According to the requirements of human feelings and etiquette, it is to be entertained. Although you spent money on the wedding, it was hard work. People at the wedding can skip the banquet, and the host family can order several meals separately for everyone to eat. In particular, cameramen and photographers have little time to eat, because they have to shoot all the time from the wedding and don't want to miss the camera. Others are better and can eat out.

But now most people at weddings are also very self-disciplined. Generally, they won't sit at the table and eat by themselves without the invitation of their host family. It depends on the host's meaning. Even if there is no arrangement, there is nothing to complain about at the wedding reception.
