Planning perspective
What to consider before reaching out
A strong first conversation is about fit, not just availability. Share your date, approximate guest count, location, and the feeling you want the day to have. Ask what is included, what typically changes the final quote, and what decisions need to be made earliest.
For a catering partner, confirm how communication works, who will be present on the day, and how the team handles changes. Pricing was not included in the supplied research, so request a current, itemized proposal directly from the business.

Suzanne and Sweetwater Kitchen created the most magical evening for our son's engagement party on Melody Island last week. Finding an affordable and superb caterer for a smaller group is challenging and on an ISLAND no less - Suzanne was a delight to work with - from set up to execution and the food was perfect. Thank you so much!

Suzanne Trice and Sweetwater Kitchen was such a joy to work with and she went over and above to provide a wonderful afternoon for our son’s wedding shower. She came up with a delightful menu keeping with our Italian Coastal theme and everyone agreed it was such a lovely day of La Dolce Vita! Thank you Suzanne, cannot wait to work with you and your team again! Rita and the Weiss Family

Suzanne Trice aka Sweetwater Kitchen just catered my daughter’s wedding! On a scale of 1-10 she was an 11!! The attention to detail; plate size, napkins, name cards, garnish etc etc was professional, artistic and creative. She is an artist and a chef. Her food is not only delicious but beautiful. We got so many compliments on her behalf; “best wedding food we’ve ever had”, “tasted like restaurant food”, “unique and delicious”!! Her desserts were equally outstanding!! We highly recommend Suzanne for all of your catering needs!!

I hired Sweetwater Kitchen to cater a series of corporate team retreats in the fall of 2025. Suzanne was wonderful from the outset. She truly listened to our needs, made thoughtful considerations for our team members who had dietary restrictions or strong preferences, and delivered a wide variety of delicious options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner across several days of catering. The food was so good our team is still talking about it months later. We’ve already hired her for our 2026 retreats and can’t wait to see what she does next. I also want to mention that Suzanne entered a new environment where there were some real quirks she had to work through to be successful. Our dishwasher wat...

Suzanne is a pleasure to work with. She is gregarious and well prepared. Her food was stunning in both flavor and presentation. My coworkers were amazed. I would recommend her for any event you have in the lakes region, but will plug specifically for corporate events like ours!
