Gourmet Hors d’ Oeurves Perfect for Your Cocktail Hour

This week on the blog we are featuring some of our favorite hors d’ oeuvres!
Cocktail hour is a great time for your guests to mingle, grab a drink and graze on delicious hors d’ oeuvres. Below are some of Personal Touch Dining’s favorites which include items like Chicken & Waffle Bites, Sirloin & Gorgonzola Stuffed Mushroom Caps, Mini Crab Cakes with Tomato & Jalapeno Relish and Gourmet Sliders with Creamed Bleu Cheese & Crisp Bacon. Another great addition to cocktail hour would be a stationary option of fresh fruits, imported & domestic cheeses and seasonal crudité.

Laura & Adam at Darlington House

Laura and Adam had such a nice ceremony and reception at the Darlington House! We love how this wedding was elegant but had a rustic, country feel. The bridesmaids wore different shades of pink and purple, which added so much color to the wedding party. Their beach photos are gorgeous!

Kirstyn & Henry at La Jolla Woman’s Club

We love these photos from another beautiful La Jolla Woman’s Club wedding. Kirstyn and Henry’s guests loved the donut bar that they had for dessert! They also had the most adorable place cards. Instead of using traditional place cards, they tied their guests’ names and table numbers to a little treat and had them find their seats that way. The theme of this wedding was elegant but beachy and we loved this vibe!
