After attending dozens and dozens of weddings, it’s been our experience that banquet meals have these things in common: they’re boring, uninventive, often luke-warm and underwhelming. Yawn! Thus, we’re excited to see many couples thinking outside the box when it comes to the food they serve and how they serve it at their reception. Instead of traditional sit-down meals (which have mistakenly been regarded as the most elegant option — not true!), couples are choosing stations, buffets, family-style dining and food carts to serve local specialties and their personal favorites.
From sushi bars to low country boils, burgers and taco bars, here are 10 food station ideas that have us salivating. Wouldn’t you want to chow down on some of this grub? We know we would.
