Question

What is a New Orleans Reception?

New Orleans receptions are typically not seated dinners, but consist of heavy passed items at the start of the reception, open action stations and buffets, with emphasis on lots of food options, lots of beverages, and a highly dynamic and social atmosphere that allows guests to move freely about the reception space. We promise to make every attempt to accommodate our vegetarian, pescatarian, and carnivore friends!
