This vs That: Reception Timelines Vs Chaos

Wedding Planning Decisions, This vs That with Kelly McWilliams

I would LOVE a text from you!

If you ever wanted to know how to royally screw up your wedding reception just ignore this episode. In this episode, we had to split into part 1 and part 2 because there was that much to cover. The only people who are typically at a reception from start to finish are the planner/coordinator, the banquet captain and the DJ. So who did I turn to for this episode? This vs That editor Lance Panton. Between Lance and I, we have probably a thousand weddings to spill the goods on. Lance is a premier DJ in Dallas, TX.
In this one you'll hear about:

• having a friend or family member coordinate your wedding.
• pre-wedding communication with your wedding team
• reception timeline from the introductions to the , 1st dance, toasts, cake cutting to the exit.
• The cake break songs (DJ vs Cake)
• When to schedule your fireworks (and how I synchronize music to the show) and how your reception is like a fireworks show.
