Decided to hyphenate--how should DJ announce us at reception?!?

Hi Fellow Knotties,

Need some opinions here...  I'm about 98% sure I'm going to hyphenate my last name and my FI's last name as Mine-His once we're married.  I've read online that some other women who are doing this are having their DJ/band leader announce them at their reception by just their first names.  That's probably the easiest way to go, and I can live with it, but it doesn't feel quite right. 

But Mr. and Mrs. HisLastName isn't gonna happen, and Mrs. Me MyLastName-HisLastName and Mr. Him HisLastName is quite a mouthful and may cause more of a stir than I'd like amongst the many, MANY older guests who'll be there.  But then again, maybe they should start getting used to it from the get-go.

Any other hyphenating brides out there have some ideas/words of wisdom???

Thanks!
