Q&A

Q: How does the charcuterie cart work at events?
A: We arrive with our custom charcuterie cart, fully stocked with meats, cheeses, and treats you’ve selected in advance. Once your event begins, guests can visit the cart and we’ll personally create individual boards for them to enjoy.

 

Q: Can I choose what goes on the cart?
A: Absolutely! We’ll work with you ahead of time to customize your selection of cheeses, meats, and accompaniments based on your preferences and event vibe.

 

Q: Do you serve the charcuterie, or is it self-serve?
A: We serve! Our team will be at the cart throughout the event, building boards for each guest so they can enjoy a personalized, mess-free experience.

 

Q: How long do you stay at the event?
A: Each package includes two hours of service. If you’d like us to stay longer, additional time can be added at $75 per hour. We’ll go over all timing details with you during the booking process.

 

Q: What areas do you service?
A: At this time, Cured and Cultured proudly serves the Whatcom & Skagit County area in Washington. We're committed to providing an exceptional experience to our local community and are excited to grow! While we currently focus on Whatcom & Skagit County, we hope to expand our service area in the near future—stay tuned!

 

Q: What kind of events do you cater?
A: We cater a wide range—weddings, showers, birthdays, corporate events, open houses, and more. If it’s a celebration, we’re there with cheese!

 

Q: Is the cart indoor- and outdoor-friendly?
A: Yes! Our cart is designed to work in most indoor and outdoor spaces, weather permitting. We’ll confirm location logistics with you in advance.

 

Q: What’s included in the price?
A: Each package includes setup, the charcuterie cart, service for your guests, and all food items you’ve selected. Travel fees may apply for locations outside our service area (Whatcom & Skagit County).

 

Q: Do you offer vegetarian or dietary-friendly options?
A: Yes! We’re happy to offer vegetarian options and can accommodate many dietary needs with advance notice.

 

Q: How far in advance should I book?
A: We recommend booking at least 2–4 weeks in advance to secure your date, especially during peak event seasons.

 

Q: What’s your cancellation policy?
A: Cancellations made 3 days or more before the event are eligible for a refund of any payments beyond the initial non-refundable deposit. After that point, all payments are non-refundable.

 

Q: What happens to any leftover food?
A: Any remaining items from the charcuterie cart will be carefully packed up and given to the host at the end of the service, so you can continue enjoying the spread even after the event.
