Working with women chefs, Black chefs, and chefs of color, we aim for equality and better representation in the culinary industry. We understand the importance of money. Therefore, we strive for a more inclusive events industry that offers a more equitable distribution of opportunities and money. Collaboratively, we seek to change the industry’s standard by cultivating a culture of inclusion and transparency.

How long does it take to see my curated menu?

Each menu is entirely custom, so the planning, curating, and proposal creation process will take roughly seven business days. We will work with you to plan out food and beverage offerings until we reach the ideal menu to complement your event.

How much do your services usually cost?

On average our menus have two chefs on site, with a budget of $65 per head. Our food pricing is inclusive of tax and gratuity. Additional fees, that depend on your venue and vision, are rentals and staffing. We’ll do our best to estimate these fees so you always have a good idea of your total catering cost.

What wedding coordination services do you offer?

We offer Event Management to clients that are also working with us for our catering coordination services. It's very similar to "Month of Coordination" services often provided by planners. Check here for a run down of what this involves. 40% of our couples also engage with us for Event Management, and we’ve got great reviews!

What’s included in the rental estimate?

The rental estimate includes plates, silverware, napkins, serving dishes and utensils, and catering back of house needs. As the catering coordinator, we will provide an estimate for what we anticipate will be necessary to rent to execute your event. Since no event is the same, we will try to tailor this estimate as much as possible for your specific details in our proposals, but many decisions are made closer to the event. We always work with you and/or your planner to make sure we are matching your vision for your wedding, and we can handle additional wedding rentals as well.

Are there any other fees?

When you look over your proposal, you’ll see everything we anticipate on the pricing overview. We give you a total per person cost that is inclusive of the food costs, our fee, tax, and gratuity. Staffing and rentals are estimated based on the details we have of your event, and are subject to change. There is a standard Catering Management On Site Fee to provide administration and management on the day of the event to cover setting up, receiving and setup of rentals, management of chefs, timeline, and breakdown of event.
