    Sage and Spice

    We LOVED the food provided by Sage and Spice for our wedding. They nailed it right away - we requested everything that we were served exactly how it was during our food tasting. Our guests raved about the meal as well. Sage and Spice was great to work with. Very flexible and accommodating. Would highly recommend.

    Sage and Spice Catering's reply:

    Thank you so much, Hannah. Your wedding was so beautiful. We appreciate you choosing us to be your caterer. Enjoy every minute of newlywed bliss! :)

    Highly recommend!

    Sage and Spice did an outstanding job for our wedding! The food and service were amazing. Tori was super responsive throughout the whole planning process and her and her staff were attentive the night of our wedding. The food tasted amazing and was one of the big things our guests talked about. Tori even made sure we got some appetizers while taking photos! Highly recommend!

    Amazing experience!!

    We chose to work with Sage and Spice after reviewing several other catering options in Asheville area because of their professionalism, warmth, and variety of delicious sounding options. From our initial call with Tori, it was so easy to communicate our vision and feel like we were on the same page. We went with a buffet and passed appetizers consisting of upscale Southern/American food with some seasonal fall dishes. They made sure to make us both a plate so we didn't have to worry about getting our food during the cocktail hour or dinner. Tori and her staff did a great job during the wedding keeping the buffet line running smoothly, and quickly cleared the tables after dinner to make room for the dance floor. We are so grateful for all their hard work and for the delicious food!! Everyone was raving about it being the best wedding food they have had, and I'm a bit biased but I definitely agree!

    Sage and Spice Catering's reply:

    Thank you so much for taking the time to write this. Your wedding was so pretty - the romantic vibe, awesome music, beautiful flowers - everything was so beautiful - well done! Thanks for choosing us and wishing you a lifetime of joy! :)

    Sage and Spice was amazing!

    Tori was absolutely fantastic to deal with from beginning to end and she made sure we had everything we needed! To include a full plate for us to eat during our reception. Sage and Spice did a great job - the food was delicious and they accommodated every change we had along the way. They also offered boxed and discounted vendor meals which was really nice for cost purposes. Do not skip on the street corn shooters - they are amazing!!

    Amazing caterer

    Tori and her team at Sage and Spice were nothing short of incredible! From the beginning, they have always been super responsive and so easy to work with (not to mention the food was absolutely delicious but I could go on about that for days). They have endless options and are happy to tailor it to your needs. My husband’s aunt had several allergies and they were so good about accommodating that! I hope we can work with them again in the future, and highly recommend them!

    Sage and Spice Catering's reply:

    Thank you so so much! We loved your wedding and rehearsal. You were so fun and easy to work with! :) I wish you could get married again so we can do it all again. :) Sending you and Spencer the best wishes for a life full of joy and laughter!

    Delicious food and amazing service!

    I got married in August 2023, and I am so thrilled that I worked with Tori and Sage & Spice Catering for our food! Not only did Tori perfectly understand the kind of food I wanted, but she helped me through the entire process and answered all my questions about what I would need in terms of rentals, plates, etc. Tori was also super understanding of food allergies and restrictions and helped all of our guests, including myself, have plenty of delicious food to eat regardless of dietary needs. We seriously got so many compliments from our guests about how great the cocktail hour and reception food was! Tori and her staff were also amazing day of and made sure my husband and I got plenty of food and had leftovers too! Overall, I had a fantastic experience working with Tori and the rest of the Sage & Spice Catering team, and I definitely recommend them if you’re looking for an awesome caterer in the Asheville area!

    Emma I can't thank you enough for taking the time to write this. You all were so much fun to work with. Wishing you the most joyful marriage! Tori & Team

    Wonderful experience with Sage and Spice for our wedding!!

    Working with Sage and Spice was a joy! Even 5 months later, our wedding guests are still talking about how amazing our food was!! Could not be more pleased with how our wedding menu came together. Planning with the catering team was straight-forward, and our chef provided many incredible options for our menu. Highly recommend Sage and Spice catering for your wedding!

    Review from a certified chef

    Sage and Spice catered my daughters rehearsal and wedding last weekend 10/22/22. The food was fabulous and the service excellent. And anyone who knows me knows I am very picky. I was a little concerned about the mixture of Latin and American food options my daughter and her fiancé chose but Sage and Spice did a wonderful job of presenting everything beautifully. If you need a caterer you can’t go wrong with this company!

    Amazing Catering Service

    Sage & Spice catered our wedding and I cannot speak of them highly enough! We wanted to do something a little less traditional for our wedding meal and Tori helped us come up with the idea for an elevated taco bar. She was great to work with through the whole process. We set up a tasting beforehand and were very happy with our tasting experience. The food for our wedding was absolutely delicious and exactly what we were looking for. Our guests made so many positive remarks on how good the food was as well. The staff were all wonderful. We are so happy we had Sage & Spice cater our wedding and would definitely recommend!!

    We had Sage and Spice/Carrasco cater our wedding and they did an absolutely amazing job! The food turned out incredible and the staff was extremely friendly. Huge thank you to Tori Carrasco for all of her help through the chaos of wedding planning. I’m so grateful and highly recommend their services.

    Tori, one of the owners, was excellent to work with. Catering was very important to my daughter and son-in-law, so they made their caterer selection carefully. The caterer listened to what they envisioned, advised well, and everything was delicious. The staff professional and efficient. Very pleased!

