NEW ORLEANS HOSPITALITY, DELIVERED.
A client planning guide for celebrations, meetings and private events.
WELCOME TO SEAWITCH EVENTS & CATERING
New Orleans coastal flavor designed for celebrations, meetings and gatherings beyond our dining room.
OUR APPROACH
We create receptions that feel generous, social and unmistakably New Orleans. Menus are built around grazing displays, substantial food stations, buffet lines, polished beverage service and food that travels beautifully.
OFF-SITE SERVICE, BUILT TO WORK
All food is fully prepared and cooked at Seawitch before departure.
Cold selections arrive ready for presentation; hot selections arrive ready for approved warming and holding.
Standard packages do not require frying, grilling, sautéing or made-to-order cooking at the venue.
Wedding receptions are designed for mingling, drinking, dancing and visiting rather than formal plated service.
Corporate packages are designed for efficient meetings, training days and executive gatherings.
PLANNING STANDARD
Wedding packages require a 50-guest minimum. Corporate buffet packages require 20 guests; box lunches require 10. Food, beverage, staffing and enhancements are subject to a 24% service charge and applicable sales tax.
