Our Team
Dakota Ridinger
Director of Catering & Events
Helping clients with their catering needs is Dakota’s passion and her profession. A seasoned veteran in the world of catering and venue sales, you’d be hard-pressed to find her anywhere without her planner in hand! As a Lancaster native, Dakota has her pulse on trends and vendors to help make your event truly special. And as a newlywed, she has firsthand knowledge of what it takes to plan a wedding. In her free time she likes to linger in coffee shops for far too long, walk her dogs and enjoy a nice meal at a locally-owned restaurant.
