Alli-&-Eric-Review

Highly recommend the Casual Gourmet! They were so easy to work with and truly are so much more than just a catering company. They really act as your coordinator and were such a pleasure to work with. If you are looking to have a Cape wedding, and can use your own caterer, the casual gourmet is a must!

Highfield Hall Wedding Venue

A Styled Wedding Tabletop Shoot at Highfield Hall & Gardens

Built in 1878, […]

Olive Chase Reflects on 40 Years of The Casual Gourmet

When asked what has changed since she opened the doors of The Casual Gourmet in April of 1986, Olive Chase says simply, “Everything.” When asked what has stayed the same, specifically of the hundreds of couples she and her team have worked with, Olive is also succinct. “Couples still love the romance that is Cape […]

Faith and James at Underwood Estate

When Mother Nature cooperates, there is something absolutely spectacular about an October wedding on Cape Cod. The sun is softer than in the summer months and takes on an ethereal golden hue, and it sets early enough to add a sense of romance to any afternoon wedding. Mother Nature was in a very, very good […]

We had an incredible experience with Olive and her team at The Casual Gourmet. We had countless guests raving that it was the best wedding food they’ve had. The thoughtful appetizers, delicious and perfectly prepared main course and ice cream for dessert were all a hit. Olive and Kelly made us feel completely at ease through the whole planning process...

A Storm Story: This weekend’s nor’easter had us thinking about Lexy and DB’s fall of 2023 wedding. With a hurricane forecast to hit the day of their wedding, it was all hands on deck to move everything to an indoor venue. The couple’s faces when they saw the space made it all SO worthwhile.
