But first, a quick reminder of our catering options

RECEPTION
STYLE

If your event is more of a reception where guests arrive at different times and stay for a limited time, we
recommend lighter, flexible fare that can be easily enjoyed without formal seating.

GRAZING STATIONS

Our grazing stations are great options to give guests a bit more “personal choice” within your master menu. Choose from sophisticated self-serve options that allow for a relaxed pace or active chef stations to really delight, engage, and impress your guests.

FAMILY
STYLE

A relaxed experience with homecooked dishes that bring people together around the table, feeling the comfort of home no matter where the location, in a way that feels both personal & celebratory.

PLATED
SERVICE

A plated service offers a formal, structured experience with assigned seating and pre-selected meals for each guest. It’s ideal for events where a touch of elegance and sophistication is required.

BOXED
MEALS

Ideal for conferences, outdoor picnics, or when your event is more on-the-go, boxed meals provide convenience and flexibility without sacrificing quality. These are perfect for corporate or social events where your guests need to grab and go.

FOOD TRUCK
EXPERIENCE

Our food truck option adds a fun, informal touch to outdoor events, allowing guests to grab their meals at their convenience. This style works especially well for events where guests arrive at different times or where you have an extended eating period.
