If there is a spat of time between the ceremony and reception (for photos, or whatever), for the love of everything holy in this world, have something for the kids to do!
Whether it's crafts, snacks, or a jumpy playcastle—or a combination thereof—do not leave children with nothing to do for more than an hour.
