The month of May has arrived and so has our delightful event season! Spring is a conventional temperate season, which makes it the perfect time to plan an event! With the weather warming up as we progress into a Southern California Spring, many excited brides and corporations are booking their events with us and we couldn’t be happier to serve their catering needs!

Alison and Alex Serot recently entrusted Temecula Catering with one of the biggest days of their life, their wedding! The bride, Alison, looked spectacular in a classic white wedding gown that slowly cascaded behind her as she walked down the aisle. The groom, Alex, looked sharp in his tailored tuxedo as he admired the beauty of his bride. After their “I Dos” the lovely couple, their wedding party, and all of their guests sat down for a magical reception that included our delectable Mon Tresor Buffet.
