Wedding Pizza

October 15th, 2009 @ 1:04 pm by Ms Potato Chips

Potato Head & I have a thing with pizza. We could eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, and brunch. Especially brunch. One of our first wedding brainstorms was to figure out a way to serve up some ‘za at the wedding, like this gorgeous couple:

I love the simplicity of the long table featuring a dozen or so wood-fired thin-crust cheesy pies. We figured we could incorporate fancy toppings, like goat cheese or prosciutto or figs…

Voila: A new category is coined. Wedding Pizza, i.e., somewhere between snarfing down a slice of four of Papa’s in your jammies on a Sunday night and having to use a knife and fork.

Next up: convincing my parents that pizza is appropriate for a wedding and searching for a caterer who will accommodate us!

How do you feel about Wedding Pizza? Be they hamburgers or caviar, were your favorite foods incorporated into your wedding?

Yes yes yes! I saw that wedding on Style Me Pretty when it was first featured. We almost went that route, and even tried this amazing wood-fired, Neapolitan pizza… until the venue fell through and it turned out the restaurant didn’t cater anyway, contrary to what their website said.

I think wedding pizza is awesome, especially when you serve Neapolitan-style pizza, which is somehow more elegant in my mind. One thing we worried about (before we changed our minds) was transporting the pizza, since it’s best fresh from the oven and I doubt many venues could do wood-fired oven on-site.

yum! I’ll take a slice! Ok let’s be honest- I’d take 3 or 4 slices. I hope your family doesn’t get stuck on the weddings have to include a sit down dinner with chicken and steak… :-)

My kindof wedding! Roasted eggplant, spinach, and goat cheese or rockets with olives and feta would be two of my top choices :)

pizza can be really gourmet, esp with adding different toppings, like you mentioned! Also, I don’t know why but square pizzas look more modern & formal to me :) I would search for pictures of really pretty pizzas to show your parents that they can be perfect for a wedding!

Sounds amazing - and if they can serve “gourmet pizza” in fancy restaurants, why shouldn’t you have it at your wedding??

Your flavor ideas sound fab. I’m sure you can find someone who does this… can’t wait to see!

That sounds fantastic. When I lived in Seattle, there was a guy with a wood fired oven on a trailer and he would go to farmers markets and cater people’s parties. I went to a fancy christmas party he catered and it was delish.

Since my FI was a pizza delivery driver through college (you’ve got to pay the bills somehow!) we’ll be serving pizza as our midnight snack! We think it’ll be a fun cheer to our past life as lazy college students (eating greasy pizza in our pjs after a fun night at the bar) and our guests will love the late-night snack:)
We <3 pizza too!

If I was a guest, this would be my favorite wedding ever! We are thinking of ordering some pizzas toward the end of the party to fuel our dance crazy guests since we plan on serving dinner so early (5 ish.)

Hell yes! That is how I feel about wedding pizza. You should check out the menu of this place I love in Austin for some menu inspiration. http://www.eastsidepies.com/
