Weddings & Events

Salt Smoke & Brine creates weddings and events that feel deeply personal, beautifully layered, and entirely your own. From intimate celebrations to larger gatherings, we bring together custom menus, thoughtful service, curated styling, bar service, vintage details, and seamless event flow to create an experience that feels cohesive from the first arrival to the final toast.
Every event is approached with the same philosophy: hospitality should feel warm, intentional, and memorable. We work closely with each client to shape the atmosphere, pacing, food, and details around the people being celebrated, creating something elevated without ever feeling impersonal or overly produced.
Whether it’s a wedding, milestone birthday, private celebration, corporate gathering, or one-of-a-kind event, Salt Smoke & Brine handles the details with care so you can stay present for the moments that matter most.

## 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.
