Wedding Trends for 2013

With summer zooming at us at record speed, weddings are much on our mind. After all, we’ll be spending a lot of the summer months deeply involved in many aspects of the various weddings we’ll have the honor of catering. And of course, Foodisma’s part is always food, but -- inevitably -- we’re called upon for various matters relating to that special day.

In food trends, like a lot of caterers, this year we’re going to be doing more stand-up weddings than ever before. As a result the Foodisima test kitchen has been busy concocting new ways for wedding couples and their guests to have an elegant and satisfying wedding meal, cleverly disguised as a cocktail party.

Outside of the food, we find other trends interesting, as well. For instance, this article at iPhoto outlines visual wedding trends for this year. And from what we’re seeing with the wedding couples we’re talking to right now, this is a terrific example of current trends: the bright pastels, various threads of vintage and rustic (not necessarily together!) and perfectly executed whimesy. (Think Eloise in Paris or Dr. Seuss… with fewer hats!)

And, remember: if you’re going to be using Foodisima to cater your wedding, (this year or any other!) keep us looped in as you go through your own process of design. As much as possible, we’ll work with your colors and motif to help you create an entirely magical and memorable day.
