Cocktail parties back in vogue with adelaide finger food

Tuesday, January 25, 2011 @ 09:24 AM

Jessica Veale, Chief Events Co-ordinator with leading Sydney caterer All Suburbs Catering says that Cocktail parties seem to be having a renaissance these days. While their heyday took place in the 50s, it’s hard to believe they ever truly went out of style.

The cocktail party is a perfect way of entertaining for occasions as diverse as a casual after work get together to a glamourous Melbourne Cup party.

You can serve cocktails and hors d’oeuvres as a prelude to a dinner party but they will also stand on their own, simply start your party after the dinner hour, or alternately have a short happy hour gathering after work. A nice finishing touch to an evening cocktail party is a dessert buffet and a selection of coffee and teas. A variation of this is the after theatre cocktail party in which a variety of coffee drinks, such as Irish Coffee, are served along with a selection of desserts. All Suburbs Catering provide great cocktail party catering for all kinds of parties.

If you are planning a celebration or function in the near future then why not give Jessica a call on 1800 253 329 – she would be more than happy to give you all the advice you need to make your party a fabulous hit.

In most cases catering is the largest expense of a wedding but this varies with how many guests you have. The cost of your wedding reception includes the food, beverages, waiters, kitchen staff, rentals, decorations, and the cost of hiring the venue itself.

Why not try www.mrfingerfood.com.au for your finger food wedding catering.

Receptions don’t always have to be held at dinner time, you might find that choosing a different time of day for your reception will result in a significant saving. Below are some suggestions and ideas for alternative receptions:

  • Tea receptions are held between 2-4 pm. You can serve things such as canapes, finger sandwiches, tea, scones, pastries and a variety of cheeses. For ideas try www.mrfingerfood.com.au
  • A Simple Cake and Punch Reception is perfect if your reception is not during a normal mealtime. Mid morning or mid afternoon is ideal. You can also include candies, cookies, and nuts to the menu. Include a Cake and Punch Reception Following Ceremony on your invitations and this inform guests ahead of time not to expect a full meal.
  • A cocktail reception might include passed trays of food as well as small stations with finger food. Be sure to have to have plenty of napkins, plates, cutlery and seating on hand to avoid messy dining. Be clear in your invitation that the reception will include cocktails and hors d’oeuvres only. The receptions finale will be the cake-cutting ceremony and coffee service, which can be supplemented by after-dinner drinks and petits fours.
  • A hors d’oeuvres reception is takes place between 11am-5pm or after an evening wedding. As the name suggests, you would serve light finger foods such as chips and dips, fruit and vegetable platters, cheeses, and crackers. You can also include meat and cheese trays, shrimp cocktails, oysters, egg rolls, sausages, chicken wings, and tea sandwiches. See www.mrfingerfood.com.au for inexpensive options.
  • Decadent Dessert Receptions are held from 1- 4pm or after an evening wedding. Serve an extensive assortment of rich desserts such as cheese cakes, tarts, tortes, cookies, pies, cakes, pastries, cobblers, biscotti, ice cream, sundaes, and candies. Serve coffee, tea, and other beverages.
