Trend Alert: Food Trucks

Now this is a fun idea. I will preface this post by saying this trend is definitely not very everyone, but for those on a budget, working with a remote location or those wanting to suprise their guests with a late night treat this could be a perfect solution.

Food Trucks. Travelling Chefs. Gourmet on Wheels. No matter what you call it, it's an innovative idea to cater a wedding. Mobile catering services are popping up everywhere in the US and it's only a matter of time before people start picking up on it here.

Brides and grooms are incorporating food trucks into their special day for different reasons. As a way to reduce costs on their catering bill, provide a snack for guests between the ceremony and reception,or as a treat at the end of the night. They're also a perfect solution for a backyard wedding, a wedding in a park or other locations lacking a kitchen.

It can also be viewed as an attractive option for keeping the event 'green'. Food trucks can offer local producers, minimal waste, and organic ingredients.

This concept would definitely be out of place at a black-tie event and is definitely not practical for an Orange winter wedding. But if you want a unique way to step up your between event scene, or a cute (and tasty) after-party option for guests this could be just the way to go.
