Late Night Snack Idea

I am getting married June 2 - my fiance and i want to add a "late night snack" to our menu, what are some good ideas? I found a few online but nothing really stick out. We are having a buffett and a candy table and of course the cookie/desserts.

    We're having a late night snack of milkshakes with a brownie garnish and french fries with ketchup. We may have some sliders, still debating that. 

    I think since you're already doing candy and desserts you should try to do a salty snack option. I've seen people just order a bunch of pizza from a local pizza place, bring in McDonalds cheeseburgers, have fries, mini grilled cheeses, etc.

    I like the french fries idea.  You could have sweet potato fries, onion rings, and french fries, if you wanted to go beyond just plain fries.

    At one wedding soft pretzels were a big hit.  At another delivery of a local burger joint (In & Out maybe)   At another wedding milkshake shots(chocolate, vanilla and strawberry) and chocolate chip cookies/oatmeal cookies

    We are having a late night snak/snake shack. Our caterers are providing items such as mac & cheese in little melting pots, mini burgers, those chocolate lollips, french fries etc. I had never even thought of it till our caterers mentioned it haha

    I LOVE the fry idea!!  I went to a wedding where they gave you hot pretzels as you were exiting the building.

    What about popcorn??

    We're doing hot dogs and fries, an homage to some of our first dates.

    Chicken, fish, grilled cheese and/or burger sliders
    fries
    mac-n-chesse
    mini-hotdogs
    pizzas








    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.

    Im a little stumped on this idea as well, I am having a Gluten free wedding (aside from serving beer) its important that ALL the food served is GF and I cant think of what will be a crowd pleaser-we are doing a sweets table but thats not going to be enough when the clock strikes drunk o' clock and my guests need a little something in their tummys to mop up the booze.

    I think french fries, mini grilled cheese, pizza rolls or even mini pigs in a blanket would be a great idea! Keep it finger food snack size and comfort food-ish and im sure it will be a hit!!

    I went to a wedding and the late night snack was mini chicago dogs in little hot dog buns w/ all the toppings, mini deep dish pizzas, mini big macs, mini tacos etc. it was really cute that they mocked all the "fast" food chains!

    Thanks for all the cool ideas! I think we will be doing the sliders and pizza since we will have all types of sweets

    <div>French fries should work, as long as they are not breaded.  </div>
