Had I even thought about a different venue or a different alternative, I totally would have been behind this latest trend. I think it rocks and has such huge potential to replace that late night buffet or even for a more casual wedding, the entire catering menu.
Specialty and Gourmet Food trucks are quickly taking street food to unparalleled new heights. And I think that's naturally translating into new and unique re-purposing of the food truck into situations they've never ventured before. Namely the modern wedding.
Imagine, instead of spending $700 on a tiered cake and all the ornamental details that go with it, spending $500 or $600 on an ice cream truck that pops by and sets up for an hour outside your venue at 10pm on a hot July or August night.
Imagine replacing the dessert buffet at 10 pm with gourmet poutine and a hot dog. Everyone knows that the more you drink the more you want something greasy to help it all settle properly. No one goes on a bender and says, hey let's hit Cora's for their fresh fruit crepes! They say, find me the nearest street meat/taco bell/pizza joint you find! I think bringing the street meat and upscaling it to fit with the opulence and indulgence of a wedding is a fantabulous, most wonderful and amazing thing EVER!
