Wedding Dessert Catering

Most wedding dessert vendors deliver your goodies for the wedding day and then head out, letting you arrange your sweets how you’d like for a wedding dessert bar. If an attended station was more your vision for wedding dessert catering, or if you want to add a caffeine corner to your wedding scene, we recommend putting Westheimer Coffee Company on the job.
