   As soon as you like

   Collect guest addresses

   We send every guest a short form to fill in themselves, so you never chase anyone for a home address. Prefer to handle it yourself? Send us the list instead.

   10 days before

   Addresses in

   That is the deadline for free standard shipping anywhere in the US. International delivery is available to most countries at additional cost, and those addresses are due earlier.

5. 5

   The day before or the day of

   Fresh ingredients arrive

   Not a box packed a week ago: each guest's ingredients are bought fresh at a local store — Whole Foods first choice, or the best grocer near them — and delivered to their door, so what they cook with is fresh on the day.

6. 6

   Event day

   Everyone joins and the chef takes it from there

   One link, no software to install. Your planner is on hand in the background if anything needs sorting mid-event.

What guests said about this experience

Verified guest

This was a great experience. I love that we got our groceries delivered to our doorsteps and I personally appreciated the attention to those of us with issues (celiac). I can't think of an improvement right now.
