You’ve said ‘I do’ and tied the knot, the first dance is done and the sappy speeches are over. The evening turns into a party, you’re working up a sweat, and the caterers have packed everything away. What can you serve when your guests are feeling a bit peckish? Here are a few snacks that your guests will love.
There are a few things to keep in mind when deciding on what snacks to serve:
- Are your guests older and more mature or younger and hip?
- What’s the vibe like? Is it more sophisticated and elegant or is it chilled and laid back?
- Dietary requirements. For example, it might be awkward to only serve pizza slices when someone is lactose intolerant. So it’s important to cater your snacks as you would for you dinner catering.
When you have your answers you’ll be able to customise your snack table accordingly.
Pizza=Life
Serve up tasty slices of pizza or have mini ones available. It’s simple and not too messy. Pizza is also a massive crowd-pleaser.
Spill the corn
Opt for ready-made mini boxes or have a machine and a self-help option. Don’t forget the spices! What’s popcorn without flavour?

A cop’s dream
Can anyone say doughnuts? Mini, holes or custom packaged boxes! The options are endless and so are the flavours!
Not your usual burgers and chips
Serve up some sliders with a couple of chips. Serving these tiny burgers makes it easy enough for your guests to eat and leaves them totally satisfied.
Chopsticks and noodles
Who doesn’t love chow mein? Set out cute Asian take-away boxes with chopsticks. Whatever your guests don’t eat, they can close up and take home.
Cookies and cream
You can have mini cookies laid out with milk in shot glasses. Serve a few options of cookies so your guests can mix and match. Set out cute packets so your guests can take some home as well.
I love candy
Candy bars are always popular. Provide packets or mini buckets so your guests can make a candy pack to take with them.
