In February, Washington, D.C.-based Occasions Caterers won the prestigious Catersource Achievement in Catering Excellence (ACE) Award for Best Catered Wedding for a lavish wedding reception that took place in a supper club-style lounge tent at the couple’s property in McLean, Virginia.
Stand-out dishes from the expansive menu included passed hors d’oeuvres such as caviar bumps, crab in fragrant coconut milk and Hawaiian tuna poke on nori crackers; small plates such as lamb and mint pesto lollipops, petit filet mignon with smashed potatoes, and coquilles Saint Jacques; a taco cart station with miniature chicken tacos and tequila shots; a chef-attended sushi station with vegetable and seafood norimaki and nigiri; a bread boulangerie and cheese shop station; desserts including apple beignets filled with dulce de leche, miniature ginger crème brûlée garnished with candied ginger and an edible flower, and a profiterole tower; and more.
“Every detail, from the intricacy of our culinary creations to the seamless execution of each event, is a reflection of our commitment to crafting unique and extraordinary experiences,” said Danielle Redmond, Occasions’ director of strategy and revenue. “We extend our gratitude to the Catersource ACE Awards for this recognition, and to our clients and partners who have entrusted us with their special moments.”
