Above and Beyond!

We got married back in September 2023, and my husband and I were originally planning to get married on Orcas Island. We met with Gavin, whom we immediately vibed with, and then after much debate and a few other factors, we ended up moving our venue off-island. My parents told us there were so many other local vendors that we should consider going with because to them it seemed extreme to have an Orcas Island vendor travel all the way to us, but we were adamant that if they were willing to travel to our new venue, we wanted to keep them. Luckily they were! We ended up getting married in Poulsbo and were still able to keep our "forest formal" theme, even though we were no longer getting married in the woods. Gavin was great with all the details, and was in contact consistently about color schemes, décor plans, while keeping things simplistically chic, and of course food ideas (though we trusted the menu completely after tasting the first appetizer we tried - the roasted hibiscus flower with goat cheese! *chef's kiss*). The menu was full of locally sourced goods - from the salmon to the homemade bread, to the delicious salad and Beecher's mac and cheese. Truly, it was so nice to not have to pour so much thought and energy into the menu because we trusted that Gavin's team would pull it off, and they did it flawlessly. Because we changed the venue, I ended up doing most of the décor myself, but I was a DIY bride, but Asher&Olive brought our forest formal theme to life with their catering and details on the buffet table. Their staff were extremely friendly, the food was phenomenal, and guests were raving about it - we didn't even have any food leftover because people liked it so much they went back for seconds! My parents said towards the end of the evening that we were right to have fought to keep them as our caterers, because everything was delicious and perfect. We heard that praise again when we visited them over the holidays. I 1000% recommend working with Gavin and his crew!

Gavin and crew were awesome!

Gavin was super easy to work with, he was very responsive and had great recommendations for us especially since we were indecisive. The day of he and his crew didn't bother me with anything and made it all happen. Food was a little slow coming out for some folks but I didn't notice, plus we we're on island time so what do you expect! Food was great. Overall great vibes, and even better food. Would recommend Gavin, thank you!

Exceeded Expectations!

I am delighted to be able to provide a review for Asher & Olive Catering. Their company did a fantastic job with the food accommodating a diverse group of people! Everything was fresh and well prepared. The presentation was also beautiful and they incorporated the theme of the wedding in the decor very nicely, too. The most extraordinary thing about this company is they were so incredibly flexible with us. My daughter and her fiancé went through multiple iterations of how they wanted their day spent. Starting with catering a small, immediate family only dinner for twelve to be done at an Airbnb on Orcas Island, to increasing the size to around 30 to be held at a venue on Orcas, to finally saying they wanted the wedding to be done on their farm on Whidbey Island (a long ferry boat and drive from Orcas) for 60+ guests. There was even a change in the wedding date along the way. Over a year's time passed in planning this wedding and Asher & Olive just kept in stride with us and all the changes. They reassured us they would be able to accommodate the wedding, even when the couple moved it off of Orcas Island! Also, having the wedding at the farm meant no available kitchen for them to use, but again they reassured us it would be no problem! They even made a trip to Whidbey Island for a site visit prior to the wedding so they would be prepared for the big day. Then come wedding day, they brought trucks and supplies and fresh food and cooked a delicious meal and made a beautiful display as well! We continue to be so grateful for their patience with all the changes and updates and especially the wonderful meal. Our guests raved about the food. We really cannot say enough about their services and HIGHLY recommend them!
