I was the disc jockey for some good people out of Schenectady, NY this past weekend, hosted at a nice little restaurant called The Cella Bistro. The bride and groom’s favorite thing about past wedding receptions that they had attended was always the appetizers. They liked mushrooms, and wonton shrimp and crab cakes and friend veggies and jumbo shrimp, you know, all the yummy stuff.
So what did they do? They made EVERYTHING APPETIZERS!
That is right. There was no real sit down, but there was soooo much good finger food and horderves around that you never even missed it.
In the end, they said it worked out to be FARRRRR cheaper than if you were to go with a sit down or buffet.
The bride and groom should always think about their guests by providing a different enough selection so everyone can enjoy the wedding feast – be it vegetarian, hardcore carnivore, lactose intolerant, shellfish or peanut allergies, diabetic, etc. No matter what you are offering, a vast selection of both traditional wedding favorites, and more strange “out there” exotic gourmet goodies gives everyone the opportunity to enjoy their favorites, as well as try out some new dishes for them.
