INEXPENSIVE IDEAS FOR A BACKYARD WEDDING?-FOOD AND ECT.

WE ARE HAVING A RECPETION AT A RELATIVE'S HOUSE. WE ARE TRYING TO CUT THE COST. WHAT TYPE OF FOOD DO YOU SERVE AT A BACK YARD EVENT?

Re: INEXPENSIVE IDEAS FOR A BACKYARD WEDDING?-FOOD AND ECT.

  • Any kind you want to.  What time of day will it be?  How formal do you want it to be?

    Also - typing in all caps is considered to be yelling.  Please don't yell at us.
  • Pulled pork and italian beef are common, and can be prepared ahead of time.

    ^ She has a ton of great ideas. Towards the end is the menu it should help out some. Hers was more informal but a really beautiful wedding.

  • How formal would you like the event?  If you want something extremely casual you can do hot dogs and hamburgers.  If you want something a bit more formal then you can grill chicken and steaks or even hire a restaurant to cater the affair (this can be fairly inexpensive).  It really all comes down to what type of wedding you are looking for and what time of day it will occur.

  • We are having Italian beef, and a white meat and a vegetarian option. Then some veggie trays, fruit trays, cheese ball, and things like that (haven't worked out all the sides yet).

  • Well, it's your wedding so whatever you want and you feel your guests will love. 

    For cost cutting, have a pasta bar (different types of pasta, hot and cold). And various types of salad. Garlice bread or dinner loaf.

  • Taco bar! Inexpensive, and who doesn't like tacos? easy to do for vegetarians too.
