Distinct Cuisines to Make A Perfect Reception

The choice of food you make for your wedding reception is more important than people realize. Sure, your family should be happy to see you get married and witness your beautiful Staten Island wedding. But not only that, even if you are honoring your parents for helping you out with your special day, the least you can do at your reception is have them well fed at the end of the night. Your choice of food might be different depending on your culture or the style you are looking to emulate. Either way, try to keep your guests’ appetite in mind as well.

Styles of cuisine to consider

For a formal or traditional occasion:

For more traditional weddings and receptions, you may want to stick with the typical, chicken, beef or pork style options. While also choosing an option that includes fish or a vegetarian option for anyone of your friends or family that does not eat meat. If they took the time to enjoy the night with you, they want to be fed as well.

For the less conventional:

If you and your friends or family have a love of sushi, who says you cannot have a full sushi bar at your reception? Break the mold and go for it! You will want to make sure you have everything you and guests need to still eat elegantly. However, if you include some options for people who may not like sushi, there is nothing stopping you from enjoying your night with something you regularly enjoy.

If your culture is the utmost importance to you:

You have friends of all backgrounds but your family wants food from their culture as well. There is not any reason you cannot make the best of this situation by introducing your friends to some new cuisine. If the food from your background is particularly spicy or otherwise, give your friends a heads up and tell them which foods to try out if they cannot handle spice or throw in some food on the side that anyone would love if you have a buffet style dinner.
