Hi again!

For this week’s blog post I will be focussing on wedding food! Yum! My Fiancé and I are torn between having a buffet style dinner or having more of a formal catered menu. There are pros and cons to both, but I think the informality and broader option choice of a buffet style dinner is a lot more flexible for guests. My personal food favourite is anything seafood, but I know this is the most expensive option.. (LOL of course!) My dream buffet would include halibut, seared scallops or jumbo prawns, and a steak option, as well various delicious vegetable dishes (scalloped potatoes, asparagus, big hearty salad, etc.) In addition to this, I would love to have various carb snacks such as cheeseburgers, bread and cheese, pizza, or tacos to end the night after a long day of dancing!

I found this video that was super helpful to decide between what wedding food style to choose and the many tips, pros and cons, and things to consider when booking a caterer for your wedding day.

I also found this super fun video of a couple who samples their wedding dinner menu and explains the many options and which ones every bride and groom should consider. I found these tips extremely helpful and will definitely take these into consideration when I start looking at our menu options.

This blog was also very helpful and provided multiple suggestions that differed from the YouTube videos, as it went into more detail. For example: “Taco buffets are a great way to serve crowds of any size. Make sure to combine classic favourites, like guacamole and pico to gallo, with unique additions, like mushrooms and mango, to make your spread tasty and memorable.” (Zola, 2022.)
