Your wedding day is the one day it is all about you and the one you love. So making it extra special is a must. The wedding menu should correspond to the theme if you have one of your blessed day or pertain to foods that the two of you love the most. Hiring a caterer as most couple's do will be a great asset as they can help guide you along the way for an exquisite menu everyone will enjoy.
For a beautiful spring-time event you can decorate with the seasons most exquisite flowers and use pastels such as pale pinks, lavender, blues and yellows. Two favorite flowers are daffodils and tulips for this time of the year. The menu should include refreshing food and drinks. The cake should also be in pastel colors and in a flavor like lemon, coconut, or strawberry with light butter-cream whipped frosting and filled with fresh fruit that corresponds to the actual flavor.
Some spring drink ideas people love include mojito's and bloody mary's. For a fall spectacular colors should be kept in the theme of autumn like burnished gold, red, brown, orange hues. The menus should have hearty foods within it, starting with a spinach, and kale salad filled with tomatoes, squash and corn kernels served with a raspberry vinaigrette or an Asian ginger dressing.
You can choose between richer foods for the entree like apple glazed guinea hens, roasted pork or a thick cut of steak. Sides to incorporate are butternut squash, sauteed mushrooms and onions with some type of corn bread. The desserts that work wonderfully this time of year are cheesecakes, apple spiced turnovers or apple caramel turnovers.
A nice roasted pork with honey, sliced apples and raisins is perfect for the cooler temperature in fall. Nice crisp cocktails like apple brandy or apple spiked ciders will delight the taste buds and accompany the entire menu. The wedding cake can be pumpkin spice cake with a pumpkin pie filling and frosted with a caramel butter-cream in a fall color or a nice spiced cake with a filling of dark chocolate and frosted with a burnished gold or red dark chocolate frosting.
Cocktails and drinks to add to your fall menu can be apple spiked cider and regular cider or a warming mulled cranberry cider. You can use darker red wines as well to round out the entire meal. Winter weddings are made to look magical as if one has stepped into a winter wonderland. Your menu for the winter season should be not only inviting but warming too.
Cocktails like hot buttered rum and hot cocoa with a little extra kick added in with marshmallow or peppermint vodka are great accompaniments to the meal. A soup with vegetables and a hearty beef served with a rye or wheat bread are perfect for starting the reception. Your entree can be a nice ham with brown sugar and honey glazing, this will get everyone in the holiday spirit.
The cake can be decorated with sparkle and glitz, it is the season for it. You should think about dark rich flavors like dark chocolate, red velvet or spiced cake and then add in a filling like caramel, cherry cordial and buttered rum while frosting in a tinted butter cream to match the colors of the season. It is you and your beloveds day so if would rather add in foods you both love then by all means do it, as there is no set of rules you have to adhere too.
