Not Just Weddings: How a Graze Table Makes Every Celebration Unforgettable
Share
There's a moment at every great party when guests stop mid-conversation, set down their drinks, and just stare at the table.
That moment? That's a graze table.
At Graze by Gunthers, we've built our reputation on Fraser Valley weddings — but some of our most memorable events have been the intimate ones. The baby shower where the mom-to-be teared up when she saw the spread. The 60th birthday where three generations stood side by side pulling prosciutto and aged cheddar and laughing over old stories. The anniversary dinner where a couple celebrated 25 years with the same flavours they'd fallen in love over — because we're Gunthers, and we've been making this charcuterie for over 50 years.
If you're planning a celebration in the Fraser Valley and you want it to feel like something, keep reading.
Baby Showers: Because Moms Deserve More Than a Veggie Platter
A baby shower is one of the most anticipated celebrations in a family's life. The details matter — the flowers, the games, the food. Especially the food.
A Graze by Gunthers artisan charcuterie table brings something store-bought trays simply can't: handcrafted, third-generation European charcuterie made right here in Chilliwack, styled into a spread that becomes the centrepiece of the whole event. Hand-sliced meats, artisan cheeses, fresh honeycomb, seasonal fruits, and house-made accompaniments — arranged into a visual display your guests will be photographing before they eat it.
We handle full setup, styling, and serving ware. You focus on celebrating.
Perfect for: intimate showers of 20–30 guests, or larger gatherings up to 100+.
Milestone Birthdays: 30, 40, 50, 60 — They All Deserve a Spread
A milestone birthday isn't just a party. It's a statement. It says: this person matters, and we're going to do this right.
A graze table elevates any milestone birthday from a gathering into an experience. Whether you're planning a backyard celebration, a venue event, or an intimate dinner party, Graze by Gunthers brings the artisan touch that turns a birthday into a memory.
Our charcuterie is made in-house using traditional European methods passed down through three generations of our family. When your guests taste the difference between our house-cured meats and what you'd find at a grocery store, they'll understand why you chose us.
Pairs beautifully with: wine, cocktails, or a local craft beer selection from one of the Fraser Valley's great breweries.
Anniversaries: Celebrate the Years With Something Timeless
Whether it's a 1st or a 50th, anniversary celebrations deserve food that feels special. Not catering trays. Not grocery store cheese. Something with craft behind it — something with a story.
Our grazing packages include full setup, professional styling, and all serving ware, so the only thing you need to bring is the love story. For a truly memorable touch, ask about our On-Site Artisan Attendance — our third-generation charcutier, attends your event to hand-slice meats tableside. It's a conversation piece as much as a food service.
