The BRICK’s Winter Open House | Andrea David Photography

 

We can’t help but reminisce on the hypnotic romanticism of The BRICK’s Winter Open House.

It was a night for all of us vendors to seduce the senses as we put forth our best to impress the crowd. The room glowed with a warm light as sight, touch, taste, and smell were all amplified.

So much heart went into this event, and our guests LOVED it!

 

 

We had TWO food stations for our guests!

At our Barbacoa Taco Station, we expertly layered our fresh tortillas–grilled on-site– with savory Barbacoa beef and offered a rainbow of authentic toppings to customize each plate.

 

 

Roasted Bell Peppers, Cotija Cheese, Pickled Red Onions, Limes, and a Roasted Corn Salsa were the perfect accompaniments to complement our beef.

 

 

We’re salivating just looking at it all put together!

 

For Dessert, we offered our Deconstructed Strawberry Margaritas!

These “Shots Through the Heart” were a fun twist on an old favorite, and perfect for those in the crowd who might have a darker sense of humor towards Valentine’s Day.

 

 

Our second station served our Cedar Plank Salmon and Basil Pesto Risotto, one of our favorite crowd-pleasers!

 

 

We could rave about this dish forever if you give us a chance!

Our commitment to keeping the cedar plank beneath the salmon for as long as possible gives this a plate that extra personal touch we’re known for.

When it’s ready to be served, the salmon has absorbed the flavors of the cedar and masterfully paired with our decadent Basil Pesto Rissotto for the perfect balance of creamy, smokey, and salty.

 

 

We love working with BRICK, and we’re so thankful for Andrea David Photography’s gorgeous pictures!

 

This event was such a treat. We’re looking forward to working with all these vendors at events in the future!

Wedding Themes We Love! | Part Six | San Diego Catering

Welcome back for Part Six of our WTWL Series!

In Part Five, we talked about our lazy, “Sunday Kind of Love” wedding themes. If we were to categorize this next theme, we’d have to say it was for our “Hometown Honeys.

 

One of the most popular and versatile themes last season was a love for the Rustic!

Rustic Romantic, Rustic Bohemian, Rustic Vintage, even Rustic Alternative couples have loved throwing a little of this flair into almost every wedding motif.

Specifically, when we’re picturing this homey concept, we imagine romantic string lights, mason jars, lots of lace, twine, dark or unfinished wood, barns, trees, mountains, ranches, and the rural outdoors.

 

Best of all…Every dining style fits this motif!

Buffets tend to be the most popular option for couples choosing to go along with the less formal feel of this theme, but Seated Dinners and Moving Style/Small Plate receptions work flawlessly too.

 

Check out some of our favorite venues below for a little inspiration.

 

The Historic Leo Carrillo Ranch, Carlsbad California

This gorgeous 1939 ranch is rich in history and tucked into the canyons of Carlsbad. With is classic Spanish influence, wild roaming peacocks, and great outdoor space, it’s perfect for couples who are looking for that unique rustic charm.

 

We can’t blame couples for falling in love with the pastel color pallet that comes naturally here.

We’re always fans of the crisp white, sage green, warm terracotta, and the signature Leo Carrillo blue.

 

Photographer: Brogen Jessup Photography

 

Natural beauty is everywhere with succulent gardens, massive–nearly a century old–cacti, soft stone, and abundant fresh eucalyptus.

Many couples are relieved not to need extra decorations to achieve the look they want. Spend that extra cash on something fun for you and your guests!

 

Photographer: Studio 7 Photography

 

There are separate Private Bridal Rooms that are available to get ready in!

The Bride’s Room, in the historic Hacienda, is Leo Carrillo’s repurposed bedroom, and its dripping with vintage elegance.

 

Photographer: Studio 7 Photography

 

The Groom’s Room is outdoors in the historic Carriage House, and we love the masculine feel of all the exposed brick and textured beams.

 

Photographer: Studio 7 Photography

 

Farm Tables look so natural at this location and add a higher authentic quality feel with the dark finished wood.

 

Photographer: Studio 7 Photography

 

How many wedding venues have wild peacocks that freely roam around during events?

