Amazing food and great company to work with

We loved our whole experience with Black Tie. The food, from cocktail hour through ice cream sundae bar was incredible. They were responsive, easy to work with and helped us create the dream wedding food from start to finish. Many comments from guests that the food was "the best wedding dinner".

Black Tie was the best wedding plan choice I made!

My husband and I were recently married at Harbourview at Jones Landing on Peaks Island. The Black Tie Company (TBTC) was engaged to handle the wedding planning, the catering, etc. My wedding coordinator, Britta was truly amazing over the many months she helped us with planning. Because of COVID we were both stuck overseas and had to plan the entire wedding remotely. Britta was available for video calls and instilled every confidence that the wedding would fit our vision, even though we were not even able to see the venue in advance. She was great through the planning process from start to finish. Then on the actual day of the wedding, Britta made sure everything went smoothly and was very good at handling stressed out family members. Everyone remarked that the wedding was beautiful and well organized. The catering and the wedding cake were all outstanding. Guests were raving about the food! We truly cannot thank her and TBTC enough. I would recommend them to anyone and hire them again in a minute. Thank you Britta! Adam and Rhen.

Fantastic!

We had an amazing wedding at The Landing at Pine Point and so much credit goes to Black Tie. Britta was so easy to work with and the venue looked amazing. The food was especially impressive. As a wedding professional myself, and my wife as a large event organizer, we have enjoyed catering and observed organization at hundreds of functions and weddings, and can attest that Black Tie ranks with the best of them. Highly recommended!
