Definition of luncheon : a formal usually midday meal as part of a meeting or for entertaining a guest; a company luncheon; a fund-raising luncheon
I just assumed it's some sort of regional American thing. Supper to me is a light meal you have at a cocktail party etc not dinner.
People of an older generation and more working class background here still refer to dinner as tea and in some rural parts lunch is still called dinner.
