I am seriously horrified by your post… you were expected to eat WITH YOUR HANDS!!! At a wedding reception!!! A jug of water so people could wash their hands… was soap even provided!!! I am horrified and also kinda disgusted by this. lol. I can’t believe there are people out there that think this is acceptable. I mean…you may eat with your hands at home with your own family… but dont think that is appropriate to do at a reception where guests are invited! 
Wow…
