Weddings can be some of the most beautiful experiences a family can have. People of all ages come together to laugh with friends and loved ones, smile for photographers and dine on delicious food and enjoy tasty drinks. If you are a wedding coordinator or banquet manager, you can supplement all the best qualities of this special event by adding a little bit of your own style to the party. One of the most attractive settings you can create for weddings is a dessert table loaded with confectionery treats like decadent tarts, creamy cakes and many different kinds of sugary concoctions arranged on any one of Rosseto Serving Solutions’ buffet riser systems. Here are a few ideas to help you get started:
Add a little glow
Create an atmosphere of warmth, gentleness and love by adding strategically placed candles amidst your dessert table. You can choose to set them up in a freestanding manner, but you should be cautious of people bumping into the table. If you do decide to go the freestanding route, consider using candles that have a very wide base. Your best option, however, is to place your candles in lanterns. Not only will they prevent fires from spreading, but if your party is outside, they will prevent wind from blowing out the flames every five seconds.
Display some luxury
If you have a sizeable budget to work with, you can really bring a level of decadence to the dessert table that guests will never forget. Sure, bits of candy and brownies from the box might please some people, but those manufactured sweets can never equal the experience of quality desserts. Consider adding confectionery treats like tiramisu brownies, salted caramel dark chocolate cookies, vanilla and sour cream cake and triple chocolate coffee cupcakes.
Specialize in just one treat
While some newly wedded couples might like the idea of a large assortment of delicious desserts, others might like to focus on items they love. If you find yourself working with this type of couple, suggest that their dessert table specialize in one treat with multiple variations. One route you can choose is gourmet cupcakes. Although every cupcake has the same components, you can mix and match in a near-endless number of combinations. Start off with five different types of cupcakes as your base. Consider including a wide variety of frosting and add different bowls of fruit and other toppings to create a comprehensive cupcake experience for your clients’ guests.
