I used Verbena for my wedding and they provided cake + mini dessert bar. The whole process was super easy from the initial conversations, tasting, to the big day!! Emma was super attentive in making sure we got everything we wanted. Everything was super delicious and my husband said that was the best key lime pie he has ever had. Thank you for being part of making our big day extra sweet & special!

Verbena events desserts were DELICIOUS!!! I haven’t stopped craving their glazed donut since I had one at our reception!! Many of our guests claim to not have sweet tooths, yet our dessert table was cleared out by the end of the night, that’s how good their desserts were!! We had cupcakes, macarons, donuts, and cookies and they were all a huge hit!! They also did a beautiful job displaying all the desserts and labeled allergens with the help of our amazing wedding planner Sierra Hollar from Plain with Sprinkles! I would highly recommend hiring Verbena Events for your desserts at your wedding!! Our guests loved them and are still talking about how good each item was!! They also were so easy to communicate with and made the booking and dessert choosing experience a breeze!

Verbena did an amazing job catering for us. My husband Jeff and I are both vegan (and work in the animal protection space), and it was important to us to have a fully vegan menu at our wedding. They never made us feel guilty about it (which was ... not the case with everyone we talked to!), and focused instead on making delicious food that the non-vegans in our family thoroughly enjoyed!

For canapés, we had grilled peach bruschetta on focaccia crostini, Impossible sliders, and spinach artichoke tartlets. For our dinner buffet, we did vegetable lasagna and shepard's pie for the mains, plus cilantro and lime roasted corn, roasted balsamic green beans, and za'atar roasted potatoes for sides. And then ... 100 amazing mini pies (peach, key lime, apple and pecan)!

Everything tasted absolutely amazing (people raved, and it opened some eyes to the fact that "vegan" food doesn't need to be boring or scary or whatever ... who doesn't love pasta and pie?!) and it was such a pleasure to work with E and Emma. They were so kind and welcoming during our tasting, and communication was smooth throughout.

We also rented vintage plates, cloth napkins, water goblets, and silverware from them, and thought the dining room looked absolutely beautiful.

Cannot thank the whole team enough!

Verbena was amazing to work with! We had A LOT of dietary restrictions (vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, egg-free, banana-free, avocado-free... etc You get the picture 😅) and yet we were able to accommodate everyone. They were super nice and offered suggestions to us which was amazing! Somehow on our wedding day our dessert stands went missing (as things tend to do on wedding days lol) and yet they were able to make a beautiful table of desserts for us. They were in constant communication with us and everything was just very easy and smooth with them. Highly recommend ☺️.

Verbena was amazing! After our first tasting we were so torn on what to serve because everything we tried was delicious! After finally deciding on the items, the food at the ceremony was a HIT!!! We have received so much feedback from so many guests praising all the elements - hors d'oeuvres (chicken-waffles, meatball sliders, grazing table), the main course (brisket, grilled chicken, green beans, veggies, mac n cheese), and the deserts (too many to name!). Thanks again to Emma and Eistir - I highly recommend considering them for catering your wedding!

Verbena made planning a wedding, choosing cake, & selecting meal options so very easy and fun! They were a one-stop-shop for our cake, catering, and dish rental needs. They are so friendly, helpful, & professional in every interaction, and you can tell that they love what they do. We have some cake snobs in our crew, and they LOVED the icing on our cake! 10/10 recommend for ANY catering/dessert needs!

Emma and Eister were an absolute joy to work with! They helped us choose which meals would best represent us and were so flexible with trial runs and dealt with my need to control by showing us exactly how they would be plated and presented. All of our guests complimented on how delicious the food was. We were blown away by this team!

Emma and Eistir were amazing to work with for our wedding catering and cake. Emma was very responsive while we planned our tasting and final menu via email, and Eistir did an incredible job of translating our vision for appetizers based on our favorite restaurant meals into a reality. Our BBQ buffet was delicious and a total hit! The cake was moist, beautifully decorated, and Emma provides a ton of different fillings and flavors to choose from to make it your own! We had a wonderful time working with Verbena for our wedding catering and cake and would absolutely recommend them for any catering in the Asheville area!

This vendor was great to work with. The food was delicious and staff was very helpful.

Emma and her team are amazing! Not only was their food absolutely delicious, but their professionalism was second to none! We hired them for cocktail hour, reception, bartending, and the cake, and Emma was very flexible with us. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect on the day of our wedding. We could not have been happier! We HIGHLY recommend Verbena Cakes and Catering!
