What started out as a creative outlet for Alanna McGlynn while she was in grad school during the pandemic soon turned into a business making custom, themed charcuterie boards. That’s when Board & Boozy was born. “I never thought it would be where it is today,” says Amanda.

She makes beautiful platters for any occasion and around any theme. Some of her most requested orders are for bridal showers, bachelorette parties and for the bridal party to enjoy while getting ready on the big day. Yum!

How did she come up with the name of her business? “I love a good theme and hosting events with cute appetizers and cocktails,” says Amanda.

She shops at several grocery stores, including Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, ShopRite and Amazon, for her assortment of meats, cheeses, nuts, jams, fruits, crackers, cookies and adorable condiments like mini jars of Nutella and Tabasco.

Instagram-worthy and tasty, Alanna says, “Couples book me because of my attention to detail and how much time I spend catering my boards.” Located in Monmouth County, Alanna offers pick up or delivery. She takes orders via Instagram direct message.
