Chef Nick was an absolute dream to work with and a consummate professional every step of the way. We had a destination wedding and had chosen a wonderful venue, the Telfair Museum, that does not have a kitchen on premises, and this scared alot of other caterers and thus restricted us by quoting us very high prices for a sit down dinner. My husband and I both wanted a sit down dinner and not a buffet for our wedding and Chef Nick was not frightened by this request and worked with us to make it a reality. When we met him, we had the pleasure of a long tasting meal with him at his home in Guyton and he helped us devise a menu that reflected the local palate as well as our own food preferences. By the time we left we had our perfect menu all finished - it was exactly the scrumptious menu served at our wedding - and a decadent cake selected. His wife Tracy is a wonderful baker and, after tasting a slice of her pound cake, we asked them to make our wedding cake.
Since we decided on our wedding vendors ten months before the event, we also were fortunate enough to become friends with Nick and his wife. We had a few calls with him over the course of the planning to make sure we were staying in our budget and that the seasonal and locally grown items would still be in stock. Nick was amazing to work with for many reasons but an important one is that he is committed to staying within your budget and making your perfect meal a reality within those confines. He is very up front about what can and can't be done within a certain range and is transparent with all his pricing. He told us up front that there would be an extra cost for more waitstaff since we had no kitchen and everything would need to be brought from the kitchen he erected outside; he then worked with us to make sure this did not affect our vision for the meal. It was his idea for us to do a duo appetizer and main plating so that we could get all the flavors and dishes we wanted and it was one of the unique and remarkable things about our menu.
The day of the wedding Nick, Tracy and all the staff at our wedding were outstanding. Nick and Tracy made sure that everything came out according to the timeline we had given them and their staff checked with us as well as our family throughout the meal to make sure we had everything we needed. Our wedding had for phenomenal food and service, with beautiful presentation, seamless service and perfectly cooked food. I have never had such delicious food at any event and it was quite possibly the most wonderful meal I've ever had - bar none. Everything was exquisite and exactly how we wanted it. The service was also impeccable and amazingly attentive; not just for David and I but for each of the guests and I think everyone was so impressed with not just the food (we keep hearing rave reviews) but about how wonderful the service was to go along with the splendid food. One of the many reasons why I'd love to relive the day is so that I could eat the meal aga
