So Many Names for Wedding Finger Foods
Whether called appetizers, tapas, hors d’oeuvres or wedding finger foods, the tasty morsels of food that are passed around by servers or placed on platters on your reception buffet, are often enough to serve for your entire meal. Yet, your wedding appetizers can be there to just whet the appetite for a formal main course at your reception.
Should Wedding Appetizers be the Main Event?
It’s up to you and your budget to decide if wedding appetizers will preface your main reception meal or be your main reception meal. Consider that many of the popular bashes of the rich and famous are catered with elegant trays of finger foods, already in bite sized pieces and easy to eat, while guests are standing and chatting with each other. A plated meal is not a necessity for your wedding either.
Infinite Possibilities for Scrumptious Wedding Reception Finger Foods
Years ago a favorite passed finger food was called franks in blankets. These were delicious small hot dogs wrapped in a baked bread dough and optionally dipped in deli mustard. Now you have finger foods that circle the world in their variety. How about salmon croquettes or mini quiches or sushi? You can have chicken satay or sweet meatballs or a garden of vegetables on toothpicks.
These are just some of the infinite possibilities of good finger foods that you can serve at your wedding reception. Another trend is having an urban lounge effect for your cocktail hour.
