What Should We Serve at Our Wedding?
Ideas for Wedding Reception Food
You deserve to have a carefree wedding so having it a professionally catered wedding reception takes a great load off of your shoulders and those of your friends and families. Many reception venues also have an in-house caterer or require a professional caterer.
Before you go out to select a caterer, you should have some ideas of the foods that they would like to serve. Do you want ethnic food to represent your respective family cultures? Do you want hip modern fusion? Do you want barbeque or regional American like Maryland crab cakes or Jambalaya?
Then, if your reception venue allows an outside caterer, set up tasting appointments so you can find a caterer that you like.

Your caterer will be able to determine the amount of food to serve based on your guest count and the cost per person based on the menu and number of optional items (such as appetizers, special linens, etc) that you have selected.. You can provide a more or less elegant reception meal by your food choices, table set ups and whether you are having a plated or buffet reception.
