  • SQUARE DANCE LOVERS the Following Responses
    SQUARE DANCE LOVERS The following responses were submitted for an article in the January 2012 Grand Square. Nancy (Caufield) and James Anderson Jefferson Township, NJ Current club: Reelers Former club: Lakeland Squares How did you start square dancing? Jim: Out in California. Nancy: I was given a pair of square dance shoes from my mother. Several years later when I was looking for something else in my life to do, I remembered those shoes and looked online for the nearest square dance club. Lakeland Squares was giving lessons and I signed up. Square dancing added the joy in my life that was missing. What year did you meet? Sept, 2007 And marry? May 29, 2011 We were married at the First Presbyterian Church of Berkshire Valley. We had pictures taken and a cocktail hour outside at our home. Luckily, it was a perfect day. Later, our two families had dinner at the New Orleans Restaurant. Circumstances of your meeting and dating? Nancy: Lakeland Squares was hosting its fall Barn Dance and I remember Jim walking in the front door. He was so-o-o tall and I remember saying to myself: “I like ‘tall!’” I walked up to him and asked if he would like to dance. He said “yes,” and the rest is history. Jim: Nancy was waiting to introduce herself to me while I was speaking to another member of Lakeland. There was definitely something intriguing about her. I remember thinking she must be an officer of the club. That feeling was confirmed when she seemed to “take me under her wing” for several dances.

On rare occasions the entire bridal party is introduced, but this tradition is becoming a thing of the past because of how much time it can take to round up and organize members of the bridal party. If you want to introduce more than just bride and groom, (see 3rd page), it is best to assign a person from your party to line everyone up to save precious time.

  • Wedding Reception Timeline | a Night You Won’T Forget
    WEDDING RECEPTION TIMELINE | A NIGHT YOU WON’T FORGET When it comes down to it, your wedding reception is one of the biggest parts of your wedding night. Having a set timeline to stick to will ensure that you and your guests get the best possible experience to make it a night you won’t forget! Here is a sample wedding reception timeline and some other helpful tips to get the party started. Guests Move from Ceremony into Cocktail Hour | 1 Hour While your guests are mingling with each other after the ceremony is a good time to do your couples session and formal family photos. Although the bride and groom typically won’t be able to attend the cocktail hour it’s still a nice time for your guests to relax and enjoy some hors d’oeuvres and drinks before they go into the main reception. Check out this Wedding Photography Timeline for suggestions on how much time should be allotted for the cocktail hour based on how many formal photos you want done. Guests Are Seated in Reception Hall | 15-20 Minutes Your wedding coordinator and/or DJ/MC will get all of your guests rounded up and seated in the reception hall so that they are ready for the party to start. If necessary, they will explain how guests can find their seat and will give any other special announcements during this time. The start of getting your guests into the reception and the estimation of how long this will take based on how many are in attendance is an essential part of your wedding reception timeline.
