As you are choosing each detail of your wedding day, your menu must also be perfect and incorporate your vision. When looking at menu details incorporate what is in season and can be sourced locally as much as possible. As you work with your caterers to create your unique theme they will be able to advise you so that the locally sourced ingredients complement the exquisite experience of your special day.

Another point to consider when celebrating on your wedding day with family and friends, is the alcohol served is just as important as the food. Why not try a new catering trend for 2017, which is the infusion of alcohol and local botanicals within wedding cuisine.
