    I'd say after depending on what time it is. I'll be having dinner first then speeches, bouquet toss then dancing.

    We did ours just after dinner and the speeches, as a way of warming up the dance floor before we invited everyone to dance.

    We did ours after and it was a bit stressful. Dinner service was slow and we had to have our photographer stay on extra time to make sure we got our shots. Knowing now what I know, I would have done our dances first.

    We did dinner, speeches and then dances. We danced with our mums first and then it was our turn. Our wedding party joined about halfway through and then after that it was dancing time.

    After dinner! It will kick off the dance party! We picked an upbeat song and will have our wedding party start dancing with us about halfway through the song to encourage everyone to get up and dance Smiley smile

    We are doing our first dance right after dinner. I just like how it flows into the dancing for the evening.
