Fantastic Fruit Desserts for a Summer Wedding

If you're planning a summer wedding, you might not want a rich, heavy dessert. When the weather's warm, a fruit dessert is the perfect choice.

One choice that is a perfect sweet finger food is chocolate dipped strawberries. With a mix of white, milk, and dark chocolate, your guests will love this elegant yet refreshing treat.

Another great fruit dessert idea is to offer grilled fruit kebabs. This is a wonderful twist on a basic fruit salad and can look beautiful on a plate. Serve this with a small touch of a luxurious ice cream for the perfect light dessert that your guests will love.

For a dessert that brings in fruit without being all fruit, consider a selection of pies and fruit tarts. Your guests can be served individual fruit tartlets or choose slices of larger pies. Either way, it's a tasty and wonderful dessert option.

Groom's Cakes Are a Great Addition to Your Wedding Menu

The tradition of the groom's cake might date back to Victorian times, but they've been growing in popularity over the past few years, particularly here in Southern California. The idea behind them is that they offer a chance for the groom to have a cake that suits his taste. It can also be decorated to reflect his hobbies.

A groom's cake can actually be any type of dessert. Cheesecakes are a favorite choice for many grooms, but it is also very common to choose a different flavor of cake or even a fruit dessert.

The groom's cake can be served at the same time as the wedding cake, as a smaller late-night treat, or even before the wedding at the rehearsal dinner. Whenever it's served, it's important to choose a delicious dessert that will taste as great as it looks.

The Perfect Southern California Wedding Brunch

Wedding brunches are hugely popular, and with good reason. Many couples prefer to have an earlier wedding, and a brunch is the perfect meal to serve earlier in the day. It also offers plenty of room for creativity in your menu, and is one of everybody's favorite special meals.

Combining breakfast and lunch favorites gives you lots of flexibility. You can serve soft carnitas tacos alongside a vegetable omelette. These savory dishes can work perfectly next to sweeter choices, such as pancakes, waffles, or fresh fruit salad.

No brunch is complete without drinks, though. A mimosa is a brunch standard, as is a bloody Mary. But don't stop there! Champagne cocktails are perfect with brunch, and ideal for a wedding. For non-drinkers, a sparkling fresh fruit punch can be special without the alcohol.

Of course, you'll want to serve something extra special for your wedding day. Why not think about something with a real flair that will wow your guests? We love coming up with the perfect menu for San Diego weddings, bringing together traditional dishes and fresh, contemporary touches.
