Ideas for your 2025 wedding menu

Planning a wedding is about curating experiences that celebrate love, togetherness, and, of course, exceptional food. Your wedding menu is a focal point that you want both you and your guests to be talking about for years to come. From traditional sit-down meals to vibrant good station or sharing experiences, we’re here to make it happen. Here are some of our favourite creative wedding menu ideas to make your big day truly unforgettable.

Our top 5 wedding menu ideas for 2025

1. Interactive food stations

Interactive food stations are a fun and engaging way to cater to a variety of tastes. Guests can customise their meals, ensuring everyone finds something they love. Popular options include:

• DIY Taco Bars: Freshly made tortillas with an array of fillings, from spicy pulled pork to smoky jackfruit for vegan guests. Togather suppliers like El Camino offer authentic, vibrant flavours perfect for these setups.

• Gourmet Burger Bars: Mini sliders with a range of toppings such as caramelised onions, blue cheese, and avocado add a casual yet sophisticated touch.

These stations not only provide delicious food but also encourage mingling among your guests, creating a lively atmosphere. They’re very popular for wedding evening food already, but we love it for the main meal at a more casual wedding too!

2. Global cuisine

Celebrate the diversity of flavours with a menu that takes your guests on a culinary journey. Togather's suppliers specialise in a range of cuisines, including:

• Italian Feast: Fresh, indulgent pasta dishes and colourful antipasti from suppliers like Terra Trattoria 

• Indian Fusion: Delight your guests with a modern twist on traditional Indian dishes. Spice Club Roadshow are a West Midlands based Indian caterer offering delicious street food classics like Samosa Chaat - as well as bespoke menus for big days. 

• Japanese-Inspired Delights: Sushi platters, tempura bites, and ramen stations create a refined and visually stunning menu.

This approach adds an adventurous twist to your wedding while honouring your personal or family heritage. Even better - combine two or more different cuisines for a fusion twist.

3. Seasonal and locally-sourced menus

A farm-to-table menu not only supports local businesses but also ensures your dishes are fresh and sustainable. Many caterers will be able to advise seasonal ingredients according to your wedding date, offering menus that reflect the best of the season. Picture a spring wedding with vibrant salads, herb-crusted lamb, and rhubarb tarts, or a winter celebration featuring hearty soups, roast venison, and spiced desserts.

4. Grazing tables

Perfect for drinks receptions or as a centrepiece for relaxed celebrations, grazing tables are as visually stunning as they are delicious. Suppliers such as Bart’s Table craft elaborate spreads featuring:

• Artisanal cheeses and cured meats

• Seasonal fruits and vegetables

• Freshly baked bread and gourmet dips

These tables can cater to dietary restrictions and provide a fantastic focal point for photographs.

5. Decadent desserts

End your wedding on a sweet note with unique dessert options that go beyond the traditional wedding cake. Consider:

• Interactive Dessert Bars: Guests can personalise their treats at a doughnut wall, cupcake decorating station, or build-your-own ice cream sundae bar.

• Chic Alternatives to Cake: Cheese towers, macaron pyramids, or croquembouche add a sophisticated flair.

For couples with a flair for nostalgia, Togather's supplier Scoop & Swirl offers vintage ice cream carts, bringing a touch of whimsy to your celebration.

Top Tips for a Memorable Wedding Menu

• Tailor to Your Theme: Match your menu to the vibe of your wedding. A rustic barn wedding pairs well with sharing style plates or, in winter, hearty comfort foods, while a black-tie affair calls for elegant plated courses. Our suppliers will work with you to design a menu that fits you and your day perfectly. 

• Offer Variety: Catering to dietary needs and preferences (vegan, gluten-free, etc.) ensures all your guests feel welcome - and doesn’t mean compromising on flavour. 

• Presentation Matters: Stunning food presentation enhances the dining experience and creates photo-worthy moments.
