Wedding trends change from season to season, but one thing remains the same, every bride wants to wow their guests. That is one thing that makes being a Charlotte wedding planner such a fun job! We get to take part in these amazing trends! So when we heard about this one we had to jump on the “truck” with everyone else! You know they say – the way to a person’s heart is through their stomach, so we’ve got two words for you. Food. Trucks. Yes, those big trucks full of your favorite comfort food, special desserts, and unique menus. So follow along on our ride as we tell you all about how to incorporate these tasty transportation into your big day!

One thing that makes food trucks special is their ability to be customized into a wedding theme. Serving the bride and groom’s favorite foods, personalized menu boards, fun food names, or wrapping the truck…the opportunities are endless to make it unique to your day! You can serve your full dinner, just desserts, or have a food truck come for a late night snack. (More on late night snack ideas here!)
Food trucks can be extremely cost effective. The average food cost per guest for a wedding is $85. The average per person cost for a food truck? $20-30. So you can save that extra cash for your honeymoon!
