Making Your Marriage A Family Affair: Chic Celebrations That Put The Focus On Friends and Family
June 22, 2016
With rustic weddings being all the rage and exotic destinations being the location for many unique and eclectic “I Do’s”…some couples “may” find it somewhat challenging to find an upscale local caterer to host their haute soiree and serve guests trendy and tasty tidbits to please even the most persnickety of palettes.
Why not let the past pave the road to the future with a trendy twist on a classic New York style Italian Football Wedding, where guests literally had a hand in hosting this family –style event.
Consider asking those (foodies) closest to you help plan the menu and the meal, each contributing their very best signature dish to you fabulous homestyle and homemade culinary/gourmet gala. It’s also a GREAT way to introduce family and friends to some of YOUR (childhood) favorites and to help blend the families and the cultures for a one-of-a-kind culinary experience. You may even want to print out and hand out (as a keepsake that keeps on giving) a cookbook featuring each of these recipes and the “family history” behind them.
Want to host a truly avant-garde but authentic New York style Italian Football wedding? Consider serving (during your cocktail hour) nouveau chic mini versions of Italian sub classics and salads. And, for the main course consider ethnic favorites such as spaghetti and meatballs, linguini and clam sauce, oso buco, and for dessert….irrisistable affogato….especially if you CAN find someone to cater.
