I've been to, and been in many southern weddings. And zero have had receptions in a church.

It must be a New Orleans thing, but we dispense with the sit-down dinner, and have a buffet and an open bar. We get right to the fun.

Another thing that I think is particular to New Orleans is the cake pull. The baker puts small silver charms on a ribbons between two layers of the cake. All the unmarried bridesmaids gather around the cake, choose a ribbon and pull. Each charm means a different thing - love, money, etc.
