Fantastic food, service and price!

Emily's catering is as close to perfection as you can find in caterer. Let me start with their service. From the start they answered every question and worked with us every step of the way. And at our daughter's wedding on 11/6/21 they went way above catering service by helping us set up the chairs, decorations, memory table while putting together a beautiful table. Everyone, and I mean everyone was impressed with the food, from the appetizers to the deserts it was delicious!! The staff attended to every detailed, got us more wine to avoid going to the bar and there was so much great food!! They are worth every penny and their prices are very competitive and better than most. They made our daughter's wedding a pure joy. I would recommend them without reservation. Thanks to Jana and her team, Cheryl and Rick.

PHENOMENAL!!! Best choice we made for our wedding

Emily's catering group was by far the best choice we made for our wedding!! Our guests have not stopped raving about how amazing the food was from the appetizers to the main course and desserts.

The appetizers were phenomenal! The variety of options allowed us to have something for everyone. Each appetizer was better than the next. The grazing table full of delicious foods was beautiful. There wasn't one thing we didn't love! Every guest had their plates full with the different stations that were available. Also, we are not cake lovers and the cake they provided was unbelievable.

Emily's catering was so accommodating to different needs in our case having gluten free options.Cheryl was so helpful and timely, answering every question we had so quickly. The planning team made our wedding process so easy and seamless. Their team the day of the wedding was fantastic as well! They checked on us after the wedding making sure everything was going well.

Overall, Emily's catering far exceeded our expectations! We cannot thank them enough for making our wedding day perfect!

Excellence in all areas!

So thankful we chose Emily's Catering Group to cater my daughter's wedding. I knew as soon as I spoke with Rick that he had the experience we needed as we turned our backyard into the event venue. Rick worked with us to create an incredible menu that fit within our small budget and his staff handled everything so that we did not need to think about any of the details during the reception. Additionally, I want to shout out to Marcy and her team for enduring the torrential rain that flowed for most of our event. When the downpour moved our outdoor ceremony to the covered porch, Marcy and her team quickly adjusted and managed to safely deliver the passed apps to guests finding shelter in both the tent and the porch. The plated salad and entree, along with the family-style sides, were all delicious! We are grateful for the staff's flexibility, creativity and professionalism, - they did all the thinking, so we could just be in the moment. Highly recommend!
