Can you create a custom menu?

We can tailor recipes, modify flavor profiles, and adjust selctions to suit exactly what you are looking for. We can also work with many different recipes, family recipes or any other recipes that are not listed on our menus.

Yes we have an extensive background in the preparation of Kosher, Vegan, and Gluten-free menus and other dietary requests. We actually have an exclusive plant-based vegan wedding menu that I have not seen anywhere else in Atlanta.

How far in advance do couples need to book their caterer?

We recommend reaching out a minimum of 6 months to a year prior to your actual wedding date.

Will food be made onsite or brought in?

We use only the finest and freshest, local and seasonal ingredients and have the highest respect for the food we serve, so to ensure it is as fresh as possible we cook it right before we serve it. 

Any tips or advice for couples looking to book a caterer for their wedding?

Find a caterer that you get along with, feel comfortable with, and meets your needs.

Get ahead on your planning and organizing so you can enjoy the time with friends and family and are not scrambling and stressed at the last minute. You only get married once so make sure you enjoy this time! 

We hope this will be a huge help to our couples when deciding on a wedding caterer.
