We recommend!
Our experience with Culinary Catering 365 was excellent. The communication was great, the food was phenomenal, and the price felt just right. Their service on the day of our wedding (35 people) was amazing and set a great vibe. They were personal and very professional. 10/10 would recommend! (And, our families are STILL talking about how great the food was!)Our experience with Culinary Catering 365 was excellent.

Great experience, great food!
Chef McKenzie and his team catered our wedding at Live Oak Plantation in Pensacola this month. They were incredible to work with and the food was great! Everybody raved about the shrimp & grits and the chicken & waffle inspired chicken on a stick. They were extremely kind and flexible by creating a one-off special vegan plate for my groom since he was the only one with that diet. His team also bartended and cut our cakes for us. Overall great experience & can’t thank them enough for their part in making our wedding so special!Chef McKenzie and his team catered our wedding at Live Oak Plantation in Pensacola this month.

Nothing but excellent
We used this vendor for our destination wedding in Gulf Shores, AL. Being most of our family is from the midwest we decided to treat our 36 guests to a traditional shrimp boil and it was a HUGE HIT!!!
Lindsey was amazing to work with! We talked through options and had the opportunity to make changes after guest counts fluctuated.
The day of the wedding Lindsey and her crew were very friendly, the food was amazing and our guests were impressed by the service. Would highly recommend this vendor!We used this vendor for our destination wedding in Gulf Shores, AL.

Attention to the Details
Awesome food and staff! Provided everything we wanted and more. The quality of the food was amazing. The smashed potato bar was a huge hit with everyone.

Hire this team!
As a COVID bride who researched and planned her wedding from afar, the food was the detail that worried me the most. I'm from New Orleans, and food is the key part of the wedding that my relatives rate the entire wedding on. This team not only met my expectations, but exceeded them. Everything was beyond amazing. The seared tuna on crispy wontons were my personal favorite! I had friends harassing the chef for his beef kabob and sirloin recipe. It was amazing! Also the staff was so attentive and friendly I could not recommend them more. They left the area cleaner than when they arrived. Do yourself a favor and hire Culinary Catering 365- you will not be disappointed!As a COVID bride who researched and planned her wedding from afar, the food was the detail that worried me the most.

Rehearsal dinner
My husband and I hosted a rehearsal dinner in Destin on 10/1/2020 for our son’s wedding and Heywood did a shrimp boil for us that was just perfect. Food arrived on time and hot - and there was tons of it! We had plenty of left-overs. Everyone raved about the shrimp - they were large and done perfectly.
We would definitely recommend Culinary Catering 365 for your special event!My husband and I hosted a rehearsal dinner in Destin on 10/1/2020 for our son’s wedding and Heywood did a shrimp boil for us that was just perfect.

Absolutely Incredible Vendor
I cannot stress enough how impressed I was with Culinary Catering 365. Heyward and Nancy and their team was the perfect choice for my wedding. I have 11+ food allergies and was provided with a beautiful and allergen-free meal specifically for me on my wedding day, which is a huge deal considering I almost never eat out, and I certainly never eat anything catered. I was called several times by them to check on ingredients; they wanted to make sure I could eat on my wedding day. Not only did I have my own special meal (no additional charge), but the food and service they provided to everyone else at the wedding was spectacular. I received SO MANY compliments on the quality and amount. They communicated well, were so kind, and provided a top notch experience. I have never been treated so well by a food service organization, and I fully expected to not be able to eat on my wedding day. Culinary Catering 365 went above and beyond.I cannot stress enough how impressed I was with Culinary Catering 365. Heyward and Nancy and their team was the perfect choice for my wedding.

Perfect Dinner for 170!
Heyward and crew served up the best dinners and appetizers I have had. We referred to it as coastal Italian with seared red snapper, shrimp, scallops and meatballs. We felt so blessed to have him cater my daughter's wedding. The food was amazing. The guests were so complimentary. He and his team were attentive to my daughter and developed a menu that was perfect! Thank you!Heyward and crew served up the best dinners and appetizers I have had.

I'm a wedding director and out of the 200+ weddings that I have directed, they stood out immensely. Between Heyward, his entire staff, and their amazing food, everything was perfection! I would recommend them highly to any of my friends or family!I'm a wedding director and out of the 200+ weddings that I have directed, they stood out immensely.

Very Happy with Culinary Catering !!
Heyward and Jessica were great to work with! Any questions we had - and we had a lot -- they answered that same day or the next day. They are true professionals and we didn't worry about anything. The staff they had working at our reception/dinner were wonderful. The food was awesome. Many guests told us how great they thought the food was. If I had another event, I would DEFINITELY hire them, again!!Heyward and Jessica were great to work with! Any questions we had - and we had a lot -- they answered that same day or the next day.

Flexible, amazing quality for an amazing price, and the most FUN group of people!
Heyward McKenzie and his team at Culinary Catering 365 were freaking awesome. His food didn't taste average, decent, or run of the mill... it was truly divine and SO delicious!! He and his staff were FULL SERVICE! They did our rehearsal dinner AND our wedding, so, we got to taste pretty much everything they serve, and everything was fantastic! Culinary Catering 365 was not just there to provide food, they truly wanted and DID provide an experience and we felt as if we had known them for years! I would recommend their food, service, staff, etc. to anyone! Thank you!!!

Best Wedding food ever had!!
The most consistent thing we’ve heard during and after our wedding was how delicious the food was... “By far the best food we have ever had at a wedding!” We used Culinary Catering 365 and worked with Heyward for all planning. Heyward was calm yet professional and truely delivered on presentation and taste! His staff was very helpful and attentive throughout the both events (used for both the rehearsal and wedding.)

I could not recommend a catering company more highly than I could Culinary Catering 365! Chef Heyward met with us many times before the wedding to make sure we had exactly what we wanted. We had a large wedding with heavy hors d'oeuvres, and his staff got everyone through the line in a very timely manner. The food was amazing, and all the guests raved about how delicious it was. His staff served my husband and me a platter of food to eat during the wedding. Then they packed us a cooler of food to eat later that evening. Everything ran smoothly, looked beautiful, and tasted incredible!

I just could not have been happier with Hayward and his staff. Everything was perfect. Food was amazing! People were saying it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding, hands down. We even had Hayward cut the wedding cake for us. They were willing to do whatever we needed to make it a special day for our daughter. And it was.

Heyward and his team are amazing. We are so glad we chose Culinary Catering 365. I had chosen 2 other caterers (1 for hors devours and 1 for the main menu). However, we made a great decision on changing to Heyward. He is great to work with and very flexible on his menus. His staff id professional, prompt and efficient. The hors devours were amazing and kicked off the reception in style. Guests were loving them. The dinner was unbelievable and Heyward even threw in some complimentary ribs. Everyone raved about the food. I can't say enough about Culinary Catering 365, Heyward and his staff. Trust me you will be thoroughly pleased with Heyward!!!!! I want to personally thank Heyward and his staff for making the wedding a huge success.Heyward and his team are amazing. We are so glad we chose Culinary Catering 365.

Three weeks after our Destin, FL wedding and our guests are still talking about how wonderful the food was! Heyward and his team truly are top notch. They went above and beyond throughout the whole process. We had a small, Backyard wedding and were a bit overwhelmed the day of - Heyward and his team arrived early and even helped us with the set up. I truly can't say enough good things about the whole experience. I think my dear friend said it best, "the food is amazing! It doesn't take like wedding food at all - it tastes like good restaurant food." Thank you, thank you, thank you Heyward!! You made our day so special.Three weeks after our Destin, FL wedding and our guests are still talking about how wonderful the food was! Heyward and his team truly are top notch.
