Hire Big City Now! :)

Big City catered our wedding at Cypress Grove Estate House, and did an amazing job!! During the planning process, they made communication, scheduling, and tastings super easy for us (shout out to Ally Streeter, she was a life saver and oh so organized!). They were so patient with my millions of questions and ideas. And everyone on staff for wedding day made our time so special!! The entrees were delicious (chicken with herb beurre blanc, and the Captain Morgan beef medallions). Oh and the hors d'oeuvres were an absolute favorite! The spinach artichoke bites are a must, and we really enjoyed the ahi tuna won tons as well. The only thing I was a tad disappointed in were the sides we chose (roasted lemon asparagus and truffle mashed potatoes) as they were a bit bland, but I blame us/personal preference for that as we chose them last minute without having tried them. So my word of advice to couples is to go ahead and work sides in to their catering tastings too. Overall, I very much recommend Big City to cater your wedding or any other special event!

Amazing Catering Service

After I found my dream wedding venue, I never would’ve imagined that I would indirectly discover my dream wedding caterer at the same time! My wedding venue was Luxmore Grande Estate located in Winter Springs, FL. Big City was the catering company that was partnered with my venue, and so that eliminated the stress of me having to search for a catering company. And I am SO glad and fortunate that Big City was my catering vendor for my special day!

Big City Catering was phenomenal. The food was delicious, and we received so many compliments about how good the food was at our wedding. They were also extremely easy to work with as communication was easy and the staff members were extremely professional. We primarily communicated and worked with Ally S., and she was incredible. I had some concerns about a family member who has Celiac Disease, and so I wanted all of our food at the wedding to be strictly gluten-free. That was no problem for Big City as they had many gluten-free options and alternatives, and I never once had to worry about cross contamination. The tasting was amazing too, as I was able to bring my mother (who has Celiac Disease), my dad, and my husband without any additional charges! I highly recommend this catering company.
