Designing a menu that is met with rave reviews depends largely on the personality of your guests. When selecting the reception menu take into consideration guest preferences and backgrounds.If anticipating several out-of-town guests, presenting them with a regional menu that represents the area they are visiting can have a novel feel.
However, if guests are traveling from other countries, they may feel homesick. So offering menu items reminiscent of their homeland will be a welcome option.
Special dietary requests (such as vegetarian, vegan gluten-free or Kosher meals) are increasing in popularity and always need to be discussed with your Caterer well in advance.
Certain parts of the country have preferences for different preparation styles. Guests from the South will have a different palate than guests from the Pacific Northwest.
The time of year your reception is held will also influence guest preferences. Winter lends itself to heartier meals whereas in summer guests may prefer a lighter meal.
When choosing a menu, try to place yourself into the mind of your guests and imagine the wedding day experience from their perspective. In doing so you’ll be able to capture their spirit in the tone of your wedding.
