Meet Your Team

The people behind your day.

“Esum handled every plate, every timeline, every last detail like it was their own family. Guests are still texting us about the shrimp scampi and Chef Angel's stuffed grouper. Elisabeth ran the day so smoothly we actually got to enjoy it.”

Wedding Reception · 180 Guests
The Treasury on the Plaza · St. Augustine, FL

“Booked Esum for a client-facing lunch on 48 hours notice. Setup was immaculate, staff was polished, and every dietary request was labeled and accommodated. Our CEO asked for their card.”

Priya Ramesh
Corporate Luncheon · 60 Guests
Deerwood Corporate Park · Jacksonville, FL

“Jeanette turned our vision into a room we didn't want to leave. The candles, the linens, the way the buffet flowed — my mama cried. Chef Angel's brown butter chicken piccata was the star of the night.”
