The Wedding Feast
Monday, July 6, 2009
Feasting has been around forever and ever.
For centuries, it was the accumulation of a ritual. A part of a ritual.
Weather the ritual was to commence the turning of the seasons, or the first harvest, eating in celebration meant far more than stuffing one's face.
A feast is sacred.
In many ceremonies it is traditional to have a potluck, where each guest brings a dish of food that has lovingly been made to share in the wedding feast. This allows each guest to contribute and bring their own offerings in the way of food.
Due to certain considerations and having a flock of guests from out of town, we've decided not to have a potluck.
Though we will have the elements of what the feast means by asking some guests to bring specific food items.
This bride is looking for a caterer who understands what feasting means.
That isn't to say you have to be overly religious or pray over the food while its being made, but we are looking for someone who has this level of understanding of what a feast actually is.
We don't want a caterer who can just assemble some food together and call it a day. We are open to input and suggestions.
The more creative, the better.
Are you our caterer?
