How can I liven up the F&B service during the reception to encourage more guest interaction?
A communal style, at-home reception encourages interaction but loses the luxury touch.
Likewise, food stations are perceived as lavishly inviting but it would be challenging to get everyone’s attention during important moments such as performances and speeches. A better way to elevate the mood might be to have a bespoke cocktail bar with a mixologist shaking up concoctions. The concept of food trucks has gained much popularity in recent years for trendy couples who prefer a light-hearted setting, but they are more suited for outdoor events. There are also other factors, like licensing, to consider.
For wedding receptions in a ballroom space, consider food carts instead. Get creative and have them decorated to your theme. Deck them with a selection of your favourite treats, sweets and desserts, and all things pretty. Totally Instagram worthy!”
