I know this has been done before and most people will think I am nuts but I don't want to go to my cocktail hour. I have one of the biggest bridal suites and I really want to hang out w/ fh and relax and eat. I know if I go down I won't eat. And last I always pictured that huge suspenceful introduction into the ballroom and I feel like it would be better if I wasn't seen before hand. What do you all think?
i'm going to be floating around my coctail hr and if my dress permits, stuffing my face as i greet our guests, i won't miss a grand entrance though bc the ceremony is on site, and my big 'tadda' will be when i come down the aisle prior to it...
We'll be going to CH... that where the best food is!!! Also, we'll do our meet & greet at the CH, I do NOT want to do a receiving line.
my real grand entrance is me walking down the aisle, after the guests have already seen me then I really don't care if I make an entrance at my reception or not. I don't want to miss cocktail hour because a) I'll be one hungry biotch and b) I don't want to have to waste the 4 hours of my party going around greeting people

Im not going...I want to enjoy the time in the bridal suite with my bridal party.
THE CH food will be brought to us....we will have a mini-ch hour in the suite....
Finally, someone who feels like me, It makes me feel better to know that I am not the only one
I'm so happy to see that so many people are attending their cocktail hour. I voted undecided....I've heard from so many people that it's the best thing to do so you can say all of your hello's etc. then and at the reception enjoy yourself. I thought the majority would say they wanted their grand entrance....but now I feel better thinking about attending my cocktail hour. Plus we got the steel drummers and want to enjoy them also!

We plan on attending it. I want to get it out of the way so we have more time to actually enjoy the wedding.
we're going to spend the first 30 min eating and talking....then hit the cocktail hour to mingle with everyone

I def will be attending mine as well. I think the CH is the best part of the wedding, lololol, you get to meet and greet your guests so you wont have to do that whole thing later, besides, I put alot into the CH so I really want to enjoy it, with a bib on![]()

I'm going to CH. I went to a wedding where the bride and groom didnt go to their CH and spent their entire RH greeting everyone. They literally got to dance maybe 3 times, and didn't eat dinner.![]()
I want to enjoy it all!![]()

well i kind iof dont want to go cause my entrance will be the first time we are introduced as husband and wife but then again we were thinkin we are gonna be getting married at the rh so we just might go to half of it
I was planning on attending mine just for the fajita bar, but now that I'm reading everyones posts it IS a good idea to get that out of the way so you don't have to spend too much time table hopping later on.
