In the wedding industry, we are always looking for new ways to make your wedding stand out. The emerging trend of including novelty foods, like an Espresso Bar, Food Truck or Ice Cream Truck is one of my favorites because they so unexpected!
La Vita Espresso Catering specializes in providing fancy coffee such as Cappuccinos, Lattes and Mochas to your guests. They do all types of events from holiday parties to weddings. Their baristas are professionally trained and know the event industry well. Not to mention they use professional quality equipment.
I think the Espresso bar is a perfect addition to the late night snack. Who doesn't need a little pick me up after having some wine or cocktails? If you want your guests to stay energized for dancing after dinner, consider having an Espresso Bar. It provides the sweetness of a dessert buffet with the added benefit of caffeine!(I also think it would make for a marvelous feature at a winter wedding, nothing calls for coffee more than cold weather.)
In addition to specialty beverages, Food Trucks are another inventive strategy for providing a late night snack or a dessert buffet. For instance, The Chef Shack provides a variety of "green" cuisines using organic meat. It is perfect for a late night snack that is a little bit more refined than a pizza. (Plus, their Earth friendly agenda is a huge bonus!)

Finally, if you like the idea of a dessert buffet but you think it has been done too many times, consider an ice cream truck! JR Ice Cream of Maple Grove has a push cart that is available stocked full of wonderful ice creams. How cool would it be to have a traveling old fashioned ice cream shop instead of a dessert buffet at your wedding?!
I hope I've inspired you with some great suggestions. Remember, novelty items are what make an event special whether it is an unexpected treat or a cutting edge design detail. Happy planning everyone!
