Between cocktail hour, main dishes, and dessert, you might think wedding guests couldn’t eat any more the rest of the night…but think again! After hours of hitting the dance floor and drinking from an open bar, stomachs will be grumbling. Late night snacks are a great addition to your reception. They should be small and easy to eat, so guests can get back to the dance floor or conversations with old friends and family.

We’ve created a list of late night snacks your wedding guests will love!

All-American

Serving classic wedding finger foods like sliders and fries will always be a hit. Plus, you can really customize your late night snack by adding all of the dipping sauces! Delicious, slightly greasy, and exactly what everyone needs at the end of the night. 

Truffle Fries

Sliders & Tots

Grilled Cheese Donuts

A Taste of The South

If your wedding has Southern style, you can’t go wrong with a biscuit bar, a chicken and waffle station with hot or not fried chicken, or a classic Southern station with all the fixings. Your guests will go wild for comfort food at its finest.

Something Sweet

The cake has been cut, the knot has been tied, and yet… sometimes your sweet tooth continues to call! From a variety of single-serve dessert shooters to mini pies or even candy, there are so many ways to end the night with a sweet treat. Donuts are also a popular hit, especially with so many creative ways to serve them. Serve donut holes as a grab-and go option, or create a display of full-sized donuts! Add a sugary glaze or chocolate sauce for dipping for a touch of decadence.

Mexican Must-Haves

Who hasn’t made a late night run to Taco Bell once or twice? Tacos, quesadillas, empanadas, and churros with chocolate sauce are all easy handheld snacks for the perfect late night bite.

Mini Chicken Tacos

Popcorn Bar

A sweet and salty option, a popcorn bar includes the best of both worlds. With options like cheddar and caramel, guests can customize their own mix. Include some to-go bags so guests can take some back at the end of the night!
