Picking the right wedding caterer is stressful.
And you shouldn’t have to settle for:
Boring, dry chicken
Lackluster drinks
Outsourced staff that doesn’t care about your event
A completely forgettable meal
Instead, here’s what you can expect when we cater your event:


A Fun, Non-Traditional Experience
Drab, banquet-hall buffets? Stuffy, white glove service? Hard pass. Your wedding meal should reflect who you are and what you love – not what tradition says it should be. Grams might not totally get it at first – “PiZza?! AT yOuR weDdINg?!” – but trust us, post-dinner, she’ll be a believer – believe dat.


Food + Drinks Your Guests Will Rave About
Your guests were mentally preparing for dry chicken and a sad vodka cranberry. But we make everything on-site, mere minutes before it’s served. So get ready to hear “Ermergherd, this is all so delicious!” alongside weepy, heartfelt thank you’s all. night. long.


A Team That Takes Care Of It All
Book us and chill. From the beginning to the big day, our experienced, in-house team will handle all the nitty-gritty details – from coordination to cooking to cleanup – so you don’t have to. Hakuna matata, babe.

Weddings + Counting
Your big day only happens once — so let’s make sure it’s unforgettable

How far do you travel?
Do you work with my venue?
Even if we are not on your venue’s preferred vendors list (yet!), there’s still a pretty good chance we’ll be able to cater your event. We’ve done it before, and gosh dang it! We’ll do it again. In addition, should you choose to forgo a venue and have your event at a private residence, we are happy to cater there as well.
Do you offer tastings?
How early do I need to book my date?
