We are still on cloud nine after our wedding at the San Diego Botanic Garden in Encinitas, and we owe so much of that joy to Abbey Catering & Event Design. They were simply phenomenal from day one! When we first inquired, Will was great at explaining all of the packages they provide and answering any questions we had. After we signed, we were assigned to Petr Trebin our amazing wedding coordinator!! Petr truly brought our vision to life and we are SO thankful for all of the work he did to make it our dream wedding! Petr made the time leading up to our wedding day and the actual day so seamless! He managed the timeline, coordinated with all of the vendors, and beautifully set up our welcome table and reception tables! He also made sure to have apps and drinks set aside for us after the ceremony to enjoy! He truly thinks of everything and is the best! The food was absolutely incredible and a major highlight for both us and our guests. We chose the dual entrée of panko-herb crusted chicken and NY striploin, which were both flavorful and beautifully plated. During cocktail hour, guests raved about the tray-passed appetizers and loved our open bar! David the event captain, and their team made it a great experience for our guests. We had our cake and cupcakes included in the package through Sugar Bear Provisions and our guests were raving about how delicious this was! The florals that were included in the package from Emerald & Ivy were breathtaking from the ceremony arch to the bouquet and reception tables! They were also flexible with us providing our own vases since we had specific vases we wanted to use, which tied perfectly with the gold flatware and charger plates we upgraded to! Our DJ Brian who was included in the package through the wedding entertainment collective was awesome! He kept the energy high, and the music was a perfect blend of our favorite styles and totally reflected our personalities as a couple! We also opted to include photography & videography in our package and both Deb and Tareq were fabulous to work with! We love being able to look back on our video and photos that takes us right back to our day. Every vendor included in the their all-inclusive package through The Abbey was top-tier, and we are so grateful to the entire team for making our wedding day feel effortless, beautiful, and completely us! If you're planning a wedding in San Diego, we highly recommend them! They truly are wonderful to work with!

      Hi, I'm Emma! Growing up in a household of amazing Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine cooks, I fell in love with the flavors and traditions. But dining out often left me disappointed by the lack of authenticity and quality. As a pastry chef, my passion for good food only grew stronger. I started Flame & Flavor to share my vision, using fresh ingredients, no seed oils and premium meats to craft delicious dishes that bring people together. Our food is made with love, and it shows.

      Flame and Flavor provided top-notch catering for our wedding. Their communication throughout the planning process was very easy and smooth, which helped make everything run seamlessly. They went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect, from the delicious food to the impeccable service. The chicken was extremely tender, and the beef was also perfectly cooked. Everything was thoughtfully seasoned and tasted incredible. We received so many compliments from our guests on the quality of the catering. Flame and Flavor truly contributed to making our special day unforgettable.

        I am the Director of Mixology for Mermaids & Cowboys in La Jolla and Run sustainable / healthy bar programs for SBSD Hospitality which covers over 12 bars in California . I have lived and worked in over 14 countries including Asia , Europe and Middle eastern regions where I have picked and learn so much about flavors and gastronomic knowledge . I invite people to my bar for wedding drinks tastings and give them the actual experience of crafting a cocktail . This is what I bring in the wedding events and intimate parties.

        Our event was small and intimate. There was only a handful of us but Praveen made us feel like we were the only ones there. The drink menu was so mouthwatering it was hard to choose - so we didn’t! We had seen Praveen’s mixology skills previously so we just asked him to make something custom for us - and he nailed it! Be as adventurous as you like - or keep it simple! No matter what, the service, the quality of drinks and the overall wonderful conversation makes Praveen the best way to spend an evening over drinks and laughs.

          Brian and Alexa met in 2016 when he was pursuing his dream operating a café in North Park. This venture was called Grinds & Vine Coffee Bar, where the community was the most important factor of his establishment. One day Alexa came in as a guest to study and have some coffee. She was quickly mesmerized by the PB&J sandwich and their delicious cold brew options. They shared some great conversations about food and life then quickly became friends, which then blossomed into something more. Who would have ever thought a PB&J, a cold brew and a conversation would turn into love and marriage.

          Truly a remarkable experience from start to finish, they operate with such excellence! We have been using Off the Vine Dining for a couple years now. They have done intimate events with us, and some of our larger company events with hundreds of people. Brian has always been extremely helpful curating menus with me, all of the menu offerings are so fantastic that I have always had a problem selecting items. He goes above and beyond with taking in account all of our dietary restrictions that some of our guests have, he has even customized and created some menu items for us. I was so touched at one of our events when Brian overheard one of our guests say they didn't do dairy, and was able to make some small adjustments so that the guest could still enjoy every dish. That's above and beyond! Brian and his team always do a beautiful, professional, and efficient job setting up, serving, and cleaning up. The decor is stunning, they have fresh flowers and everything is presented so wonderfully. They even left my kitchen cleaner then when they arrived, I told my husband lets host an event next time we need to clean our kitchen, hahaha!! The service is always amazing, the team is so cheerful and always smiling during the events. You could tell they really loved serving people, it was such a delight to experience. Most importantly, the food is delicious and I have always received wonderful feedback from our guests who enjoyed the culinary offerings very much. Thank you Brian and Off the Vine Dining team, all of you are so wonderful to work with. Brian, you can tell you love people, and love food, the BEST combination in a caterer. I HIGHLY recommend Off the Vine Dining and look forward to using them again for ALL future events.
