Buffet versus Set Menu for Your Wedding Meal

Posted on June 17, 2017 at 5:56 am

Selecting a food option for your wedding may be a daunting task, trying to cater to everyone’s food preferences and dietary needs. It is important to remember that it is your wedding day and you and your partner should be in charge of making the final decision when it comes down to the wedding food.

A great way to make you and your guests happy is by opting for a buffet as your main wedding meal. This works great during the warmer months as you can incorporate a BBQ and a variety of salads and other side options too. The BBQ can include meats and vegetarian foods too, and with a buffet style your wedding guests have the option to go up for more food should they want to.

Buffets aren’t for all, as some may see this as too informal for their main meal. In this case, a set menu is probably the best option. Make sure you are happy with your final food choices and just check the caterer is happy to have vegetarian or gluten-free options available too.

Posted on May 14, 2017 at 3:26 pm

With the weather starting to improve, most are making the most of getting outdoors and the barbecue are making an appearance. Barbecues are really what makes a great summer, bringing friends and family together, eating good food and having a couple of beers to wash it all down.

If you are thinking of hosting a barbecue in your back garden, you certainly don’t want to disappoint. Getting the food right is a must, and of course, it starts with the meats. Go to your local butcher and select a good range of meats, from burgers, sausages, ribs, chops and chicken, everyone love choice. Flavour up your meats the night before, leaving them to absorb the marinade overnight ready to release the flavours over the heat.

Salads and extras are a must, adding 3 different salads, from a basic pasta to a leafy green bowl, every is happy. And just before you are ready to tuck in, get the pre-cooked cobs on the heat for that added barbecue flavour.
