Open House Reception

We are holding an open house reception after our destionation wedding. This will be a casual event where people will come and go as they please. We plan on having games ( Basketball, corn hole, disc golf, ect.)  I'm not assigning seats. We plan on having alcohol and food. But I am having trouble figuring out what kind of food. We have thought of doing bunches of finger food or buffet style bars( Taco bar, baked potato bar, salad bar).  Wondering what peoples thoughts are for this kind of casual event.

  • lol corn hole Sorry, I'm okay now. What about BBQ? Burgers and hot dogs!

  • It will be from late afternoon into the evening. Which is why we are thinking we don't just want to have finger foods. We have thought about having finger foods and desserts available the whole day and then at dinner time making a buffet available for the guests that are there.
     Lol nothing like playing corn hole in a wedding dress. 
  • I like the ideas you already have, but I would add some burgers, pulled pork, hot dogs, or chicken breasts. Something more substantial so people can make a meal of it.

    Sounds fun! 
  • We're doing something similar and are planning on having a hog roast, baked beans, potato salad, chips, etc at meal time, then snacks, finger foods and desserts for the duration.

    I am also looking forward to corn hole in a wedding dress. Should make for some good photos!
