Perhaps there is no other sincere love other than the love for good food. While you and your partner may disagree, your guests will be eager to fill their tummies with palate treats. A little menu planning together with your Long Island wedding caterer can woo the crowd. Here are tantalizing tips for you to come up with a memorable menu that will leave your guests wanting for more.

Dream your menu theme or style. One of the most exciting parts of developing your theme is planning the menu. From the spicy Southern barbeque to the classic New England clambake. Themed menus create exciting, memorable and fun events. You can also leave a statement by making your guests eat uniquely. This could be nibbling satay on a Thai inspired reception, cracking crabs on a riverside or perhaps roasting mallows on a campsite.

Go regional. Make your banquet a culinary vacation by creating menus that feature specialties. It can be the Buffalo spicy chicken wings, Hudson Valley's foie de gras and even Wisconsin's biggest cheese spread.

Food is an entertainment. Food is something that doesn't only please your palate. Devise a menu where preparation is as flavorful and fun as the food itself. Get a sushi bar with a chef showcasing how sushi is made. You can also have a French chef completely donned with a hat and apron who creates flaming crepes right before your very eyes. Find a professional Long Island wedding caterer that can pull it off!

Ride with a new trend. Trends are made to come and go and if you get to chance to jump over one even before it is passé, then good for you. Perhaps your partner has this unique idea that will create this statement that you are looking for. It can also be something as homey as a simple mashed potato bar with an array of toppings and spuds served in martini glasses. It can also be a Heavenly Belgian treat that showcases pomme frittes with mayo in paper cones. 

Make it a honeymoon teaser. Don't fret! We are not suggesting any X rated ideas here. We just want you to consider creating a menu based on your planned honeymoon destination. If you are planning to do it in Venice, then serve your guests a menu that will make them feel that they are feasting in a gondola. If you're thinking about Japan, try a Tepanyaki or Japanese barbecue station.
