Mother of the Bride, are you and the Mr. & Mrs.-to-Be considering the menu for the wedding reception yet? Options are numerous, and families today choose anything from a full sit-down dinner to a buffet to hors d’oeuvres to cake and punch alone. Your choice will be determined, of course, by the happy couple’s wishes as well as the wedding budget.
One super fun idea is to feature a chef-attended live-action station at some point during the festivities. A chef at work could be incorporated in any number of ways, depending on your specific menu items.
For our younger daughter’s wedding, we chose a dinner buffet with an Italian theme. The caterer arranged for a chef to be at one of the serving tables preparing cheese tortellini in pesto sauce. It added such an exciting touch to the celebration. Could you do something similar with the menu your couple has chosen?
MOB, grab the bride, put your thinking caps on, and see how you might incorporate a chef at work in the upcoming party-of-your-lives!
