Buffet Cocktail Receptions are the least structured of the three options and are a wonderful way to entertain for those who desire a more “party” atmosphere. This style has become very popular in the last few years.

• The food display is ready and available to your guests upon arrival.

• This is a “stand-up” cocktail party with seating for approximately 2/3 of your guests throughout the entire venue.

• A few tables may be reserved for family members as requested.

 

For this style of event:

• There are no formal table settings
• There is no head table
• There is no cocktail hour
• There is no assigned seating
• There is no formal food blessing
