Weddings at Aspire: 2011 Food Trends (Desserts)

22 Feb

Aspire has become quite the spot for hosting a sophisticated, and stylish yet fun wedding in downtown Providence. While our space and decor may bring them in, our food cements the deal. Executive Chef Robbie and Banquet Chef Jori and their masterful pack of cuisiniers produce eye-popping and mouth-watering feasts for our meticulous brides and grooms. Just like fashion (in the words of the stunning Heidi Klum “One day you’re in and the next you’re out!”) and so many brides when planning their big day want food that is pleasing and of-the-moment. With that understanding Aspire seeks to be fixed on the course of diligent trend awareness, and while we’re at it, start a few trends of our own…

Mini Snacks: Many couples are now skipping the large traditional cake in favor of multiple types of small treats.

“Giant towers of fresh strawberries, croquembouche, and even wedding pies
are all great ways to celebrate the moment! Also popular [for 2011],
mini snacks served on the dance floor as guests are partying,
small shot glasses of custards, mini churros with warm chocolate, you name it!”
– Karen Bussen (Celebrity wedding planner)

Aspire’s Wedding Planning Team of Rhonda English and Sarah Potenza will help you match your after dinner treats to your theme, as Desserts are easily manipulated to keep with the color palette of your wedding. Other fun small bite ideas are Cake Bite Pops, Mini Cheesecakes, Chocolate Fountains with dozens of dipping options, and Candy Displays can bring whimsy to your event.

Quick Tip: You can hire a food truck to swing by for your reception. Like http://www.sugarushtruck.com/
