If you are getting married in wine country near McMinville, Rogue is hands-down the best bar and…read morecatering option available. I got married this past Saturday at the Evergreen Air & Space Museum and my guests (and husband) won't stop talking about how much they loved the food. I'd originally contacted a bunch of Portland-based catering companies who had tons of stellar reviews, but their quotes were totally absurd for what they were offering. I work in hospitality and have worked plenty of events, so I thought I'd had a reasonable budget for food and beverage -- but literally NO catering company came close. My reception was during peak July wedding season; they could afford to quote ludicrous prices because SOMEONE would eventually pay. I finally got Rogue through my contact at the Falls/Evergreen Museum. Aside from actually quoting me a reasonable price, here are a few of the MANY other reasons Rogue is amazing: - They're local to McMinville, so they know almost all the venues there and won't charge for gas/transportation like Portland-based companies - Janet (the co-owner and my primary contact) responded to all my emails quickly and in a straightforward way. No form emails. No glossy sales pitch requiring a "consultation call" and time-wasting handoffs through a disorganized event contact. I was literally like, "Here's what I want, and here's my budget. Is this possible?" She responded, "Yeah, we can make that happen, let me send you a proposal/menus for that price point." I'd had calls with 5 other companies and not ONE of them would give me this straight up info. Leading up to the reception we had tons of emails about menu adjustments I wanted and stuff, and Janet was always really on top of it. She's also extremely practical, no-nonsense, and organized... Honestly, that's a rarity in the events industry, where event planners tend to be all charm but can't remember all the glorious promises they made you on the day of your event. - I had a lot of specific things I needed for my menu due to some, ahem, "discerning" guests. I wanted some dishes pescatarian, some vegan, etc. And I personally wanted all of them to be local and sustainable. As an added difficulty, the Space Museum doesn't have any facilities for prep - or even running water. Everything had to be prepped and brought in from off-site. Janet handled all of those requests with aplomb. She even thought of things I hadn't. And everything tasted really, really good! - On the day of the event, her team was super on top of everything. They were very professional and everything was set up on schedule. There isn't a single thing I could criticize about their execution. We even had some last-minute challenges on our end, like the wine we brought for them to serve wasn't chilled because someone on our end dropped the ball, but they were totally adaptable and made everything work. Janet and her chef-husband also operate a restaurant called Subterra in the area, and they've been in the catering industry for a long time. They know what the heck they're doing! If you're where I was this time last year, overhwelmed by catering options and wondering whether planning your own wedding was a tragic mistake and maybe you should just elope so you don't have to deal with the stress of it all, just TRUST ME... Get Rogue on board. Tell Janet what you want and what your budget is (she'll have no problem telling you if it's not feasible... and probably figure out something that IS feasible for you). You won't regret it and this will make everything way easier. I survived planning my wedding reception, and you can, too! Go get 'em, tiger bride-slash-groom!

We are so grateful to Simply Plated Catering for being such a meaningful part of our wedding day…read more Our wedding was one of the most important and emotional days of our lives, and having a team that truly cared made all the difference. A huge shoutout to Breanna Kennedy. From the very beginning, she was warm, kind, and genuinely excited for us. She never made us feel like just another event, but instead made us feel seen, supported, and truly cared for throughout the entire planning process. Her patience and reassurance helped ease so much of the stress and allowed us to focus on enjoying the moment. The food was absolutely incredible. The Marry Me Chicken, roasted potatoes, and asparagus were outstanding, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how much they loved everything. It meant so much to know everyone was well taken care of and happy. And the lemonade deserves a special mention -- it was a guest favorite all night and truly unforgettable. More than anything, we are so thankful for the care and professionalism behind the scenes that allowed our day to run so smoothly. It gave us the freedom to be fully present and soak in every moment. Breanna, thank you for your kindness, excitement, and support. We will always associate you with one of the happiest days of our lives. To the entire Simply Plated Catering team -- thank you for the amazing food, wonderful service, and for being part of such a special celebration. Hands down we recommend Simply Plated Catering highly for any event, they truly are amazing and very professional. They show how much they care, while having such an immense positive attitude.

Everything from…read morethe planning, to the flexibility on the menu, to the presentation and aesthetic - they completely nailed our vision. We didn't want to do a traditional sit-down or buffet dinner and worked with Reedville to do more of a food station, heavy hors d'oeuvres set-up for our cocktail party reception. Every single item they made was seriously delicious, not just 'good' - NW salmon cakes, goat cheese tartlets, teriyaki meatballs for passed apps, and the charcuterie presentation was beautiful. Sweet chili shrimp skewers, thai peanut chicken, asparagus risotto, arugula salad, plus two custom items we asked for: pork belly bao buns and fried chicken sliders. Everything was out of this world. When we asked to do pork belly bao buns, they didn't bat an eye or even ask any questions - and then absolutely nailed it. The amount of food was perfect. They also tended bar for us with 2 signatures and a full bar and everyone was happy and drunk the whole evening :) The team was super friendly and professional, and Jessica's responsiveness was lightning fast. We would work with them all over again and highly recommend to anyone.

I had multiple guest come up to me during the wedding and tell me, unsolicited, how good the food was. It was above and beyond many of our guests expectations of what kind of food they would be served at a wedding. My now husband wanted to order excess food on purpose just so he'd have more leftovers, I cannot emphasize how yummy everything was! The day of staff of servers and bartenders were all fantastic as well. While taking pictures during our cocktail hour and away from our guests, all of the servers made sure to bring us the hors d'oeuvres and cocktail each which was super appreciated! Overall I cannot recommend Reedville enough, they were fantastic!
