Answers:
i'm vegetarian, but i've thought about the same issues!.!.!. do i only serve veg food or serve meat since most of my guests eat it!? right now, i'm leaning down the middle!.!.!. mostly veg, decent amount of seafood, and minimal chicken!.!.!.!. i know some family members would probably starve if i didn't atleast give them some chicken (very, very, very picky eaters)!.!.!. and they are my family and while i'm the one paying for the meal and therefore contributing to the practices i hate, they are bringing a gift and there to support me and should have the option of a meal they might enjoy!. i hope to have enough non-meat food to keep people happy but!.!.!. i feel like i should provide some other food as well!. there are people who would do a fully vegetarian reception though (although from my internet searching they all seem to be in california :/ not the east coast) and people enjoy themselves!.!.!. if you and your husband both want to do it that way then you certainly can! it's not like when i go to weddings there's a ton of food i can eat and people served meals with my likes in mind soo!.!.!. go for it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I'm 19 and I don't want to get married, but maybe I can help with your question!. I know one vegetarian restaurant around where I live that does catering (they do vegan food too, I LOVE their chocolate raspberry cake), so you could surely find a restaurant that would do it for you!. Whether or not you serve vegan stuff is up to you, but I don't see any reason to compromise on that!. You probably have to compromise or not get anything to eat at other's weddings because they don't serve vegan food!. It would be YOUR day, so you should do what you want!. And if anyone complains about it, it's very rude manners!. Anyways, non-vegans can eat vegan food, but vegans can't eat non-vegan food, so they're the ones who should be compromising, not you because you made "that choice" (a good, healthy compassionate choice)!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Ultimately, as the bride, it's really your decision to make!. I attended a vegan wedding; the food was vegan!. It was their decision!. Did I try the food!? Yes, and didn't like it (which was the general consensus; much of us have sophisticated tastes and so we were hoping to be impressed and were badly unimpressed)!. I wanted to like it, but didn't!. Nonetheless, it was not for me to tell the bride/groom this; I thanked them for inviting me, and wished them well!.

There are numerous vegan/vegetarian caterers who should be able to assist you if you go this route!.

Keep in mind that some of the items used in vegan cooking may not sit well with some folks (just as some vegans may not react well to butter and similar products)!.

Good question! I am sure there are caterers you could hire, just like anyone else!. And what I think is even cooler is to make it yourself!. Like, instead of having a bridezilla wedding with unnecessary expenses for one day, embrace simplicity and just have a very intimate celebration and making the dishes yourself or just having a vegan cake and smoothies! I think that would be a great message to send--healthy living instead of alcohol and dead flesh and consumerism! Plus, if you have a simple wedding, you can save money and use it for something important!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

A bakery can make vegan cakes but they will charge more!.
