Imagine arriving at a wedding a few minutes early. You’ve been getting ready, you’ve been traveling, and you’re just now realizing you haven’t eaten since breakfast. Then you see it: the pre-ceremony grazing table and beverage bar.
Your whole being sighs with gratitude. You’ll be relaxed and focused on every moment of the joyous ceremony, not wondering how soon you get to eat. Yes. Be that couple. Don’t make your guests go hungry.
