Juniper Green W e d d i n g s

Food tells a story and it's an honor to be part of telling yours. No pre-set packages here - every wedding, every menu, one of a kind. We love putting together a menu that truly reflects the couple — where they come from and who they are together.

Below we've selected some of our favorite stories and menus from past weddings that we think showcase what we do best. Please feel free to read the couples' stories and peruse their menus by clicking on the images below.

Kind Words

I’m left pretty speechless after last night. The food couldn’t have been any better and your team executed the evening perfectly. I felt like such a guest in my own home and was able to relax and be present with my friends and family because of their hard work and attention to detail. Thank you, thank you to you and your team for going above and beyond for Z, me, and our guests last night. We are endlessly grateful!!

We cannot say enough good things about Juniper Green's catering at our wedding! We had people coming up to us nonstop at the wedding and since raving about how delicious it was -- hands down the best wedding food we (and they!) have had! The flavors were incredible, the presentation was stunning, and the care and thought they put into everything just really made it all so special. We even had a friend request the menu so she could try to recreate some of the combos herself! And perhaps best of all, they took our vision of a cheese "cake", and made it come to life. It was BEYOND incredible. It was stunning -- literally out of a magazine, and so delicious! Working with their team was so wonderful, they were extremely communicative, and helped us make our vision come to life. Can't recommend them enough and will always use them for our Nashville catering needs!

Juniper Green recently catered the food for my daughter's wedding and did an astounding job. Not only was everything delicious, but it was beautifully presented and visually gorgeous! The ingredients were fresh and unusual, with garnishes that not only added flavor but visual appeal. The dinner which included platters of kale salad, roasted vegetables, and wedding meatballs was served family style and passed around the table. It lent an intimacy to the dinner where all guests were seated at the same time "breaking bread" together. A beautiful charcuterie was laid out for guests to help themselves too during cocktails. Despite having to "stage" a kitchen in a back storage room, everything ran smoothly without a hitch that I could see. Juniper Green does a superb job both in preparing food, presenting it and serving it. I was confident in their abilities and would definitely use them again. This is a high quality product and presentation.
