After you walk down the aisle and say “I do,” you can celebrate your happy union with friends and family at your wedding reception! Serving a delicious meal is a great way to thank your guests for attending your special day before hitting the dance floor. Keep these tips in mind when you are ready to start planning your wedding menu:
Choose a theme for your wedding:
Wedding themes are popular among couples of all ages and styles. Choosing a theme can help you stay focused and pick elements that work well together, from flowers to table centerpieces. Your wedding theme can also be incorporated into your menu if you select flavors and foods that fit in with the overall mood or atmosphere set by your chosen theme. For example, if you want a rustic country-style wedding, you might choose prime rib that guests dish out themselves.
Meet with your wedding planner:
You can always get guidance and inspiration for your wedding menu by scheduling a visit with your wedding planner. After picking a wedding venue, set up an appointment with one of the wedding planners to discuss your reception and menu. Many venues offer menu packages for weddings, from hors d'œuvres to desserts, taking the stress out of finding an offsite caterer. You will be able to see all of the available options and what types of menus you can create for your special day.
Taste your top options:
It is important to choose foods that you and your fiancé enjoy, and what sounds delicious on paper may not wow your palate once you try it. This day is all about the two of you, so you should indulge in your favorite foods! Arrange to taste your top selections before the big day.
Decide if you need alternative menu options:
You should also find out if any of your guests have any dietary restrictions that would stop them from eating items on your wedding menu. Adding extra options for vegetarian or gluten-free guests is a great way to make sure all of your loved ones feel included.
Turf Valley offers fabulous wedding menu packages that make it easy to choose the perfect menu. Learn more about our Baltimore hotel hall by calling us at (443) 364-9022.