These friendly foul made Leo Carrillo Ranch their home long ago, and relish the opportunity for extra attention from guests.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mt. Woodson Castle, Ramona California

Another even older historic venue, constructed in 1921 and tucked into the mountains between Poway and Julian, is alive with rustic charm.

The Castle was decorated with hand-painted artwork on many of the ceilings, giving each room personality and unique spirit.

 

Photographer: True Photography

 

The entire Castle is built from natural stone from a local quarry meticulously pieced together created a work of art that is perfect for the Rustic look.

 

Photographer: True Photography

 

The Windmill, originally used to draw water from a well, no longer functions as anything other than a fantastic background for magical photos.

 

Photographer: True Photography

 

The Castle has multiple ceremony locations, but by far, the most Rustic would be the Oak Tree Ceremony Location.

Beneath the shade of these majestic boughs, couples can declare their love while guests feel transported to a forest glen.

 

Photographer: Fleeting Fox Photography

 

A Country Wedding with cowboy boots goes with the rustic theme like love and marriage.

We love this idea of white boots and a lace gown, exploring the flower fields behind The Castle!

 

 

The lace and boots combination isn’t only for the Bride!

Adorable, shorter, lace Bridesmaids gowns pair flawlessly with this motif.

 

 

For your tables, keep the decor simple!

Wildflowers, wood, and a few candles are all you’d need when the beauty of the mountain is all around.

 

 

Even the ceremony decor can be fresh from the farm.

Who knew that a few wood crates, candles, and some white pumpkins for a Rustic Autumn Wedding could complete your look?

 

Photographer: Fleeting Fox Photography

 

These romantic misty mountain views are unchallenged is their unique beauty.

Martina + Ty | Lisa Marie Photographie | La Jolla Woman’s Club

Vintage Elegance with a Beachy Twist!

 

 

The First Look is always such a suspenseful moment!

After a few last-minute touches to wardrobe, Ty was placed out in the garden patio and told not to peek while he waited for Martina.

 

 

With their Bridal Party eagerly watching from the windows, the love birds reunited with a light tap on the shoulder.

 

 

La Jolla Woman’s Club always allows for the best pictures!

If you’re looking for someplace with effortless class and vintage charm, this venue is perfect.

 

 

Can’t have a wedding without a ringbearer!

We love when couples involve every member of their family in their wedding plans.

 

 

These girls are ready to party!

A little bit of romance, a little 20’s vintage sparkle, and a lot of fun, these bridesmaids dresses were a fantastic choice.

 

 

Navy blue suits are timeless.

Sharp yet friendly, good for all seasons, and our favorite for versatility, this color makes everyone look great!

 

 

La Jolla Woman’s Club has three main outdoor locations with incredible backdrops for their ceremonies!

This fountain focal point also includes the gorgeous church tower and palm trees.

 

 

With Flourish decorated the floral arch for the ceremony, and we love the pops of peach in this wild romantic arrangement.

 

 

After the ceremony, guests were encouraged to share their congratulations on a piece of the happy couple’s sign-in puzzle.

Opting out of a book that will rarely get seen, we love ideas like this that can become art!

 

 

To find their seats, everyone looked for their escort cards beneath a shot of lemonade in the signature Shot Glass Wedding Favors!

 

 

The tables inside looked exquisitely set, with a mix of welcoming beachy airs and high-end vintage class.

The refined crystal cut goblets counterbalance the bo-ho chic nature of the wooden chargers and pom-fringed napkins.

 

 

TBD (To Be Designed San Diego) provided the overall look and worked closely with Ty and Martina to find that perfect combination.

 

 

With Flourish decorated the tables with simple centerpieces that complimented the elaborate tablescape, so as not to over-clutter the tabletops.

 

 

Our appetizers are always a hit with guests, and we appreciate couples who want to customize our menu to fit their specific needs!

 

 

Simple, with barley seed decoration, this delicious wedding cake was the perfect size for the love birds and their immediate family to enjoy.

 

 

 

Dessert stations with a little bit of everything are perfect for guests with different dietary restrictions.

