Mini Taco and Lime Passed Appetizers

As foodies, a bland, boring menu was totally out of the question for Sara and Mark. The couple worked with Blue Plate Chicago to create an extensive East-meets-West menu that would appeal to all of their guests’ tastes. “We were determined that no one leave our wedding hungry,” says Sara. “We ended up deciding on stations, because we wanted a fun, interactive and varied menu and a traditional plated dinner just wasn’t going to give us that flexibility.” After two plated courses of salad and soup, guests were free to sample the mouth-watering offerings at the three dinner stations. They noshed on everything from Korean drunken chicken wings at the Bi Bim Bap station to smoked bacon mac n cheese at the bacon station and petite tenderloin with zinfandel mushroom sauce at the carving station.
