A wedding is an important moment - it is a union between two people that celebrates love, commitment, and the joining of families and tribes. In a less abstract way, it is also the gathering of people important to the couple and their families and often the source of conversations, stories, photos, and other memories that reinforce the social bonds between far-flung families and provide great photos of grandparents and parents and children and aunts and uncles and cousins that may be a source of comfort and remembrance later in life. How often do we get to get dressed up these days and have everyone we love look their best?
By the time you've come to us for catering, you've probably picked your venue and possibly your planner so there may be quite a bit already locked in. If you'd like to get ideas early, we'd love to help (we have our own venue - see 440 Elm below -- and we know and love many others that we'd be thrilled to refer you to if you give us a sense of what would give you goosebumps!)
Our catering is designed for couples who love hospitality and food and drink and want to make their menu and service something personal that reflects them. With Bite, your not selecting a few options off a set menu for your wedding (to start we have way more than one menu!). We'll draw from those menus and our conversations to put something together that reflects an experience you want to share with your guests. That may reflect a shared experience, formative family meals, food that was there for celebrations or cravings that always hit the spot (there's room for at least one of those in a late night snack offering).
If you love certain things, let us know. If you want your guests to feel or interact a certain way, we love that discussion (there are indeed hard trade-offs between buffet + action stations vs. family-style vs plated). If you want to get technical on flow or timing or timelines or how people can talk across tall centerpieces or what is possible with that tiny little kitchen and a no flame policy in the venue you've already contracted...hey we're happy to go there with you as well.
We're thoughtful people (including skilled chefs and service people) who love food and design challenges...let us help you put something memorable together for your wedding day!
We love to cater weddings in nice places across the Los Angeles (generally between Camarillo and Pasadena) and Orange County region with the occasional foray into Ventura County or Palm Springs.
