We aren't having a DJ for our reception, we are going the DIY playlist route, but I was wondering how we handle announcements (bridal party introductions, cake cutting, etc.) when we do this? Do we have to forgo these things?
Also, I never paid attention to these things when I wasn't engaged, but is music playing all of the time during the reception? Cake cutting, meal time, everything? I've honestly never even noticed at weddings I've been to!
Thanks!
