We are so happy to welcome Eric Hegwer, Austin Wedding Photographer, to our office space in Westlake!  We first met Eric before we even opened Royal Fig Catering when he was shooting our friend’s wedding at the Driskill a couple of years ago.  He was “playing” a game with the wedding guests called “couch,” where [...]

Several months ago, Cortney Zieky, the “Z” of BZ Events, called me to ask if their team could hold their monthly staff meeting at our office.  So they called in an etiquette coach to do a seminar for their staff as we cooked up some tasty treats!  On the menu was: Grilled Flank Steak with [...]

Our famous “Pig Roast Wedding” at The Allan House with photographer, Ben Godkin, and coordinators, BZ Events, is currently being featured on the popular blog, ROCK ‘N ROLL BRIDE. Though they didn’t include our favorite picture (the bride singing to the pig head), it was great to see some new shots from that night.  We’re [...]

Last weekend we created some great memories by treating our fabulous staff to a party!  Our staff is so amazing at making our guests feel special, we wanted to do the same for them.  So Natalie, our new Event Coordinator, planned a pirate themed night of fun!  Not only did we have a pirate themed [...]

Now that the Austin Bridal Extravaganza is over and a new summer booking season has begun, we are getting many new inquiries for weddings next spring.  Interviewing potential vendors is so hard, especially when everyone does things just a little bit differently.  So here is a link to a list of questions and answers that [...]

As we move from event to event, it’s so great to get great feedback from a couple who we truly enjoyed working with.  I just received the nicest email from a groom we worked with last month. “I just wanted to thank you guys so much for the amazing job you did at our wedding. [...]

We are hoping to see everyone out to the La Paloma Open House tomorrow!  This gorgeous new venue is a sight to see.  Not only does it have a beautiful pavilion (a great rain plan!), 2 ceremony sites, and a luxurious pool house and hot tub, but the rental fee includes overnight accommodations for as [...]

Over the past several months, Royal Fig has had fun putting together some great “action stations.”  It’s another unique twist on the traditional buffet.  The idea is to create a small but visually appealing display of food, where guests can meander and munch, avoiding the long buffet lines and the ho-hum presentation of food chafers.  [...]
