Growing up, when you got a spanking, was it like a big event or did you just get spanked right away?

Whe i got a spanking, I would get sent to my room and had to wait. My mom or dad would then come into the room and lecture/explain why I was getting spanked. Then I usually had to put my hands on my dresser and they would use a wooden spoon. It felt like a huge event/process.
