For anyone planning on getting married, it’s literally a dream and expectation to have a perfect or near-perfect ceremony, be it big or small.

From the planning process to the actual D-Day, so much detail and effort are put in to ensure it has that fairytale beginning and end.

Wedding receptions – a usual ritual in the ceremony – are one of the highlights of the occasion, besides the exchange of vows and the “you may now kiss the bride” moment.

A moment of loosening up and having some much-needed fun with family and friends, everyone most definitely looks forward to it.

I mean, who wouldn’t when there’s going to be great food, varieties of drinks and great music?

At a typical wedding reception, the newlyweds are welcomed to the venue with an entrance song usually chosen by them.

As this has become a big deal, especially in African ceremonies, the groom and his groomsmen, as well as, the bride and her team leave no stone unturned to ensure they kick off the festivities and merrymaking with a bang. Some even go as far a learning a formation dance just to enter the venue in style!
