Cocktail Hour - Are you attending??
My FI and I don't really want to attend our cocktail hour. I guess that we are pretty tradional in this aspect. To me, I don't feel right mingling with people prior to being formally introduced.
(Apparently this and not wanting to see each other before the ceremony make us "old school").
Who is attending/not attending their cocktail hour???

Re: Cocktail Hour - Are you attending??
we will be attending-- I look at CH as a time to mingle with everyone so we can actually enjoy the reception along with our guests.. and not feel obligated to make trips to every table.

Re: Cocktail Hour - Are you attending??

Re: Cocktail Hour - Are you attending??
I wouldn't miss it for the world. The night is going to fly and I want to be able to speak with everyone. Not to mention I want to eat some/all of the amazing food we picked out!!

Re: Cocktail Hour - Are you attending??
We're definitely attending! We're taking pics ahead of time - seperately - I don't want us to see each other until the ceremony too. We'll be taking our "together" pics during cocktail hour - our CH is 1 1/2 hours, so we would be sure to enjoy some of it!!!

Re: Cocktail Hour - Are you attending??
We wouldn't miss it for the world! It's one of the main reasons we decided to take pictures before the wedding. We thought about it and decided we only get this one day, and we don't want to miss the party and spending the time with family and friends, especially those from out of town.

Re: Cocktail Hour - Are you attending??
we're taking pictures before the ceremony, going to the cocktail hour and are not getting introduced into the reception....pretty "new school" I guess. To each their own - do what makes you comfortable.

same here.
I also want to be formally announced too. I like the idea of having it separate from the other guests....just so we have time with each other and with our bridal party.
