You will want a catering company that will integrate these progressive trends for you. If you are in the south Florida area, that catering company is Catering CC. We have compiled a selection of the most popular and trending wedding foods of 2018.
One trend that has seen prominence in 2018 is doing brunch food. It’s probable that this trend got bigger because daytime weddings are cheaper than doing them in the late afternoon or at night. People are also doing breakfast for dinner! You can also have a booze breakfast-brunch themed wedding, with mimosas, bloody marys and omelets. Not only is the food delicious, but it’s less expensive.
Fresh food is another theme that is permeating 2018 wedding food culture. People are starting to have more organic and local foods at their wedding. This is especially true in the case of fruit and veggies. This is a great way to give your wedding a sense of your hometown, or the area in which you live with your partner. Farm fresh foods and also meats and cheese are now a cornerstone of a lot of wedding catering services and buffets.
Another theme that is becoming a part of 2018 is integrating more food into the cocktail hour. This is often done in some kind of display, such as a chef shucking oysters or a waiter making guacamole or a bartender muddling drinks. This will liven up cocktail hour and also provide food for often hungry guests. I mean, come on, who doesn’t wanna eat and drink at the same time?
Food trucks are also making their way into modern weddings. The street trend of food trucks (which provide excellent, surprisingly gourmet options if you have never been to one) is being incorporated into more weddings than ever. There are so many types of food that can be made and eaten from a food truck, so whatever you select can really represent your partner and you. A lot of urban couples are choosing food trucks so they can highlight the culture of their environment to the guests at the wedding.
Themed tables are also being highlighted in terms of wedding food, especially at buffets. Themes are big can they can come in a variety of forms. You could try a salt thing and get chocolate caramel salt, bacon salt and more, or you could try a bacon table for ultimate fun and quirkiness.
Comfort is also the name of the game. Couples are starting to serve fancied up comfort foods such as burgers, mac and cheese and more. A fun way to fancy up cheeseburgers is to serve them in monogram bags or with fancy napkins or skewers. This gussied up burger represents the best of both worlds and is perfect for couples who seek balance.
