Wedding Reception Food Ideas
The Bride, the Groom and the hungry Guests.
How do you make the menu you offer to your guests as memorable as the ceremony you have planned?
You and your hubby will probably be too excited and busy to eat during your wedding reception, however, your guests will be looking forward to having a good time and being fed.
Talk to friends and family members and get their recommendations for caterers because not all cooks are culinary experts. Do not hire anyone without sampling his/her food first.

Presentation of food is also important, when sampling a caterer’s food check and see if it looks appetizing and has a good aroma.

When choosing the food for your reception it is necessary to keep in mind the theme of your reception. If you are having a New Orleans Mardi Gras wedding reception theme you would not want to serve lasagna and salami, instead you would serve Cajun Creole dishes.
Your menu choices should also coincide with the time of day your reception will take place. An early morning ceremony lends itself to breakfast or brunch foods. Appropriate menu choices would be eggs, pancakes, French toast, muffins, croissants, fresh fruit, cheeses and lunchmeats.
Evening wedding receptions tend to be more orientated towards a sit down dinner or buffet, which is more expensive than an afternoon reception. If you are going with a traditional dinner, talk with several caterers and discuss their menu options. Typical entrée choices include; chicken and pasta, which are less expensive than beef, fish, or veal. Most caterers will have you pick three entrees for your guests to choose from.

Some of your guests will have dietary or religious restrictions. It is important to know your guest’s needs and be prepared to offer a vegetarian, diabetic, or kosher meal to those guests requiring them.

Whether you are going with simple or extravagant food choices, I do hope my wedding reception food ideas will help you with your decision making process.
