Curated Hospitality Services

Our curated hospitality service is where food, atmosphere, service, and thoughtful details come together to create a complete experience. Rather than simply providing a meal or staffing an event, we shape the entire guest journey, from the way a table is set and a room feels to the pacing of service, the menu, the bar, styling, rentals, and finishing touches.
Every experience is tailored to the people, place, and occasion. We layer in thoughtful design, vintage and found pieces, seasonal details, intentional menus, and warm, attentive service so the event feels cohesive, personal, and beautifully lived-in rather than overly produced.
At Salt Smoke & Brine, curated hospitality means creating a setting people don’t just attend, but remember.

## About

Salt Smoke & Brine is a Michigan-based, family-run curated hospitality company founded by Head Chef and Owner Jen Biermann. Built from the beginning around the strengths of the people closest to her, the company has grown into a deeply personal collaboration where food, design, logistics, and hospitality come together with intention.
Jen leads the culinary
 vision, creating refined seasonal menus rooted in flavor, storytelling, and the emotional connection that happens around a shared table. Sous Chef Ryan Biermann brings precision, creativity, and a steady hand to the kitchen, helping shape each experience from preparation through the final course. Derek, Director of Operations & Logistics, is the backbone behind the scenes, managing the details, movement, setup, equipment, and problem-solving that allow each event to feel seamless.
Together, the team creates private dinners, weddings, destination events, retreats, and bespoke gatherings that feel intimate, layered, and entirely individual. Rather than working from a formula, Salt Smoke & Brine draws on each person’s strengths to create experiences that are thoughtful from every angle.
That philosophy extends beyond the kitchen. Salt Smoke & Brine also incorporates thoughtfully sourced vintage pieces, collected tableware, textiles, décor, and one-of-a-kind finds into its hospitality experiences, creating settings that feel storied, distinctive, and beautifully lived in.
At its core, Salt Smoke & Brine is a family company built around a shared love of food, beauty, gathering, and making people feel cared for. The result is hospitality that feels elevated without losing its warmth, personal without feeling informal, and memorable long after the table has been cleared.
