The first big choice to make about your catering at your wedding in Malta is how you want to serve your guests. To help you figure out the best service style for your wedding, we’re looking at each available method and breaking them down for you.
Formal meals aren’t the traditional choice for weddings in Malta anymore, but that doesn’t mean that it’s no longer a viable option. Wedding caterers will usually offer menus of 3-5 courses, which your guests will choose from beforehand (typically alongside their RSVP).
1. Formal Wedding Reception = Control
With seated meals, everyone gets served at the same time. You can spread out each course over the duration of your wedding reception to make time for things like toasts and dances.
This will help keep your guests engaged and maintain an energy that flows naturally throughout the evening.
2. Don’t Conform to Tradition
We’ve mentioned the traditional way of serving your guests at their seats, but there is another way of going about this.
More commonly known as ‘family-style‘, it’s a sort of amalgamation of a buffet and table service. Basically, each table has a number of meals spread over platters in accordance to the number of guests per table. Everyone is then able to help themselves to as much or as little as they like.
3. Intimacy
Formal dinners are much more intimate, and are a great way to include everyone in the fun at the same time.
Many couples fear that seated receptions interfere with the scheduling of the day, but we think it’s just simply not true. Live your best wedding life, not everyone else’s.
