Thankfully, a friend had been to another wedding saved by BIG and connected me to Chris. Chris was phenomenal. He found a perfect venue, reasonable vendors and made the planning experience low stress and catered to our vision. There are a LOT of people in the wedding industry that don't shoot straight. They manipulate through emotional excitement about your big day. Chris isn't like that. He is kind, direct and honest about what it takes to make your day possible. They are an East Coaster's dream. Chris personally handled details like hanging lights, setting up chairs and ensuring all of our vendors were paid. The best part was that my family, on the day of the wedding, simply had to show up and enjoy it. The food is OUTSTANDING. Coming from a foodie- the flavors and presentation are perfect. My husband, from Mexico, commented that the tacos they served were some of the most authentic he has tasted in the states. In the interest of being authentic, Chris adjusted the typical take on a mojito to serve my husband's preference for it to be made with brown sugar. He even found a specific kind of fish from my husband's village and prepared it for the evening. Stunning service! I could literally write a thousand more things about Chris and his team. But in the They are phenomenal, down to earth, follow through with perfection and do it all peacefully. You never have seen a staff of a caterer more relaxed and on their game! I love BIG, Chris, Ariel and their team and would recommend them for ANY event regardless of size. They're quite literally the best.

Despite everything that was going on, I decided to move forward with it and host my shower at The Inn at Longshore. Having the event outside with an intimate group was the PERFECT decision. We were blessed with an absolutely gorgeous late summer New England day and held the shower under a (beautiful sailcloth) tent, overlooking the water. You really can't ask for a better view! The teams at the Inn and On The Marc were extremely attentive and on top of every single detail leading up to the day making the planning process seamless. Having been a former employee of On The Marc, I knew that there was no other food that I would even consider serving at my party (that also means that I had pretty high expectations because I know what it should taste + look like). The food was beyond delicious (wood fired mini pizzas, hot buttered lobster rolls, hummus bowls, gazpacho...just to name a few). And the desserts - WOW (I have quite the sweet tooth so these were also very important to me). Beautifully colored French macaroons, a naked carrot cake, cookies, etc. Not only did they look beautiful but they TASTED soooo good. The staff were excellent, top notch. I know how important it is to have good staff at an event and they did not disappoint! I really wanted to be able to enjoy the day and feel like a guest at my own party - which was exactly what happened. Hats off to On The Marc for making this such a wonderful and special day for me!

From the moment we walked into our tasting to create our delicious menu, to last minute changes, to executing perfect food the day of, I want to relive this experience again and again. My guests raved about the menu, and some favorites included fun takes on cocktail meatballs, shrimp and grits, and chilled tomato soup shooters. The food was beautiful and displayed like it was in a magazine. Karen and her team were also in charge of staffing my event. This meant not only did they feed my guests, but bussed the tables, cleaned up trash, set up my pie display (Karen took it upon herself to clean out her stock of cake stands and create the most beautiful tables ever) and EVEN mop my bathroom trailer when it sprung a leak. As guests started to leave, SKBT cleaned every table and organized my decor. Best of all, Karen and her team were friendly and attentive the entire night. My bridal party had their own tray of appetizers waiting for them immediately following the ceremony, and all night the staff checked in on my husband and I (as well as my parents) to see how they could help. I eagerly look forward to having another event so I can hire this team again.

Service was very good and the vibe overall was laid back and enjoyable. Cocktails were very good (loved my old fashioned). We had a bunch of appetizers and everything was pretty good. Loved the grilled seafood appetizer that had an amazing sauce with it. The pea and strawberry salad was good but was overdressed, so it was a little soggy but the flavors were good. My main dish was the short rib tater tot appetizer which was not what I expected (it was four big tots with the short ribs mixed in) but it was still good. We all split a blueberry buckle for dessert and that was amazing. Will definitely go back!
