Choosing the perfect wedding menu is certainly not a simple task! The right combination of flavors, the quality of the ingredients, and the aesthetic presentation of the dishes can elevate the wedding reception, as the detail is what makes the difference for both the couple and their guests.
The exceptional quality of the ingredients, fresh and seasonal products, combined with originality and imagination, will give you the result you have dreamed of for your special day. Below you will find some tips so you won't be surprised on your wedding day:
Dietary Preferences & Allergies of Guests
One of the first - and perhaps most important - steps in creating a wedding menu is to consider your guests' dietary preferences. Ensure that your menu includes options for vegetarians, vegans, and individuals with food allergies or intolerances. Consult your catering manager to create a comprehensive menu that caters to different tastes and needs with a range of options.
Balanced Menu
A balanced wedding menu includes a mix of appetizers, main courses, and desserts. Start the reception with a welcome drink and continue with light and tasty appetizers that open the appetite. Proceed to a varied selection of main courses, offering options for both meat lovers and vegetarians. Complete the gastronomic journey with a selection of delicious desserts and sweets, creating a candy bar filled with sweet treats.
Extra tip: Also take care of the after menu as during the reception, your guests will surely want to eat during the party. Finger food such as mini hot dogs or mini burgers will be appreciated by your guests in any case.
Match the Menu with the Wedding Theme
The menu should complement the theme and style of your wedding. Whether you are organizing a formal evening wedding reception or a boho-style wedding, the food should reflect the atmosphere you have dreamed of. For a classic wedding, think of timeless dishes like filet mignon or pork loin. If you want a more relaxed atmosphere - like in a boho wedding, choose a buffet with a variety of dishes that will suit different tastes.
Traditional & Local Delicacies
Adding traditional and local ingredients and delicacies to the reception menu is a pleasant surprise for the guests. If you are a cheese lover, for example, you can offer a cheese platter combined with deli meats from various regions. Indeed, you can do the same with various types of olives, rusks, or breadsticks. It is a unique touch to your wedding menu that will be unforgettable. In any case, consult the catering or the chef to ensure that the traditional delicacies match the rest of the menu.
Keep it Simple
What mainly counts in food is quality. By creating a balanced menu that caters to different dietary needs, you can be sure that your guests will enjoy the food on this special day for you.
