If you’re having guests in from out of town, one of the best things you can do is show your guests the best of your town. This includes lots of local flair that will be memorable and exciting. Here are some great and fun local food ideas for your wedding reception.
Local Brewery
If your town has a local brewery, make sure you get some of their premium beer for your wedding. This can be poured by the bartender, or stacked in ice in attractive containers for guests to choose when they want. This is a fun way to introduce guests to some of your local culture.
