The whole weekend · 30A, and wherever you’re going

Bachelorette
Weekends

The best meal of the trip, in the house you rented, with nobody in heels queuing for a table. This is what we do more than anything else — and the one thing we’ll travel for.

The weekend

The bit everyone remembers

When do we arrive?

Three to five hours before you eat, depending on the size of the group. We do the shopping first, so we come with everything. You do not need to be there — give us the gate code and we will let ourselves in and text you when we do.

What to expect

We stay in the kitchen. Come and chat with a drink if you want, or disappear and get ready and reappear when it is on the table. You are not hosting us — we are working, and you are on holiday.

Before your event

Empty the dishwasher, clear the sink and the counters, and send us the gate and door codes when you book rather than on the day. Leave us somewhere to park and have the alcohol in. That is genuinely all we need.

After your event

Every dish is done, the counters are wiped, the trash is bagged and everything of ours is packed out. We are usually gone within an hour of the last plate.

You will not come down in the morning to a sink full of pans — and that is most of what you are actually paying for.

What we bring

  • A menu built around your group, not a set package
  • All the shopping, prep and cooking
  • Every allergy and dietary need designed around
  • Serviceware, platters and the table set if you have booked décor
  • A complete kitchen reset after every service
  • A chef who has done a hundred of these and is not fazed by any of it

What to have ready

  • An empty dishwasher — so we can load as we go
  • A cleared sink and clear counters — the rental kitchen is small and we need the room
  • Somewhere to park — the most common problem, especially in a gated community
  • The gate and door codes at booking — not on the day — your chef arrives at three while you are at the beach
  • All the alcohol — we bring the mixers, the recipes and the service

We travel for bachelorettes. 30A, Rosemary Beach, Panama City Beach and Destin as standard — but if the weekend is somewhere else, tell us where and we’ll come to you. Travel beyond thirty miles is quoted, and the beach services stay on the Emerald Coast because of the county permits.

Working to a budget? Tell us the number you have in mind and we will build a menu to it. We would rather cook you something honest at your price than talk you into something you did not want to spend.

No glass is permitted on the beach. It is county law, not our rule. We bring shatterproof drinkware and will decant wine or champagne before we head down. Any fine issued for glass is passed on to the client.

Takes about four minutes. Nothing is charged until you've seen your quote.

We are here around the clock. Build your event, see your quote and hold your date at two in the morning if that is when you are planning — and we answer. Submissions are open 24/7 and so are we.

Before you ask

The questions we get

We’re not on 30A — can you still come?
Yes. Bachelorettes are the one thing we travel for.

30A, Rosemary Beach, Panama City Beach and Destin are our home patch and there is no travel charge. Further out, tell us where you are staying and we will quote the travel honestly — no surprises on the invoice.

The only things that stay local are the beach services. Bonfire & Buffet and Dinner Under the Stars depend on county permits we can only pull here. Everything else travels.
Can you do the whole weekend?
That's most of what we do. Friday dinner, Saturday on the sand, Sunday brunch — booked together and priced as a weekend.

Book each one and mention the others in your notes, or just tell us and we'll build it.
What about the bride's dietary thing?
Tell us everything — hers and everyone else's. We design around it rather than working around it, and nobody gets a sad plate while the table eats something else.

One honest caveat: we cook in your rental on shared equipment, so we can't promise an allergen-free environment.
Can we decorate the table?
Yes — sixteen themes, from $250 for six guests. Full place setting, runner, charger, napkin ring, candles and flowers.

Tell us the vibe and we'll match it. Or send us the Pinterest board; we won't judge.
How far ahead should we book?
For a peak-season Saturday, as far ahead as you can. We get asked for the same dates over and over from March.

Your date isn't held until the deposit is paid, so don't sit on it.
No glass on the beach — really?
Really. County law, and the fines are real. We bring shatterproof drinkware, and we'll decant your champagne before we head down.

Tell the group before the day — someone arriving with a bottle to celebrate is exactly how this goes wrong.