    Can I brag that our wedding had the best food ever?

    Wowowowow! Tori and her team did an amazing job at our April 9th wedding. Tori was very direct with us and led our initial conversations, "It's your wedding. If you don't like something, we can change it." Tori's team was receptive to feedback and it made planning our wedding meal easy. We felt comfortable providing feedback and adjusting our menu until we found the perfect combination of food.
    We opted for private dining on our wedding day. After an hour of photography, we entered our suite to discover an enormous feast with a sample of all the food provided to guests. So many couples say that they did not get to eat their wedding food, but I can say that we could try all of the food we ordered. We knew we liked the food from our initial tasting, but the food tasted even better on our wedding day.
    All of our guests had glowing feedback for their meal and that they were stuffed! My husband and I are foodies and it truly was one of the best meals we've had at a wedding and one of our favorite meals in Asheville.
    Thank you to the Sage & Space team for providing us with an incredibly delicious meal that we'll remember for our lifetime. We highly recommend Sage & Spice as your caterer. They were the best!

    Sage and Spice Catering's reply:

    Dani! Y'all are the kind of couple that make this job so much fun! We LOVED your wedding and how much thought you put into food choices. Thanks for taking the time to review us! :) Tori

    Amazing and Delicious!!!

    Carrasco Catering was absolutely awesome to work with! After tasting multiple vendors, we hired them for not only our wedding but for our rehearsal dinner too! They put together an entirely separate menu for the two events and even made space for us to rehearse at the same place where we had dinner (our venue wasn't available). The food is inventive, sophisticated, and most importantly, delicious! They do a great job of serving large groups and the food still tastes good when the last folks are served. Tori was amazing with communication and they were super flexible when it came to deciding on our menus and timing. I would highly recommend them!!!

    Amazing caterer

    I booked this caterer for my destination wedding before even doing a tasting because Tori was so responsive, knowledgeable, and flexible from the beginning. They will work on a custom menu for you and make it special. The pricing was reasonable and the food was delicious when we finally had our tasting with chef Ricardo. On the day of our event, the food was served on time, it was delicious, and their catering staff was on point. So grateful I found this caterer!

    Great food, great service!

    We are so happy to have hired Carrasco Catering for our wedding! With regards to the planning process -- Tori is VERY responsive and was quick to offer options for flexibility and variety for our two-day Indian/Brazilian/American wedding. Our wedding was in the Nantahala forest (about 1.5 hours from Asheville), which created some additional logistical issues for the catering staff, but Tori was on top of it and very reassuring that it could be done. There were a couple snafus that were quickly resolved by Tori and our planner (items not included in the catering kitchen at our venue that we needed), so it was all pretty smooth on our end!

    About the food -- Ricardo is an excellent and very creative chef! We had so much fun at our tasting and appreciated his pairings and suggestions. The food at the actual wedding was spectacular and our guests really enjoyed it as well! We had an Italian menu for the first night and a Latin menu for the second night, including churros filled with dulce de leche (A HUGE HIT!). The food was just as flavorful as in the tastings and served hot (something that hasn’t happened at other weddings I’ve attended). Finally, the staff were SO kind to us -- bringing us plates of food and checking on us regularly. I’ve heard horror stories of the bride and groom not eating, and Carrasco was a huge help at making sure we ate everything we wanted!! Our venue also commented that the kitchen area looked great afterwards, which helped us in keeping our deposit. We would absolutely recommend Carrasco Catering!!

    Amazing and unique caterer

    We booked Carrasco before even tasting the food because we had such a good experience with Tori right off the bat, and I am so glad we did! My husband and I spent a long time living and traveling in Mexico and South America, and Carrasco arranged a delicious and unique menu with food from all our travels. The food was so delicious, and we got so many compliments from our friends and family. Tori was so responsive and helpful throughout the process, Chef Ricardo was awesome, and the staff that Carrasco provided for our wedding were amazing. We could not be happier with our choice to use Carrasco and definitely recommend them to others!

    Delicious and Unique Wedding Food

    We knew we wanted something different for our wedding food and Carrasco DELIVERED! We met with them over a year in advance to plan the menu and they worked with us until a week before for final changes. We went with a charcuterie spread for appetizer hour which was BEAUTIFUL and 2 dinner stations. One with fajitas and street corn, the other with dumplings, fried rice, and bulgogi. Also don't sleep on the smoked salad - it has CHOCOLATE in it and was a huge hit. We tasted everything before putting it on the menu and they worked with us in changing the flavors for any notes we had. It was PERFECT and one of the top things talked about at our wedding!

    Wedding 9/26/2021

    We can't say enough about the Carrasco team. Not being from the Asheville area, we were concerned about how we would find the right caterers for our wedding but from start to finish Tori and Chef Ricardo were so helpful. Tori is a rock star.... she returned emails quickly, never acted like we were bothering her when we called, and both Tori and Chef Ricardo were so easy to work with and very creative when planning out our menu. The day of the wedding went without a hitch and the food was wonderful. We received so many compliments from our guests! Tori and Chef Ricardo have become some of our favorite people. They made planning the food for a destination wedding easy!!

    Amazing Caterer!

    I am a wedding planner and was able to work with Sage & Spice on a wedding at JuneBug in Asheville and they were FANTASTIC. They were so on top of communication throughout the planning process, on wedding day they were on top of things and so efficient and the food was soooo good. Highly recommend!
