 What Is a Cocktail Wedding Reception?

 

Looking for a simple, cost effective wedding reception? If your answer is yes, then a cocktail reception might be the solution for you. 

A cocktail wedding reception can begin as early as 4pm, but no later than 6 pm.   Hors d’oeuvres are passed by tray, served buffet-style or some combination of both. Typically, the event wraps up around 7:30, when most guests begin to think about dinner.  

Traditional menus include a variety of delicious hot and cold appetizers, as well as fine cheeses, breads, fruits and cruditĂ©s.  

Couples may offer a traditional bar, with an assortment of hard liquor, mixers, wine, champagne and soft drinks. They may also serve a signature cocktail -- like a mint julep or cosmopolitan -- or choose a favourite drink like a martini or margarita, and give guests their choice of sweet or savoury variations. 

The cost of a cocktail wedding reception depends primarily on selection of liquors offered.
