    My husband and I hired Erica to make a grazing board at our 72 person wedding. Erica was so easy and nice to communicate and book with. Most importantly the grazing table was incredible! It was so beautiful and so tasty. It was the perfect addition for our wedding. Would 10/10 hire her again for another event!

  • Excellent Experience

    We had an excellent experience with Boards by Erica. You can tell that she is very knowledgeable about food and the guest experience, but she also really listened to my ideas and preferences. The boards for our event were better than I could have imagined and everything was delicious. My friends and family are still talking about how beautiful the charcuterie boards were. I cannot recommend Boards by Erica enough.

  • This might sound cheesy, but Erica is grate.

    I've worked with Erica on numerous catering events over the years, she's always been a delight to work with and I was SO excited when she announced that she was going to open her own board business because charcuterie boards are my favorite - and often something I ordered from the restaurants she previously cheffed at. As of my writing this review, she has done a beautiful grazing table for a wedding I planned, and has dropped off a couple of charcuterie / crudité platters for bridal and bridal party "getting ready" suites. I look forward to working with her many, many more times as her presentation is impeccable, she knows the right combos of cheese / meats / nuts / jams / crunchies / whatevers to put together, and she's just a really cool lady/chef.

  • Gorgeous and Delicious Charcuterie!

    Absolutely loved the charcuterie spread from Boards by Erica at our wedding! It was beautifully presented with a fantastic selection of cheeses, meats, and spreads. Our guests couldn't get enough of it! Chef Erica was so thoughtful in helping us put together the grazing tables we imagined and was a total professional in pulling it all together on our special day. Highly recommend!
