"Please pass the green beans Kim." I love family style meals! They're fun and interactive. Folks are busy passing food to each other and talking away at the same time.
This wedding trend is a fantastic option for brides and grooms that want to set a natural stage for their guests to interact, in a setting akin to "home."
Some of the positives with a family style reception: permission to have low-key centerpieces~ need the space right?... comfortable/homey{esp. for large weddings where guests don't know each other}... no lines for your guests to be called to and wait in.
Some of the cons with this style: possible additional expenses {more dishes, servers, food costs}.. is there enough space on the tables?
What do you think? Other pros and cons?
Are you considering a family style meal?
