We recently had the fortune to cater a National Association of Catering Executives, San Antonio dinner and cocktail reception at Rio Plaza in downtown San Antonio. Our full service catering package included bartending services, coffee bar, linens, reception tables on the patio and floral centerpieces.

The three-course seated dinner menu consisted of:

Tomato Salad
Sliced tomatoes topped with feta cheese, capers and light vinaigrette dressing served over mixed greens

Chicken Roulade
Our tender breast of chicken, hand-rolled with fresh spinach and feta cheese.
Finished with a roasted red pepper sauce and served with garlic mashers and fresh grilled asparagus.

Peach Cobbler a la mode
Our homemade peach cobbler served with cinnamon ice cream

A coffee bar was also provided – giving guests to option to customize their latte or freshly brewed coffee to their preference. Cappuccino, anyone?

If you are interesting in our catering services at Rio Plaza or elsewhere throughout San Antonio, give us a call at 210/340-1770 to schedule a consultation with one of our event specialists.

There are so many occasions to celebrate – from weddings to anniversaries – and of great celebration is that much anticipated day of retirement! We recently were selected to cater this most joyous occasion, providing food, tables, seating, linens and floral decor for a private party.

The main menu was a potato bar with assorted toppings of cheese, sour cream, bacon bits and chives. Guests also enjoyed tray-passed Chicken Diablo and Beef Wellington. These entrees provided guests the opportunity to easily mix and mingle while enjoying bite-sized delights.

If you have an upcoming celebration or gathering, we would be delighted to cater. Give one of our event specialists a call at 210/340-1770 to discuss various menu options, including both buffet, tray-passed cuisine and sit-down dining.

We love this winter wedding from Grandberry Hills! Nothing says elegant, winter wedding like black, white and red. Additionally, the venue was appropriately decorated with Christmas trees – who wouldn’t want a winter wedding?

When the bride came to An Event to Remember to coordinate their full-service catering, we knew our black and white damask runners would be the perfect accent for her tables. Red linen napkins and menus topped black chargers to round out this evening reception.

The tables alternated between tall glass vases and 29″ silver candelabras. These center accents were adorned with an array of assorted red florals, including Freedom Red Roses, Red Asatic Lilies and Red Astromerias along with fresh greenery of lemon leaf and seeded eucalyptus. Additionally, the table was sprinkled with red rose petals and small votive candles.

The seated dinner menu consisted of the following:

Traditional Garden Salad: A field of mixed greens with fresh cucumber wheels, garden cherry tomatoes and shredded carrots with a choice of Ranch or Italian Vinaigrette dressing

Chicken Picatta: Tender breast of chicken with a rich creamy lemon butter capers sauce garnished with fresh garden chopped parsley

Mixed Grilled Vegetables: Fresh garden egglant, red onion, carrots, mushrooms, asparagus and sweet peppers frilled and served julianna style

Garlic Mashers: Our fresh red potatoes, hand-mashed with butter and cream seasoned with garlic, spices and fresh garden rosemary

Children’s Menu: Chicken fingers with macaroni & cheese and tater tots

A few weekends ago we catered and provided florals and linens for a wedding at the San Antonio Museum of Art. True to the elegance of the building itself, the wedding colors were black and ivory – perfect elegance for a beautiful, classy wedding.

The outdoor wedding ceremony reception had an aisle covered with linens and outdoor lights, and the altar was adorned with tea light candles – so beautiful!

They say rain on your wedding day is good luck. However, if your event is outdoors, you might consider this anything but fortunate circumstances.

Luckily, the weather for this recent wedding in Blanco, Texas at Vaaler Creek Golf Club was gorgeous. An Event to Remember provided full-service catering – gourmet food, linens, floral decor and bouquets.

The ceremony was held outside by the water – stunning for photography! The reception was also outdoors on the patio – with a gorgeous view of the sunset. Congratulations to the newlyweds!

A few weekends ago we provided tables, chairs, floral decor, bouquets and linens for the ceremony and reception at Seekatz Opera House in New Braunfels. This venue is perfect for large weddings, with seating accommodations for up to 500 people.

The colors were bright mango and tangerine, and the centerpieces rotated between large tree branch candelabras and shorter wrought iron bouquets. Enjoy!

Last Thursday, the Red Berry Mansion hosted a huge social to raise money for Fiesta San Antonio. If you haven’t been to the Red Berry Mansion before, you’ll be kicking yourself when you view these photos! The mansion is beautiful and the property is perfect for any type of event – whether corporate gala or wedding.

An Event to Remember provided all decor, catering and drinks. We were honored to be part of this worthy cause and look forward to seeing many of you again at all the Fiesta festivities in April.

Looking for ideas for your fall wedding? Chocolate is an extremely versatile color, and when combined with a splash of bright color, the design can be taken many wonderful directions!

These photos are from a recent wedding reception at the Witte Museum. The bride selected Chocolate Brown Satin Linen with a White Crush Overlay. Matching Chocolate Brown Chair Sashes were tied to the white wooden chairs.

Guests’ taste buds were tickled with a dual entrée consisting of bacon-wrapped filet, chicken marsala, garlic mashers and mixed vegetables.

Hope we got your reception decor ideas – and taste buds – dancing!

Ivory and cream will always reign as the traditional beauty for all wedding receptions. This is why An Event to Remember was ecstatic to provide our decadent Ivory palette for a recent reception at the Bright Shawl in San Antonio.

The table linens were our Ivory Rosette, couple with Ivory chair covers and sashes. Each table was additionally topped with gorgeous branch tree Candelabras, with floral accents.

This exquisite, traditional combination is breathtaking!

This couple selected a black and white themed wedding, with splashes of coral. The punch of colors took a simple, refined color scheme and added pizazz!

An Event to Remember provided all the linens, with alternating table colors: black/white damask and black with damask runners.The chairs were fitted covers with black satin sashes.

We also made their centerpieces – coral roses with salmon spray roses. We LOVE this color scheme and the playfulness of the damask linens.

Congratulations to the newly weds!
