Commonly Asked Questions...​
​
Why can't I choose what we try at our tastings?
Our Complimentary Tasting Events are designed to give couples a thoughtful Chef-curated overview of some of the more often selected dishes. We provide these Chef-Selected samplings that best represent our quality, presentation, and flavor profiles. This allows us to offer this experience at no cost to the couple while keeping it seamless and enjoyable for everyone.
If wishing to choose specific selections, this is a Private, paid tasting.
​
What if we live out of the area and we are unable to make a tasting work?
While our tastings are made available to you, if you are unable to make a tasting work for you, we can go through the catering details by phone or Google Meet to review the menus together, talk through your questions, and discuss the catering process. Our Catering Director will be able to assist you with menu selections based on what you are looking for.
​
​
What if I have dietary restrictions, or my guests do?​
Dietary information will be reviewed during the First Contact call that you will have with the Catering Director. For the Tasting Events, as these are group tastings, we will have selections that are GF and Vegetarian. If you are looking for a venue to accommodate a more specific diet, a Private Tasting is recommended, where the dishes can be made to accommodate your specific needs.
For guests with dietary needs, we will be able to create a special dish for these guests as detailed in our menu and will be covered in the First Contact conversation.
​
Can I make specific Requests of what I want to try at theTasting Event?
​
The Second Tasting Event is a group tasting, and our Chef will make a variety of dishes for everyone to try. Special requests may be considered; however, they are not guaranteed, as we are unable to make every item that someone wishes to try. While we will be able to accommodate most dietary requests for your wedding, if specific dietary restrictions are required for the tasting event, a private tasting may be a better fit, where we would be able to offer more customization.
​
Is the whole menu available to try at the Tasting Event?
​
The Tasting Event is a group tasting, and our Chef will make a selection of dishes for everyone to try. This tasting will have a nice variety of our most often selected dishes and will not be the whole menu. When looking for specific items for your tasting experience, please refer to the Private Tasting option that can be discussed with the Event Coordinator.
