I have to pick hors d’oeuvres to be served butler-style at my CH. And I can basically request anything . . . but I'm not sure what my guests will like.
What have you guys like best at weddings you've attended? Past brides -- what went over best at your wedding?
Here's some on my list so far -minature lamb chops -baked clams -fried zucchini -croque monsieur (I'm told these are likemini rueben sandwiches) -scallops wrapped in bacon -assorted puff hors d’oeuvres -shrimp cocktail -chicken/beef strips (julienne or satay) -baby tomatoes stuffed with ricotta cheese
TIA!!!

I know from my own family that EVERYONE raves when there are those mini lamb chops. I don't eat meat, so i can't confirm that, but I trust the fam.!

You are so far ahead of me! I'm down to 7 weeks and haven't chosen hors d'oeuvers yet!!!!!! Did you go for your tasting there? We loved it!

I love scallops wrapped in bacon. The most interesting thing I've seen at a wedding recently though was a chilled raspberry soup served in a shot glass -- it was basically like sorbet soup with a little dollop of whipped cream on top. It was great!

Definitely the baby lamb chops - they're awesome. When I worked as a waitress for a catering company they were ALWAYS the first ones to go.
I'll be parked by the Shrimp coctail. yum!

My favorite has to be the baby lamb chops. That was one of our requirements, the hall had to offer them.

PIGS in a blanket!! They may not be considered 'classy', but I think that they are probably everyones fav!! I know they are in my family anyway! Also, although I don't eat them - baby lamb chops seem to be a big hit as well.

When I go to a wedding I follow the person around who is serving the pigs in the blanket. I can't be w/o them
