Wedding Catering: Menu Ideas & Tips for Your Vermont Celebration

Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and the food plays a starring role! Choosing the right wedding menu can set the tone and leave a lasting impression on your guests.

Here are some delicious ideas and tips to help you create a culinary masterpiece:


Menu Ideas

Charcuterie inspired by the season

  • Embrace Vermont Flavors: Incorporate local ingredients like maple syrup, artisan cheeses, honey, and seasonal produce into your dishes. Think herb-roasted chicken with the flavors harvested right from the caterer’s garden, Vermont cheddar macaroni and cheese, or a locally raised, grass-fed beef brisket. 

  • Seasonal Delights: Let the seasons inspire your menu. Summer weddings might feature fresh berries and grilled vegetables, while winter weddings could offer hearty soups and stews and roasted root vegetables.

  • Interactive Stations: Consider food stations like a carving station, pasta bar, or taco bar to add a fun and interactive element.

  • Signature Cocktails: Create signature cocktails featuring local spirits or Vermont-made ingredients.

Tips for Choosing Your Wedding Menu

  • Consider Your Guests: Think about your guests' dietary restrictions and preferences. Offer a variety of options to cater to all tastes.

  • Sample Tastings: Schedule tastings with potential caterers to sample their dishes and make informed decisions.

  • Don't Forget Dessert: A decadent wedding cake is no longer a must, but many choose to do a smaller one just for the ceremonial cutting and pictures.  There are so many other options like homemade donuts, pies, cookies, or an ice cream sundae bar.

  • Trust Your Caterer: Work closely with your caterer to create a menu that reflects your vision and complements your wedding style.
