Abound With Sounds' Online Wedding Form

You should be using this form ONLY if you are already a client of ours. If you are inquiring and you need information from us, please go to our Request For Services/Price Quote Form Clients: Please fill out all of the information as it applies to your wedding reception. Please note: This information is for "Abound With Sounds" purposes, and will NOT be shared with anyone. The following is a typical reception format order, with estimated lapse of time based on a 4 hour reception. Any cocktail periods or ceremony at the reception venue would simply be included prior to "Introductions". You also may want to have more time for "dancing for all" than what I listed below. For instance, if there is no ceremony or cocktail period planned, and you have 5 hours already booked with me, you may want to plan more dance time. The format is in the order that I have found over 20+ years seems to "flow" or transition best. Some things you may eliminate, or change in order. You may do this by answering "no" to "format OK? below and typing in any changes. I want to stress, though, that I am very flexible and the ultimate decision you make is what will be done. I place this information here only for those who contact me and ask, "Rick, we have no clue what to do or when--can you help?" If you already "have a clue", that's what will be done.