The happy couple brought Macaroons, cake pops, and home-made Rice Krispy Treats!

 

 

Thanks to Lisa Marie Photographie for these incredible pictures, and to the newlyweds for sharing their special day with us!

We’re so happy we could help your dream day come to life.

Prom-spiration! | Ideas for the Perfect Prom

When it comes to planning your prom, it should be as smooth and stress-free as possible. Therefore, it is essential to choose an experienced and trustworthy San Diego party catering company. There’s no limit to your imagination, and we love a challenge! By selecting the best prom catering team, your event will come to life. It may even exceed your expectations!

Worry-Free, Only Fun, Prom Planning with Personal Touch Dining!

Beverages

A Variety of Exotic Shakes/Drinks/Juices

Try a beverage menu that consists of unique mocktails. Or, step it up a notch and add gourmet ice-cream topped shakes. These colorful drinks, paired to match the theme, will be a playful addition to any event. For your featured menu item, consider adding a signature drink named after your school. Your peers will love it!

Coffee Bar

With the rising popularity of small cafes, why not have a coffee bar at your catered prom event? Think about providing cafe-staples such as nitro, cold-brew, and dairy-free choices. Guests will appreciate the flexibility of several options. If possible, have the coffee bar supplied by your caterer, or from a local coffee shop. Make sure to have an expert barista running the show. This way, your guests will be thrilled to order coffee to their liking.

Popular Appetizer Options

Finger Foods

With a big and social crowd, we encourage serving finger foods and bite-sized portions. This way, you will make it convenient for guests who like to dance and mingle. Additionally, smaller servings will enable guests to try a bit of everything. Try to portion servings in individual cups, as opposed to stationed bowls. If you do, your guests will be free to move around the party.

Taco Bar & Mini Mock-garitas

Who doesn’t love tacos? These Mexican staples are an excellent option for prom catering. With endless toppings and combinations, tacos are always an excellent choice for parties. Add mini mock-garitas, and you have an instant crowd-pleaser.

Chef’s Table

Does your catering company have an imaginative chef? If so, ask if the chef would be willing to conduct a hands-on demonstration of a favorite dish. This way, guests can see the food prepared, and connect through the immersive, shared experience. It is both interactive and appealing to the senses!

All American BBQ

BBQs are a perfect option for a Summertime celebration. Consider an outdoor BBQ featuring a smoked dry rub brisket, pulled pork, and shrimp on the barbie. Pair it with local craft beer on tap or lemonade. This way, you have the perfect combination for your summer prom.

Hawaiian Luau

Another option to consider for a large, casual event is a Hawaiian Luau-themed prom. By smoking a whole Kalua pig smoked in tea leaves for hours, it becomes a tender, flavorful entree. Add pillowy Portuguese Sweet Bread, baked Mahi Mahi, and fresh Tuna Poke to round out the menu. To create the right environment, consider decorative hibiscus flowers, pineapples, and fruity cocktails. As the overall theme of a Luau is to entertain a large gathering and enjoy a feast, Luaus create the perfect environment of bringing people together.

Cultural Menu Favorites

International Cuisine

When hiring a caterer, it’s essential to find a company with a wide range. For example, your caterer should have expertise in different cultural cuisines. This way, it will help to create unique dining experiences. Instead of staple foods, why not serve Korean BBQ, or Halal Chicken and Rice?

Italian

A hearty winter pasta themed prom is a crowd-pleaser. For example, try hearty dishes such as Baked Ziti, Lemon-Basil Ricotta Stuffed Shells, Spaghetti, Carbonara, Fettuccine Alfredo, Lasagna.

 

Each Personal Touch Dining Prom Automatically Comes With:

  • A Four- Hour  Event, Two-Hour Set Up and One Hour Clean Up
  • Uniformed Event Staff, Disposable Serving Ware
  • All Needed Cooking Equipment, Buffet Tables with Linens, and Beverage Tables with Linens
  • Complimentary Fully Decorated Food Stations and Chaperone Coffee Station

 

Final Thoughts about Prom Planning

As you can see in the examples above, each tailor-made prom plan will suit the theme of your event. These are only a handful of possible ideas and meant as a starting point of things to include at your prom.

