My daughter will be getting married on Oct. 12. The wedding will be held at the church and the reception will be in the social hall/tent outside. We are planning on having the buffet set up in the social hall with the seating under the tent. We are serving BBQ. We will be taking most of the pics before the wedding with just the B&G pics and a few family pics afterwards which shouldn't atke too long. I don't want the guests to go ahead and eat their meal before the bride and groom gets to the reception. How can we work it so that the guests are not just standing around waiting. I was thinking about serving some type of appetizers with punch (no alcohol at church) but should they just stand around in the social hall with their finger food or should they go ahead and sit down then get back up when its time for dinner with the bride and groom?
Any ideas on appetizers that would go with BBQ and not be too heavy that could possibly be eaten while standing and mingling with others?
