Have You Heard of Villa East?

September 22, 2009

Celebrations Catering and Cafe C, why not one more food venture for the fun of it! 

 After months of meetings and minute details, Villa East is opening in less than two weeks.  There will now be another VENUE in town, a place where you can have a wedding , a meeting, a party, or a Jazz Music Fest!  Check out 301 North Main Street, but wait until we urbanize, modernize and civilize with some fresh paint.  In fact, out with the old vertical blinds, hotel carpet, columns and palm tree motif, and in with the exposed brick, concrete floors and lighted patio cocktail space. 

Our clients have shown nothing but positive response to our new venture, booking their weddings and holiday events site unseen.  Celebrations Catering will continue it’s exceptional business at our old location, as Villa East will be an addition, not a replacement to what we have always done so well.

Thank you Gainesville for fifteen years of superior loyalty, we are proud to bring you Villa East, a venue unlike any other in Gainesville!

At today’s wedding consultation with Katie Keena,  I listened to her describe a storybook romance of how her and her fiance Bennett met.  I think this love story should win a prize, it’s original and it’s true romance, and it doesn’t involve a bar or match.com.  (let me add that many of “us” did meet on line and/or at a bar… so no offense intended…just appreciating originality!) 

Get this, both Katie and her groom Bennett are both studying theatre at UF, she’s in stage management, he’s into film and screenplay writing.  Well it goes way back to when they were thirteen years old, in “Once Upon a Mattress”, playing appropriately King and Queen, opposite each other.  And the rest is history… 

Don’t you just love it when someone so young knows what they want, for a career and for a life partner!

Katie and Bennett’s wedding will be at the Thomas Center, next August, and is sure to include a theatre theme and some of those old photos of the couple’s pre-UF stage performances!

Yesterday fall Thanksgiving type foods were on my mind, as I was making menus for our upcoming October and November clients.  While doing some recipe research I came across these adorable pumpkin-carob doggie treats, and got side-tracked, as I often do, and found myself enticed by something new, something different.  Although we don’t normally cook for pets at Celebrations, almost all of us here have dogs and cats, so I said why not!  So, all this week, Cafe C will be offering FREE DOGGIE TREATS, fresh-baked by our chef Mike Wright.  All Cafe C customers who come in for lunch, grab a couple of sweet potato treats to take home!  Tracy Ryan, our office receptionist, has packed the cute little treats into cellophane bags with a ribbon, just to make them extra special for your furry critters.  I am always amazed how something so simple can get everybody around here excited and wanting to participate!  I also just adore the fact that we are our own company, and corporate rules don’t apply here, whether it’s changing gears to make pumpkin dog treats, or closing our entire operation last Saturday for a football game, being able to call the shots and make the rules as needed is a definite plus for Celebrations Catering and Cafe C!

“Here’s a fun tutorial that is great for any time of year and many occasions-including valentines day. Think of all the fun you could have with the notes or “fortune” inside – leave a love note, send to a friend, party favors, reveal you are pregnant, business thank you’s or favors and the list could go on. ”

Check out the Brassy Apple Blog for a Step-by-Step Instruction Guide on How to Make these Fun Fortune Cookie Favors!  Celebrations’ brides and party throwers are always looking for a unique way to give their guests something different and inexpensive, and the girls at the Brassy Apple created something I think is exceptional!  Plus, there’s a bunch more fun stuff on the Brassy Apple Blog…. You gotta see it!

Last night Mike, Pamela, John, Becky, and Michael of Celebrations Catering  joined Gainesville’s business community at the Gainesville Regional Airport for this month’s Business After Hours. We passed out boxes of our signature “catering crumbs” to generate buzz for our blog, Catering Crumbs, and to let people know about our exciting new venue, Villa East. We made lots of new friends and touched base with lots of our terrific clients.

Yep, Celebrations Catering has a fun gig (a-bites…yes, pun intended) Friday night at the Phillips Center for the Performing Arts!  We’re catering to Sister Hazel, nourishing them BEFORE they perform Friday Night, so the pressure is on!  I can’t divulge their menu, but fish was requested, and good, we’re tired of chicken around here!  That’s Michael Patterson below, a crazed fan, and one of our event planners… who hopes to get free tickets out of all this.  Loving our local celebs!  Glad to be the selected caterer!Michael Patterson Proudly Places the Sister Hazel Event on our Agenda!
