Fantastic wedding in Ashton Idaho at an amazing Airbnb. We've been here before but it's been about three years. Amazing view, amazing property. Close to Yellowstone. Lovely bride and groom and guests enjoyed a lavish buffet. Congratulations Max and Brooke!!! Plus we left then with late night snacks, pepperoni pizzas freshly made, potato skins and mozzarella sticks with our famous homemade ranch. Where else can you get this service?
We worked with a great planner for this one Emily Aitken events. How many interactions on average happens between a Chef and planner to coordinate an event? This one, 26. We are constantly working behind the scenes before your event to make sure all details are taken care of and event day is smooth as silk. It's all the little details of the 26 emails, texts, back and forth that make it happen. This is professional service. Don't settle for just ok. Call Artisan Chef and experience outstanding food, service and detailed planning.

Mini wedding reception at the wedding tree Thursday June 19th for a lovely couple from Tennessee. Peyton was a beautiful bride!
Forty four guests enjoyed a lovely charcuterie spread and their special chilled wine from Tennessee.
When you see these lovely photos know that it takes our whole team to make it happen. Jill cut every single piece of cheese, Gracie folded every salami, Hailee skewered all the fruit, Zoey and Ethan packed out all the equipment. Alana worked on a major pack out for tomorrow. Every member of our team works all the jobs and does fantastic. That's why we're able to do high level events. I'm so thankful for everyone on the Artisan Chef team!

Tasting today for a bride and groom 2026 wedding. Yes, we are busy booking 2026 weddings. Premium dates will go quickly.
A tasting is when you set an appointment with a Chef to try their food and decide if they are a good fit for your reception. Does every couple do a tasting? Most don't. We do charge for tastings and suggest trying three menu items. Chickadee Cafe in Star Valley Community Center is a lovely comfortable cozy space for a tasting. This couple loved everything and is having their wedding at Diamond Cross Ranch outside Jackson WY.
