What Every Marianna’s Wedding Includes
Beyond the menu, each package comes with a set of complimentary enhancements that take a lot of small decisions off your list: professional wedding planning services, linens in the colour of your choice, a sweetheart table or head table, a coat room, use of the grounds for photographs, and a tasting before the big day. Couples also receive a discount on rehearsal dinner packages at Marianna’s and a first anniversary gift certificate. Check the package you are considering above for the exact list, since the Premiere and All-In-One packages add a concierge for the couple and a larger tasting.
Planning Your Reception Timeline
Most receptions at Marianna’s follow a simple flow that the events team can adjust to your ceremony time:
- Cocktail hour – guests arrive to passed hors d’oeuvres and a cold display while the wedding party takes photos. The outdoor patio and grounds are popular for photographs in good weather.
- Grand entrance and champagne toast – the couple is introduced and the room raises a glass together.
- Plated first course – a salad with homemade bread is served at the table.
- Buffet or family-style dinner – your chosen entrées and sides, served the way you prefer.
- Cake, dessert and dancing – the rest of the open-bar time is yours.
Rehearsal Dinners, Showers and Wedding Weekend Events
The smaller Stockton Room seats up to 50 guests and has its own bar and restrooms, which makes it a comfortable size for rehearsal dinners, bridal showers and engagement parties. The event and party packages cover these gatherings, and the event bar packages can be added to any of them.
Getting Married Somewhere Else?
If your ceremony and reception are at a barn, winery, historic site or hotel ballroom, Marianna’s Catering can bring the same menus to you. See off-premise wedding and event catering for packages, and the venues page for Lehigh Valley and Bucks County locations the team has catered. You can also read what couples have said on our reviews page and browse the photo gallery.
