Catering Mexican: Traditional

When we talk about a traditional banquet, we don’t mean that you offer common dishes, by no means! but that the way you serve and present the food sticks to what is common to observe in wedding ceremonies. A traditional menu is composed of different times and is the ideal choice if your wedding will be a classic or romantic event. You can take advantage of the time of the banquet, which lasts about an hour and a half, to have some music or a special show. 

Consider in your wedding plan the time of day when planning your catering menu mexican food. The basic rule is that if your wedding will be in the morning, the best thing to do is to offer five courses; while if your wedding will be in the afternoon, the ideal is to offer four courses; and finally, if your wedding will be at night, you can offer three courses. Budget and desired elegance also play a role in the decision-making process.

The event time influences food choices. For early events, opt for fresh dishes like fruit salad or cold yogurt soup. Consider the location’s associations too; beach weddings call for seafood, while Hacienda weddings in Merida evoke lime soup. Offer a fusion menu for versatility and to please all guests.

Mexican catering food: Buffet

The wedding buffet catering is ideal if you want a slightly more relaxed wedding, but keeping a bit of a table-sitting style. The main advantage is that your guests are served what they want as many times as they wish for, which usually ends in pure happiness for them. If you offer a buffet-style banquet, you can also play with the combination of flavors and presentations. You can even offer dishes that are prepared on the spot so your guests enjoy watching them being prepared. 

With this option, you can combine Mexican wedding food that are in tune, so that the offer is varied but uniform. This way your friends and family will try everything and in the end, they will choose their favorites. For your wedding in Merida offer a balanced menu with Yucatecan and traditional mexican wedding food.

Our suggested menu: 

  • Lime soup (a must!), cochinita pibil, rice (you can add fried plantain as a topping), papadzules, stuffed cheese, carnitas, tinga, pico de gallo and complements such as a variety of sauces, tortillas and beans. 
  • For dessert you can choose different typical sweets: Yucatan mazapan, sweet potato paste, flan, churros, ice cream, alegrías, pumpkin paste and palanquetas. 

  

 

Mexican party catering: Coctel

A cocktail-style menu is a party that doesn’t stop. For this type of banquet what you offer your guests are snacks and canapés, so while they talk, dance, make new friends or drink, they are at the same time enjoying small bites of flavor. A menu made basically of canapés offers many options, since you can choose different combinations, textures, and presentations without investing too much of your budget. 

 If you choose this option, the wedding catering services can combine the snacks with the different cocktails you offer, so that when they mix you create a banquet that is unforgettable and delicious ideal for a lounge-style wedding, young and carefree.

 

Our menu suggestion: 

  •  Ceviche with guacamole; crab, eggplant, cheese, smoked salmon, oyster and fine herbs tapas; Mexican canapés: mini pambazos, sopesitos, taquitos de cochinita pibil, smoked tuna toasts and cazuelitas de rajas. 
  • Dessert: small glasses of chocolate mousse, ice cream, and fruit tarts and a Mexican wedding cake

If you decide to travel to Yucatan Mexico for your destination wedding, we recommend that you invite your closest friends to the menu test, so that you will have a second opinion and spend unique moments with your close ones before the wedding. 

In the end, choose what best suits your style and fits your budget. And do not forget that sometimes all we need is something simple but that has an unforgettable detail in it.
