The photos speak for themself. Melissa is a magician with a grazing table. She went for the full WOW. Everyone was shocked and delighted. I’d also like to point out that they were AFFORDABLE!! I was quoted 3 to 5x what they quoted me by other restaurants that would have done half of what they did for us. I had 5 chefs (including one James Beard nominee) on my guest list and every single one complimented the food. Lakeland BBQ’s crew were truly fair and Melissa was the absolute best from start to finish. The staff was incredible and so attentive too. They have my business for life, from their incredible bbq to their grazing tables (they do Tex mex and tasty Italian too!) I won’t be booking anyone else but them!!

To start Mrs Tiffany & crew were asked at last minute to cater my son’s wedding. Literally 2 weeks prior. Throughout the short timing she kept in constant communication with the bride & us. Her presentation & the esthetics were far beyond what we could imagine. My son is in his honeymoon in Jamaica & still asking is there any more chicken left. The bartenders were top notch as every adult was very pleased. Tiffany went well above & beyond recognizing that the young couple didn’t consider a few necessary things. She went from Chef, to wedding planning, checking off all things needed. Im definitely using her again for future events.

We understand every wedding is unique and every budget is different that’s why we offer a free consultation to make sure you get exactly what you want.

My fiancé and I booked Leslie to cater our wedding. Our wedding is a year from now but I’d like to leave a review for any future bride considering booking Leslie. She is a delight to work with! She answers all inquiries in a timely fashion. Her menu is vast, so many delicious options to choose from! We did a tasting with her and everything was so good. It was hard to decide what we wanted to taste because she has so many options and during the tasting it was hard to pick what we wanted to serve at the wedding because everything tasted so good! Lastly, you will not find better prices than hers. She’s extremely competitive and you’re getting home cooked style meals for her prices. You’ll be pressed to find someone who has better prices, especially someone who makes food as good as hers. She has a talent and passion for her work and has been nothing but wonderful to work with. We can’t wait to have all our guests try her food at the wedding. Don’t hesitate to book her for your wedding or next event!

At The Grazing Pony, family has always been the heart of everything we do, including the inspiration behind our name. Aspen, our founder’s beloved horse, represents the warmth, charm, and sense of community that we strive to bring to every event. In June of 2024, our founder made the bold decision to leave a successful marketing career to be more present at home, yet still wanted to channel her passion, creativity, and event planning expertise into something meaningful. This business is the perfect blend of both worlds, allowing her to be a stay-at-home mom while continuing to create memorable experiences for others.

The Grazing Pony made my shower so special with their bottomless cannoli! We loved that they were able to take our favorite desserts and turn them into creative cannoli flavors. It was such a unique twist and way more memorable than just setting out cupcakes. My guests are still talking about it, and it was the perfect sweet touch to the day!
