Your Caterer
Most wedding venues will have in-house catering services. Be sure to review the venue’s menus before booking to determine that their pricing & cuisine fits your taste and budget. Once you have booked the venue, sit down with the catering manager and review the various culinary options ~ do you want a seated 3-course dinner, or passed heavy hors d’oeuvres, or a variety of stations? Ask what are the venue’s most popular cuisine choices and which style of service they feel works best at their site. Next, it is important to have a tasting so you will know how your dinner will taste and be presented. Don’t be afraid to suggest changes! Take notes about what you like and don’t like and snap a picture of all the items that are served.

If your reception is at a historic house or vineyard, it is likely that you will have to find a caterer. Again, the staff at the venue will be your best resource. It is possible that you are limited to a select list of caterers that are approved by the venue. When you contact the caterers, ask if you can have a tasting without signing a contract. Typically there will be a fee for the tasting if you select an alternate caterer. Ask them if you can chat with one of their former brides to compare their experience with your expectations.
