Dinner is where a wedding day finally slows down. Guests settle in, and the food takes center stage. At Seasons Catering & Special Events, we serve wedding dinners in courses, so each plate arrives at its own moment and nobody feels rushed. If you’re searching for a wedding venue in NJ where the meal gets as much care as the room, we’d like to show you how ours unfolds, from the first drink at arrival to the last cup of coffee at night’s end.
A multi-course dinner elevates weddings at a Township of Washington, NJ venue by giving the reception a clear shape, from a champagne welcome and cocktail reception through a plated dinner with vegetarian options. Dessert includes a tiered cake, after-dinner drinks, and an optional Viennese display at extra charge.
Why a Multi Course Dinner Suits a Wedding Day
A multi course dinner gives your reception a clear shape. At Seasons Catering, we think of dinner as more than a meal. It moves through a fresh starter, an intermezzo and expertly paired courses, and each one has its own moment on the table. That order makes it easy for your guests to follow along and enjoy the evening. Below, we walk through each stage of the sample wedding menu we suggest, so you can picture what a full evening at our venue could feel like for your family.
A Champagne Welcome and a Full Open Bar
Your guests are greeted with Champagne on arrival, garnished with fresh strawberries and edible flowers. It’s a small touch, and it sets the tone before anyone finds a seat. Our sample package also includes a full open bar with premium liquors, a vast selection of California wines, domestic Champagne, domestic and imported beers, fruit juices, assorted sodas and San Pellegrino. Everything is listed in the Proposed Wedding Package on our wedding menu page, so you can read it over at your own pace.
Passed Bites and Stations Before You Sit Down
Before dinner, the cocktail reception gets everyone mingling. Hors d’oeuvres are passed butler style, and examples on our sample menu include tuna tartare, beer battered shrimp and filet mignon on garlic crostini. Captain’s stations add more to enjoy, such as a bruschetta station, an international wine and cheese station and a fresh fruit cornucopia. Our cocktail hour at Seasons Catering is grand, and it pairs a premium bar with impeccable service, so guests have plenty to sample while the room fills up.
The Plates That Follow
Once everyone is seated, dinner begins with an artisanal burrata and heirloom tomato tower, served with baby organic field greens. A lemon sorbet intermezzo comes next. For the main course, our suggested entrees are Chateaubriand with sauce bordelaise, potato crusted Chilean sea bass with beurre blanc sauce, and free range French cut herb chicken in a white wine garlic sauce. A vegetarian selection is available upon request, and our cuisine page shares more about how we approach each course. That range gives most guests something they’ll enjoy.
Dessert, Cake and After Dinner Drinks
Dessert starts with a custom tiered wedding cake and an individual plated dessert. Afterward, we offer a complete selection of cordials and liqueurs, along with international coffees, espresso, cappuccino, decaffeinated coffee and herbal teas. If you’d like something more playful, the Seasons Extravagant Viennese Display brings chocolate fountains, ice cream carts, gelato stations and bananas Foster, and it carries an additional charge. Either way, the meal ends on a sweet note, and guests have a good reason to linger a little longer.
