Breakfast for Dinner

We’re doing this- brunch for dinner! So excited and our guests are excited about the food too!! Our venues chef is super into this and is loving our custom menu. We are having a Bloody Mary and Mimosa Bar (as well as a full bar) and doing a donut hole table instead of a candy buffet. For cocktail hour we have a fruit and cheese display and hand passed shrimp cocktail and mini quiches (goat cheese & spinach). Our buffet dinner has egg strata, crab cake eggs Benedict, apple stuffed French toast, potatoes o’brian, carved ham, chorizo patties, and open-faces focaccia sandwiches (ham salad, egg salad, chicken salad, and lox and cream cheese).

We just did our tasting last month and it was amazing!! I’ll have to share how it goes over in April

As someone who HATES typical breakfast foods, I say if you want it then have it. People who don’t want it can eat before hand or not go.

Oh- also serving sliders as a late night snack! Chicken and waffles and mini burgers!

Maybe hardier southern breakfast for dinner. You know your crowd best. shrimp and grits, biscuits, french toast, carving station, steak/eggs, chicken/waffles, salmon...i think would be good options. You could also have appetizers that are brunch themed. Sounds like a good idea to me. So less bacon and eggs and toast ihop style but upgraded style sounds yum.

I LOVE breakfast for dinner! I think this is a great idea!

I absolutely LOVE breakfast. That would be my favorite unforgettable wedding if I went to one that did breakfast!! Lol I say do it

Not that this won't be tasty and i love bkfst, but I don't see eating bkfst and them drinking and dancing. I agree with the brunch wedding if you heart is set on bkfst.

I wouldn’t like this because eggs, and pretty much all breakfast foods, make me feel sick. But if your crowd likes it, then go for it. Just make sure you take everyone into consideration so they don’t have to stop at McDonald’s on the way home.

I agree if it’s a Saturday night wedding this really doesn’t fly. I’d be pretty bothered to eat breakfast then cake while drinking. I would need a real substantial meal.

People on this site can be harsh sometimes. It’s your wedding, so do what YOU (and fh) want! I love this idea. I wish I saw this before I booked my food vendor!

I think it would be a great idea! If you both love breakfast, you should go for it! I agree with others, maybe having a carving station would be great for adding meats in. You definitely want to provide a good variety of breakfast foods. Maybe adding a few brunch foods for those who don’t love breakfast as much.

View Quoted Comment This sounds amazing. OP do this and invite me! Lol!

I LOVE breakfast for dinner. I think its very cute, and it's your wedding. You can literally do whatever you want. If I was a guest I'd think that it was very cute, unique, and I'd be pretty excited

Breakfast... YUM! I do agree with others. maybe heighten the food. Like as steak and eggs or chicken and waffles. Or eggs Benedict instead of scrambled eggs. Fancy breads with all different cheese and jam spreads. and maybe a crepe station with a topping bar to make it a little more formal and fun too

I LOVE this idea it is different and unique but so traditional (perfect for a southern style wedding) ! Wish i would have thought of it honestly ! The sign is also very cute and rustic feeling ...great ideas I'm jelly now I wanna come eat breakfast for dinner at your wedding lol

View Quoted Comment OP asked for opinions and that’s what we’re giving. I’m sure OP wants honesty, not validation.

Personally I'd add more to the menu. Such as crepes (the fruit kind), country fried steak, maybe some biscuits and gravy. Otherwise I don't see a problem with it.

I personally would love this - I LOVE breakfast! But I think this is definitely a know your crowd kind of thing; not everyone likes breakfast food (my husband rarely eats it). And if you do breakfast food, make sure there is plenty and lots of protein options (and vegetarian options), not just carbs/starches.

I am a complete lover of breakfast, but I would not want it at a Saturday night wedding. Maybe a late night snack of chicken & waffles or something along those lines. But breakfast rarely fills me up and when I am drinking I need a good base. This is just my opinion, you do whatever you both want!

This looks great! No rules. If you want it...DO IT! Be the change!
