What is the perfect way to end your wedding reception? Send your guests home with a midnight snack! After hours of dancing and celebrating, dinner becomes a distant memory by the end of the evening. Check out some of our fabulous ideas for that perfect (and memorable!) late-night Thank You treat.
Fast Food:

Serving little bags of fast food fries may seem like a simple concept, but the effort is well appreciated! Odds are several of your guests will be making that late-night McDonald’s run anyway…all that dancing works up an appetite! Why not beat them to the punch and cut out the middle man? Other takes on this idea could include entire “Happy Meals” or little baked pies from your favorite fast food joint. Super easy, and relatively inexpensive!

Nothing beats the late night blues like a little sugary pick-me-up and a cup of coffee for the road! This simple and sweet take home idea will give your guests just the right amount of caffeine to get them through the long drive home.
Cotton Candy (or any other little sweet treat):
Cloud 9 Cotton Candy is an Austin-based cotton candy company that would be perfect for your wedding’s midnight snack! They offer a variety of flavors to choose from, so your guests can pick what they want to nosh on before driving home! Plus, how cute would it be to have this little setup surprise your guests on the way out?

Food Trucks:
Simple, pre-packaged take home foods too cold and boring? Imagine having a Mobile Food Truck awaiting your guests as they exit your reception, serving up hot, savory, and FRESH food choices to your party goers. The Seedling Truck by Royal Fig Catering is just one example of a mobile food truck that can await your guests as they exit your reception. No doubt you have seen several food truck types around and about Austin, but The Seedling Truck is an all-new take on this wildly successful idea. It is set to launch into service just after Thanksgiving, and could just be the thing your wedding needs to impress and satisfy your guests. With a revolving menu and farm-fresh and seasonal cuisine, The Seedling Truck has countless options to “wow” your wedding! Fair warning though, inquiries for the truck fill up fast and are by reservation only! For more information on The Seeding Truck, contact Dan and Kristen Stacy at Royal Fig Catering.
Any of these ideas would be a sure way to leave your wedding guests in awe, and send them home with the perfect little reminder of the wedding-day bliss they were lucky enough to witness.
Now…are you hungry yet?
