According to Wikipeda, in order to be a reception guests must be formally greeted by the wedding party. If you are worried about the etiquette of a reception, then there is a list of the correct order for people to stand in the receiving line on this site,

Today we tend to think of a wedding reception as a party held after the marriage ceremony. Although normally held in the evening, you can host your event as a lunch. In fact traditionally, marriages were always celebrated with a wedding breakfast - and these early morning celebrations are getting popular again. Holding your party in the morning instead of the evening can be a big cost-saver.

Many people choose venues that plan and organize the reception on their behalf - but if you are looking for some great planning ideas, I found some nice ones here.

Here are some other questions I have had:

  • When should I post wedding reception invitations?
    Try to mail them at least 3 weeks before the event, but preferably 6 weeks before.
  • Is it ok to only invite someone to the reception and not the ceremony?
    Yes of course! A larger party is a great way to include more people in your special day. If you want to be very clear in the invites then you can add extra wording on your invites that says"A private wedding will precede the reception".
  • Can I host the party a few weeks after the marriage ceremony?
    Sure. It really is up to you how you do things. I know of one couple who had a big party after their honeymoon - and another who had a pre-wedding reception.
