Will you be attending yours?
I am not... I want to make one grand entrance.
IMO I think it takes away from your entrance---

i agree with you
at first i wasn't going to attend my CH but i figure..we're spending so much money for all this food we might as well go, mingle, and enjoy everything we saved so hard to provide for our guests

Re: Stolen from BHB: Cocktail hour...
I loved attending my CH. It was great seeing everyone after the ceremony where my grand entrance happened . It was a chance to say hello to everyone, eat and mingle.
Wouldn't have missed it!
eta: we had some cocktail hr food in the bridal suite before but I wanted to be with everyone after.

Re: Stolen from BHB: Cocktail hour...
Originally I didn't want to attend the cocktail hour because I wanted the 'grand entrance' as well but after talking to a couple of past brides they said that they are so glad that they went to their cocktail hours because they got so many hello's out of the way.
I'm having about 300 ppl. at my wedding so I would rather say all the hellos during the cocktail hour opposed to when the band is playing and I want to dance.

Re: Stolen from BHB: Cocktail hour...
FH and I will be attending our CH. I don't want to miss anything that day. We paid enough money and it goes by way too fast.
I am getting all the major pic's out of the way before my Ceremony.
IMO I still believe that the entrance into the reception room will still be as fantastic, even though we are doing it this way.

Re: Stolen from BHB: Cocktail hour...
nope.. we made out CH 1 1/2 hours long so that the guests can enjoy it and so that we can have sometimes to enjoy our food and relax as well.
Then we will make our entrance..

Re: Stolen from BHB: Cocktail hour...
Our CH will be about 1 1/2 hours. We are getting married at the RH and they gave us an hour for the ceremony that will only really take 30 minutes. They are opening up the CH early. Right after we and the BP are going into the bridal suite. If the mood strikes us we will venture to the CH hour. We'll just play it by ear.
