Should you treat your wedding guests to hardy hors d’oeuvres or pretty crudités displays? Lots of couples are turning the tables on this question to embrace a quirky new trend in feeding the wedding day masses – gourmet food truck catering.
Food trucks themselves are nothing new; Mobile eateries have been around since the days of the chuck wagon in 1800s and today food trucks are sidewalk-favorites from New York to LA. But now brides and grooms are parking food trucks on the bridal landscape as a quirky, low-cost way to feed their guests during their cocktail hour or even wedding after parties. Whether it’s spicy gourmet tamales, tasty cupcakes, one-of-a-kind burgers, delectable chicken and rice dishes, there’s a food truck menu for every taste!
So are mobile munchies right for you?
Take a good look at the time of year, the tone you want to set and your guest list before you answer. Outdoor food trucks definitely won’t work for a winter wedding and it may be a little too offbeat if you’ve been dreaming of an elegant, fairytale affair. Of course, you should also consider who your guests are and what they’ll enjoy. Gourmet food trucks could be the perfect tie-in for more adventurous themes.
So are food trucks an option for you? Distinct Event Planning wants to know.
