Fantastic caterer for our wedding!

We used Wild Thyme for catering for our wedding and I could not recommend them more! The entire process from getting a quote, customizing it, and working with the team up through the wedding date was easy and seamless. We had a lot of questions along the way and Rachel and Jordan were very helpful and responsive.
 
For the wedding, we did action stations (tacos and pasta) and desserts. The presentation and food were both fantastic! We had multiple guests say it was some of the best wedding food they've ever had.

Delicious Catering & Excellent Service

My husband and I used Wild Thyme as our caterer in August 2023. They were really professional, so easy to communicate with, and incredibly flexible with us. Plus, it was awesome to support a woman-owned business.

So we actually forgot to make our 2nd payment (OOPS!) because we completely failed to write down any dates that payments were due, but they were so understanding and flexible with us. They gave us a grace period and even pushed out our 3rd payment so we didn't have to make both payments at the same time. They were also incredibly flexible with us when we had last-minute cancellations after the cut-off date. They let us reduce the plate count for those cancellations and saved us some money, which was awesome. They certainly didn't have to and the cut-off dates were very clear, so we were really thankful for their grace.

In addition to being so easy to work with, their food was so delicious. We honestly didn't love everything we tried at the tasting but they were really receptive to our feedback and offered up really good alternatives to the things we didn't like. We ended up loving everything we served at the wedding and were genuinely impressed that everything tasted so good. Usually you can't expect much from wedding food since it's difficult to make everything taste amazing when you're catering to so many people, but they definitely pulled it off and we got a lot of compliments from our guests about the food. They were also so flexible in customizing things for us. We really wanted a boba bar to surprise our guests and they ended up making their own boba and serving it!! We loved all the flavors we tried at the tasting (ube milk tea, passion fruit tea, and mango tea), especially the ube milk tea. They made all of it fresh that morning and again, it was all very impressive. The boba bar was an absolute hit! We also wanted an instant ramen bar as well and they totally ran with that--also a huge hit :)

We ended up having a medical emergency right when the reception started and the caterers were so kind and understanding. They offered to box up the meals of people that had to leave for the ER so we could drop their meals off for them at the hospital after the reception. Those guests were so grateful that their meals were saved and they had no idea how hungry they were when we dropped off their food.

It was honestly such a pleasure working with everyone at Wild Thyme and we genuinely loved their food so much. You won't regret going with Wild Thyme!

I had the privilege of working with The Wild Thyme Co. this past weekend at a wedding I was planning. They were an absolute pleasure to have on our team! I would choose them hands down for every event if I could. Across the board they get five stars. Their service was incredible, their food incredible, their professionalism incredible. The pre-planning was a breeze. My bride and groom had a blast at their tasting. The day of the wedding, I was running behind on setup and The Wild Thyme went above and beyond to help us get set up in time. I am indebted and grateful. When we put on an event, it's is like playing a team sport and on event day it's game time. Everything flows so beautifully when all your vendors are willing to help each other out to make sure it is a winning game for everyone. Hire them! You will not be disappointed.

There isn't anything that I don't love about working with The Wild Thyme Company! I've worked with them for a few years now and they never disappoint. Not only is their food amazing, they are able to customize their menus for any couple, are friendly, and communicative. Love working with these guys!

YUM, YUM, YUM! Appetizers to entrees, the team at The Wild Thyme Company will rock your guests' world with amazing food & service. We were fortunate enough to create owner Dawn's wedding cake when we first started our business, and we have enjoyed every event since then when we get to work with her team. Freshness is key for us, and thankfully freshness is key for The Wild Thyme too - you will love them. Everyone who works here is a "FOODIE" and loves to create deliciousness - boy, can we relate there!
