after wedding ceremony

I haven't been to many weddings, so I'm wondering do ppl usually provide lunch or snacks after the ceremony if the ceremony ends around noon?

for my wedding, yes, but it's only for the brothers, sisters, and the bride and groom's family.

Many of my friends had their wedding in Minoru Chapel. There is no "place" for food there...
I had my wedding in golf club then I "have to" provide food (part of the package).
I think it depends on the wedding venue.

It depends, for church weddings I have been to, they do provide finger foods. For venues like QE and minoru, no cuz the timeslot is very short and there's no place for catering. For venues like golf course or brock house, the reception usually follows almost right away after the ceremony.

My friend did cake cutting after her ceremony and served the wedding cake there. She didn't want cake at the end of her Chinese banquet as dessert. This way ppl can actually eat the cake and not waste it.

usually they will provide food, either at where they have the ceremony or at restaurant, depends on their budget or the time

icic, thanks everyone! that's nice to know,I think I'm not going to provide lunch then. We'll save a lot for sure.

Depends on the ceremony location, time booked, schedule for the day, and your budget la.

yeah depending how you are doing your ceremony.. for myself, we are not going through the church. this means we are only doing the tea ceremony.. then probably provide food for bridesmaids, groomsmen etc those who were with me during the tea ceremony.. then photos in the afternoon etc

ya, I wanna keep my budget as low as possible.  I've asked Mayfair lakes, Hart House..etc, the cocktail food minimum charge would be $4000 on top of the ceremony rate.
