Dinner Display
I'm not in love with the word “buffet”. It brings to mind 70’s cafeteria style meals. I would rather refer to it as a “dinner display”! We set up the display to look like you walked into a food bazaar in Morocco or a farmers market in France. The display of food includes platters of different sizes at different levels surrounded by fruits, veggies, herbs and baskets that are curated from the farmers market. It looks bountiful and beautiful. With the Dinner Display you get a plated seasonal farmers market salad 2 proteins, 2 sides, a seasonal roasted vegetable platter, 3 tray passed appetizers and a dessert display.

FARMERS MARKET VEGETABLE PLATTER
(included with your Dinner Display package)
This is one of my favorite dishes of the meal. We go to the farmers market and pick 5 of the tastiest, seasonal vegetables. They are prepared individually with different seasonings, herbs and flavors.
They are beautifully presented on platters, and served at room temp. We think that it is really important for your guests to have choices. Because let's face it, people can be picky about their veggies. We love you to give us the go ahead to pick the best looking veggies at the farmers market for the wedding and roast them out favorite way!
Family Style
Family Style Dinners are my favorite catering style for weddings. They remind me of being in the countryside in Italy or France. Drinking wine, laughing, eating and enjoying friends and family's company. It's more of a relaxed style. Our servers put platters of food in the middle of the tables and guests help themselves. There are enough proteins for each guests to have 1 of each. The family style menu comes with 1 salad, 2 proteins, 2 sides, a seasonal roasted vegetable platter and the dessert display.