An experienced catering company will tailor your prom details to your needs. An established catering company will also provide you with options and fulfill your exact needs through their connections in the industry. For example, we strive to provide the very best in catering services for our clients, and with the utmost care.

With our years of experience working in food & beverage catering, we will take your ideas to another level beyond your wildest imagination, created especially for you in mind. We make the process convenient and stress-free, so our clients can sit back and enjoy their event of a lifetime. Don’t leave your catering to chance. We don’t just bring your creative ideas to life. With our expertise, we elevate your initial vision to be the best it can be.

Charnel + Munyoki | True Photography | Darlington House

Vintage Glamour

Another stunning wedding reception at the Darlington House!

 

Working in collaboration with Back Patio Event Design was a dream, and we loved celebrating Charnel and Munyoki’s special day!

 

This venue is so timeless in its classic beauty; the vintage elegance is unparalleled.

 

Our staff always take such care with setting the dining tables, especially when there are so many gorgeous details involved!

 

During cocktail hour, we served guests delicious appetizers and craft cocktails, like our Apple Ginger Sparkler!

Our fresh Bruschetta on crunchy Baguette Slices, drizzled in a tangy Basalmic Reduction, and topped with fragrant basil is a crowd favorite.

 

 

Their family came from all over the world to celebrate with the happy couple, so having a globe sign-in book was such a fun idea!

 

Pacific Entertainment, the DJ that evening, brought the newlyweds to the dance floor for their First Dance as husband and wife.

 

 

The sweetheart table, a true royal dais, looked like a work of art!

 

 

For dinner, guests went through our hearty buffet, eating their fill of our Herb Crusted Mahi Mahi, Rustic Chicken, and Rice Pilaf.

 

 

Our skilled staff expertly poured champagne for the toasts.

 

The dazzling three-tiered wedding cake, baked by Cakes to Celebrate, looked like one of the gorgeous decorations with all of its gold embellishments!

 

The happy couple also had a Candy Bar, filled to the brim with all white candies, where guests could pick their favorites and make goodie bags to take home!

 

We love a loud crowd for a fun Grand Exit!

Glow sticks and bubbles always make these pictures pop!

 

 

We were so honored to help these two celebrate their love, and we wish them all the best in their future together!

Wedding Themes We Love! | Part Five | San Diego Catering

Welcome to Part Five of our Wedding Themes We Love (WTWL) Series!

 

Are you looking for a more laid back, even “Lazy Loving,” kind of vibe for your wedding?

Our experts found a couple of great theme examples paired with the perfect dining experience for each!

 

West Coast/ Beachy

Beach weddings are always a favorite for couples and guests!

The soft breezes, salty air, and vacation escapes are reminiscent of Part Four of this series if you want to mix a little tropical travel into your wedding motif.

Photographer: Alyssa Boynton Photography

 

Have fun with your bridal party, and incorporate some cute beach details into their ensemble.

We love these mermaid earrings, and groomsmen could sport some themed socks or ties on the big day!

Photographer: Logan Cole Photography

 

This smart couple used an old oar from a thrift shop for their sign-in book, and it’ll look so chic as decor in their future home!

The best part of this theme is that anything that washes up could be perfect decor with a little TLC.

 

Spice up your linen options with a fun pattern.

These broad stripes are fun and just nautical enough to give the tablescape the right feel.

 

The escort shells are eco-friendly, long-lasting, and so darn cute!

Just find some on the beach and make a night of it with your friends and their most delicate handwriting.

 

Pull centerpiece inspiration from the beach!

We love the look of this “Coral Garden” made from a few succulents and a sea star.

 

Have some fun in the sun!

Beach weddings are the perfect excuse to let loose. Ask your photographer to have fun with your photo opportunities, and we’re sure they won’t disappoint!

 

 

Photographer: True Photography. Venue: Scripps Seaside Forum

 

Speaking of the Sun…

Custom shades are the perfect wedding favor for your guests!

