The Menu

I just realized that it is probably cruel to post the menu right before lunch time. I know that I am already hungry but now I am starving after reading through our menu options. Our caterers are Thomas Caterers of Distinction. I wasn't really that excited about the tasting and didn't really care what was selected since we had no choice in the caterer (shame on me, I know). After going through the tasting my entire perception has changed!!! I think I didn't care because I didn't really expect any catered food to be that impressive (future hubby and I are kind of food snobs) but I ended up having a blast. In the end I thought the food was great and our event planner at the catering company, Dee, was phenomenal! So here goes with the menu:

• Hors D'oeurves:
• Shrimp shooter with cocktail sauce or a creole remoulade sauce

• Nori roll with duck, sushi rice, wasabi aioli and pickled ginger on a wonton chip
• Fontina risotto ball with a roasted red pepper marinara (fancy mac and cheese)

• Grilled garden pizza with assorted vegetables, olive oil, and jack cheese
• Salad:
• Strawberry Salad - field greens with a sweet balsamic vinaigrette garnished with fresh strawberries and macadamia nuts
• Dinner:
• Sugar snap peas
• Savoyarde potatoes with Gruyere cheese and onions (absolutely delish!)
• Roast tenderloin of beef and boneless breast of chicken with a Rosemary demi-glaze
• Dessert:
• Wedding Cake (obviously) - chocolate, white, and sour cream strawberry
• Grooms Cake - Fun Fetti (future hubby is going to LOVE this)
• Strawberries dipped in chocolate
• Lolipop cheesecake balls dipped in chocolate (haven't decided on what flavor of cheesecake we are going with yet)

• Chocolate mousse ganache in a chocolate bowl

And there you have it! This is our menu. Everything tasted fabulous and I hope that our guests feel the same way! I don't see how anyone could leave our wedding hungry with all the food that we are having! :-)

The chocolate covered strawberries was a MUST HAVE for me! Was/is there any menu items for your wedding that was/is a must have for you?

I am only 3 months out but I guess it still hadn't hit me that I really am getting married really soon. Last night did it for me! It totally hit me that I am getting married very soon!!!! Between the dress fitting and the tasting I am now completely aware that I am marrying the man of my dreams in 94 days and counting!!!! Did this happen to you? When did it really hit you?

Okay, I know that I still have 2 hours before lunch but I am hungry now! So, I am off to go find some food!
