You may already in the middle of planning your winter wedding, reception and getaway for active winter fun. If so then, lucky you, you are already half way there. Your family and friends are ready for respective bridesmaids and groomsmen roles, the cold-weather equipped wedding dress is perfect and you’re sewing up the loose ends for the ceremony, the reception, the food and the party.

For a great reception in a scenic winter locale, try out the following food suggestions and party-related tips for the biggest day of your life.

Choose a great restaurant

You and your husband-to-be have undoubtedly dined out in your courtship and know a great meal when you’ve eaten one. If you’re bringing your wedding party to a scenic location, make sure the food is as gorgeous and delicious.

If you’re seeking wholesome comfort food fare, find the restaurant in your location with the most highly-rated online reviews from actual diners. There’s delicious, and then there’s DELICIOUS! For example, if you’re looking for the best Italian food in Sedona, AZ, you’ll know to look at Yelp.com and TripAdvisor.com for a suitable place, based on user reviews.

Make the food special

Definitely consider using some of the chosen area’s local ingredients, even if winter has hindered their supply. Locally grown produce and products can be part of your wedding party’s overall experience, and with a little creativity, can become the highlight of the dinner.

You might also consider asking for a specially made dish at the venue for you and your wedding guests. Perhaps you and your man want to share his long-past grandmother’s favorite lasagna or meat dish recipe. Having your favorite restaurant make the family recipe can add a very special touch to the wedding reception, and certainly bring the family together on this joyous occasion.

Offer three portion tasting plates

One of the current food trends that might translate well to your wedding party might be to offer a meat, seafood or chicken option to your guests, to give them a taste of all three delicious items. The portions would naturally come smaller, but your guests will be delighted with the options and the server’s job will become much easier.

Special diet options?

Some of your wedding guests may require a special dietary meal or a dish that is gluten-free. Hopefully, your guest will alert you to this before your big day, and you will be able to coordinate with your restaurant of choice if anyone requires a meal that’s vegetarian, gluten-free or some other iteration.

Maybe this great Italian restaurant you’ve chosen already has a delicious special diet meal that they can offer, instead of just throwing something together. Talk with your restaurant staff about the needs for your guests, and watch them perform some magic!
