On short notice, Gatherings was able to prepare a luncheon experience for almost 100 Mexican students and teachers who visited the American Space Museum for a day of touring and activities. The tour group had a budget of $12 per student for food and Janey Hicks of Gatherings worked with us and the tour leader to come up with a delicious "all-American" menu for the event! While other caterers we contacted offered sandwiches and potato chips, Gatherings arrived with herb-roasted chicken, homemade macaroni & cheese, a beautiful tossed salad with three different homemade dressings, dinner rolls and a homemade cookie or brownie for dessert. The kids and adults alike loved it and snuck back for seconds. We loved it because Janey and her staff were on-time, set everything up, delivered delicious hot food, tore down afterwards and left that part of the museum exactly as they found it. They interacted well with the students (despite a language barrier!) and grown-ups, as well as with the museum staff. We will be using them again for many if not ALL of our catering needs!

Thank you Tara and The American Space Museum for giving us the opportunity to work with you on this event. We had a great time with the students and teachers as well as the staff of the museum. We strive to make this potion of your event as stress free as it can be (and TASTY too!). We look forward to working with you in the future!

Gatherings Event Planning and Catering has catered and planned my wedding, and also has provided planning for my studio open house as well as planning for my mini sessions. She is always amazing to work with and she has an eye for the smallest of details that I would never think of. I highly recommend her!
