The whole things was awesome. From the beginning, I had seen from the blog that Evan and Alex were not “caterers” or even “guys who cater.” But somehow we managed to convince them to join us on this adventure. For me, the food was really central, and I never wanted a caterer who would “do” veggie for us but whom we were locked into at some venue. Unfortunately, the result of my desire to keep working with the ‘knivez and not just go an easier route with some corporate/location caterer was that the event got more complicated (i.e., split into two pieces) and they gamely hung on. Actually, I never even heard you guys gulp when I raised it as a way of doing the event.
It was also a complete act of faith – based on timing issues, much to the complete amazement of various people when they found out during the event, we never even tasted a single thing that Evan or Alex had cooked, or anything from the menu plan, before the guests did.
Being somewhat otherwise occupied during the event, it is so amazing to read about this now. From my perspective at the reception and then the dinner, it was all beautiful, the food was awesome, people raved about various dishes (each one got a different person rapturously praising the cooks) and all of the staff were both completely professional and totally fun at the same time. It all went really really well, and I will always appreciate your willingness to go on this voyage into the unknown with us.
Tom
