         so that we can do the Speeches at 6:15pm Well Before the Restaurant
         Guests arrive.
         Since the food, a Full Carvery/Smorgasbord ,begins at 7:30pm - it is
         necessary to provide light savouries at no extra cost; it is not wise
         to have guests drinking alcohol for 2 hours on an empty stomach.

         a Floorshow most nights .
         The Band time is 8pm to Midnight and the Floorshow is
         normally about 40minutes starting around 9:30pm.
        The Dance floor is full for the night providing a warm party
         atmosphere for the small wedding party.
        The Floorshow Artist normally dedicates an appropriate song to the
        Bride and Groom.
        The Dancing can be formally begun with The Bridal Waltz
at about 8:30pm and when the band finishes at midnight
Clap-Along Music is used for the Circle allowing the Bride and
         Groom the chance to see everyone before they leave- they also
        have a chance to throw the Bouquet and Garter if they wish.
