Basic reception timelines:  Receptions can run in any order and we can tweak the
schedule in any way you'd like.  However, here are some standard formats that work
well.  Each has its advantages.  Generally, it's best to lump several things together in
order to not disrupt the flow or the dancing too often.  Check one you like, or we can
decide later.
