FAQs

Question

What is a cocktail style reception?

Answer

While there are chairs and tables, there aren't chairs and tables for everyone and there is no formal sit-down dinner. When you are ready to eat, eat! When you're done, your table becomes free for when other people decide they want to use it.

Question

Are there any cultural traditions I should know about?

Answer

In Louisiana, a wedding typically includes the money dance. Traditionally, guests will pin money on the bride’s veil and the groom's suit to dance with them. This dance is COMPLETELY OPTIONAL, and you can give any amount. The money dance is often referred to as "lagniappe", which translates to "a little something extra". The dance is a great addition to a reception to have a couple of minutes to engage with your guests one on one!
