Wedding Reception Planner

Please fill this out as completely as you can, phonetic spelling is welcome for tricky names. If you're having a separate ceremony with Ed, he'll send you the Ceremony Planner too. Nothing here is set in stone; you can always follow up with changes.

Everything you enter goes straight to Ed. Save the page or take a screenshot if you'd like a copy for your records.

Got it, thank you!

Ed has received your reception details and will follow up if he has any questions.

Bride & Groom Contact Information

In case Ed needs to reach either of you directly for clarification.

Is Ed also providing your ceremony sound?

If yes, Ed will also send you the separate Ceremony Planner.

Venue & Vendor Information

Contacts for the other people Ed may need to coordinate with on the day.

Where does your event take place?
Is the cocktail hour in the same room as the main reception?

Bridal Party & Introductions

List names as you'd like them announced and pronounced, with any earned titles (like Doctor). Fill this out even if you're skipping formal introductions, it helps Ed know who's who.

Will there be a formal "welcoming" by the host (usually the bride's parents)?

Reception Details

Which of these will be part of your reception? (check all that apply)
Will Ed perform MC duties (announcements, etc.)?
Would a meal be provided for the DJ?

Wedding Traditions

Songs and the special moments built around them.

Is your first dance private (just the two of you for the whole song)?
Cake cutting?
Bouquet toss?
Present the bouquet via an anniversary dance instead?
Are the two of you departing early?
Are you giving centerpieces away?

Music Style & Play List

This list stays private, Ed runs interference so guests don't pressure you about it during the reception.

May Ed take song suggestions from guests? (subject to your do-not-play list above)
