We are getting married in Las Vegas in Sept. Two weeks later, we plan on having a 4 hour informal cocktail reception with hors d'oeuvres in Chicago (where we live) on a Saturday. What time should the wedding reception start? 3:00 or 4:00?
thanks.

Normally any time that encompasses the dinner hour, your guests would expect a meal. I would start earlier at 3 so that the guests can leave for a 7 pm dinner after the reception. Nancy Tucker President of Weddings Beautiful US http://www.weddingsbeautiful.com
