When you think of bars at weddings, cocktails and wine glasses usually come to mind, but today we’re focusing on something that’s becoming more and more popular at weddings: creative food bars. Traditionally, the three-course sit-down dinner has always been the most formal and common option, but as trends shift towards modern and contemporary ones, food stations are becoming de rigeur at today’s weddings. We’re not talking about typical food stations either; it’s not just a table filled with vanilla cupcakes or the salad bar that no one really pays attention to (because who really gets excited over thousand island dressing and stale-looking croutons?) We’re talking about truly creative food stations that aren’t just interactive for your guests, but will also be crowd pleasers for everyone, no matter their dietary requirements, as most food stations allow guests to request/prepare their dishes to their exact liking.
Think of your food stations as empty canvases to showcase your personality as a couple and as spaces to corroborate with your wedding theme. Maybe you both love burgers, so why not have a build-your-own burger station with all the works? Or perhaps you’re having a rustic wedding, so why not provide an olive and bread station? The possibilities with food stations are endless, so keep scrolling down for some inspiration!
