Receptions generally consume the largest portion of the wedding budget. If you are looking to trim your reception expenses, be open to trying something a little different. Cocktail and dessert receptions offer a fun, yet cost effective, twist on the formal reception.
A cocktail reception allows guests to move about more freely enjoying each other and the entertainment even more. No need to worry about table arrangements either! A smaller venue can be used as well like your favorite restaurant's cocktail lounge, a beautiful home or an outdoor garden. You'll want to offer drinks, hand-passed appetizers or buffet, and your wedding cake!
You won't hear any complaints about a dessert reception! Tables of a variety of delicious treats will keep your guests happy. This type of reception also avoids the need for table arrangements and a large venue. Remember to hold a dessert reception in the late afternoon or early evening, and be sure you make it clear on the invitation that a full meal will not be served.
Two unique reception options for couples wanting to offer a fabulous experience to their guests!
