Congratulations on your engagement! As a caterer, we know how exciting this time before your wedding can be! We’re honored to be considered as your wedding caterer and we thank you for your interest in Tastebuds Boutique Catering!

 

We are pleased to present the following menus, created specifically for our wedding couples.  These menu suggestions are some of our most popular items that we prepare, and are to give you an idea of how diverse your reception fare can be.  You may choose one of these menus exactly as it is, create a completely custom menu, or you may want to mix and match.  Regardless of what you choose, know that your event is unique to you, and we want to make sure your guests are well fed and happy!  Being Chef Owned, we take pride in our menu design, cooking or completing each item on site to ensure the highest quality possible.  In addition, we feel that it is just as important to please the palate as well as the eye, and take great care with our presentation in both buffet and plate design!

 

You will notice that we have not included prices on these menus, as we would like to give you a complete cost for your reception, including menu, staff fees and rental estimate.  Since each wedding reception is different (times, location, number of guests, etc) we are unable to accurately quote pricing on our website.  Generally, our menus and services fall in the $30.00 to $60.00 range, including staff, menu & service fees, but not including rentals or alcohol.  We customize menus to fit your tastes, so you can use one of the following menus to start with, or create from scratch.  However, please call us at your convenience, and we will get pricing to you as soon as possible!

 

A few other notes:

 

• Pleasant, attentive staff is something your guests will remember and your guests will be well accommodated for by our smiling, professional service team.  Long after you’re your guests have gone, you will remember the easy elegant feeling of our service.

• Please note that each of these menus assume that you will be providing a wedding cake (which we will happily cut for you at no charge!).

• We are unable to purchase liquor for you, however, we will be happy to order it for you and Have it delivered to your event.  This is a complimentary service that we provide.  We have trained bartenders on staff we will price in for your event.  If you are at a venue that has a liquor license, they will most likely provide their own bartenders.

• At Tastebuds, we are available to be part of your planning process, assisting you with advise, suggestions on vendor choices and any other questions or concerns you may have!  As your day draws near, we will meet at your reception location to talk about the layout of the day, including placement of tables, bar, buffets (if applicable), cake table, gift table, etc.
