Your opinion is duly noted.
I should add we are not doing a stagnant sit-down dinner. Cocktail hour will end with guests being led into main dining hall, with a plated appetizer..but food will be in a Grand Reception style, where people go to food stations in another room (glorified fancy buffet style). Band and dancefloor are where everyone can see them, but not where people will be walking to food.
Band will be playing more danceable tunes, they'll be a good 45min with smoking a stogy with the groom (with cigars furnished courtesy of Cigar Aficionado).
Ultimately, we feel with the savvy band, some good music choices to get people moving, and also having a DJ when they are on break...will amply fill time so that it doesn't get boring.

There are four kinds of people in this world: cretins, fools, morons, and lunatics.
