These should be people you know so just think of it like a regular party. This is good practice for you wedding. When they enter say hi and make your rounds talking to everyone at some point.

View Quoted Comment Right. What's the best way to walk in ?

I honestly would not over think this. Just think of it as a party not like a formal event. Show up on time or maybe a few minutes late and just come in and then say hi to everyone. Just let things naturally happen. Good chance people will come up to you. Just relax and enjoy. I think if you think too much about it then you will trip up. When you get there just come in and socialize. Just think of it like a regular party.

View Quoted Comment Will you be arriving after everyone's already there? Or are you getting there first?
If you get there last, ask whoever's hosting to start the activities as soon as you get there so you don't have a lot of time to socialize right away. It'll get easier as the day goes on.
If you get there first, just say, "hi, how are you?" listen to their response, say one more thing (whatever comes to mind) and then say that you have to go talk to the next person who came in. If you don't feel obligated to keep the conversation going, it's easier to get out of it.

Take a deep breath.

Let it out slowly.

Repeat.

Ok, let down your shoulders.

These are your friends and your family. Treat it like any other time you would see a bunch of them, and when you get anxious, refer to the above - deep breath in, slow breath out.

I promise you, everyone there wants you to be happy.
