The Man Behind the Menu

Crafted Cuisine, Cherished Memories.

Executive Chef at Blossom & Brie, Chef Wesley Robbins has over 28 years of fine-dining and events experience at high end restaurants and country clubs. He has catered for large groups of up to 600 and has created unique and personalized menus for the most discerning clients for in-home and smaller catered events.

Chef Wesley has always worked with local farmers and artisans and is extremely excited about the opportunity to work directly on the farm himself and grow and harvest food for use in his delicious creations. His dishes are made from scratch with the finest and freshest ingredients in our area, either from our farm or our local providers. When ingredients are unavailable locally, he takes great care in sourcing from responsible and reputable vendors.

Chef Wesley takes pride in delighting his guests with dishes that elevate their dining experience. He feels that the opportunity to then serve his creations within the natural environment and beauty of the farm is truly a complement to his dishes.

Your Dream Wedding Day is important to us, and Chef Wesley will work with you to make sure that the quality, taste, and presentation for your special event is just perfect.

From an exquisite array of fine cheeses and charcuterie to Chef's renowned mini crab cakes and Nashville Hot sliders, our culinary creations offer an endless selection of delectable bites for you and your guests to savor during cocktail hour.
