Delicious Wedding Ideas for Traditional Texas Food<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Texas is a fantastic state with a great culture all of its own. Whether you yourself are from Texas and want to return there for a traditional Texan style wedding (complete with Texas food), or you live in the lone star state and are having your wedding locally, then you\u2019ll find it is an amazing place to get married. Of course, you can have any style of wedding you like in Texas, especially in major cities like Dallas and Houston, and there are some wonderful places to check out like the award winning wedding venue in Houston, Chateau Polonez (plan your Houston wedding here<\/a>). However, it can really make your day memorable if you incorporate at least some traditionally Texan elements into your day \u2013 allowing you to bring some of that famous Texas hospitality to your guests and make a real celebration.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Chateau-Polonez\"<\/p>\n

There are some interesting Texas wedding traditions<\/a> you can include in your day, but possibly the easiest way to add local charm to your wedding is in your catering. Everybody loves Texan and Tex-Mex<\/a> cuisine, and while it may not be the first type of food you think of for a fancy wedding banquet, when done well, you can ensure a delicious menu your guests will love! Here are some ideas:<\/p>\n

Texas Food:\u00a0 BBQ<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re not expecting your wedding to be too heavy on vegetarian or vegan guests, then you can go all out with a meaty, tantalizing barbecue with all the trimmings. Of course, you can make this a little fancier by grilling up really good quality meats, the best Texas has to offer! Think of beautiful steaks sizzling on a lavish barbecue outdoors, and the finest sausages with homemade BBQ sauce. The beauty of a BBQ wedding feast is there are no menus to fuss over, so you get the convenience of a buffet, but people still get some delicious hot, fresh food they are going to love.<\/p>\n

Texas Food: Tex-Mex<\/h2>\n

Adding some Mexican flair to your menu can make for a tasty and interesting choice that really well reflects the cuisine of Texas. This can easily be served buffet style or from a menu, and you can include favorites like fajitas, burritos, chili and refried beans. This is a type of food that is designed to be enjoyed family style, and will give the people at your wedding reception that celebratory fiesta feel as they eat!<\/p>\n

Texan Rehearsal Dinner<\/h2>\n

If you like the idea of the BBQ or the Tex-Mex reception, but it doesn\u2019t quite fit with what you wanted for your wedding (perhaps you had some elaborate French cuisine in mind), you can always have your Texan meal as your rehearsal dinner instead. Alternatively, you can go for BBQ for your rehearsal and Tex-Mex at the wedding, or vice versa. This can be a nice way to add even more Texan food to your event!<\/p>\n

Choosing delicious, traditional food for your Texas wedding can be a great way to make it enjoyable and memorable for your guests, so why not start planning a Texan menu!<\/p>\n
