Eat, Drink and Be Married

Innovative passed hors d’oeuvres can provide a quality, budget-friendly alternative to a sit-down dinner. Taking a more creative approach to culinary and imaginative presentation truly impresses guests. For instance, the Quail Vesuvio served in a mini white china skillet or the Lobster Thermidor on a miso spoon is a delightful surprise for your guests.

When your guests taste the sweet potato off the chrome tasting spoon they’ll be sure to ask about the secret ingredient–homemade marshmallows!

No matter what your culinary vision happens to be, Blue Plate’s experienced culinary team can help you do it with style!!

Thank you SO much to Blue Plate for guest blogging on Style Me Pretty!!

Next, Blue Plate is offering tips on choosing just the right venue…oh, and make sure to scroll to the bottom for a quick but easy SMP request!

How to Choose the Perfect Venue

As you know, picking a reception location is one of the biggest decisions you will have to make; the venue sets the tone and theme. Just like the wedding specialists at Blue Plate can guide you to a venue that perfectly complements your needs and desires, you should always check with your vendors to see what their favorite venues are…

For instance, one of the wedding consultants from Blue Plate recently guided a bride and groom through an array of venue choices, ranging from intimate gardens, historic museums, grand ballrooms, and iconic restaurant locations.

The wedding consultant fully understands budgetary limitations and can lead you to your perfect location with budget conscious options.

More from Blue Plate to come! In the meantime, we’d love to hear what YOUR favorite hometown wedding venue is…whether it’s a gorgeous farm, a stunning hotel, an old loft…anything goes!

We really don’t write about catering ideas as much as we should here on Style Me Pretty…the creativity and innovation that you can infuse through the food that you serve, is pretty unbelievable. So, I am really happy that our next guest blogger, Blue Plate Catering, is offering up some tips and ideas for the best wedding food…

A Modern, Fresh Wedding Theme from Blue Plate

Creatively weave your theme into every aspect of your wedding–from décor and atmosphere to your choice of menu. A dedicated wedding consultant can help you make your vision and theme a reality. You don’t have to jet to the east coast to experience a Cape Cod wedding. This eastern, sea shore wedding took place in Chicago and was created by Weddings by Blue Plate.

An underwater experience was created with Lucite tables at the head table and food stations, courtesy of our friends at Kehoe Designs.

The modern Cape Cod affair inspired the menu–small plate samplers and stations. In a tribute to the New England style, guests tasted Cumin Crusted Diver Scallops, Seared Halibut and Red and Yellow Beets.

YUM!! More from Blue Plate throughout the day!
