As a catering company, part of our role in the industry is to help educate the public on some things they may not know about the event planning. For many Brides, their Wedding and Reception is their first attempt at planning and organizing a large event. Our owner Mary Weary, with her 36 years in the food industry, successful catering business, and vast experience in the bridal industry is a natural fit for mentoring and teaching newcomers. She loves to share her knowledge, brainstorm on innovative new ideas, and spend time talking with others about what she loves best, Food!

This March, She taught this very type of class at the Brentwood Library. In “How to Plan Your Wedding Reception,” she covered things such as budgeting, venue selection, menus, and how to pick a caterer. Wedding Receptions are the biggest part of the event budget and as such, require detailed planning and preparation. At the Library, the class participants shared many of their ideas, problems and questions they had encountered while planning their big day. Mary brought some appetizers for everyone to try including a Cheese Display and her Homemade Spinach Dip.

Mary looks forward to doing a few more of these classes this year. If you have any questions or topics you’d love to hear Mary speak on, please feel free to send us a message. We’d love to hear from you. Be sure to watch for our next event!
