Hey there, future Mr. and Mrs. (or Ms. and Ms.!), planning your dream shaadi? Congratulations! Now, let’s talk about the most important part (besides saying “I do,” obviously) – the FOOD!
We all know an Indian wedding is practically a food festival. But with so many options, from your grandma’s secret recipes to that fancy fusion pani puri you saw on Instagram, where do you even begin? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Here’s your ultimate guide to the top wedding foods for your Indian marriage function, without burning a hole in your sherwani (or lehenga) pocket!
Crowd-Pleasing Classics:
Let’s start with the ol’ reliables, the dishes that guarantee happy bellies and satisfied relatives. We’re talking about the butter chicken that melts in your mouth, the dal makhani that’s creamy perfection, and the jeera rice that soaks up all that delicious gravy. Vindoos, your friendly neighborhood caterers (wink wink), can whip up these classics with the freshest ingredients, making sure your aunties go home raving about the “ghar ka khana” vibes.
Regional Delights:
India’s a land of diverse flavors, so why not reflect that in your menu? South Indian weddings wouldn’t be complete without a spread of fluffy dosas and tangy sambar. Going Bengali? Kosha mangsho (mutton curry) and ilish machher shondesh (Hilsa fish in a creamy gravy) are a must! No matter your heritage, Vindoos can create a customized menu that celebrates your family’s special dishes.
Vegetarian Vibes:
Vegetarian weddings are becoming increasingly popular, and there’s no shortage of delicious options! Paneer tikka masala is a crowd-favorite, and malai kofta with its melt-in-your-mouth dumplings is pure vegetarian indulgence. Vindoos offers a wide variety of vegetarian dishes, so your veggie guests won’t feel left out. We can even cater to specific dietary needs, because everyone deserves to enjoy the wedding feast!
Fusion Fun:
Feeling adventurous? Why not throw in some fun fusion dishes! Imagine a deconstructed samosa served in shot glasses, or a tandoori chicken tikka pizza. Vindoos is all about innovation, so feel free to get creative with your menu and surprise your guests with something unique.
Sweet Endings:
No Indian wedding is complete without a dessert spread that’ll leave your guests in a sugar coma (in the best way possible!). Gulab jamuns are a classic, but consider adding some regional specialties like the Bengali roshogolla (sweet cheese balls) or the Maharashtrian puran poli (flatbread stuffed with sweet lentil paste). Vindoos can create a dessert bar that caters to all taste buds, from the traditional mithai lover to the adventurous dessert explorer.
Bonus Tip: Don’t forget about the starters! Chaat stalls are a fun and interactive way for guests to mingle, and Vindoos offers a variety of chaat options like pani puri, dahi bhalla, and aloo tikki.
