I'm sure you have tons of questions!

Can we start the process of working with you if we are still deciding on our date?

In order to provide you with the best services possible we limit the number of events we take on per date. Because our availability is limited, we’d hate to start the process for you only to find out we aren’t available once you’ve settled on a date.

Can we start the process of working with you if we are still deciding on our venue?

We regularly work at numerous venues throughout Portland, Vancouver, Hood River, and the Willamette Valley area. We also have great flexibility to provide our services at non-traditional venues and private residences. That being said, some venues and event locations have their own specifications, list of preferred vendors and additional requirements for allowing off-site catering. For these reasons, we require you have a booked and confirmed venue prior to starting the process with us.

Do you work with coordinators?

Of course! We highly recommend having a coordinator to help with planning, designing, and facilitating your event! Some of our favorites may be found on the People We Love page! Due to the additional intricacies and informational requirements, if selecting a plated style meal service for your event, we ask that you be working with at least a day-of coordinator.

What equipment do you need on site for cooking?

We know that not all venues have kitchen spaces for us to use - which is why we've grown accustomed to bringing all of our own supplies, or renting larger cooking equipment from a local rental company. One thing that sets us apart from most other caterers is that we cook most of your meal on site! Your guests will love the quality, and we'll bring everything we need to knock their socks off. We'll need a 10' x 20' space (or comparable) in order to provide the service you want.

What are the pricing differences between buffet, family-style, and plated meal service?

The biggest difference is in the staffing. We price our menus the same, so there's little change there. For family-style service, we'll be bringing platters of each entree item to each guest table and to execute that service flawlessly, we'll need extra hands! The same goes for plated meal service; more hands means your guests are taken care of better.

Can we provide our own alcohol?

I'm so sorry, but offering our bartenders for hire is a not a service we provide. Our bar service is incredibly well-curated and our beverages are handcrafted for amazing quality. We reserve our bartenders for events where our bar service is taking place.

Can you give me a generalized quote?

When we offer pricing for our services, we want it to be as accurate, thorough, and complete as possible. Which is why we want to talk over things with you beforehand.

Can we skip straight to the tasting?

Sorry, but we have limited availability for tastings, and we want to walk down this path just a bit before we get to that point. We'll set this step up at the appropriate time.

Why do you follow your steps so closely?

Our process is tried and true. It's designed to help us take care of you and to ensure we're not missing steps and are gathering the proper information. Trust us; we've done this a lot. We've worked with hundreds of clients and we will take great care of you!
