THE PROCESS and DETAILS
Bella Vida is a full-service caterer and is set apart from other companies not only by our delectable dishes, but our spot on service and experience. As part of our catering package, we provide Table Linens, Linen Napkins, Silverware, Glassware, Water Carafes, Table Skirting, Coffee Station, and Service Staff for all of our catering events. You will also be guided along the way by one of our Catering Managers.
Since everyone has their own unique story, you can take comfort in knowing that you are in good hands and that we will be able to customize your plan to meet your specific needs.
First, we suggest you think about what your guest count will be and then decide how you want your day to flow.
Consider if you would like appetizers to add to your social hour (this is a great way to start things off before settling into dinner and the evening festivities)! Also, consider a rough budget estimate of what you would like to spend on your meal, desserts and late night snacks. This will help our Catering Managers customize a defined plan to your needs. We pride ourselves on our personal touches and the service that we can give you.
Next, contact our Catering Department to set up a complimentary tasting by filling out the form below! The tasting is a crucial step in the whole planning process. You will meet our team in person and sample many of our menu specialties. This is the perfect time to talk to your Catering Manager about your budget, your event plans, meals, desserts and any questions you may have. From this meeting, we will be able to give you several quotes based on different scenarios that can fit your vision.
This is an exciting time for Beautiful Memories! Let Bella Vida take the pressure off all the planning, so you can enjoy your special day with loved ones.
