Hi guys! We are having a destination micro wedding in November with about 32 people and I needed advice on how long our reception should be. We will be having appetizers, a main course, and dessert. We will also have yard games and dancing. How many hours should we plan the reception for? Thanks in advance!

    Honestly I would say about 3ish hours since it's not a huge group of people. Do you still plan on doing the standard wedding traditions? (first dance, bouquet toss, etc?)

    I think 3-4 hours sounds perfect!! You'll need an hour (or an hour and half) for dinner, then you'll have a few hours for mingling & dancing! 💃

    Thanks for all your replies! I wasn't sure if 3-4 hours was too much. We plan on doing some traditions like first dance but just planned on eating, dancing, playing yard games, and just enjoying each others company.
