I'm so lucky that we were recommended to Kellymarie and Gar-niche. She emails back immediately and is flexible with all your requests. While email was our only communication leading up to the wedding, meeting her in person on the day of the wedding was as if we already knew each other so well. She was such a great bartender, a total pro, and so creative with her drinks as well. We had a list of signature cocktails and she added her own personal touch to each of them. She helped us so much with creating the menu, the shopping list needed, and helping with all other questions I had. She helped make the night so fun, I hope we get to do it again sometime. I would easily recommend her for your event big or small. Cheers!

My wife and I had Oak & Vine catering at our wedding in Templeton…read more Fast forward to the wedding day. Everything was perfect. Our guests continue to say it was the best wedding food they have ever had. We had short rib, chicken, salmon, carrots, potatoes, salad and great appetizers. The staff were extremely friendly to all the guests and to us. The entire environment between the food and the staff helped provide an incredible experience. We also booked their venue at Oak & Vine Vineyard Estates which made it an even more smooth wedding weekend. However, things were not as perfect going into the wedding weekend. Long story short, prior to the wedding day I anticipated giving a 2 or 3 star review but due to the outstanding wedding day service I have given a 5 at hopes that my experience before hand was not the normal. High level issues included extremely poor and unprofessional communication over 11+ months, many false promises made, having to pry information from the team, no contract or detailed proposal of expectations, and generally making my wife and I feel in the wrong when asking simple questions. We planned our entire wedding ourselves from Tennessee and we only had two times that we were stressed. One was when deciding who not to invite and then the 11 months working with Oak & Vine catering before my month of coordinator took over after I was nearing my breaking point. I truly hope our experience was rare or a one off. If that's the case I highly recommend this catering company purely because how good the food and the people were on the wedding day. But be cautious. Overall, everyone I spoke to are good people that put together a great event but who possibly could benefit from a business assistant.

Trumpet Vine Catering (TVC) is the best (wedding) catering provider in the SLO / Paso area, and we…read moreare so appreciative of Sara and her team for the amazing job they did at our wedding on November 5th! We had the opportunity to do a tasting pre-contract, which I would highly recommend! Tasting the dishes we were thinking of having for our wedding was a leading factor to securing their services. The top 3 reasons why I would hire TVC for catering any event is: communication, flavor, and experience. Sara is a rockstar and we would not have had such a spectacular wedding if it wasn't for her. She goes out of her way to keep the couple informed, responds almost immediately to any and all questions/requests, and is just a wonderful person to be around! From quoting to executing the onsite catering, she is there every step of the way and knows all the important details. For our wedding we selected the below items: Passed apps: ahi poke tacos, mini arancini balls with tomato bisque, and pulled pork cornbread cakes. Given that we were having an outdoor wedding in November, we wanted to have something warm for our guests. Sara provided the creative idea to mix their fabulous arancini balls with a warm soup. It was a huge hit! Salad: Pear salad fit the fall theme perfectly! Mains: Syrah braised short rib and chicken piccata. Both were delicious (short rib was more popular) and we decided to serve family style instead of plated or buffet. This was a great option for us as our guests were able to converse and pass plates around. Food came out hot, which was a critical care about for us! Sides: Potato leek gratin and charred broccolini. The gratin is one of the best potato dishes I've ever tasted. I seriously wish I had this recipe! If I were to change one item, it would have been to sub in something more popular for the charred broccolini. In addition to the great food, TVC provided pie cutting, a water station, and tableside wine services. The package they offer is perfect for your wedding and they are able to take care of any and all needs! Thank you Sara, chef, and team!

Mind you we've been talking for 5 months and you didn't realize this? If I didn't reach out I wouldn't have known. How do you have that bad of communication for something like this to happen?! Completely unprofessional. They totally set me back and wasted my time. Work on your organization and communication! Probably a blessing they aren't doing my wedding!!! PS- Even though there was no contract signed yet you guys should have reached out for me and asked for the deposit to hold the date before completely booking someone else especially with a tasting booked and a menu already written up with the proposal. No one asked for a deposit yet. If someone else was interested you should have let me know and then asked for deposit. it was wrong, regardless.

This is such a long overdue review for one of the highlights from our June wedding at Clos…read moreLaChance! Since we first started planning, my husband and I have always wanted to have frosé at our wedding reception. However, once we were knee deep into planning, we had to put frosé on the backburner to prioritize everything else. About half a year before our wedding, this was still something the two of us wanted so we found Monterey Margarita Company. From the initial interaction, Gary was responsive, transparent, and helpful. Within an hour of our inquiry, Gary sent back a response giving us an estimate. In order to help us stay within budget, Gary gave us ideas and was willing to waive some fees to help us out. That says a lot about the business! He was also helpful in navigating how many bottles of Rosé to buy and accommodated for our non-drinkers as well! From that point on, Gary would check in with us until the week of the wedding. Besides being responsive, Gary always expressed enthusiasm for our wedding which in return made us even more excited. On the day of the wedding, Gary and Carmen stopped by and checked in on us before leaving us with their two wonderful attendants. They made sure that my husband and I got to try the first taste of their frosé. Delicious couldn't even begin to describe how great it tasted! On one of the most chaotic days of our lives, it felt so good to be able to relax and have a sip of the frosé. It's an understatement to say that the frosé was the highlight of the reception. All our guests enjoyed the frosé so much and could not stop raving about how great it tasted. Even to this day, we still hear about it all the time and it makes us so happy to know that our wedding and the frosé that Monterey Margarita Company provided can have such a lasting impression!
