Hello All!
We’ve been incredibly busy lately with large, incredible events! We have to give major thanks to the amazing Crushed Ice Catering Serving & Bar Staff who know how to get the job done. They pushed through three long days and nights with us to make these fabulous events happen. It all began the last week of February.

On a sad note, our longtime server, Eran, has left Crushed Ice Events and made his way back to his native North Carolina. We will miss you dearly, Eran. Thanks for all the hard work, the laughs, and the serenades. We’re so proud of you!
Spring is just around the corner and that means Derby & Wedding Season. We are looking forward to the sunshine, warmer weather, and wonderful spring events!
