The wedding entree everyone loves...

Our Slow-Roasted Herb-Crusted Pork Loin with our signature sweet & spicy Jalapeño Apricot Sauce is the kind of wedding entree guests come back for seconds. Tender, flavorful, and naturally gluten free & dairy free.

🥂 Wedding beverage service is so much more than “Do we need a bar?”

One of the biggest surprises for couples is how many beverage decisions go into creating an unforgettable guest experience.

Here are the questions we hear most often:

✨ Should we greet guests with a tray-passed welcome drink?
✨ Do we need signature cocktails?
✨ Should we offer mocktails or other non-alcoholic options?
✨ Is tableside wine service worth it?
✨ Do we need a champagne toast?
✨ How many bartenders do we need?
✨ Should we have one bar or multiple?
✨ How much alcohol do we actually need?

Our answer? Thoughtful beverage service keeps your guests comfortable and celebrating from the first sip to the last dance.

✔️ Tray-passed welcome drinks create a memorable first impression.
✔️ Signature cocktails add a personal & fun touch.
✔️ Mocktails ensure every guest feels included.
✔️ Tableside wine service elevates dinner, and it’s included in our standard packages
✔️ Guests can toast with the drink already in hand, or you can add a champagne toast for an extra celebratory touch.
✔️ Efficient bar service keeps lines short, and we’ll help determine the right number of bartenders and guide you through alcohol quantities.

The best weddings don’t happen by accident, they’re planned with intention. 🥂

One of the sweetest moments of a wedding day happens away from the crowd.

While guests enjoy cocktail hour, the newlyweds are often busy taking photos and soaking in their first moments as a married couple.

That’s why we set aside a platter of cocktail hour favorites just for them.
A chance to be together, enjoy a bite, and take in the fact that they just said “I do.”
It’s one of our favorite wedding traditions.

Because every couple deserves to enjoy every part of their celebration.

Appetizers:
- Elote Cup: Mexican Grilled Corn with Cheese, Lime & Spices (Gluten Free)
- Crab Cakes with Lemon Caper Aioli
- Delicious Crunchy Mini Al Pastor Tacos with Grilled Pineapple (Gluten Free, Dairy Free)
