5 Ways Plastic Dinnerware Can Help Your Wedding Reception

A wedding reception is a once in a lifetime experience and you want to make sure to get everything perfect. Your family is there and everyone is expecting an amazing time, but regardless if it’s a party for 50 or 500 people make sure you take care of these aspects and everyone has plenty of fun.

Cocktails

There’s bound to be time before the food is served and everyone arrives to the reception hall from wedding venue. While everyone is waiting people to arrive, why not provide cocktails. Creating premade cocktails or a small menu of cocktails can help lighten the mood. If you’re making the cocktails yourself, then why not choose plastic martini glasses or other elegant glasses. You don’t have to worry about glasses breaking or washing them at the end of the night.

Appetizers

People will be hungry and it can be 30 minutes or more before the main meal is served. It takes time for people to go from the wedding venue to the reception area, so compliment the cocktails with delicious appetizers. You can have something classic and elegant or something inexpensive and quick. All that really matters is that people have a snack before being seated and enjoying the meal. You’ve got a lot on your mind and the last thing you want to worry about is appetizer plates. We have a variety of mini wedding plates and party plates to choose from.

Main Meal
