At Personal Touch Catering we have the staff and the experience to orchestrate the wedding of your dreams. We've partnered with experts in their fields to offer everything you need! Let's create an event that expresses your uniqueness while honoring the traditions you cherish and your budget!

Read on to learn more about our approach to weddings.

Planning & Coordination

  • An initial consultation is helpful to establish a budget and prioritize tasks. This usually takes about an hour and leaves you with a refreshing outlook. Many couples find that they’re able to plan their entire wedding with the tools given during this visit. If you aren't sure what style wedding you want or which location to choose, we can help you visualize it, pulling together your ideas to create the wedding of your dreams. If you already have a complete vision of your wedding, you can rely on us to implement your wishes in every detail.
  • Once you’ve selected your wedding site, your next step is to determine which venders might be best for your budget and style. As always, we do as little or as much as you need. Finally, once the day approaches, you need someone to be there overseeing venders and making sure everything is exactly as you’ve envisioned it. Simply put, we take the stress out of wedding planning with our "Personal Touch" wedding coordinator package, We will take care of everything for you at the reception site. We coordinate with all other vendors for you with those last minute changes, special requests, timing, placement of flowers, favors, packaging up left over food, cutting your wedding cake, the list goes on. Our $250.00 fee covers all these things and more. Ask about it at your first meeting and we will include a free "Brides" basket of goodies to take with you on your honeymoon night when you request this service.

Buffets & Delectables

  • We specialize in buffets for weddings, as reception foods are usually served buffet style. Plated dinners are labor intensive and often used where the meal is the centerpiece of the event. Our buffets are beautifully dressed to compliment the delectables being presented. Other than a floral centerpiece or silk decorations, the buffets are presented in simple elegance. Everything is fresh prepared and presented at peak flavor.
  • Buffet hors d’oeuvres and dinners allow guests a greater variety and selection at an affordable cost. Afternoon hors d’oeuvre receptions typically consist of between 5 and 7 selections while evening affairs consist of between 8 and 10 more substancial selections since it is often a substitute for dinner. You see how time of day helps us to determine a menu and serving style.
  • Buffet dinners allow for guests to be seated and begin dining simultaneously and then move to the buffet at their leisure, minimizing wait time. Providing appetizers at stations or by passing them to your guests will help to curb any hunger that may set in between the wedding ceremony and the start of dinner. For added effect and convenience at a reasonable cost you may want to consider multiple buffets or carving stations.

Floral Designs & Decorations

  • By no means should the importance of decorating be underestimated. Even the most elaborate ceremony and reception sites can use a bit of decoration to create a special atmosphere for your wedding. This is no ordinary event, so why settle for everyday decorations?
  • All of our buffets are presented with either fresh floral or silk arrangments. We pride ourselves on presenting each event with the utmost style and provide seasonal silk arrangments for the buffet at no charge if you decide not to include fresh flowers for the buffet in your budget.
  • If you decide on fresh flowers, the first step is to decide what kind of theme you want to create. If you've already decided on a certain atmosphere or decoration, use it as an idea for a floral theme. For example, if you love roses you can use them in all the floral arrangements, but you can also create a theme by sewing satin roses on your gown or incorporate them into the decorations on your cake. Themes can help to improve the end result while staying within your budget.

Staffing

  • The purpose of our catering staff is to handle the details, leaving you free to enjoy your guests and yourself! As needs vary, we will be happy to discuss with you the staffing requirements specific to your event. Our Catering Staff is fully prepared to manage a high level of attentiveness for groups of all sizes, styles and tastes!
  • Average time allowed in addition to the actual duration of your event for setup, breakdown and cleanup is 3 hours. Staffing charges are $18.00 per hour per wait or culinary person required for your event. We suggest one wait person per 10 - 20 guests for a seated event, one wait person per 20 - 50 guests for a buffet event. A five hour minimum charge is required for a staffed event.

Equipment Rental / Tenting

  • Personal Touch Catering can handle rental of everything from simple propane heaters to fully enclosed and installed tents to shelter your guests from inclimate weather. The options are truly endless. Don't let the task of preparedness intimidate you. From chairs to candelabras, we will help to ensure that the proper items are on hand for your special day.
  • We are happy to annouce that we can now offer our brides a broad selection of classic and contemporary wedding cake plateaus, candle and table top enhancements and other rentals that will add flair to your event!
