Weddings

It’s not unusual to have your venue and caterer chosen out and reserved about one year in advance of your wedding date. You are highly encouraged to contact all of the vendors early for the best selection and minimal disappointment. Be sure to view the venues page for ideas on where to host your special event.

Our stellar staff and professional team will create the most memorable event full of culinary delight for your special occasion. Here are some basic questions and answers that you should consider. Having thought these through will help us help you plan a spectacular event.

What time of summer are you planning your event?

Traditionally, weather in May and June is better than July and August. If planning an outdoor wedding you are advised to plan on renting tents, just in case the rain opts to 'drop in' on your event.



Do you prefer a full dinner, buffet style, or a plated presentation with individual guest service?

Based on the facility of where the reception is held, some venues are better suited for one particular type of service or another. Banquet style involves less staff and labour than plated service.

 

What time of day is your event?

Early afternoon doesn’t require a full dinner and may be considered for the most cost conscious.

Will there be a time lag between the ceremony and the reception?

Do you have a large bridal party; will pictures take extra time? Will you need to serve the guests hors d’ oeuvres wile they are waiting for the two of you to arrive from the ceremony? Will alcohol be served? It’s always a great idea to serve some appetizers or hors d’ oeuvres as guests begin to mingle and consume beverages prior to dinner.

What kind of menu are you looking for?

Do you prefer beef and seafood or chicken and ham? Would a carved meat such as prime rib be amenable to most of your guests? Or would you prefer a home style type of menu? Are you looking for an elegant atmosphere and eclectic style or are you more laid back and looking for a home style menu? Do you have out -of -town guests looking for great Alaskan Seafood? We always recommend that two entrée choices be served reducing the likelihood of having a guest that is not able to eat a particular item, when planning a buffet service.

Please be sure to view our menus to help make a decision on what to serve your guests, however, also note that we are not able to print all of our menus. If you are planning any particular flavours or cuisines to be served, please inquire about other menu possibilities as we cannot list all of them on this site

We are often asked…

You happen to have someone in the family that has a whole freezer of fish and would like to serve that at the wedding; how can we accommodate you with that product? For insurance and liability reasons we are not allowed to accept fish or game products that are not supplied through approved vendors. This eliminates the unknown possibility of receiving product that was not handled correctly.

Is a traditional wedding cake planned?



Some of the newest trends include deviating from a traditional wedding cake; having brownies, cupcakes or a selection of petit fours assembled and shaped into what appears to be a wedding cake. Miniature desserts with a variety of tastes are becoming quite popular. Fresh fruits, mini tarts and other desserts are also available.
