Love Cheese? Then You'll Definitely Want to Serve It This Way at Your Wedding
Of all the food and drink served at a wedding, the thing I dream about most often is the cheese spread. Yes, there would be a literal layered cheese "cake," and yes, there would be generous chunks of my favorite cheeses in the world paired with fresh baguette slices. Whether you are planning a wedding or dreaming of your own, let these wedding ideas for cheese inspire you to new heights of dairy pleasure.
Cheese on a Fork
An easy-to-grab appetizer, cheese on a fork feeds guests quickly and without any mess. Here are some starter combos: camembert and jalapeño, blue cheese with walnuts and cranberries, fontina and salami, and manchego and fig spread.

Stick the forks in salt or sugar to keep them standing upright.
Deconstructed Cheese Wedding "Cake"
Rather than serving cake, opt for an elaborate cheese table, complete with your favorite wheels. Keep the crackers in mini glass cake stands so they remain fresh throughout the night.

Alternatively, opt for a layered cheese wheel cake. Decorate the wheels with succulents, bay leaves, and rustic white flowers (like snapdragons) to make the whole thing really pop!
Terrariums Filled With Cheese
If your wedding is outdoors, try this beautiful presentation: fill terrariums with cubes of cheese and hang them from a tree branch.

Bread Galore!

OK, these flavored butters receive an honorable mention, because they look too delicious not to spread. On a night of festive drinking, this carb station will be your guests' lifesaver.
Midnight Snack Box
Edible party favors are always appreciated. Send guests home with a midnight snack box, complete with a minibottle of wine, cookies, and cheese wedges.
