If you are having a reception the Windemere Hotel & Conference Center team is here to help anticipate your event’s needs! We offer a wide varity of Hors d'oeuvre and appetizer to open your event. If there is an extended period between when guests arrive and when the meal is served these might also serve the purpose of sustaining guests during the wait, in the same way that Hors d'oeuvre may be served at the table, as a part of the sit-down meal; or they may be served before sitting at the table. Hors d'oeuvre prior to a meal are either stationary or passed. Stationary hors d'oeuvre are also referred to as "table hors d'oeuvre". Passed hors d'oeuvre are also referred to as "butler-style" or "butlered" hors d'oeuvre.
