Often at the Florentine we are asked, what is a good timeline for our reception. While there are many different ways to arrange your reception, here are a few guidelines to get you started.

• First hour:
  Guests arrive while you are taking pictures. Guests are able to find their seats, grab refreshments, and catch up with other guests. The bridal party will arrive and be announced.
• Second hour:
  Time to eat up! Our wonderful catering staff assists in making sure your guests are able to eat in a timely manner. Enjoy your wonderful food and drink.
• Third hour:
  Dinner is wrapping up and toasts may or may not be made. The bride and groom traditionally have their first dance as well as any other specialty dances. Let the party begin.
• Fourth hour:
  Cake can be during this time. Towards the end garter and bouquet toss can be completed.
• Fifth hour:
  Dance and enjoy with your guests!