Photographer: True Photography

 

Beach and Beer go together, like Love and Marriage.

Keep those brews chilled on a warm beach day with a custom beer koozie favor!

Photographer: True Photography. Venue: Scripps Seaside Forum

 

This theme is as beautiful as it is low-key, views like this are the best backdrops in the world!

Photographer: Alyssa Boynton Photography. Venue: Scripps Seaside Forum

 

Deep blue goblets and watercolor table numbers are an elegant way to keep the ocean idea subtly running through your tablescape.

Photographer: Alyssa Boynton Photography

 

Repurpose that junk surfboard for your seating chart!

All this idea took was a little black chalkboard paint and a steady hand.

Venue: Darlington House of La Jolla

 

This theme is super flexible for dining styles, and our experts love the idea of a Buffet style, but all three of our suggested methods work!

If you’re looking for a set up on the classy scale, a seated dinner would add a little formality, especially while your guests are going to be admiring the hard work you put into your tabletop decor.

The Moving style dinner is another excellent choice if you know your guests are likely to want to kick off their heels and eat while they dig their toes in the sand.

 

 

Garden Party

This type of wedding is just as relaxed as a beach wedding, but there’s no need to worry about sand in your shoes.

Garden Parties, like Beach Weddings, are lovely in their versatility. It’s easy to make your event more casual or formal, depending on your tastes by including a few small details.

Venue: La Jolla Women’s Club

 

Garden parties work perfectly for couples who want a romantic feel without overdoing it with excessive, expensive florals.

 

Charming tents fit right in with this theme and are fantastic for a little added shade for your guests during those peak hours in the sun.

Venue: Martin Johnson House

 

If you’ve got craft skills or are interested in DIY decor, this type of wedding would be perfect.

 

This theme is casual, and we’ve seen couples stick with traditional dining styles, such as a Buffet dinner, and love it.

A new and fun idea we would love to see during cocktail hour is a combination of a Buffet and a Picnic!

Encourage your guests to grab a basket and travel along an appetizer station, filling their baskets with tasty snacks as they go. At the end, offer guests small blankets to promote lawn lounging in groups!

 

 

Day/Brunch Wedding

Fun, comfortable, and finished before sunset, this type of wedding is a delightful treat we wish was more common!

Perfect for Sunday Events or couples who aren’t looking for a lot of fuss, just quality family time.

Photographer: Sara France Photography. Venue: Darlington House of La Jolla

 

Entertain your guests with some fun lawn games!

Incorporate vintage class with Croquet for that Victorian Era feel, or stick with the favorites like Corn Hole and Bocce Ball to please the crowd.

Photographer: Sean Walker Photography. Venue: Mt. Woodson Castle

 

Morning weddings are a great excuse to have creative cocktail bars too!

We’ve seen Mimosa Stations with fancy juice varieties and fruit toppings, but this Blood “Marry Me” Bar looks like a Sunday morning dream!

Photographer: Sean Walker Photography

Morning hours also mean perfect weather!

Here in San Diego, summer mornings are known to rival the evenings.

Photographer: Sara France Photography. Venue: Darlington House of La Jolla

Try a lighthearted floral plate to add to the Brunch vibe for your tablescape!

Photographer: Sara France Photography

Sunny mornings should come with all the right accessories, and we love the idea of parasols as wedding favors!

Photographer: Sara France Photography

Much like a Garden Party dining style, Buffets are perfect but make it a breakfast buffet, and we’re sure your guests will be thrilled!

A Moving style or having multiple Breakfast Stations would be a step up and provide a more extensive selection for guests who are picky eaters first thing in the morning.

Coming Soon!

 

Wedding Themes We Love! | Part Four | San Diego Catering

Welcome to Part Four of our WTWL (Wedding Themes We Love) Series!

 

In this section, we’ll stray away from generalized “Moods,” such as we’ve shown represented in a Romantic or Modern theme.

Instead, we’re shining a light on Specified Subject Themed Weddings.

Some couples have a distinct shared event, pin-pointed hobby/interest, or even holiday that they feel defines a significant part of their relationship, and that subject steers couples towards the theme of their special day!

