Having a Cocktail Style Event

| , , , | No Comments on Having a Cocktail Style Event

Here at the Lesner Inn, we love the flow of a cocktail style evening. Everyone is on their feet and has the capability to have a conversation with more than the 10 people who would have been assigned to their table. However, what many people don’t take into account when having a cocktail style event is how their main meal would play out.

Obviously, seating will not be provided for all of your guests. Cocktail style provides a simple and elegant feel to the evening, and allows for your guests to move freely around the room. This is accomplished by having fewer chairs and bulky tables and more cocktail tables and open space. While this style may not be for everyone, it is ideal for larger parties of 200 or more. There is no stress of ensuring all 200+ of your guests are happy with their meal and leaves more room for your guests to be picky with what they’re eating. At the Lesner Inn, we have the perfect meal packages to accommodate a cocktail style evening.

However, if you’re set on having a standard meal rather than heavy hors d’oeuvres, we offer meals that are easy to eat while enjoying conversation as well. Ask one of our event managers how we can make this happen for you! We are more than happy to help you create the right menu for your event!
