Cannot recommend Teresa enough. Our wedding was 2 weeks ago and I am still in awe of how amazing it turned out. I felt completely at ease during the wedding planning process, and especially day-of. Teresa spent the extra time to troubleshoot venue-specific situations well ahead of time, thinking outside the box and then effortlessly making it happen. Goal was for everyone to be comfortable and have fun - absolutely exceeded that. Not to mention, our outdoor ceremony was stunning due to her creativity and guidance. Our bridal party, DJ, photographer, literally all raved about her. I seriously would rather not even try to imagine what our wedding would have been like otherwise. It was epic. Thank you Teresa! -

My wife and I used Great Land Events, LLC to cater and DJ our wedding at Crow Creek Mine in Girdwood, Alaska. From the moment we discovered the Great Land Events team to the very end of our wedding night, the level of service was nothing but exceptional. Great Land Events office appears to be a residential home turned into a business center and the space is great for creating an engaging and intimate discussion about event details and coordination. When my wife and I first arrived, we were surprised and immediately excited to be greeted with a choice of beverage options which included a glass of beer or wine amongst many others. This created an atmosphere to talk about our wedding needs, desires, and wishes as if we were discussing amongst close friends. After our initial meeting with Great Land Events, a quote for services and other options was provided in an expedient timeframe. Great Land Events was always on top of communication and coordination through the entire planning phases. The team was never phased by additional requests as details for our wedding were ironed out, with revised quotes following shortly behind. I highly recommend sampling Great Land Events food options as the team will provide samples for what you’re interested in as well as some additional items you did not know you were interested in until you tried them. The samples were prepared and warmed in the same manner in which Great Land Events intends to serve the food items and is a very accurate representation of how the meals will taste. On our wedding day, Great Land Events was prompt and timely, professionally attired, and ready to go with no hiccups. The team did a phenomenal job at communicating through our designated point of contact for the day, thus creating a very stress free (well as stress free as a wedding can be) environment. The DJ services were top-notch as well and did a fantastic job at selecting music based upon our previously submitted songs list. The dance floor was never empty, at least from my recollection of the night, and everyone had a fantastic time. The food was also a very big crowd pleaser; everyone at our wedding had nothing but great remarks about the service and quality Great Land Events provided. To anyone reading this and considering Great Land Events for a wedding, or any other function, I would hands down recommend Great Land Events and would say the team at least deserves a mandatory sit down to discuss your next event so you can experience the hospitality yourself. I would also highly encourage the use of Great Land Events’ Event Planning. Having gone through the process now, I would have nothing but confidence in the team’s ability to pull off any event. My wife and I cannot thank the Great Land Events team enough! -

Fantastic experience! We had used Great Lands for catering and bar service and we got so much more. Teresa was full of wedding knowledge to help our wedding be so successful with truly hardly any stress. Their food was so fantastic, everyone was commenting on it. We also had a ton of left overs which has been fantastic to snack on. The bartender was incredible, a true hero for putting up with some of our friends. -

Dallas Sent on 06/16/2018I cannot even begin to tell you how amazing Teresa and the rest of the Great Land Events crew is!
After struggling to find a caterer for my wedding in Homer, AK, I stumbled upon Great Land Events on Wedding Wire, and I am SO THANKFUL that I did!
Teresa is an absolute dream to work with! She took up the challenge of driving all the way to Homer and preparing food in a venue her crew had never been to before with complete grace. She went above and beyond all of my expectations, was extremely quick to respond via email with any questions or last minute changes I had, and was very easy to work with.
Let's not forget about the food though! Each dish was delicious, and my guests are still raving about the meals, appetizers, and service. We truly cannot thank Teresa and the staff at Great Land Events enough for such an amazing experience on our wedding day!!

User1322204 Sent on 09/10/2013Teresa at An Appetizing Affair/Alaska Chocolate Fountains was so helpful in making everything happen. She responded quickly to my numerous emails and phone calls, updating the invoice many times. She set up a buffet for dinner with salad and vegetables on the side. I opted for the buffet set-up to save a little money, and that way people can serve themselves exactly what they want, with hopefully less wasted food. I ordered beef and chicken entrees, but I didn't try either because I am vegetarian (the only vegetarian at my own wedding) and ordered food from an outside restaurant for myself. I didn't hear any comments from anyone on the food, but I remember it was all gone very quickly, so I guess I succeeded at not buying too much.
I met her in person for the first time at our walk-through at the venue just days before the wedding. Teresa was very attentive to details and attentive in person on the day of the wedding, asking me if I needed anything ("yes, water please!"), and also helpful dealing with one intoxicated and emotional guest. Teresa also referred me to the bartender we used. It all went well and I appreciate all her work.
