The order of the wedding reception activities might vary slightly from couple to couple, but here is what generally happens.
This timeline is based on a four-hour wedding reception block:
7:30 p.m. - Beginning of the reception
Announcement of parents, wedding party
Announcement of couple
First dance of wedding couple (some couples wait to do this after dinner)
7:45 p.m. - Dinner served
8:15 p.m. - Toasts made
8:30 p.m. - Father/Bride, Mother/Groom dance
8:45 p.m. - All other guests join in dancing
9:00 p.m. - Cutting of the cake/photos taken
Mingling/Dancing
9:30 p.m. - Bouquet Toss
9:45 p.m. - Garter Toss
10:00 p.m. - Mingling/Dancing and enjoying the rest of reception
11:30 p.m. - Reception ends
