We were thrilled with our choice to have Taste Of The Robersons cater our wedding brunch! Communication with Chef Roberson and his team was excellent from start to finish. They were very responsive and a pleasure to work with while planning our menu. The food quality and presentation exceeded our expectations - guests raved about the shrimp and grits in particular.

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 was such a hit at our wedding! They provided incredible service during our cocktail hour, and our guests absolutely loved building their own charcuterie boards. Everything was so customizable, which made it fun and unique, and it definitely helped make our day even more memorable. One of our favorite touches was that they made special boards just for us, we finally got to sneak away for a snack, and it was perfect! We can’t recommend them enough
