Exciting Event Venues!

Yesterday, Ruth and I took a trip around Orange County, looking at venues for events.  Gourmet Caterers enjoys assisting our clients in finding the perfect venue for their event whether it be a Wedding or a Corporate Event.  We have many possible venues to host your event.  Call us and we’ll give you some ideas of perfect spots to host the perfect event.

One of the locations we loved was Giracci Winery.  They are located in Silverado Canyon.  This is such a romantic spot to get married.  The venue features a Wine Tasting Room and Oak Tree Court which is located outside the tasting room, and is nestled under oak trees.  This area is large enough for 200 guests.

This venue also would be perfect for a Corporate event such as a picnic or team building event.  The event could start with team building events and finish up with wine Tasting.  Doesn’t that sound like the perfect way to spend the day away from the office?

  

Next we visited the White House Event Center.  It is located in Anaheim and is the perfect venue for large scale events.  They can host up to 800 guests at this venue which also includes the West Wing Room.  The West Wing Room has a more intimate Night Club feel.  

As a bride can you imagine being dropped off in the limo in front of the White House?  What great pictures and memories this would create.  The interiors of both sections of the venue lend themselves to both weddings and corporate events. 

Call us to discuss your next event and Gourmet Caterers will help you find the perfect venue

VENDOR FAIR

Gourmet Caterers of Orange County, gets asked about 6 or 7 times a year to attend these Vendor Fairs, for our company these are a great way of advertising and meeting your future and past clients face to face.  We love them, we love seeing our past clients who always come up to us and reminisce about their parties, or inform us that they will soon be calling us for their next event.  We love repeat business, or should I say we thrive on it, as nothing speaks louder than a client using us two or three times for special family events. These Vendor Fairs usually take place at a Hotel, Synagogue or Church and their is usually at least 150 guests, sometimes 1000 who come through the doors.  Some are Bridal shows, some just general party fairs and some synagogues promoting Bar and Bat mitzvahs.  We always try and get a great position, mostly at the entrance where people come in, and get to them straight away when they walk in the door.  Every Vendor Fair we do something different, sometimes Mediterranean, sometimes appetizers, sometimes only hot food and sometimes only cold.  We have done Asian stir frys, brunch set ups etc…. Last week we did Deviled chicken lollipops served on Asian slaw in a Martini glass, with a little bit of Teriyaki sauce over it – delicious, mini phyllo cups with bean, and tangy avocado, mini Corn Cakes with Mango Chutney.  Bite size pieces of moist brownies and lemon squares.  We find these Vendor Fairs very exciting and usually pick up many new customers, its also a chance to see what the competition are doing, and meet new Vendors and just generally see whats new out there, from invitations to themes to entertainment.  Hope to see you at a future Vendor Show.
