Make the Grand Entrance a Grand Show!
Why don't you make the Grand Entrance into the Reception a tiny show!
Plan with the DJ/MC (me!) to play individual snippets of songs for every single couple being announced in from the beginning of the reception - make the songs funny, or keep these things suggest a funny thing in regards to the couple (for example - the Sopranos theme or Godfather for a Really Italian father!). All the guests can get the joke and recognize that this is a fun wedding.
Also, you could have your Bridal Couples dance (Vogue) in for their songs. OR, if they're Sports Nuts, have each couple act out a Sport Scene (w88club ทางเข้า the guy sends the lady out for a baseball pass, or he's the caddy and hands her an imaginary club!). Such things as this really get the crowd involved, and begin a great reception.
Or... Make an Italian Grand Entrance!
That is a simple one, but very efficient, because you always desire to involve ALL the guests in your reception activities. Needless to say you don't need to be Italian to do this, but it can't hurt!
Dean Martin is useful here. Introduce the Bride and the Groom in to the song "Ain't That the Start working the Head" ;.Once they've reached the center of the space, fade the music quickly. Then have the guests begin waving White Napkins while singing "That's Amore" (you can offer small lyric sheets on the tables).
Or...
Have a Fun Twist on Introducing the Bridal Party! - Everyone knows that the Grand Announcements start the Celebration. I, with my "Amazing Voice (lol)", really love this part of the show. However, wouldn't it be fun to have the Bride and Groom invite inside their most loved friends?
All DJs use wireless microphones, so this is easy. Have the Bride and Groom hide in the doorway (where the Bridal Party is lined up) throughout the Grand Entrance Announcements, with the DJ by their side.
"From out of Nowhere" the Bride reads only a little bio of a bridesmaid (or her parents), and passes the mic to the groom. He welcomes the groomsman who escorts the lady onto the dance floor. When the whole Bridal Party has been announced into the reception, the DJ appears and announces the Bride and Groom. Everyone rises, and you've a Grand Entrance Memory for all!
Or... Keep consitently the Bridal Party Guessing during Grand Entrance! - Have the Bridal Party stand in friends - all mixed, by the entranceway, waiting to be announced in. They have NOT been told what order they'll walk in. Then, have the DJ read a quick group of facts about the couple that's being announced in. No Names, just the important points! Make each fact less obvious initially, then get specific until that couple realizes it's them, and rushes to the dance floor!
I LOVE things like this - think of the guests driving home that night, speaing frankly about a great wedding memory!
