You had to wait to eat AND drink before the bride and groom arrived to the venue.

You can drink before, but you always wait to eat

Good weddings have cocktail hour with appetizers

Why would you wait? The foods right there on the tables.

Food was not out on the table but I was denied by the bartender when i went to get a beer. She said she could not serve anyone until the bride and groom arrived.

Most wedding in New Orleans do not, the entire reception is cocktail hour with food.
When I moved up North I went to my first wedding with a cocktail hour then the sit down dinner, hated it. When we got married it was the New Orleans style reception and most people up here were a little confused that there was no assigned seating

Yeah, I was baffled because I never experienced that at other receptions.

Never with the drinks but the food yes. I did go to one last year where they didn't serve food until the end of the reception. Bride and groom had already danced, same with father of the bride, mother of the groom etc. and the best man and bridesmaid speeches had been delivered. It was infuriating.

Being from Va I always found this strange and I have always preferred the pre-wedding apps and drinks

Went to an Idian wedding once. After the ceremony we had to go stand outside while,they converted the venue for the reception. It was 95 degrees, no shade and no drinks offered. We stayed out there for 90 minutes before they let us back in the venue. There were some salty people at the reception.

I was in a wedding recently. I had to stand with the chick I was walking with while the bride and groom danced. I was pissed. I walked to the bar so quick after that song.

Yeah I went to one where the reception was in the same building as the wedding. They cleared us out in order to set up tables and food. We were all sent outside with no drinks until the pictures and room were complete. When we came back in they did the first dance and not a single drink was served yet. Terrible.

Never been to one where you can't drink until they arrive.

Usually hit the bar, head to the bathroom double fisting, and start railing gator tails to get the party fricking started
