SC - A question on Servers

If you have the space, what is wrong with servers bringing the food to
the guests and placeing it on the plates?  I am getting mixed signals
about it being period.  I know that this type service got popular by a
Russian introducing it to "Tend Setters". (in victorian times?)  But
would, a say a Royal Wedding Feast, be served to the guests or home
style platters on the tables?
