which really jump started our wedding. We did all our dancing right away and even got our guest up and dancing right away. David made it super easy. Our wedding was so organized and so much fun!!”
-Ken + Angela W.
HOW IT WORKS:
Dinner starts as soon as guests enter the room. It lasts 1-1/2 – 2 hours and includes:
- Introductions of bridal party, bride + groom.
- Toasts
- Blessing over the meal
- Cake Cutting
- First Dance, Father/Daughter, Mother/Son Dances, Guests Dancing
(dancing between courses schedule only)
The purpose of dinner is to perform the standard wedding traditions as well as the serving of the meal itself. It’s the business of your wedding. Dinner starts as soon as the doors to the ballroom are opened and your guests enter, not when food us served.
BIGGEST FACTORS THAT HELP OR HURT YOUR DINNER SCHEDULE:
- Getting all the guests inside the room quickly and the bridal party lined up.
- The amount/length of toasts.
- The speed of the food service.
- Creating a clear schedule.
- Emcee’s ability to understand the overall schedule and work with all your vendors.
RECOMMENDED ENSEMBLES FOR DINNER MUSIC:
- Jazz Trio (Piano, Bass + Sax)
- Solo Piano
- 8 or 11 Piece Orchestra (Dancing Between Courses)
- All Ensembles Include MC, DJ and Full Sound System.
