wedding dessertWedding tip for wedding reception food

People often remember the food when they go to a wedding reception, whether it’s good or bad. Something to consider when you are choosing your wedding reception menu is your guests.

Yes, it’s your wedding but you are spending a lot of money so you want people to like what is being served.

Here are some wedding tips so that people enjoy your reception food.

Give them a choice
It’s always a good idea to offer your guests a choice on what they would like to eat for your wedding reception People may have food allergies, so this way they can choose what they would like to eat. Two choices is enough.

Keep it simple
Just because it’s not something fancy, it doesn’t meant that it won’t be good. If they are faced with something that they aren’t sure what it is, they may be reluctant to eat it so don’t go for things that people can’t identify.

Keep it clean
Everyone at your wedding reception is going to be wearing their best clothes. You want to stay away from food that is very messy or could cause stains that will be hard to remove.

Remember, you are going to be wearing a white dress. The last thing you will want is to have something
spill on it that may ruin it, or will be very noticeable. Make it your wedding plan to not have spaghetti!

Think about what you have had in the past at wedding receptions, and what you liked or didn’t like about
them. That will help you plan your own wedding reception menu.

Budget Minded
To be good and memorable, does not have to mean expensive. It's a good way to limit your costs, so you can spend your wedding budget where it makes the most amount of bang for your buck (usually your photographer and your DJ). Pick vegetarian meals or vegetable platters for cocktail hour. It's healthier and less expensive. Usually buffet is more expensive than plated food, but check with the venue and the caterer. Also for dessert consider mini desserts instead of full wedding cake.
