Can we bring in our own caterer or bar service?
Best Impressions Caterers is the exclusive caterer for The Vanlandingham Estate. As part of our full-service experience, Best Impressions would be responsible for providing and managing all aspects of food & beverage and equipment rentals within the venue. *Best Impressions carries all liability insurance and is licensed through the North Carolina Alcohol Beverage Commission to provide Spirits within the estate. There are different alcohol packages to best suit the needs of your specific event. No outside alcohol is permitted by law; we will be forced to stop the event if violated. No exceptions.
Do you offer tastings?
Yes, we host private tastings at our headquarters. Tastings are complimentary for up to four guests if you have already booked our services and paid an initial payment. If you would like to schedule a tasting prior to securing our services and submitting an initial payment, we would require payment for the tasting based on the items chosen for the tasting menu, which is on average $65.00 per person. We schedule tastings during the months of January, February, March, July, and August; Tuesdays through Thursdays; from 11:00am to 4:00pm.
What is the standard place setting for a buffet or plated menu?
Each guest place setting will include a water goblet, salad fork, dinner fork, knife, and teaspoon. A linen napkin is at the place setting but is a rental item and priced per napkin. White china dinner plates are also included in the food costs and will either be at the buffet or served directly to guests for a plated meal. A plated meal also includes a bread and butter plate.
What is the standard place setting for a stations style menu?
With this dinner style, we typically see limited seating to encourage a free flowing environment, but you do have the option of creating a more formal atmosphere with a seat for all guests. Each food station is equipped with 7-inch white china square plates, cocktail forks, (and dinner knives if necessary) and paper cocktail napkins. The food costs also include the tables on which food and beverages will be displayed, all serving pieces, chafing dishes, baskets, trays, props, etc. Water goblets and additional pieces of a guest place setting can be added on at an additional cost.
