As hors d’oeuvres
Kick off your wedding eats with mini grilled cheeses at your cocktail hour. If you want to go above and beyond, balance the bite sized sammies on top of shots of tomato soup.

Grilled cheese may not sound like a typical wedding main, but who wants to stick to the status quo? Serve your guests some gourmet grilled cheeses for their main course. Even the pickiest eaters won’t complain about something as mouthwatering as lobster grilled cheese.
As a dessert
Grilled cheese doesn’t have to be a savoury dish. With the right bread and fillings, it can be an amazing sweet treat, too. Choose a more decadent cheese, like mascarpone, and pair it with fresh fruit and nutella. Top the whole thing off with a drizzle of chocolate sauce and you’ll be left with a seriously delicious dessert. This one can get a little messy, so you’ll definitely want to have some forks and knives on hand.

These tasty carb-heavy sammies will help your friends and relatives refuel when they start powering down.
