Delicious Delights You’ll Want On Your Wedding Menu

Modern Wedding Posted: September 14, 2020

COVID has changed a lot of things when it comes to weddings, including how we can enjoy food. Sadly, we’ve had to say goodbye to buffet-style meals and roaming canapés for a little while. However, there’s still plenty of ways to enjoy a good feed on your big day! Read on and discover the most delicious delights to inspire your wedding dinner menu.

Fine Dining…

First things first—entrees! While we’re definitely missing roaming canapés at the moment, a delicious entree is still a great option for your sit-down wedding dinner. We love this classic combo of fillet steak with green beans because it looks uber refined and elegant yet the dish still packs tonnes of flavour and is super hearty!

Veggie Option…

To cater for the herbivores in your group, this mouth-watering entree is a real winner! If you’re saying “I do” in the warmer months, this vegetable and couscous salad serves as the perfect dish to kick off your sit-down wedding dinner. With a vibrant mix of fresh and seasonal veggies, even the meat lovers will be licking their plates clean!

Colourful Combo…

Making healthy food look pretty and appetising is a tried and tested method when it comes to getting children to eat their veggies. Well, the same can be said for adults! This entree of cucumber-rolled fresh greens and capsicums looks super elegant and your guests won’t even realise how healthy their meal is because it’s just so darn delicious.

Meat And Veg…

Meat and seasonal veggies are such a classic and well-loved food combo! Plus, when it’s made to perfection, it can look super elegant and sophisticated. Talk about a gift that keeps on giving! We absolutely love this option as a main course for a sit-down wedding dinner.

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner…

A good chicken dish is sure to go down a treat at a wedding! This lemon pepper chicken is light yet filling, making it a perfect choice all year round. Pairing your chicken with rice and an abundance of fresh greens is sure to have your wedding guests wanting seconds!

Raving About Risotto…

If you need a vegetarian option for your sit-down wedding dinner, opt for a delicious mushroom and lentil risotto. Filled with an array of delicious flavours and textures, this dish will win over everybody, regardless of whether or not they’re a vegetarian!

By The Seaside…

There are few things we love more than a classic pub feed! This stylish fish and chips is a deliciously hearty option for your sit-down wedding dinner that is a total crowd-pleaser.

Sweet As Potato…

If you’re opting for a sit-down meal but don’t want to serve a meal that will leave your guests feeling totally stuffed, sweet potato fries are a great option! They’re delicious and filling without being too heavy and can be served in a range of adorable ways.

Breakfast For Dessert…

Now, let’s be real—no wedding dinner is complete without dessert! Delight your sugar-loving guests with an indulgent waffle stack for their after-dinner treat. This is a pretty unique dessert option and will absolutely thrill your guests as they dive into this pile of pure deliciousness!

Cure-All Crumble…

If you want a more traditional dessert to round out your evening meal, you can never go wrong with a delicious fruit crumble! A sweet berry flavour or classic apple crumble is a total crowd pleaser and will have all your guests wanting seconds. Make sure to serve your crumble with a generous dollop of fresh whipped cream or indulgent vanilla ice cream.

Evening Wine…

For the bride who wants to serve wedding cake followed by a light snack, this individual tasting plate of cheese, grapes and fig is perfect! This is a wonderful way to finish off your evening over a smooth glass of wine and plenty of good times.

A New Kind Of Bubbles…

When you’re planning a stand-out wedding dinner, it’s also important to consider which drinks will accompany your meal. If you want to bring a touch of fun to your wedding menu, treat yo’ self to some delicious bubble teas! This is such a fun beverage to serve your guests, especially if you’re tying the knot in the summer sunshine.
