My husband and I decided to marry in Miami, where we started dating 9ys ago... yet we both live in Europe (I am Brazilian, he is Italian).
Doing everything long distance can be quite complicated, especially with food... I guess I am also less a...ttentive when it comes to culinary (being a designer I tend to notice mainly the decor details 🙂) yet my husband comes from Sicily... where food is not only important, but a priority...!
Though the wedding menu for him was his main concern, he was unfortunately too busy to meet up with vendors for the tastings, and I was terrified not to match his expectations!!
Based on his notes and requets, we decided to go with Thierry's: fair value-for-money, top notch food presentation, perfect service, great quality, and of course... amazing food. True that for what we wished for, it came out expensive... yet lower than some of the "super fancy" caterings which to me seemed a bit of a rip-off... And we really wanted that upgrade... worth every penny!
Catherine, Alex, Vincent and the whole team were extremely flexible, professional, and worked around our menu draft until we were sure we had what we wanted. When I asked for a "creative" salad... the Chef offered us a fantastic "cloche" edible garden - served french-style, table by table... with its "magic smoke" and flowers! (I am so still in love with it 😍).
Our cocktail hour had amazing hors d'oeuvres and included stations: corners of sushi, crepes, crudo bar, mediterranean... our dessert area had chic petit-fours, a chocolate fountain, and an ice cream station... our guests commented the whole time how amazing the food and service were! Simply impeccable.
(Catherine even organized a last minute tasting for my husband only a few days before the wedding, just so we were sure it was all as he had hoped for...! Nice touch ☺)
And I could go on and on, yet words are useless to describe how nice it all was. Thierry Isambert's services must be fully experienced, and we highly recommend this company. Thank you so much to the whole team for making our day so special! Warm hugs... from Manu&Enrico
