Less than 30 days out from our wedding we were informed that we would need full service catering…read morestaff per our venues requirements. We looked through the recommended list of vendors and found Events by Wise. I reached out to Shari and she quickly responded with all the information I needed. Shari's team consists of not only a full service catering staff but also a team of experienced individuals and coordinators- which makes them an even better full service team to hire because they understand weddings and what is required for a successful event. Shari and her team went above and beyond to assure I had no worries at all! On top of this, the price was very reasonable!! The service included more than what we were quoted for elsewhere. We were able to offer the type of service we could only dream of providing. Water, wine and champagne were served table side. Our hors d'oeuvres were served on elegant platters by Shari's team. They placed all of the chargers, plates, cutlery, napkins and menus. They assisted wherever needed and assured everything was taken care of. I decided very last minute that I wanted a champagne welcome shelf for my guests and Shari's team executed this perfectly!! Shari's team worked gracefully with my wedding planner, caterer, and the events manager to make my wedding everything I envisioned. I would 100% hire Shari and her team again! After booking with Shari, my anxiety and stress disappeared. I knew, without a doubt, that I was in capable hands and could finally relax. Thank you Shari, Meredith, Megan, Andrea, Jackie & Austin!

I recently served as Matron of Honor for a wedding coordinated by "Events by Wise," and I want to…read moreshare my observations regarding my sister's (the bride's) treatment by Shari. One major issue was the lack of personal presence. Just three days before the wedding, Shari called to inform my sister that she would not attend due to a conflicting commitment to her granddaughter's 16th birthday. Although the contract stated Shari's presence was not guaranteed, she led my sister to believe she would be there to fulfill her vision for the day. Imagine the stress the bride felt upon hearing this news! My sister was overwhelmed with worry about whether the assistants would understand her vision as she had explained it to Shari during planning meetings. As someone with a background in high-end hospitality, I find this treatment of a client (especially a bride!) unprofessional and, frankly, mean. To add to the stress, my sister could not contact the assistants directly until the day before the wedding. While the assistants did a commendable job executing the wedding, some significant components were mishandled. The bridal party arrived at the bridal suite an hour before the ceremony was set to begin, fully ready after preparing at an Airbnb. However, just 30 minutes before the ceremony, one of the coordinators informed the bride that they were still figuring out how to get her out without the groom seeing her. This detail should have been sorted out earlier, ideally during the rehearsal. The ceremony, originally scheduled for 4 PM, did not start until 4:30 PM, which felt unacceptable. The wedding coordinator's primary role should be to ensure the schedule is followed. Additionally, we felt rushed despite waiting an hour in the bridal suite. At the ceremony site, the coordinators distributed bouquets but failed to bring the flower girl's basket, a cherished family heirloom. When this was pointed out, one coordinator dismissively stated, "Don't worry about it, we don't have time to go get it." This hurried feeling persisted into the reception. When it was time for the wedding party to enter the reception for our introductions, we were told last minute that we had to use a different entrance than what had been rehearsed due to a locked door. This lack of foresight caused confusion and disrupted the flow of the entrances. Although the wedding was absolutely magical and my sister had such thoughtful and beautiful touches throughout the ceremony and reception- there were elements that did not meet her expectations and her vision. She expressed disappointment about the dessert table, which Shari had promised would be stunning. While all the wedding guests thought it was a beautiful dessert display, if the bride wasn't satisfied with it- does it really matter what others think? The situation escalated when my sister wrote an honest review expressing her disappointment. Instead of addressing the issues professionally, Shari responded defensively and attacked my sister, even including false claims that she was an hour late to her own rehearsal!! This response felt shocking and unkind. Shari never apologized or reached out to my sister to discuss what went wrong. This wedding was especially emotional for our family, as the groom's father had passed away two months prior, and we were coping with the impending loss of our beloved aunt. It would have meant a lot if Shari had shown some compassion towards my sister, even if there were changes in plans. While no wedding is perfect, when hiring professionals, you expect warmth and respect. Given my experience, I cannot recommend Events by Wise." There are many other coordinators who will honor your special day with professionalism and kindness.

I reached out to Jessica about 8 months prior to the May party to get information about her services. I wanted to reach out early, due to graduation weekend in Sac and I wanted to book with vendors way ahead of time. Once hired in contract, Jessica and I had a few calls/ emails to select the craft drinks and discuss all details which I appreciated' the calls, ' cause I am highly organized and a preplanner and so is Jess. The day of the event we only had a couple hours to set up of which, everything went off without an issue. The bar was super cute and all the extra details, like the custom menu, flowers, feathers, decor and extra touches really added a little extra to the bar and hydration station. The guests loved the bar; craft cocktails and the two ladies were so fun and enthusiastic. If you are in the market for a bar service, highly recommend.

I've spoken to both Josh and Mark on the phone and they are on time to the scheduled phone calls, very organized, easy to talk to. Josh was our bartender for my dad's wedding and he did such a spectacular job! His set up was well organized, clean, and aesthetically pleasing. Josh kept up with the demand of all the guests and wowed us all. I was told "best wedding gift ever!" The bar area was the hot spot for the entire night. Aside from delicious drinks and quick service, Josh was so personable and went above and beyond. He even remembered where my grandma had placed her cane and was helping clean up when he wasn't busy.

There are a wide variety of delicious food and desserts, they offer preset menus and pricing for a set amount of guests. Food was very good quality and worth their pricing. Dependable and a perfect choice for all your catering needs. I will definitely hire them again.

Working with Catherine to figure out the menu and logistics was great! This was my first time being in charge of throwing any type of event and Catherine was such wonderful help with figuring out all the little details. Hannibal's was also able to do a custom Asian menu for us including Thai red curry with beef, teriyaki glazed salmon, and vegetarian egg rolls. I think the only issue (but this may be an overall Sacramento-specific problem) is getting authentic Asian food catered. For instance, I did request spring rolls but they brought egg rolls instead. As a Vietnamese person, I know this is a common mistake other people make (egg rolls are the ones coated in egg-wash and then fried). Another unexpected thing was that the Thai red curry was made without any coconut milk, which is something I've never seen before. But I think that these issues could've been resolved had we been allowed to do a taste test beforehand. Additionally, the on-site catering staff and bartenders were very easy to work with and efficient at doing their jobs!

Their variety of bars is unmatched. Their communication is wonderful as well, and they customize an alcohol shopping list based on your bar menu and number of guests, which was super helpful! Their pricing is also very reasonable in my opinion. We went to their home to view the trailer we chose and do a tasting last year. Due to COVID, we had to postpone our wedding from May 2020 to September 2020. Luckily, they were available on our new date and were very understanding and accommodating. They have so many packages to cater to any of your needs and can even customize a package for you. Their cocktails are also high end, taste delicious, and even look beautiful! One of my favorite cocktails is a dragonberry mojito at a local restaurant we frequent, so when I brought this up to Alyson, she ran with it and purchased a dragonfruit just for our tasting. It was so delicious and cute! They make all their own syrups and can provide literally everything (juices, garnishes, ice, cups, straws, etc.), besides the actual alcohol. It was so convenient. We also had a Kentucky Mule and Classic Margarita. We also purchased beer kegs since their bars have a built-in tap system/kegerator. Our wedding day would not have been the same without the Black & Tan. It was meant to be at our venue! Our guests are still raving about the bar (drinks and the bar itself) and the service. There are a few horse trailer bar companies in the greater Sacramento area, but Belle Aventure is seriously the best! You will love Alyson and Jeano as much I do and won't regret hiring them!
