All Organic Catering- Pasadena Catering

Organic catering is Eco Caters specialty and at the wedding of Vicky and Mike on October 17th, 2009 we were able to showcase our many skills. It was held at the beautiful Japanese American Museum in Pasadena. The décor was exquisite, the colorful lanterns hanging from the walls was a perfect complement to the rest of the museum. Once the beautiful ceremony was completely, stationary hors d’oeuvres were set up in the courtyard. There was a chef’s choice cheese display with market fruit and preserves and vegetable crudités with roasted onion dip and house ranch.

While the bride and groom enjoyed conversation with their guests before dinner, more hors d’oeuvres were being tray passed. Those startes consisted of roasted chicken with avocado, sweet corn, and fermented black beans; grilled shrimp with mojo and pineapple; and asparagus with crispy jamon. The truffile grilled cheese seemed to be the favorite of all the appetizers, as guests were reaching for their second and thirds.

Organic catering can definitely impress those taste buds that have never had the pleasure of really exploring what local fresh ingredients can taste like. For dinner we served a stellar salad mix with pumpkin seed, shaved purple onion, tomato, and sweet pepper vinaigrette. The guests’ then had the\ choice between ancho crusted ribeye served with golden beets, horseradish, and chive; herb crusted chicken breast with truffled potato and grilled squash; and the vegetarian option, spaghetti squash with portobella chimmichurri. Although some guest were skeptical about an all organic wedding, after getting a taste of what Eco Caters had to offer, people were very pleased and many asked for business cards.

Apple pie is a favorite dessert of both the bride and groom, so after dinner warmed apple pie was served to all guests that chose to enjoy something sweet after a filling meal. The event photographer Rob Greer took many beautiful artistic pictures which can found on his website http://www.robgreerweddings.com/blog/. The wedding came to a conclusion with all guests dancing the night away, and a very satisfied bride and groom.  Eco Caters has been doing Pasadena Catering since they opened in 2007 and this was a very nice event.

Advice for Brides Looking for San Diego Catering – Organic Catering

Adam Hiner, co-owner of Ecocaters; which specializes in organic catering, gives a few wise words for those busy brides planning their weddings published in the San Diego News Room website:

“First, figure out, with or without your wedding coordinator’s input, some kind of a budget. With the benefit of a budget your wedding coordinator can help you with every step of the process, including finding a venue, which should be the top priority. When looking for a venue, remember some venues require you to use their catering, some have preferred catering lists and some will let you use any caterer you want.  If you want flexibility with your caterer, use a venue that will allow it.”

In addition to a few practical tips, Adam also includes valuable advice that many stressed out brides may overlook.

“Make sure to implement your own style and creativity in all aspects of your wedding.  If someone else picks everything out for you, it might look nice, but it won’t be a reflection of who you are.  The more involved you are, the better your wedding will be.”
