ENGAGED || 1000 POST || we’ve been a little quiet on the gram the past couple of weeks ~ between many gorgeous events with all of you ~ I have also been floating in a big, bright love bubble after getting engaged to the man of my dreams a week ago! 🤍🤍🤍

My amazing fiancé (eep!) Blake, and the loveliest Ellinor of spent the past three months designing this absolutely stunning engagement ring for me. I’m obsessed with its beauty, its thoughtful, intentional, unique perfection. It’s better than anything I’ve dreamt of. Thank you so much Ellinor for guiding my guy through this process and creating something so magical for us. 🩷💍💎💚

Blake has been in my life long before I started Brie & Banquet and he has been an immeasurable support for me and B&B along the way. Being a passionately creative business owner himself (he’s a co-owner and brew master ) we share a special understanding, and I truly can’t imagine accomplishing all that I do without him by my side, always cheering me on, raising me up, telling me straight, and giving me the freedom to work really freaking hard, and sometimes really freaking long, building this little luxury catering co.

Some of you may have caught him in one of our pink aprons in the kitchen during bustling Christmas times (letting me bark orders like a low key Ramsay lunatic, always with a clever, playful jab or a hilarious new “idea”, and granting me endless grace 🙏🏻💋), or delivering dozens of solo boxes on impossibly short timelines in the craziest days of covid, or maybe literally hand-bombing refrigerators during booth setups at taste of calgary or rocky mountain wine & food fest (I mean, after moving about 3 million kegs, surely a fridge weighs nothing, right?) 💪🏻😂

Whether we’re dining at a Michelin, or sipping pints in a dank pub, toasting Dom P with Osetra caviar, or shotgunning Alpines and road tripping with pep n’ cheds, it’s always so fun, so delicious and absolutely dreamy, because I’m with him 🥰🥰🥰 Now, time to start planning a fu***ng epic party!!

✨🍾🥂✨

Find us at Rosé and Croquet, the garden party of the year, this Thursday! We’ll be sharing our wildly pretty small bites including Calgary’s Best Devilled Eggs, and Shrimp & Caviar Blinis all in support of 🌸🥂

The stunning garden setting sets the scene for guests to mingle at the most fashionable outdoor soirée of the season! With our friends and SO many amazing chefs and food crafters! ✨

We can’t wait to see everyone! Will you be there??

🍷🍾🥂 We’re celebrating the (long awaited) results of my WSET3 exam, passing with distinction in the (highly anticipated and equally feared) blind tasting portion. 🥳 GUYS! I’m really good at drinking wine!!

My passion and curiosity for wine is very young, it was only two short years ago that I began this intense and delicious journey. Previous to that, I thought wines all tasted “like wine” and didn’t understand what all the fuss was about. {If you feel this way now ~ keep your eyes on this page ~ I’ll find a way to change your mind!}

Since then I’ve taken classes with and I’ve completed WSET1, 2 and now 3 (phewf!) and became certified in French Wine.

I highly recommend .e.book Sensory Masterclass which is where it truly all started for me!!! Learning to taste wine has deeply developed my palate, for wine, cheese and everything in between.

I’ve road-tripped all across France, visiting vineyards and producers in Alsace, Chablis and Burgundy, Provence the Southern Rhone, Sauternes and Bordeaux, and of course the epic caves of the luxurious Champagne region.🇫🇷

I’ve toured and fell in love with Nova Scotian wines (iykyk) and explored the Okanagan and the wines of BC. 🇨🇦

I feel like this achievement is one of those markers where you’re like “holy s**t, how did i get here…?” and I’m intensely grateful ❤️

Now that thaaaats over with, let’s drink some wine for FUN! Hahaha 📚📖🙇🏼‍♀️

Cheers!!! Katie 🥂✨

Can you believe that we have been building flatlay Grazing Tables for almost SIX YEARS?!

I still get so amped building these pieces for our client’s most special events 🤍

This was our last outdoor wedding/event of the season and it was just so perfect and elegant for a post ceremony snack and sip.

I know videos are what the people want, but something about these images were calling for stills 🧡

We still have lots of availability for November and December holiday parties🌲 but don’t wait too long!

We are launching a new series of events starting in September and the first is Bragging Rights: Women Bragging Without Backlash.

This is brand new kind of networking event where we unpack and break down the gender norms of confidence while only bragging about our own accomplishments with likeminded women who want to take over the world right alongside you. Yes, that's right, we are only going to brag about ourselves - there's no minimizing ourselves or putting ourselves down.

The Brad's, Steve's and Mike's of the world have zero issues bragging about themselves and being seen as confident and natural leaders when they do it while women are often seeing as being inappropriate and too confident when speaking of their accomplishments. This has to stop and we are going to start now with us.

This is a ticketed event as it includes an expert food and wine by the incredible Katie Eyre, founder and owner of paired with a minimally guided discussion by Madame Premier’s Sarah Elder-Chamanara so that we can maximize our time sharing our many, many, many incredible accomplishments.

And every attendee will receive a 10% discount for any Madame Premier purchase to be used the night of the event.

Please note non-alcoholic drink options will be offered as well.

A limited number of tickets are available now using the link in our bio or by visiting MadamePremier.com on the blog posts page.

We’re a unique, rebellious, unconventional and unpretentious catering co. eliminating intimidation while using lavish, local and artisanal ingredients in a wild, whimsical and approachable way.
