Unsuspected Surprise

Let me start out by saying I did not originally hire Willow & Sage. They came to me thru my hired caterer who due to covid costs and current economy needed to sell off their outside contracts. This process happened 4 months before my wedding...we booked our caterer 2 years out, so to say I was panicked is an understatement. All of those nerves and stress went away within the 1st 30 minute conversation I had with Scott the owner. He took the time to explain. The process, asked me things and for decisions I didn't even know I needed to make, and was overall reassuring. From that point I has the pleasure of dealing with 3 more ladies from his office before the big day for various reasons and they all, just like Scott , were so professional and knowledgeable, and helped me stay at peace with this change. The big day finally came and Scott ran my day with the help of Andrea running the serving staff. Scott made sure everything went out without a hitch, he checked on myself and the groom throughout the night. There was never a point when we didn't have what we needed. Andrea and the rest of the staff were AMAZING , I seriously cannot say enough about how great each and everyone of them were. The food, how did I forget the food, was incredible! Every single bite was delicious, and again thanks to Scott he made sure we had a tray of cocktail hour apps waiting for us, and had our dinner plates brought out at the top of opening the buffet, in a rare occasion I was a bride who actually got to eat her meal! I would hire Willow and Sage again in a heartbeat and know that going into any event, everything would be handled.

One word: amazing

We couldn’t have asked for a better venue! This was the first venue we toured, we met with Will, he gave us an incredible tasting, and made us feel at home. We knew that no other venue was going to top the feeling we got from this place. Kara made the planning process so easy. Will and Debbie were absolutely amazing the day of making sure not just us, but all of our guests were taken care of. The food is to die for!! Plus, the renovations are stunning and was a nice surprise for us because we had toured before they started the renovations. We had the most perfect day and I would recommend this venue to anybody. 1000000 stars!!

An incredible experience!

Willow & Sage catered our wedding at the Art Factory this past December and our experience with them was exceptional. For starters, they served as much more than only a caterer when it came to both the planning and execution of what we asked for. They are an incredibly professional outfit and Scott’s (The Owner) experience and guidance was invaluable to us. The food will speak for itself when you do a tasting, everything is top notch and they offer a wide ranging variety of options. Not only are the options vast, they will work with you to customize a menu that will make you happy. Don’t see something on their menu? No problem, talk to them about what you want and they’ll create it for you. I can’t state enough that they are not just cooking and serving food; there’s no part of your Wedding that they won’t get involved in if necessary in order to make sure you’re busy enjoying your time and not worrying about how things are running. Kara whom we worked with frequently in the planning stages was always accommodating and available whenever we had questions or ideas we wanted to talk over. We had a 5-star experience!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
