"Is it rude to not have a receiving line at the end of the ceremony?" - @butterbunqueen via Twitter
Amber Harrison -- Wedding Papers Divas' resident etiquette expert -- is here to help us answer this week's question. Here's what she had to say:
Receiving lines are not required. And to be honest, the practice isn't as popular today as it once was. The idea is to ensure that the happy couple spends a moment with each guest, thanking them for coming to the wedding and making introductions as needed. This can be effectively achieved with a receiving line but can also be done during dinner, for example, with the couple making the rounds to spend time with their guests. However you manage it, make it a priority to get some face time with all the friends and family who have traveled near and far to support and celebrate you!
