What a beautiful Blue Moon Dinner we shared on Friday night . 🌕✨
A heartfelt thank you for allowing us to use this incredible park space—it provided the perfect backdrop for an evening of connection, community, and great food.

Special thanks to for providing the delicious shrub mocktails that were enjoyed throughout the evening. Their products were also featured in all of our passed appetizers, and every bite was outstanding.

We’re also grateful to for the beautiful table settings that helped create such a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Most of all, thank you to everyone who joined us. Your presence made the evening truly special, and we’re so grateful to be part of such a wonderful community. 💙

We had a blast catering two themed events for PSAA last weekend! The first was a summer camp-inspired evening featuring a gourmet hot dog bar, bacon grilled cheese, homemade popsicles, and more.
Next up was a vibrant Caribbean-themed brunch at the arboretum—great food, amazing atmosphere, and all the good vibes! 🌸🌺
