Question

Is the food allergy friendly?

Answer

Coming from a family with lots of allergies, it was important to us to have food that everyone could enjoy! All of our meats are gluten and dairy-free. The green beans contain gluten, but the other sides are also gluten and dairy-free. We hope that these accommodations will allow everyone to have a comforting, delicious meal on our wedding day! Our cocktail hour food is a range of charcuterie, not all of which will be allergy-friendly so please keep that in mind if you are allergic to anything. *For questions on any other allergies, please feel free to email at poeschwedding@gmail.com.
