Kari and Chris had to do some serious leg-work to find a caterer willing to accommodate their request for their reception dinner: Mexican-inspired vegan cuisine. One contender even told them that they considered vegan Mexican an oxymoron! And this was on top of some major guest skepticism about an all-vegan menu. Thankfully, Philadelphia-based caterer Dine My Darling stepped up to help them craft a drool-worthy menu for their Philly nuptials including sweet potato tacos, pumpkin soup shots, and roasted vegetable empanadas. Let's dish on the dishes, and be inspired, vegan Mexican-style...

• Salsa roja
• Salsa verde
• Roasted corn salsa
• Fresh guacamole
• Citrus habanero salsa
• Chip trio (tortilla, plantain, and yucca)
• Pumpkin soup shots with crema
• Crudite with chipotle ranch

Dinner (served family-style):

• Black bean and seitan tacos
• Jackfruit tacos with cilantro slaw
• Sweet potato and vegetarian chorizo tacos
• Roasted vegetable empanadas
• Massaged kale salad with cumin lime vinaigrette and sweet potatoes
• Mexican chopped salad with cumin lime vinaigrette or chipotle ranch dressing
• Chip trio and dips
• Fresh guacamole
• Rice and beans
