WHEN YOU BOOK WITH US, IT’S NEVER JUST A MEAL. IT’S AN EXPERIENCE.
Hi, I’m Ashley Casebier Olson, founder of Southern with a French Twist, and the heart behind every gathering we create. I started this company with one mission: to help people slow down, savor the moment, and share meals that feel as memorable as they are meaningful.
At Southern with a French Twist, we believe that who you invite into your kitchen matters just as much as what’s on the table. That’s why our team is made up of hand-picked professionals who don’t just know their craft—they love what they do.
We’re chefs, servers, stylists, and hosts at heart. Every member of our crew is professionally trained, emotionally intelligent, and deeply committed to creating seamless, meaningful experiences for you and your guests.
We show up early, leave your space spotless, and bring the same care to your Ranch & Retreat that we would to our own family table. From the perfect spoon drag on a dessert plate to the gentle folding of a napkin, we’re here to help you create something unforgettable.
