Tips for Planning Your Wedding Rehearsal | Sound Wave Events | Boise Wedding DJ

Preparing for your wedding rehearsal but not quite sure where to start?  We can help!  There are a couple of key things to go through at your rehearsal:

1. Walk the venue and review your layout, set up instructions, etc. Make any needed changes and notify applicable parties.

2. Run through the ceremony with your officiant and wedding party. The main goal of the rehearsal is to help your wedding party and family feel confident walking down the aisle. When they leave, they should know:
  • Who they are walking with 
  • How to pace themselves walking down the aisle (not too slow, not too fast)
  • Where they should stand at the front of the ceremony (the LAST couple on your list should walk FIRST and stand at the far end of the ceremony)
  • What they should do with their hands/bouquets. Ideally all the Bridesmaids do the same thing and all the Groomsmen do the same thing. This helps with photos :) :)
  • How to exit the ceremony. Should they dance out, walk out calmly?
  • It is fun to practice this to your chosen songs but PLEASE do not try to have you or your wedding party walk to certain parts of the songs they are walking to. This is incredibly difficult to match the day of the wedding (unless we have pre-cut songs for you) because things will happen a little bit differently when the ceremony is actually happening. People will walk faster or slower than expected, flower girls will sit down in the middle of the aisle, etc. Plan for the unexpected and have this part of your wedding be flexible. You will thank us later :) 

3. Run through the full ceremony with your Officiant so you are comfortable and confident with how the process will go the day of your wedding.

4. Lastly, who should attend the rehearsal?
  • You, your fiance, your escort who will be walking you down the aisle, wedding party, wedding coordinator (if you have one), your officiant, and anyone else doing something special during the ceremony (like a reading). This will help everyone be clear on things for the day of.
  • If you have a Sound Wave DJ, he will not need to attend the rehearsal. He and his assistant will help your wedding party know when to walk down the aisle and cue the music the day of and things will go fabulously! 

Hope this helps as you plan your rehearsal! Let us know if we can assist in any other way!
