3 Popular Catering Trends To Consider For Your Wedding
Getting married is going to be one of the best days of your life, but planning a wedding may be one of the most stressful things that you do. In addition to finding the right dress, the right venue, and the right flowers, one of the most important things to consider is what kinds of food you are going to be serving at your wedding. While chocolate fountains were all the rage ten years ago at weddings, 2020 is bringing some new catering trends for you to talk to your banquet hall catering service about.
Trend #1: Filled Churros
Who doesn't love a hot, fresh churro? One of the biggest trends in catering is having a filled churro cart or stand at your wedding. Filled churros are fairly affordable, they're delicious, and you can have them filled with a variety of different filings including Nutella, chocolate, dulce de leche, and vanilla. One of the best things about serving churros is that they don't require any utensils or plates which means that you can cut costs in that area.
Trend #2: Childhood Favorites Turned Gourmet
One of the biggest trends in catering that you can count on this year is taking childhood favorites and adding a gourmet twist to them. Not only will it bring a nostalgic twist to things but it will get people excited about eating that food.
What was your favorite snack or food growing up? Was it a Hostess Ding Dong? Was it Kraft macaroni and cheese? Was it a grilled cheese sandwich? Now imagine taking all of your favorite foods growing up but putting an adult/gourmet twist on them. For instance, can you say homemade Ding Dong? Or fried macaroni and cheese balls? What about pulled pork grilled cheese sandwiches?
Trend #3: Your Favorite Foods
Going to a wedding and eating finger foods may be something of the past. Because more and more people are finding a love for and appreciation of good food, they want the food to be the focus at their reception. Plan on seeing more favorite foods at wedding receptions this year like Mexican food, BBQ, and even pizza. The great thing about this trend is that nobody will leave a reception feeling hungry.
If you are getting married this year, make sure that you and everyone around you has fun at your wedding reception and that you serve good food. To learn more, reach out to your banquet hall's catering service.
