We care about creating the best experience for your event! Boutique Bites creates unique and luxurious menus for all types of events, from cocktail parties to seated 6-course dinners. Our clients come to us because they are looking for a memorable dining experience and for their guests to be wowed.
We love it when…
The bridge & groom give us specific ideas of what they like and then allow us to create a menu for them. We ask our brides and grooms what their favorite restaurants are, if they have any ethnic preferences for their menu, what type of foods they enjoy eating, etc. From there we are able to customize a menu and begin the process of choosing their perfect wedding day meal. It’s a fun and exciting process!
Our style
We have a high-end aesthetic and attention to detail which is key. We put a fun, unique spin on classic hors d’oeuvres, such as our braised beef short rib “shepherd’s pie” with a mini mug of Guinness, among others. I worked in some of the best restaurants in the country before starting Boutique Bites, so that is definitely reflected in our culinary style.
What you should know before we meet
That there’s more involved with the catering aspect of your event than just the food. Many times the bride and groom don’t realize that it’s not just food that they are paying for; it’s food, staff and rentals. There are so many beautiful venues in the city but many of them don’t have kitchens, tables, chairs, plates, silverware, glasses, etc. Since Boutique Bites is a full service company, we include all of this in the proposal. So it’s important to keep this in mind when you inquire about catering for your wedding.
Words of wisdom
Eat! The bride and groom never eat enough, especially if they choose a menu of passed hors d’oeuvres and food stations. They are always so busy taking pictures, talking and dancing. We always set aside food for the bride and groom, but even then, they tend to take a few bites and get pulled away. It’s delicious and you paid for it, so make sure you eat it J
We love Topiarius because…
They are the best at what they do! Topiarius has such unique floral designs for themed and classic events. They have so much experience and are great to work with. You can’t help but like Sara and Kim. They also have a beautiful, spacious and organized work space, which is a big plus for client meetings. And I love that they also design urban gardens! We’ll be working with Topiarius this spring on our herb garden at Boutique Bites.
