Dude, where's the food?

*(annoying rhyme unintentional)   

Anyone who owns a small (but quickly growing) business dedicated to a field of creativity knows that word of mouth means EVERYTHING. Not to toot our own horn or anything, but anytime people try our food, they go back and share with friends their amazement and delight. Ok, so maybe that was a wee bit of horn tooting. Well, fine. But what can I say?

We are extremely fortunate to be owned and operated by a passionate and talented foodie who puts every ounce of himself into every morsel of food. And it shows. And word spreads. And we are happy.

However, there is something that has become apparent to us that makes us particularly down in the dumps. As evident by the typing that is occurring at this very moment, BLOGS have shot to the forefront of social media. And any blog who boasts followers by the thousands (hopefully to be us one day) can be hugely influential when deciding what to post -- and what to promote.

For a catering company, one would think that WEDDING BLOGS would be an incredible way to show soon to be newlyweds (or those who merely enjoy gawking at wedding photos -- no judgement) an inside peek at the final results of catering magic.  A helpful tool when shopping for wedding caterers. Seems fairly obvious right? Wrong.

For some unknown reason, food is completely absent from nearly every wedding blog around. Now, we are followers and huge fans of several fantastic and popular wedding blogs.
BrooklynBride, 100 Layer Cake, Ruffled, Style Me Pretty -- to name a just a few. But we are deeply perplexed at the lack of FOOD PHOTOS.

As anyone who has ever attended a wedding can attest to, the food is what everyone talks about. Good or bad. That's what people talk about. Sure they will mention the beautiful flowers, the lovely chuppa, the fabulous (or hideous) bridesmaid dresses. But truly, and I don't believe we are being biased here, aside from the excitement of the newly wedded couple, the food is often the star -- or the dud -- of the evening's gossip.




 So, I ask you wedding bloggers, WHERE IS THE FOOD?



Food photos can be beautiful,  edgy, and artistic. Allow me demonstrate. And please wedding bloggers, I beg you -- and I find no shame in begging -- please follow in our food photo posting foodsteps.
