I hate receiving lines. They force the guests to make small talk with people they don't know while waiting to get a few moments with the bride and groom. And it should only be a few moments, else everybody else is stuck either looking around aimlessly or trying to make conversation with the 14-year-old sullen junior bridesmaid who didn't want to be in the wedding party but was merely a pawn in a power struggle between the mother of the groom and the bride.
This is why receiving lines shouldn't consist of every person in the wedding party, but alas, the practice continues, even at weddings thrown by urban sophisticates.
