Getting ready morning food?

Senel, 23 January, 2024 at 20:01 Posted on Planning 0 28
Hello everyone,


I have quite a large bridal party and I’d like to have food for us whilst we are getting ready the morning of. Our caterers aren’t able to accommodate but they said we could use their fridge to store anything beforehand. Does anyone know what a good amount of food or what to provide would be? I was thinking about ordering some pre made sandwiches as it’s something substantial but they would be made from the day before. All ideas welcome! We won’t have access to a kitchen or any tools.
Thank you!

    I usually just see snack type finger food, maybe crisps, triangle sandwiches /- easier to eat but nothing squishy going to drip out on you. Although you will be eating earlier than when you are in your dresses I often see the bride or brides maid wants just one more bite of that sandwich.

    I think I see a lot left over - that's why I know what is normal so seems nerves dampen the appetite but you should try and eat something.

    A lot depends on if you are all staying at the same place and can have a good breakfast of anything before the hair and makeup starts or you are all meeting at the venue with just a few hours to go.

    I have heard that it is good to have lighter foods in the morning before the wedding and something to keep you feeling energised but at the same time keep you going until you get to eat again. If you know certain foods make you bloated definitely skip those too. Also read it is good to avoid too salty or spicy food, and also foods high in sugar. As for drinks, skip on coffee, which can give you the jitters and aggravate you.

    Maybe have some granola/muesli and yogurts with fruits, veggies and dips, oatmeal, some eggs/omelettes, avocado toast, smoothies, etc.

    We're having a breakfast at the start of the day and then we're having canapes while we're getting ready.

    Fazoli’s Three Meat Tortellini is a flavorful and satisfying dish packed with bold taste. The tender tortellini is filled with a savory blend of meats and tossed in a rich, creamy Alfredo or hearty marinara sauce (depending on your choice), making it a great pick for meat lovers.

    Getting ready in the morning with a large group definitely calls for easy, no-fuss options! Pre-made sandwiches sound like a solid idea since they’re filling and easy to serve without any kitchen tools. You might also want to consider some grab-and-go items like fruit cups, muffins, or even breakfast boxes inspired by the variety on the Applebee’s breakfast menu they offer a good mix of hearty and light options that could keep everyone satisfied while keeping things simple. Best of luck with your bridal party preparations.

    Having food on hand while getting ready is such a great idea! Pre-made sandwiches sound convenient, but you might also consider breakfast burritos or wraps for a bit more variety.

    This thread is really helpful for planning morning food before the big day—thanks to everyone for sharing ideas. It made me wonder, what’s a good balance between light and filling food so no one feels too full? Also, for anyone thinking about meal options after the event, the Captain D’s seafood menu has some nice seafood choices that might be worth checking out.

    Premade sandwiches could work, but they might get a little soggy if made the day before. A great alternative is picking up breakfast from the McDonald’s breakfast menu Canada . You can get a nice variety—bacon & egg options, hotcakes, or even breakfast wraps. Everything is already warm and ready to go, and you can store extras in the fridge if needed!

    Has anyone else noticed how much variety the Red Lobster menu offers lately? I was checking it out recently, and it’s more than just lobster—they’ve got everything from shrimp tacos to seafood pasta and even some solid non-seafood options. If you're curious, I found a super helpful breakdown here: Red Lobster menu. It really helped me decide what to try next time. Would love to hear what your go-to order is!

    Just tried Dave's Hot Chicken kale slaw for the first time and honestly, it’s a total game-changer. I wasn’t expecting much from a side dish, but the balance of crunch, tang, and just a hint of sweetness totally blew me away. It’s the perfect refreshing contrast to their spicy chicken — definitely not your average slaw. Highly recommend giving it a shot next time you're there!

    There's something so comforting about those quiet early moments spent preparing morning food. It sets the tone for the whole day. I love how simple tasks like chopping or stirring can feel almost meditative. Little Caesars Holiday Hours Thanks for the gentle reminder to slow down and enjoy the little rituals.