Travel

Here’s a theme that has become super attractive to young adventurous couples recently!

We’ve seen so many creative ways to incorporate travel into the smallest details for a wedding.

Photographer: Sara France Photography. Venue: Darlington House of La Jolla.

Above, a talented couple was able to recreate the Adventure Book from Disney’s “UP!” used as their suggestion/sign-in book where they asked their guests for new travel destination inspiration.

Guests can even pick up personalized ticket/escort cards to find their seats, seen below!

Photographer: Fleeting Fox Photography

 

This witty Flight Attendant had her garters custom made from pieces at her job!

Photographer: Fleeting Fox Photography

 

Have guests sign an atlas to use in your future travels!

Photographer: Fleeting Fox Photography. Venue: Mt. Woodson Castle.

Use a globe as a sign-in book or destination suggestion/card box.

Have your guests fill out postcards to themselves for you to send when you’re on your adventures!

Photographer: Fleeting Fox Photography

Vintage suitcases make perfect displays for favors or photo booth props.

Photographer: Robin Harris Images

 

 

Tropical

Can’t wait till the honeymoon?

Excitement over palm leaves, tropical flowers, and island escapes have been blowing up over the last few seasons!
Honestly, we can’t blame these couples for falling in love with the neon, retro, exotic, frond-filled paradise they’ve created.

Photographer: Dear Lovers Photography. Florist: Splendid Sentiments. Venue: Harbor View Loft.

Like being dropped into a jungle, minus the heat and humidity, a wedding in a garden venue such as the San Diego Botanical Gardens, would be a perfect affordable tropical escape.

Venue: San Diego Botanical Gardens

 

This happy couple brought the exotic beaches of Cuba to their big day through the use of palm fronds.

Photographer: Logan Cole Photography. Florist: Joy of Bloom Florals. Venue: Darlington House of La Jolla

 

Correctly placed printed palms can establish the proper mood as well!

Photographer: Logan Cole Photography. Florist: Joy of Bloom Florals. Rentals: Adore Folklore.

 

Fiction

If you and your love are fans of any fictional world, we’re talking about anything from Disney, Star Wars, Harry Potter, or Game of Thrones here is some inspiration!

Have your wedding in an actual castle!

 

Your favorite books can be centerpieces or table numbers as a creative way to get your guests to their correct tables.

Photographer: True Photography Venue: Mt. Woodson Castle

 

The Cake Topper is often a personalized reflection of the Bride and Groom, why not make it a fun version of yourself?

Photographer: True Photography

 

After your event, using the centerpieces as your guests’ wedding favors is a sure way to immerse them in your favorite fantasy world.

 

Holidays

Popular holidays such as Christmas, Halloween, St. Patrick’s Day, Valentine’s Day, etc. have been used as inspiration for a couple’s wedding theme as well.

These dates can be attached to important cultural events or meaningful family moments that are influential enough to be an underlying spirit throughout the wedding.

Are you looking for a little extra luck on your big day? In the picture above, the couple wanted to celebrate their strong connection to their Irish roots, and threw their wedding on St. Patrick’s Day!

 

A white winter wedding can be like a second Christmas with the chilly weather and gathering of family. Subtle decor, like the pinecones below, can be a discrete nod to the holiday season without covering everything in tinsel.

Photographer: ABM Photography

 

Hobbies

Whether it be a specific sport, activity, or shared interest, if you and your loved one share a passion, why not bring it into your wedding planning?

Photographer: True Photography

 

For example, this couple wanted to bring their love for Baseball into their celebrations for loving each other!

Photographer: True Photography

 

This caffeine craving couple custom printed their favorite drinks onto their toasting glasses!

Photographer: Dapper Images

 

All in all, a wedding day is all about celebrating love!

If a couple loves a particular subject almost as much as they love each other, use it as a launching point for a wedding theme!

Chances are, it’ll be no surprise to any friends or family who know the happy couple, and everyone loves a customized wedding.

 

Feel free to Reach Out to our talented coordination team for answers to any planning questions!
