Creating An Engaging Wedding Reception with Wes Nakano

Unveiling Paradise: Your Go-To Destination Wedding Podcast

FACT: The details of your wedding reception really can make or break your wedding. Do you have too many speeches? Are you trying too hard to play games that no one wants to play? Do you have grand ideas of smashing cake in your partner's face?? (HINT: DO NOT SMASH THE CAKE). In this episode, Wes Nakano, owner of From Above Entertainment, sits down with us as we break down each part of a reception and shares his thoughts on what works, and ways to make it even better.
Reception details covered in this episode:

• Grand entrance (what if they don’t want to do one)
• The Shoelywed Game (or any other game during a wedding)
• The garter toss (and what other fun options have you seen/done before)
• The bouquet toss (and what other fun options have you seen/done before)
• Smashing the wedding cake in someone’s face (HARD NO IN TESSA'S OPINION)
• The first dance (and what if they’re not dancers)
• Parent dances (and what if they don’t have parents in attendance)
• Toasts/speeches - any advice to keep the crowd attentively listening?
• Money dance - yay or nay?
• Last dance - yay or nay?
