From gin and tonic flavoured teas to mini pancakes and sandwiches to macaroons and mini cakes- the food can look so good that it can double up as decor too.

Think cheese boards, but wayyy fancier, and a lot more! Imagine a massive, marvelous table artfully heaped with meats, cheeses, breads, antipasti, fresh fruits and crudité. Grazing tables—where guests can pick and choose what they want throughout the night are becoming very popular, especially so if it's a less formal affair!
Beer/ Wine Tasting

DIY counters are getting more and more popular, be it for chaat or even dessert. Whether the guests have to assemble their own golgappa (or vodka golgappa), some other chaat, paan or even add their fave toppings to pizzas or desserts, these are stations where they can customise their dishes according to their liking!
Brunch Weddings

A wedding vibe like that of a chilled out Sunday brunch? Yes please! Brunch weddings are the new reality post COVID, and we love the whole concept for an intimate wedding! Thanks to the dwindling availability of Saturday nights, a lavish brunch buffet with creative food ideas like fried chicken and waffles, biscuit sliders, breakfast tacos and donuts is a great idea. You could also have daytime drinks like Sangrias, Mimosas and artisanal beer plus some live music and you're all set!
Indulging in local cuisine

2022 is going to be all about experiences. A food experience is also something that your guests will enjoy, especially if they are game for experimenting with food! If you're having a destination wedding at an exotic location, go local with the food. Give them a taste of the locally available food, especially if it is popular and yum!
