Danielle, on July 11, 2019 at 20:57 Posted in Wedding reception 0 4

Hello, I am having a hard time finding a caterer for our wedding. If you could be of assistance and think we can work together or can recommend anyone please respond or message me. TIA

Venue: Ruthven Historic Site (Cayuga, ON)
Date: September 5th, 2020
Guest count: 70
Budget: 5-6K (We can discuss)
Meal type: Passed and stationed hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour with a buffet reception to follow.

What we need: 3 staff for 8 hours (1 head wait person, 1 bartender, 1 wait person) All staff must be smart serve certified and insured. Bride and groom to purchase SOP and liability insurance. Note: The venue has an indoor and outdoor prep area with hot and cold running water, electrical outlets and one standard refrigerator. If needed, the bride and groom will rent a portable industrial fridge/freezer. We will also rent a tent (with your recommendation on size) for the set up of the buffet, which will be right outside of the coach house were the reception will take place.
