Magical Wedding
Reception
By Anthony Franco

2. • Wedding receptions, like the wedding ceremony
itself, are one of the best moments in one’s life.
Everyone wants to ensure that his or her wedding
reception is one to remember—magical even.
• But how can one assure that his or her wedding
reception turns out to be “magical”?

3. 1. Relive moments and
memories.
• You can relive moments such as how you met,
how you became friends, how the romance
started, and how the decision to finally tie the
knot came.
• Make sure that this will not bore the audience.
• Invite your families and friends to relive the
moments they know about. Let them retell it!

4. 2. Pay attention to the
needs of everyone.
• Remember that this is your hosted event.
• You are responsible to ensure the convenience of
the guests. Make sure that everyone is comfortable,
enjoying their food, seating plans, and other needs
during the event.

5. 3. Involve the guests.
• Be it you have a little program or a bit of
entertainment prepared, make sure that most of
your guests are part of it.
• You can request any of them to sing a song for you,
or you can simply devise little ways that will make
them feel that they are not there to watch, but
really become a part of one of your happiest
events in life.

6. 4. Be imaginative.
• Let your imagination drive you to make this moment
unforgettable.
• You can devise a themed reception if you like and
create different programs with segments to make it
more enjoyable.
• Your family and friends can help you with this as
well.
• Let your guests know in advance what the
reception will be like so they can prepare.
• Also, be sensitive to people’s principles and values
in life. Be imaginative, but be sensitive.

7. 5. Relax!
• You have to relax and look your best.
• It doesn’t mean that you don’t interact with the
guests; it simply means that you don’t do all the
hard work.
• You can hire an event organizer to put everything
together and simply give your personal touch. This is
your wedding reception to enjoy and not to be
stressed about.
