Food plays a central role in making your wedding successful or a failure, so you don’t want to disappoint your guests by choosing the wrong menu for your reception. For a unique and delicious menu, you can go through some of the reception food ideas mentioned below. These ideas will help you layout a fancy and unique menu for your wedding reception.

Mini Waffle Bites

Waffles are no longer just a breakfast food. And with the chicken and waffle craze taking over dining it is no wonder that couples are wanting to incorporate mini waffle bites into their wedding day menu. Serving these cute appetizers gives you tons of flexibility. You can choose the trendy chicken & waffles, a savory fruit topped waffle or be adventurous and serve bite-sized waffles cups with a drizzle of sour cream, sprinkles of sweet corn kernels, and cilantro, during cocktail hour. A mini waffle appetizer is something new that isn’t normally served at weddings, but if you want something different and unique, then this is the perfect option for you. Your guests will love your creative and unique wedding menu!

Fruit Salad Bar

In 2020 we will see caterers use vibrant punches of color in their food displays to create an amazing visual food experience. If you are hosting a summer wedding, afternoon wedding or are looking for a light and refreshing option for your wedding guests a fruit salad bar might be right up your alley. You can choose to arrange a small salad bar carrying several different types of fruits. Allow your guests to build their own fruit bowl by combining apples, guavas, pineapples, oranges, star fruit, blueberries, strawberries, etc. This is a wonderful interactive food experience for your wedding.

4 Delicious Wedding Menu Ideas That Won’t Disappoint!

Baby Lobster Rolls

Lobster rolls are another type of appetizer you can serve at your wedding. They are a perfect treat for your family and friends after an exciting day. Not to mention, most of the people who eat lobster rolls, love them. If you’re having a marine-themed wedding, this would be the best type of food to go with your theme.

Wow Your Wedding Guests With These Unforgettable Food Ideas

Herb Crusted Lamb

It is best to choose one heavy main course rather than having a couple of them, which confuses guests on what to eat. The perfect main course would be something like herb-crusted lamb with some fresh veggies.

Blueberry Cobbler

For an unexpected, and tantalizing wedding dessert, shock your guests by serving a delicious blueberry cobbler. Rather than adding the same old boring, and “expected” wedding desserts add some style and flair to your soiree. Cobbler is the best sweet dish to top off everyone’s sweet cravings after a satisfying main course. To put the ultimate finishing touch on your wedding celebration, make sure that your guests enjoy their crumbly blueberry cobbler with a scoop of vanilla ice cream! Or serve individual blueberry cobbler pots for an extra WOW experience!

Shrimp & Grits

Who says you have to stick to the “traditional” main course dinner options at your wedding? Delectable Shrimp & Grits is a trendy food item right now, so wouldn’t it be amazing to offer this as an option at your wedding? Wedding trends in 2020 are expanding on the experience-based and interactive activities we saw in 2019. And the food is definitely a great way to have your guests co-mingle and experience each other. Set up individual serving stations that allow your wedding guests to graze through dinner, selecting different options and savoring every minute of your wedding day. Serve Shrimp and Grits at your wedding as a main course or in mini shrimp and grits appetizer cups. Either way, it’s a delicious and unique wedding food that will delight your guests.

Your wedding menu is one of the most important things you will have to plan. Make some wonderful, unexpected food and cocktail choices and blow the socks off your wedding guests! Check out local wedding caterers on The Aisle Wedding Directory today.
