When somebody goes onto the stage of wedding party and says,'it's been a great night.', does it mean the party is about to be over? I mean when do we usually say such a sentence? At the end of the party or we could say anytime?

Anonymous I t's been a great night. = It has been a great night. (present perfect tense) The present perfect tense implies 'so far', 'until now', so it can be said at any time during the party, including at the end of the party.
