Mingle with reception guests in order of their age

Every once in awhile we get some super duper simple advice from our couples that make us totally smack our heads. This is one of those nuggets of wisdom. If you want to make sure to get a little time with all of your guests at the reception, mingle in order of age! Target those who are likely to leave earlier (older relatives, parents with young children, or guests with long drives home) and make them your first priority. All your hard-partying younger pals will likely be around for late-night shenanigans anyway. Here was how Mandy put it:

Mingle in order of age. My one and only regret is that I didn't get to visit with some relatives at the reception, because I was mingling in order of table placement, and they left early. My younger friends stayed until the end so I got plenty of time to visit them later.

Mandy and Eric had more wisdom to impart at their silly and geeky dance party wedding. Check it out!
