Frequently asked Questions,
- Bride, I'm worried about the food having an elegant feel without a caterer? Chef, that's where I shine, this is part of the planning of the food and display.
- Bride and Groom, Will this really save us money? Chef, Oh yes. the time we spend on making the menu, shopping lists and who will help on your day plus all the tips I have learned over the years, will save you thousands verses hiring a caterer.
- Bride, How early should this process be started? Chef, It is a process and the more time to do it the better. Some things you can get done way ahead of time and it helps you shop sales. I have worked with brides as early as 3 years prior to their wedding and as late as 3 months before. The 3 months before your wedding Brides sure did a lot of scrambling but it can be done. The process is more enjoyable when your not in a hurry.
- Bride, Why do I need an extra contact? Chef, I, recommend it for two reasons, One, 4 ears are always better then 2. and Two, having an extra contact gives you someone to hand off tasks to. Divide and concur!
- Bride, How important are lists and timelines? Chef, They will become your best friends and help you sleep at night. Weddings have so many moving parts, especially the food portions. As your head is already probably spinning with ideas and things to remember. If they are all planned out on lists and timelines, you can let go and focus on the fun stuff! Sleeping will be much easier.
- Mother of the Bride, How will the video meeting work? Chef, After you choose the date. The 1st meeting will be with you and maybe the Groom. We will spend the time getting to know each other and your dreams of the wedding day. This layout the way to how we can help make it happen. No vision yet, No problem! We will go through a series of questions to help find your food vision. Then we find where you are at in the process using timelines. This will help keep you focused. Talking over your contact team and other team assembly. Next we will make a plan forward of what needs to be done before the next meeting, this will help keep you motivated and reduce your stress. Last step of the meeting is planning the next meetings, and what needs to be worked on at that time.
- Bride, How will we keep all this straight? Chef, I got you! After each meeting, the Video will be uploaded for your reference 24/7 as well as shared notes to our own group the entire time until your wedding.
- Bride and Mother, Why would we need a expert on speed dial the day of the wedding? Chef, With the 1000's of events, I have seen life happen. I have helped people pivot more times than I can remember. A cool head with a creative mind can fix almost anything!
