Tips For a Great Wedding Menu

First, serve the food you love. It's your wedding--eat what you want!

Second, offer a varitey of foods--vegetarian, meat, and fish. This way there's something for everyone!
Thirdly, try offering different food stations like Thai and Italian.
 
 

Also, remember the time of day that you're getting married. For Example: You don't want to serve heavy sauces or meats at lunchtime.

Try making your menu choices based on the freshest ingredients available in your local area that you're getting married.

Another fun idea is to hire a Mixologist to design signature cocktails for you and your guests.
