I can not say enough about this caterer. I knew within a moment of meeting Lauren, that Catering by Design was for us. From the flexible menu, to the visual creativity, everything was perfect. Not afraid to try new things, or to step completely out of the box, there is no other caterer who could have provided such a wonderful, plated dinner. I have received numerous compliments on the efficency, professionalism, and overall quality of the food. I will definitely use this caterer in the future for all my catering needs. You do, trully get what you pay for, and i wanted the dinners to have the look of an upscale creative gourmet restaurant and i got just what i had hoped for and more. Because above the excellent food and amazingly gorgeous presentation, the service and staff went above and beyond our wildest expectations.

Lauren at CBD is a delight to work with. I had a difficult time finding a caterer who was reasonably priced that provided creative ideas, until I found CBD. Lauren was very flexible and had great suggestions. We had stations at our wedding and all the serving dishes were unique and beautiful. The food looked great and, of course, tasted great. Most importantly, CBD's staff is very professional and prompt. The guests never had a dirty plate in front of them for more than 5 minutes and the staff was eager to help our guests. CBD made our event one to remember! Our guests are still raving about the food and service.

Lauren at Catering by Design was a fantastic person who fit my wedding needs. She helped me plan out my day from the delicious food she provided to the beautiful settings in the reception. Lauren assisted in chair and linen rentals as well as making incredible floral center displays. Catering by Design was my wedding planner and all over go to for my wedding day needs. I personally wanted to thank Lauren for all she did, especially my beautiful bouquet. Catering by Design made planning my wedding easier and overall a more spectacular day. People still rave about the exquisite food she served at my wedding. I would recommend Lauren in a heart beat!
