There's nothing quite as intimate as a private home wedding. We recently catered a 50 person wedding in the backyard of a beautiful home in Malibu Canyon. To say that this wedding was fabulous would be an understatement! While the mother of the bride handled the lighting as well as the delicate pink and creme floral arrangements, Bite handled the rentals and catering needs for all 50 guests.
For this wedding, we arranged three different dinner stations to appeal to all guests. The goal was to create a relaxed, informal setting for the guests to feel comfortable and casual. We set up the the salad station, the gourmet slider station, and the pizza station next to each other to create an easy line for guests to get their food.
We also provided a bar setup on the client's newly renovated backyard porch where guests could relax, mingle, and sip on drinks while they overlooks the gorgeous Malibu Canyons all the way to the ocean. All in all, it was a perfect evening filled with delicious food, laughter, and love!
