I’m planning my wedding and finally found a caterer I love. We planned out the menu as follows: Happy Hour - spinach artichoke dip with bread and fresh fruit platter with dip. Dinner - citrus herb baked bone-in chicken thighs, bbq pulled pork sliders, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, salad, and rolls.
I was pretty jazzed about the menu until a few people I asked said they didn’t like chicken thighs. I thought it was a better option than chicken breasts because those can dry out easily if cooked and then left in a warming tray (at least that’s my understanding).
If you went to a wedding where bone-in thigh was an option, would you not even eat it? I don’t want to have most guests pass over the chicken and run out of bbq pork or just not enjoy the chicken at all.
I am set on having a chicken option for guests who don’t eat pork. I also want a chicken entree that’s cohesive with the rest of our meal (example: I don’t think teriyaki chicken skewers would flow with the rest of the meal, ya know?)
Am I over thinking it? Do people really care that much? I haven’t been to many weddings where the food was extraordinary and I don’t want to give myself an ulcer over one meal in a persons life. Any thoughts or advice you could give would be so helpful!
