Thank you. Trying to give a little to everyone. My mom laughed when she saw chicken and waffles and I'm like, it's fine. FH and I are pretty......unique lol. We'll also have kids there so anyone with kids who are somewhat picky, it's like how can you go wrong with chicken and waffles, right?? lol

Sounds delicious. I LOVE chicken cordon bleu. I haven't had that in forever.

View Quoted Comment We are doing a duet plate as well. I was freaking out about the rsvp and menu since most weddings I’ve been too were either like one of two options or buffet so I didn’t know how to word it on the rsvp! Do you know how you’ll be doing that or am I over thinking this whole thing?

View Quoted Comment I was overthinking at first.. but here is what I said:

View Quoted Comment The guests are replying and saying:


“No chicken for Amy, both for Josh.”

We are doing a potluck with our families and then supplying the pig to roast

View Quoted Comment That's pretty cool. Sounds real cozy and intimate.

We were originally going to have a brunch vow renewal, but our venue is changing and the new venue only hosts evening events... so I'm changing things from my original vision.

For the cocktail hour:
Mini Cuban sandwiches
Beef empanadas with pineapple chutney
Goat cheese on baguettes with seasonal jam
Proscuitto-wrapped peach skewers

For the reception, we're doing action stations. All of these would be smaller portions so people can get as much or as little as they want:

Texas barbecue - smoked beef brisket, creamy macaroni and cheese, smoked baked beans, dill potato salad
Tacos - choice of ground beef or grilled chicken, variety of taco toppings, tortillas or chip base for salads
Poke bowls - choice of (raw) salmon or tuna, variety of toppings (grape tomatoes, carrots, mango, edamame, seaweed salad) and sauces (soy sauce, spicy mayo)
Pizza - margherita, spinach and artichoke with white sauce
"Fire and Ice" dessert station - flaming donuts (glazed donut holes with Kahlua, brown sugar, and cinnamon, lit on fire by the chef) and liquid nitrogen ice cream (banana, strawberry, pistachio, vanilla, and chocolate, flash frozen by the chef)
Wedding cake - roasted almond cake brushed with Frangelico and filled with hazelnut praline buttercream and dark chocolate ganache, dark chocolate cake brushed with Grand Marnier and filled with orange marmalade
Signature drinks - blueberry lavender lemonade (non-alcoholic) and rose jam margarita

It looks really wacky typed out, but really, I just want to have good food and want everyone to have something they enjoy. Since it isn't a wedding, I feel like I can have fun with it, and basically just have a big dinner party.

View Quoted Comment That all sounds really delicious! A fun item on our menu is chicken and waffles lol

View Quoted Comment Sounds great. Love that you have mini chicken and waffles skewers. Chicken and waffles is actually one of our entrees lol

Our guests have the option of apple cider chicken thighs, tangerine pork tenderloin, or stuffed acorn squash as a veggie option. All three have the same sides: roasted potatoes w/ a garlic aioli and roasted asparagus.

For passed hors d'oeuvers we are having mac and cheese bites, caprese skewers, and swedish meatballs.

View Quoted Comment That's interesting. I never heard of that veggie meal before.
