The Experience You've Been Craving
The Hors D' Oeuvres Myth
Some couples request a hors d' oeuvres only reception thinking it may be less expensive than a traditional dinner. This is not necessarily true. If the reception is held during a traditional dinner time (5 to 7) guests and their appetites will be ready for dinner, even if the invitation says otherwise. Individual hors d' oeuvres are more time consuming to prepare and in turn more costly than traditional buffet service. Ideal hors d' oeuvres reception times are afternoon (2 to 5) or late evening (7 to 10)
$
Styles of Service and Which is Right for You?
Semi Sit Down
A pleasant combination of a sit down meal and a traditional buffet. We often pair a pre-plated salad with water carafes and breadbasket with butter plate. We also will recommend the appropriate number of buffets for your guest count to minimize length of serving time and time it takes. Our goal is to have your guests served in less than 30 minutes
$
Plated
Plated dinners are the most formal and elegant service style in which every course is served to your guests. They are typically more expensive because of the increased labor needed to serve your guests in a timely manor. Our goal is under 20 minutes with this service style. A dual entrée (portions of two entrees, chicken and pork) is a great way to avoid having to compile orders from your guests on rsvp cards. It also helps with the speed and efficiency of dinner
$
Service
We take a limited number of events to ensure your event is properly taken care of. You receive the service of the ownership/ management as well as our best and most experienced serving staff. We get high praise from our past events for the thoughtfulness given to their guests
