  • My sister's wedding just had snacks and cake.
  • Etiquitte-wise, it is acceptable if the wedding starts later in the evening (past 8:00) and it is expected of the hosts of the reception to inform the guests (normally on the invitations) that there will be "Dessert and coffee to follow" or something to that effect. Over 50% of the cost of the average wedding goes to food for the guests - much of which ends up uneaten due to no-shows, or due to "surprise guests" falls short of what is needed. A dessert reception is MUCH less stress on those funding and planning the wedding.
