Delectable. Memorable. Creative. Exciting. Delicious
Jeanne Spence and her team at Gourmet Caterers created a memorable and truly special five course meal with wine pairings for our wedding reception. This was NOT your regular old wedding chi...cken!
My husband and I are foodies so naturally we wanted our wedding meal to be unforgettable and special for our guests. He is Italian and I am Puerto Rican and we wanted our cultural traditions to be present in the menu. We worked with Chef Dave to create something really special. The amuse bouche was a fried plantain, the first course was a sunchoke soup that guests are STILL talking about, the second course was a carbonara, the third course was a latin spiced filet, and the dessert course was an italian gelato with espresso beans and salted carmel. YUM! We had french service for the soup and the dessert that delighted our guests. They did an excellent job of assuring that everyone's meat was at a temperature preferred by the guest. They gave our menu to a sommelier to pick out wine pairings for each course that brought out the flavor even more. My belly is happy just thinking about it.
Gourmet is not your average caterer.. they go above and beyond to excite the tastebuds and provide you and your guests with a memorable experience. All of the servers went above and beyond-- the steward even helped me hold my dress so it wouldn't get ruined in the rain and held umbrellas for people all while we were taking photos. She was like our maid of honor and best man!
We loved working with Jeanne Spence. Her spunk, energy, attention to detail, love of weddings, love of food, honesty, and genuineness made the planning fun! We really appreciate everything that she did for us. She was conscious of our budget and did everything to make our vision happen within that budget, in suggesting linens, size table, and floral decor that would make the space perfect and affordable. She truly cares about us as a couple and as people, and we consider her now a new friend. When all other caterers say no, Gourmet says yes. We are so grateful and will use them again in the future (baptisms, birthdays, anniversaries, showers, etc). They are simply the best.
