Are you wondering what type of wedding reception style is right for you? Let's break it down!!
With many different options, it’s important to make your decision based on personal preference, budget considerations, and the overall vibe and flow of your wedding.
1️⃣ A formal seated dinner: This is the most traditional reception dinner style. All guests are seated and served a formal meal that consists of a few courses. Typically, your guests are all served the same appetizer and then oftentimes are given a choice for the entreé.
2️⃣ Family Style: This is a more casual option, but still has all of your guests seated. Big platters and bowls of food are passed around the table for each person to take what they would like.
3️⃣ Cocktail Style: This option doesn’t call for a seating chart or even a seat for all your guests! This gives your guests a chance to eat when they please and mix and mingle around. An assortment of passed apps and food stations placed around the reception space offer a variety of options to your guests.
👉🏾PRO TIP: Have a few tables with reserved signs for older guests or family that you want to make sure have a seat all night long!
No matter what style of reception you choose, just make sure the menu reflects the two of you as a couple and you can’t go wrong!
One of these is the most typical here in New Orleans - do you know which one it is?!
