Another Fun Idea I Just Created a “HOME” Themed Cocktail Hour Playlist. Has some great songs in it including “Home” by Michael Buble, Philip Philips and also by Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros and many more.
Just did a wedding where the client had on their invitations “I promise to dance if you play…..” This is a fun way to get music request with your RSVPs
Another fun idea, we did a wedding in December, where each table was named after a song. When we played the song, that table was excused for dinner.

Bridal Processional Suggestion:
Brides and Grooms, the Photographer at your wedding should get shots of the reception area before the guest arrive to capture all the details, but if you can sneak in before for your own sneak peak and get a few photos of you in the room before the guest enter.
