Adding a Micro Reception
Imagine relaxing in the backyard with your guests following your wedding ceremony. Maybe you’re playing bocci ball or snacking on appetizers. With your Backyard Host’s approval, you may invite a catering company to serve a Micro Reception. Consider serving post-ceremony appetizers, a wedding cake with a champaign toast, a festive boxed meal or a splashy micro wedding feast. A trusted friend who serves as a Guest Coordinator orchestrates the reception details.
