Although you may not know it, there’s a whole world of finger foods besides chicken fingers and french fries. Many couples have decided to incorporate mini gourmet foods into their wedding day. Offering popular dishes in a bite-sized portion is convenient not only during cocktail hour, but also during the reception in order to avoid a long (and sometimes disruptive) sit-down dinner. By incorporating mini-foods into your menu, you give your guests the chance to dance, enjoy the party, and socialize all while eating their meal. Guests are also able to sample more of the delicious food you’ve chosen, as the small portions and fast service give them the opportunity to try a little bit of everything. Here are some of the mini-foods that we would love a taste of.
