I have moved on to the receiving line debate. Instead of telling you the story I’m giving you the pro and con list! (yes, another list!)
Receiving Line Pros:
- You get to greet and hug every guest at least once
- You are not obligated to seek out guests to make sure you have spoken to everyone
- Yeah….that’s all I got….
Receiving Line Cons:
- You have to greet and hug every guest at least once
- I hate excess hugging!!
- It takes and average of 20 seconds per person. 20 seconds times over 200 people. That’s over and hour folks – Do you want to stand in line that long?
- In that time we could be sitting, eating, dancing just about anything other than standing in a line!

So I take it the receiving line is a no? Having a "hug bouncer" there to make sure the hugs and congrats don't last too long would be kinda fun though...
ReplyDeleteThe receiving line isn't a big deal if you are at the front of the line, but the people seated in the back of the church are stuck For-Ev-Er! I totally get wanting to greet everyone, and we are all used to it if you decide to go that way ;)
