Grab your knife and fork at the ready! You\u2019re about to discover lip-smacking, mouthwatering food inspo that\u2019ll leave your guests raving for years to come.<\/p>\n
Main Meal & Wedding Breakfast Options<\/h2>\n
Firstly, let’s take a look at some traditional wedding meal possibilities.<\/p>\n
Three-Course Meal<\/h3>\n
If you go for a \u2018traditional\u2019 wedding, the most classic catering option is a three-course meal. If you want a formal sit-down meal and good food this can be a great route to go down.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n Check with your venue or caterers that you can have a menu tasting before the day, to check you are happy with what you will be served.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The barbecue is a lovely and relaxed option, especially for summer weddings. There are caterers out there that offer this option, with guests mingling with the sight and sound of the food cooking.<\/p>\n It also can suit many a palate with plain or complex tastes possible. If you fancy DIYing your wedding BBQ that is totally possible too, with a little organisation you can save a fair sum.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Buffets have a cool retro feel to them. With a community effort, you can get all of your guests involved by asking them to bring a plate. More recently, grazing boards and sharing platters have been a huge wedding trend.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n You can also ask your wedding venue or caterers for a buffet option. Buffets can be great for family affairs or for fussy eaters as guests can pick and choose what they would like to eat. It can also be cheaper per head than a more formal dinner.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Next up, we\u2019re going to take a look at some evening food inspiration, which could also replace more traditional wedding breakfasts too!<\/p>\n By 7 pm your guests may start to get the munchies. So it\u2019s a good idea to think about an evening snack to keep them partying into the small hours. No one wants a hungry tummy at a wedding.<\/p>\n Hog roasts have been increasingly popular at weddings in the UK and many wedding venues now offer a hog roast as a wedding meal alternative.<\/p>\n A hog roast can be totally delicious and can be served with rolls, jacket potatoes, salads and more.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n There are so many cool and quirky food trucks around the UK now offering fresh and tasty cuisine. There is a food style to suit every taste out there<\/p>\n Head to local events or markets, try out their food and ask them if they cater for events. A food truck can be a really cost-effective option for wedding food.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n There are also sweet food trucks available to hire, check out the dessert ideas below for inspiration.<\/p>\n Good old fish and chips can fill a hungry hole with no problem. Contact your local favourite fish and chip supplier. Many of them do mass catering and can also pre-book them to cook and deliver on the day. Budget-friendly cuisine at its best!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Afternoon tea has seen a resurgence in recent years and many couples have ditched the traditional wedding meal in favour of tea and cake. Pretty and delicious. What to serve?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Little morsels which are pretty yet scrummy. Get your guests in the party mood with canap\u00e9s on arrival at your reception. There are so many endless canap\u00e9 ideas to choose from.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Those with a sweet tooth will be eager to see what you have in store for dessert. Some venues offer multiple mini desserts for something extra special.<\/p>\n For a cost-cutting idea why not consider serving your wedding cake as dessert or ask your guests to bring sweet treats along for a buffet style bake off?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n You could also consider hiring a sweet food truck for the ultimate treat!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Perhaps you have specific requirements? Want locally produced, perhaps organic produce? <\/p>\n Check out your local caterers and pubs\/cafes where you enjoy eating. Why not source the ingredients yourself and then find someone to cook them for you? Think about your favourite snacks or treats you could include on the day.<\/p>\n There are also low-waste and eco-conscious caterers around now, perfect for sustainable weddings.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Don\u2019t forget catering for allergies or dietary requirements. Check with your guests what they need to stay safe and happy at your wedding breakfast. Nobody needs to miss out.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It\u2019s important to stay true to yourself when choosing your wedding menu, if you are still stuck for ideas take inspiration from:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p><\/p>\n The options really are endless, but it\u2019s super exciting choosing your menu. After all, the food is one of the most talked about aspects of any wedding. It\u2019s imperative though that you as a couple choose food you will love, at your wedding.<\/p>\n Mmmmm.
