Menu Tasting!

We don't have a tasting option at our venue!!

We can visit the restaurant associated with it for other functions and see the quality of food, but we can't taste our specific menu options.

However!! The one reoccurring comment on every single review of our venue is the phenomenal food, so we are fingers crossed that we will have the same opinions as everyone else!!!

We enjoyed our tasting when wr had gone last year early April. We had to include a second option to try for the vegetarian.

Our menu was 4 courses last August as for dinner:

Mixed geen Salad
Carrot Ginger soup
Garlic Herb Grilled Chicken
Mushroom Rissotto (Veg)
Crème Brulée

Kids meal:
Chicken fingers w/ fries
Vanilla Ice Cream

Had my tasting and i was very pleased with food. like you we are having a buffet but our venue does things a little different. we have chicken, roast, and a vegetarian pasta as well as salad, bread and dessert.

We were supposed to do our tasting next month but our vendor has changed how they do tastings and we now go theee months before our wedding. I thought this was too close to the wedding to decide on the menu but maybe it’s just me... I’m trying to go earlier

Our venue is a restarant so they are really flexible on when we do tastings. We went last month with my dad and his partner as they are contributing to the wedding.

One of the reasons we picked this place, is because we went there for dinner to celebrate our engagement and the food is PHENOMENAL .. like seriously. The tasting was great, so much food and I can't wait to eat all the food.

Our venue does official tastings on site twice a year with one of the caterers they work with. So couples getting married may-june-july 2018 had the choice of October. August-september-october 2018 have the choice of may this year. Since this caterer was the one we wanted, we went in October. We weren't missing it.

We were so excited as it was the first time we say the venue since we first saw it that may. The food was amazing!! I had the chicken breast with apple BBQ sauce, Cajun rice and roasted veggies. My FH had filet mignon with mushroom sauce, garlic mashed potatoes and roasted asparagus. We switched halfway through our meal, both options were amazing! So happy we went with this caterer.


We chose to do buffet style rather than sit down meal. Everything will be BBQ style. Can't wait!

We almost did need a wagon! We were told at the beginning there would be a lot of protein, but even the event coordinator didn't know how many dishes the chef had prepared! We were told "last dish" and there was actually 2 more!

I think that was a great idea! Most people have the wrong idea about vegan food so pictures would definitely help ease the uneasiness!

We were originally told two months before the wedding we could go in for the tasting. But, then they introduced the 2018 menu and changed how they do tastings. Now, they offer them once a month. We ended up going this month because my fiancé had it off. He works two Sundays a month and only knows his schedule a month in advance. We didn't want to risk not being able to go together, so we went now.

I would check with your caterer when they offer their tasting! My friend was able to do a tasting before she booked a venue (and ended up not choosing that venue because they didn't like the food!)

I’m looking forward to my tasting so much now! It’s not going to be until next year tho 🙁

That sounds like I would have needed a wagon to go home!!! I am glad the tasting went well. I remember when we did ours and it was super fun!

We did our tasting a few weeks ago. The salad we selected was delicious, I could have eaten that all day. For the mains, my FH tasted the Vegetarian lasagna and I tasted our Vegan braised tofu tangine. FH loves the lasagna, I asked for a bit more seasoning in the tomato sauce on the Tangine. For dessert they provided two vegan chocolate deserts to choose between. I wasn’t a fan of either but we ended up selecting this fudge like cake. Not too many dessert options that are vegan there. We’ll have our cake later though which I’m totally looking forward to.

We are are getting married in April. We probably could have put off doing our tasting a bit later, but I wanted early February as work gets very busy for me through February into the first half of March. Plus I wanted to be able to put pictures of our food options on our website since a lot of our guests are probably nervous about a Vegetarian/Vegan wedding. Helps to see what they are getting.

That all sounds delicious! That’s very nice of them to allow you to take left overs home bc some vendors don’t let you.
I haven’t tried our tasting yet. But I was wondering, how many months do you do that before your wedding?
