Definitely a raw bar. Sushi, crab legs, shrimp and oysters served atop a pagoda shaped ice sculpture. 
Question about a raw bar: Does it stink ... like get that fish smell? I know if its amazing quality/ fresh it wouldn't smell, but in my opinion, it all gives a smell ... even when it's fresh.
Does it give an overpowering smell?

I'm not sure what I would have, but I know my fiance would love lobster and filet mingion (can't remember how to spell)
Haha. OK. This is fun. I second the raw bar and add to it a sushi bar. TONS of seafood. And carpaccio. 
I up your filet mignon with Kobe beef. Hahaha. Instead of regular coffee and tea we'll have espressos, cappucinnos, etc. And cucumber water!
On a aside Ms HymanRoth, why don't you have your caterer send you a couple sample menus to get the juices flowing? Good Luck!
Oooh...love the idea of a raw bar. And then I would add a plate of filet/lobster. :) And of course, an elaborate delicious dessert bar, probably with ice cream, cupcakes, creme brulee...oh yum! :)
If money were no object, I'd probably have an entirely organic 6 or 7 course meal. For meat, bison and wild sockeye salmon. And lots of desserts - I love desserts. But I should stop thinking about this as it is making me hungry!
Why did the cucumber water just make me crave some BAD. It soo reminds me of spas..Burke Williams here I come
A couple pigs roasted in the ground with pineapple! Seriously, no joke. If I weren't getting married in March, this might be an option, but that would have to be a lot of pig to feed all of our guests (about 300 invited). Hopefully we'll get to do this for the rehearsal, maybe (again, in March).
App - French Onion Soup
Entree - Surf & Turf - Filet Mignon & Sushi
Dessert - NY Cheesecake or Flan
roasted rabbit with port and prunes,
wild elk filets braised with a blue-cheese chanterelle cream sauce,
cream of chanterelle soup (or) cream of artichoke soup (a la duarte's in the bay area)
organic wild greens salad with walnuts, raspberries, & a warm dijon/sherry vinaigrette
mmm... I want to cook dinner, now!!
Mmm now I'm hungry. Is Kobe beef really much better than filet mignon? How so? I really love a ribeye, not so much filet - though I know it's fancier!
Dessert is also my favorite!!!!!!!!!!!!
Check this out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kobe_beef
I've honestly never been to a restaurant nice (aka expensive!) enough to carry Kobe Beef. And rumour has it the Kobe Beef in the States is not actually the Kobe Beef as described in that wiki article because we are not in Japan! But I think some restaurants actually fly them in? The reason why it is so rare and expensive is the way the cows are raised. They are raised specifically to create Kobe Beef.
The FI is a huge meat person so he's always wanted to try Kobe Beef. We went to a restaurant last year for my bday that was suppose to have Kobe Beef but they didn't that night. 
So yeah I'm not saying it'll be everyone's cup of tea but I would say in terms of grades of meat it's probably a step or two up from a filet mignon.

Filet oscar (my fave), scallops, she crab soup, gourmet pizza and burger bar, fried cauliflower (my FI's favorite, i know, classy), an italian dessert buffet to include varieties of tiramisu, a martini bar, and a fancy cappuccino bar. Hmmmm. I totally feel like I'm forgetting something we both love, though. But that all sounds fun to me! Obviously this would be a buffet, though, so you could get whatever you want! Maybe the filet oscar would have to be smaller pieces...teehee. And she crab soup is just incredible! OR, i'd love to serve a really traditional southern dinner and have Paula Deen cater it What a nice nod to our history in Savannah, Georgia!
mmm. i'd love lots of sushi and seafood. and an ice sculpture that you can pour martinis through.
EJS4Y8, how can we have the same tastebuds? Lol. Now I'm dreaming of filet Oscar. I completely forgot about that dish!!! I love it! I plan to do an midnight "snack" thing .. a gourmet pizza/ burger bar sounds really cool!
I've never had she crab soup, but omg I love Paula Deen. Watching her on food network is my guilty pleasure!
I don't know what my dream menu would be exactly because we're getting a lot of what we want (fewer guests allowed for a better menu) If I knew everyone would eat it... I'd serve Lobster & chive fritters w/ seared sea scallops as a starter! Or hazelnut brie wontons!! Mmm....
A million course dinner by Thomas Keller at Per Se...with some polenta/olive oil pound cake from Babbo. Yummy!

If it were possible I'd have mini portions of everything FI and I love.
Spanish Food like pernil, arroz con pollo, Prime Rib/filet mignon, Italian Food , Sea Food (unltd supply of all kinds of shrimp) and the finest desserts you can imagine I have a huge sweet tooth!
oooh, I love this post! We would have lots of raw starters--tuna tartare in wonton cones, kobe carpaccio bruschetta bites, etc., then beet salad with goat cheese, then gnocchi with truffle gruyere cream sauce, then probably tarragon lamb and filet oscar (stole your ideas--it sounds so good!) and saffron risotto, then everyone would get a personal cheese plate as an after menu item, with the creamiest of creamy cow's milk cheeses and dried cherries and apricot marmalade, and then end with a trio of decadent desserts--something with apples and cinnamon and caramel, something with chocolate and raspberry, and something with lemon... and then cake!
Oh yeah, and then a late-night snack buffet with a gourmet burger bar and hot dog stand (with cream cheese and sauteed onions--a Seattle hot dog stand staple!).
I am pretty sure that this menu is totally mismatched from a culinary stand point, but I would LOVE to serve this at our wedding!
How about if tact were no object? I would so be serving roasted turkey legs at my reception. Like what you can get at the state fair. I swear those legs are one of the most delicious foods on this planet. Actually I still might serve them.
If price were no object, everyone would be getting prime rib.
kobe is definitely a different experience than fillet - it is amazing. i prefer a sirloin over a fillet, but kobe or better yet, wagyu beats everything. i am having a great menu - but i think if price were no object i would have an out of this world chef like thomas keller or daniel broussard.

I'm having a terrible time deciding on a menu, I have a lack of ideas! Thought it would be fun to think up a dream menu that we wish we could have!!!!!!
I would serve caviar. I love it. Not sure of an entire menu though.
Fiance says we shouldn't serve lots of heavy food b/c nobody will dance after dinner!
