Colorful Arabian Nights UCM Spring Gala

Catering by Seasons welcomed in spring with a number of weddings and special events, including the UCM Spring Gala.

This colorful Arabian Nights-themed celebration at the Patent and Trade Office in Alexandria, VA, raised thousands of dollars to support the Alexandria community.

UCM is a non-profit dedicated to empowering the people of Northern Virginia to improve the community.

Tables in blue, red, purple and polka-dot made this gala bright and fun, while the assortment of hors d’ouevre provided something for every taste.

Middle Eastern Turmeric Shrimp, Mushroom Crostini, Stuffed Dates, Falafal Bites, and Lamb Kabobs were enjoyed during the first part of the evening.

Reviews

It was a pleasure to work with Alberto Trevizo and Catering by Seasons. Alberto was knowledgeable and pleasant to work with, and was very accommodating when we had to postpone our wedding one year.

Catering By Seasons exceeded my expectation. I used them for a brunch at my house after my son’s bar mitzvah. The level of professionalism along with their responsiveness made me feel at ease right away.

I can’t say enough great things about our entire experience planning our daughter's Bat Mitzvah with Glynis Keith, Catering Manager, with Catering by Seasons.
