Dina and Sal; the owners of the Cottage and their team are the best team to work with! From beginning (planning) to end (ceremony and reception) everything about our special day was perfect and I wish I could relive it every day! Dina helped us with the whole process. We chose to use them and their vendors for our entire day! In the beginning stages we were able to do a tour and even go to their food tasting nights. They have options from Italian to BBQ to Mexican. They can do it all, and all of their food was exceptional it was very hard to choose which way to go. We used their DJ and their cake vendor. Throughout our planning of our wedding, Dina was in contact with us the entire time. We were able to choose decor that they had to choose from for our big day. Dina was very easy to talk with and even ask questions about things we knew nothing about. The Cottage is such a perfect venue. We had 130 people and were able to have everyone seated outside and even had a nice dance floor for our special day. I cannot recommend The Cottage Wedding Venue enough!!!

I’m Chef Nisha, owner of Loaded by Nisha, with 9 years of experience in diverse cuisines. I've worked with high-profile clients and was voted a top private chef in AZ and NV. Let’s schedule a meeting to discuss!

Loaded By Nisha was absolutely amazing and undescribable. The communication from Chef Nisha and her team was communicative, descriptive and informative from start to finish. On our special day, they made themselves readily available and took care of all of our food needs with care and precision. The chef and her staff came in, set up, and made some of the most memorable and delicious food we have ever had. Nisha's energy is something you would love to have at a wedding after everything is done - you can truly taste the love in the food. We were blown away by the quality of their work and the value they provided. We cannot recommend Loaded By Nisha enough for your wedding or event.

"Literally The Best Wedding Food I've Ever Had." -Guest at our wedding If you are even thinking about booking Americano for your wedding, stop thinking and DO IT. Hiring them was single-handedly the best decision we made in our entire wedding planning process. We knew we wanted our food to be a highlight, not an afterthought, and the Americano team delivered a culinary experience that was beyond our wildest dreams. Our guests are still raving about it weeks later! From our very first inquiry, their catering manager (Beni) and team were an absolute dream to work with. They were responsive, incredibly organized, and genuinely excited about creating a menu that felt personal to us. They took our vision and elevated it with creative ideas, turning the tasting into one of our favorite pre-wedding memories. They made the entire process feel completely seamless and stress-free. Now, let's talk about the food on the wedding day. Show-stopping. We had the burrata with prosciutto and fig jam for a starter, and people were losing their minds over how fresh and flavorful it was. For mains, the slow-braised short rib literally melted in your mouth, and the sea bass was cooked to absolute perfection. It wasn't just "good wedding food"—it was exceptional food, period. The presentation was stunning, the ingredients were top-tier, and everything was served hot and flawlessly. Multiple guests—including our pickiest family members—pulled us aside to say it was the most delicious and memorable meal they had ever had at a wedding. Americano didn't just cater our wedding; they created an unforgettable experience that became a core memory of our celebration. They are worth every single penny and then some for the impact they will have on your day. Book them. You will be so, so happy you did!

We ordered Tuck Ins to put in our wedding guest gift bags at the hotel. Tuck Ins was easy to work with, delivered in a timely manner, and all of our guests loved having something delicious and made by a local Philly company. If we were to get married again, I think we would include Tuck Ins at the dessert table and let the guests roast them at the reception. Would highly recommend!

Welcome. Chef Jason started out in the kitchen at 15 years old as a dishwasher at Red Lobster washing dishes and baking. From there, he worked many cook’s lines until I earned my first chef position under Emeril Lagasse over ten years ago. He's went on to operating casino kitchens, private dining clubs. Since relocating from Atlanta, GA Jason has gained experience in kitchen consulting and new restaurant openings. After 25 years in the industry, He is now starting a new journey into the Private Chef sector. He refers to his style of cooking as Southern Creole cooking, where it’s much more than cooking…it’s about the overall experience.

The Crain Experience was so amazing and easy to work with! Anytime I had questions they were so quick to get back to me. The food was delicious, the drinks were phenomenal, and the staff/bartenders were easygoing, professional, and personable. I could not recommend them more!
