Alternative Bridal Party Intro

Colleen, on July 29, 2021 at 2:11 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 4

Any thoughts on ways to introduce the bridal party without the walk in and do something cheesy aspect? Maybe just walk in and wave? One idea we were thinking of was having them walk in and form a "tunnel" for my fiance and I to walk through - but they still have to be introduced. I want our party to be recognized by name because they are our best friends and deserve it! Just don't love the standard walk in... thoughts??

    Skip it? There is no etiquette saying they must be announced. Many weddings don’t have that done at all. Especially when the ceremony and reception are at the same venue. Walk in and wave sounds the least... cheesy? Make sure you are on the same page with the dj.

    Our group is skipping it entirely. Everyone is introverted to some degree and we will be announced at the of the ceremony so it is redundant. The intros that we have seen are so uncomfortable that it was one of the first things we agreed to veto.

    We're skipping it completely because the people we know are mostly introverted. They'll get to go back to cocktail hour and hang out with their SOs and then be able to go get seated with everyone else.

    At most weddings I've been to, people just run/walk in excited. I don't really think I've seen any cheesy thing. Honestly, in the weddings I've been in, there was nothing planned in advance if what to do at the walk in. We all just did what felt right when we were announced. Everyone is super excited and high energy because of their excitement for the couple, so that usually translates to whatever they do when walking out.
