we will gladly set up a tasting for you. Our event coordinator not only
arranges for all the food preparation with our chef, she is onsite the

florists, bakeries, music and photographers that we have successfully
worked with in the past.
Rental Items
We can coordinate the
renting of china, flatware, glassware, tables, chairs, linen, dance
floors, tents, etc. Not only will we order them, on the day of event we
will check items in and make sure everything that was ordered has
arrived.

For an additional fee our staff will remain onsite until the conclusion of your event. They will take down tables and chairs, remove linens and make sure glassware is stored with other rentals.
