According to Yum Sugar, a respected website about gourmet food, there are some definite wedding food trends to watch out for this year.
One of the trends is to serve local sustainable foods and organic produce. This is because having “green” weddings is also in and eating locally and seasonally helps save the environment.
Another trend is towards serving expensive red wines (preferably organic.) Serving Tiki cocktails and Long Island Teas is not as fashionable as it used to be. If you do choose to serve cocktails make sure they are unusual colors like blue or bright fuschia.
The full sit down dinner is also not as fashionable as it used to be. Instead serve small dishes at a buffet that is loaded with healthy yet gourmet selections. Large platters full of food to share should also be part of the meal.
It is also fashionable to have a dessert buffet filled with many small selections. Consider serving puddings, cupcakes and tartlettes rather than just one big dish.
