"Hunt & Gather were the Superheroes of our wedding. Their attentiveness & integrity elevated the entire event beyond our wildest dreams. From our first meeting with Laura, we knew she cared about service and guest experience as much as we did. Chef Andrew created a jaw dropping menu that perfectly reflected our tastes and celebrated the bounty of the PNW. They managed to transform an outdoor venue with limited facilities into a 5 star restaurant and made it all look effortless. Their incredible staff were so kind and professional. Our guests had a truly fine dining experience and are still raving about the food. We loved working with Hunt & Gather so much, we ended up having our Rehearsal Dinner at their event space in the Pearl and can’t wait to plan another party with them." - Caroline & Jake
