Phenomenal!
Expectations FAR Exceeded
We love B&S!
Our guests absolutely raved about the food!! We had a family-style meal, which was so much fun and such a lovely communal experience. We especially loved the tomato risotto and lemon caper salmon. The catering staff made sure that we got to eat, too (which is easy to forget on the big day!) and made us feel so comfortable. The passed desserts were such a fun way to keep people fueled on the dance floor, and the bar was pouring great drinks all night.
Thank you so much to Rachael and everyone at B&S for helping create such an unforgettable and wonderful night. We would highly, highly recommend them to anyone!
