Over or Under: 4.5 Hour Reception?

Under. We are having a 3 hour reception.

Over 4.5 hours

Including cocktail it will total up to 5 hours so far, getting some pressure to extend so we might extend it to 6 hours.

We’re looming about 5ish but haven’t set official times yet

Ours wills be 5 hours including cocktail hour.

Under! We did the minimum amount of hours for our venue to save money, so our reception is 3 hours. That’s about how long it takes me to get too tired anyway!

4 hours we got a good DJ for four hours and photographer for 5 hours. I think we may do drinks after for family and bridal party but we will see.

6:30 to 11, so right at the 4.5 hour mark

4 hours

Under, only 4 hours.

We were right on the money!! We had a one hour cocktail hour and a four hour reception!

Ours was scheduled for four hours. 11am to 3pm, but the crowd ended up dispersing about 2:20pm to 2:30pm, which we were okay with because we had to have everything packed up and out of the venue by 3:30pm, DJ included!

Over! If cocktail hour is included we will have a 6 hour reception, if not then 5 hour with a 30 min ceremony before cocktail hour. So with everything included our wedding will be 6 1/2 hours long!

Hi Jess! That sounds great! Are you serving a special signature drink during your cocktail hour? Or any of you and your fiancé's favorite foods at your reception?

The more dancing, the better

Way under, we are just doing dinner. Then, outside movie night in park.

Over. As of right now our timeline is looking loosely like:

ceremony is 4:30-5
And recetion pretty much right after until 11
We arent really having a cocktail hour but the bar, popcorn bar, and recetion room will all open at 5 so guests can snack, grab a drink, and get seated when they get through the recieving line while waiting for the rest to finish.
Dinner will start at about 5:35ish

Couldn't agree more

View Quoted Comment Yes we are each having a signature drink that will be available for the whole night! And our favorite food as a couple is pasta so that is definitely an option at our buffet dinner! 376 days away! So excited! 💕🎉

We are having our wedding and reception at same place. We are also doing non-traditional with doing all of our photos before the wedding. So wedding is at 4 and going right into reception. We have our venue as long as we like. So we will probably be around 6hrs, more if people stay and party longer.
