Well, besides the cupcake revolution, there is another reception option that is gaining popularity, which I personally think is cool, trendy and quite unexpected simply because it is such a nouvelle concept. (for a wedding reception that is ) FOOD TRUCKS and as it is popularly known "TACO TRUCKS!!!
Gourmet taco trucks , food trucks or mobile food eats have become very popular in the last year or so with the OTG (Off The Grid). Mobile eats and a few others organizing food truck events all over the bay area, where several food trucks are gathered giving the people several selections ranging from pizza, to banh mi, gourmet cupcakes to all ethnic versions of a taco.After talking to a few of the truck operators , I realized that these latest ventures are extensions of established catering companies that have taken to the road to reach a market yet untapped.
I just booked my first Food truck catered wedding reception next year and I couldn't be more excited and looking forward to it.
Should you consider the idea, the process I tell you could be fun and yummy. Best way to go about it is to research food truck events in an area near you. Sample dishes from trucks whose menu and food offerings appeal or intrigue you and believe me, you will not easily run out of food ideas and options.You might want to go to several, as there are many to choose from. Once you have selected your favorites, grab their card, call the office or visit their websites for more information. Some do full catering service and some can park their trucks at your reception venue where your guest can order, well, just ask for what they want. Nice huh?
Here are a few info in their own words..
