Are most brides attending their cocktail hour? And if so, do you still get introduced for the reception?

Re: Atteding cocktail hour??
I don't want to miss any of my cocktail hour, but I am having second thoughts because I really want to go to the Planting Fields for pictures and we won't have time if we go to the CH. Maybe just FH and I will go for pictures and have a little time for ourselves and then go to the reception. If we have time maybe we could still go to part of the CH.

We will be attending the second half of the cocktail hour (we have some family portraits to take during the first half) and we are going to be introduced for the reception.

I had a wonderful time at our cocktail hour. It gave me some more time with some guests. Al feels like he missed a lot of if cause he was dealing with a seating issue with his mom.
We had a lot of time between the ceremony and reception though. So all our pictures were done. And we had private cocktail time with our BP before everything started.
We were annouced into the reception.

We definately plan on going to the cocktail hour. And I hadn't really thought about it much but, I'm pretty sure we'll still be introduced. We're having the ceremony & reception at the same place but doing pictures before everything because we really don't want to miss any of it!!

I'm going to my cocktail Hour. I feel if your going to spend the money for the wedding you should be at the whole thing. I'm also having all my pictures take before the cocktail hour, and just having the photographer take candids at the reception. I don't want to be pulled away from the party. We'll leave a couple minutes early so everyone can be seated and then we'll be introduced.

We attended our cocktail hour for a little while and were able to talk with our guests. I originally did not want to but I'm glad I changed my mind.

we're not going to attend-we will have some alone time in the Bridal Suite and then we'll be introduced. I don't care what my bridal party does-they can stay with us in there and eat or go out and mingle.

Re: Atteding ****tail hour??
I'm definitely going to go to the CHour .... but will probably leave about 5-10 min before it ends... and will still get introduced at the reception.
