Follow This Simple Run Down Sheet and You'll be Dancing All The Way...


Create your wedding reception itinerary from the sample wedding reception program below. You can use the customized wedding reception program samples to suit your own wedding. If you wish to change some of the order around a little, just change the elements as you see fit. The information below is merely a guide to help get you organised - it is not a set of rules.
