Weddings · plan by style
The best venue might be the one you grew up in.

A backyard wedding keeps the day personal and the budget sane, and it hands the caterer the venue-kitchen problem in its purest form. Paisan's arrives self-contained: chafers, serving line, staff, and a plan for the hose bib and the porch steps.
The food can be as formal or as familiar as the family wants: the full wedding board with china upgrades, or a taco spread and burgers-and-dogs casual board at $17.99 a person that lets everyone stay in sandals.
One honest tip from three decades of backyards: rent more shade than you think you need, and let the crew walk the yard once before the day. Ten minutes of walking saves an hour of improvising.
Backyard math
- Casual boards from $17.99 per person; the Wedding Special at $27.99
- Deluxe plasticware included; real china +$4 per person
- Drop-off, partial service, or fully staffed: your call
