MemberHas anyone done a comfort food reception or plan on doing one? (ESPECIALLY in the Tampa or just anywhere in Florida area)…any ideas or vendors you know of?
Similar to this example, from a company in Cali..

MemberComfor t foods sound wonderful and folks are more likely to eat that than fancy stuff that is served just because it’s a wedding.
Look into local restaurants and see who offers catering. Most of them will be cheaper than a regular wedding caterer. Also, browse the vendor reviews section at http://projectwedding.com for suggestions on places to look into. Some caterers will only serve what is on their pre-existing menus and others will customize whatever you want so don’t be afraid to ask them if they can make a menu judt for you. Make sure to get a tasting before you book them though.
Membernot exactly comfort food, but we did southern fare which is kinda comfort food to me…nom
Memberi’m doing a pretty southern menu in tampa, my caterer is circles cafe and theyre AMAZING. they have all kinds of dishes they’ll work with you on, are reasonably priced and delicious, and have fantastic customer service
MemberWe’re hoping to do a comfort food station, with Mac & Cheese and crabcakes (Maryland, ’nuff said) and maybe coconut shrimp and some kind of comfort veggie dish (I’m thinking brocolli with cheddar cheese). I would like to serve either a classic Cesar salad or a tomato or roasted red pepper soup. We have a set list of caterers we can use, so we’ve been contacting them about this and for the most part they have been very kind/accomodating.
MemberIt’s not the most typical comfort food, but we’re having a NY Deli station at our reception…
Lean corned beef sandwiches stacked high with swiss cheese, relish, sauerkraut, and thousand island dressing
hebrew national hot dogs
potato knishes
a selection of deli mustards and kosher pickles
sliced rye and pumpernickel loaves
MemberMemberMemberGilneas, can I come? I grew up on all that stuff. YUM!
MemberGilneas, that sounds fantastic!!! Are you having that all catered in or are you DIY? Just curious…we are probably going to do our wedding at the lake so I am looking for something very laid back and easy…I thought BBQ but decided against that when I remembered how much I love my dress…and how many kids would be in attendance. YIKES! Icksnay on the arbecue-bay!!
