Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about partnering with Gracefully Boarded for your celebration. If you have a specific question not covered here, please reach out to us directly.
Do you require a deposit?
Yes, We require half deposit down to secure your booking. This deposit is applied to the total cost of your grazing table. Larger tables may require larger deposit
How far in advance should we book our event?
We recommend booking your grazing table or brunch bar at least 3–4 weeks in advance. For larger events, weddings, and busy holiday weekends, reaching out 6–8 weeks or more ahead is best to guarantee your date is secured on our calendar.
What do we need to provide for the grazing table?
We can provide a table but prefer to be provided a table. We do not provide linens, plates, napkins, or utensils for guests. We do, however, provide serving tongs, small spoons for jellies and dips, honey dippers, and cheese knives. These are included with every grazing table.
When do you arrive, and do you handle cleanup?
We typically arrive 1–2 hours before your event begins to style and arrange every detail with care. After the celebration, we coordinate with you or your venue to clear and collect our board display essentials so you can simply enjoy your guests.
What if my event is outdoors?
It is preferred that grazing tables be set up indoors for food safety and presentation. Outdoor setups can be accommodated, but the client is responsible for providing adequate shade such as umbrellas, a canopy, or another structure to fully cover the grazing table. This requirement is non-negotiable and must be in place to comply with health department regulations.
How long can the food stay out?
Per health department regulations, food may remain at room temperature for up to 4 hours from the start of setup. After that, all food must be discarded and cannot be stored or served again.
