Amazing Food and Amazing Staff

One of the most raved about things at our wedding was the food! We did stations - salad, sliders, and sides and it was an absolute hit! There was not a single bad option on the buffet. The huge plus was the staff. They were SO accommodating and never let my husband, or I go without food or a drink. They were always asking if we needed anything or if there was anything they could get us. They truly were an all-around amazing vendor.

Fabulous cake and experience!

Meghan did an absolutely amazing job with our cake. We had a great discussion over options for each tier, and wound up going in an unexpected direction. The cake itself looked fantastic and we got a ton of raves--and were happy that the venue put aside some of each tier for us, so we could try some after the wedding! There was not much cake left over, despite having fewer guests than initially expected.

Sweet & Savory ended up being a fantastic choice for our wedding cake! Meghan was very helpful with our cake selection and design. The cake turned out to be absolutely delightful, both in appearance and taste. Our wedding guests loved the cake and raved about it! Sweet & Savory is highly recommended for your next event!

Meghan is fantastic. She's so fantastic, in fact, that I had her make the cake for my own wedding! She listens to what you want and it's delicious.
