Choosing to have a Winter wedding is a great idea. We all know is it a time of the season when wedding venues are more affordable. This season also allows for a romantic and intimate event since friends are often hesitant to travel or drive to events because of the likelihood of snow and extreme cold. Thus, choosing the right foods for your Winter wedding is a key task in the wedding planning process.
One of the top things people look forward to at a wedding is the food. If you don’t get it right with your wedding menu, your guests won’t have a good time. In this article, we’re sharing with you some lovely food ideas that you could serve at your winter wonderland wedding.
We’ll talk about the general things to focus on and give you some good examples.
Comfort Food
Think warm winter foods. Your wedding is in the winter, after all. When it comes to comfort foods, the first thing to remember is bread—preferably served warm like from the oven with butter. Mac and cheese are also a favorite, and these timeless classics are sure to delight and instill a sense of togetherness.
Cheese Is Good for A Winter Wedding
When it comes to your Winter Wonderland wedding, cheese is an all-around winner. Cheese fondue, a cheese course, a cheese bar, or the traditional cheeseboard. Warm, melty cheese is a must.
Fermented Food
We’ve already mentioned cheese twice, but other options are preserved vegetables, yogurt, beer, and wine. Pickled vegetables, mushrooms, and cabbage are great ideas that might appeal to your guests.
Vegetarian or Vegan
More and more people are going meat-free, so vegetarian/vegan meals are also becoming popular. Using fresh veggies is a great way to bring holiday colors to your menu and forget the tasty meat and cheese replacements. How about a creamy roasted butternut squash soup or mushroom wellington?
The bar
Mulled wine, cider punch, pumpkin spice with white Russians, and hot buttered rum are all excellent choices for the bar at your wedding. Also, add some spirits, and don’t forget the hot chocolate.
Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup
With this idea, you’ll be taking classic cold-weather food and adapting it for your wedding. Serve these in small cocktail sizes, and you’ll delight your guests. It’ll bring up homely memories and fun.
Snowy Milkshake
This milkshake is an excellent idea for your dessert. An all-white vanilla milkshake is not only delicious; it’ll go perfectly with your winter wedding. You can add a sugar snowflake on top too.
S’ mores
S’ mores are a great idea and an even better idea for a winter wedding. Use it as a fun and interactive option by letting your guests roast it over a campfire if it’s safe enough. You can also send guests home with it as wedding favors.
Charcuterie Spreads
Keep your guests satiated through your wedding by having charcuterie spreads made available at different times. They can be served before dinner and also as a late-night snack. Charcuterie spreads are easy to share and are a great way to represent the holiday season at your wedding.
Pasta & Macaroni-and-Cheese Bites
Pasta is an excellent idea for a winter wedding because you can serve with something rich like ravioli bursting with cheese and veggies. Mac-and- Cheese is another cloud pleaser and is the last option on our list of unique food ideas for your Winter wedding. Your guests will love digging into it and making your wedding memorable.
In Conclusion
Your winter wedding menu is one of the surest ways to ensure you and your guests have a great time. We hope these options will add delight and joy to your wedding. And one key factor to include is to ask for your caterers’ input.
Best of luck!!!
