We are so honoured to announce that award-winning Culinary Capers Catering will be showcasing their delicious delectables at the most opulent event of the year! Culinary Capers is recognized for their absolutely ravishing cuisine selections and we cannot stop boasting about them being at our show!
We are sure you will agree with us when we say that the menu is by far one of the most important elements when planning a fabulous wedding and event....we all love great food!
So we decided to start by our favourite course "Dessert"
Whether it’s a sit-down dinner affair with a dessert buffet or a full dinner buffet, guests really enjoy a petite dessert display. Petite desserts allow guests to try lots of delicious miniature-sized sweets served in a variety of presentations.
What we are loving right now are the dessert shots Mmmmmm! A few delicious samplings for you to enjoy:
An amazing dessert selection such as this can only follow a mouth watering savoury entree which brings us to the rest of the menu planning! A perfect wedding for your guests is about their enjoyment and comfort. Keeping those two key ingredients in mind Culinary Capers painted the perfect picture for us.
For weddings of up to 125 people we have designed a sit-down plated setup combined with a food station type affair. For the menu below the couple wanted Tuscan inspired tastes with a west coast flair. The evening began with a reception of passed hors d’oeuvres along with sushi and oyster stations.
For dinner we created a menu that had guests enjoying a plated first course then for their “entrée” they were able to “graze” on three action food stations served individually by chefs. The dinner was completed with a plated dessert trio served at the table.
