If a Cocktail Hour is going to be an hour and a half, is it still called a Cocktail Hour?

Sounds like one of life's deep questions, like 'If a tree falls in a forest.......'

but do still call my cocktail hour a cocktail hour if it's from 4:30 to 6?

I'd still call it a cocktail hour. I've been to a few that have been longer than an hour.

Eh, just call it call CH, with Reception to follow. If anyone really notices 30 minutes difference, then they wouldn't be happy no matter what you give them.
