    Perfect 11/10

    Everyone commented on the food and catering service! Couldn’t have had a better experience with this company from the start. I’d recommend really taking advantage of their planning resources from early on and using it with vendors to all be on the same page / especially if you have an outside planner/coordinator.

    Jessica,
    Thank you for your wonderful review. We are so pleased to hear that you are so happy with our services. It was truly our pleasure to serve you and your family!

    Best caterers!

    We used Tasteful Occasions to cater our wedding, and they did a fantastic job! They were very timely with all of our communication, and sent detailed emails to ensure that we had everything we could possibly need for the wedding. Kim was absolutely wonderful! She made sure that everything went well during the planning process through the day of the event. There was a minor hiccup that she dealt with quickly for us, which was much appreciated. The food was delicious, and even after the event I had guests tell me how much they had enjoyed the meal. We were able to customize our menu to exactly what we wanted. I 100% recommend Tasteful Occasions for catering a wedding or any special event!

    Tasteful Occasions's reply:

    Hannah,
    Thank you so much for your kind words and wonderful review. We are so happy with how pleased you are. It was truly an honor to be a part of your wedding day!

    Highly recommend Tasteful Ocassions

    I cannot recommend Tasteful Ocassions enough. They catered my daughter's wedding in June. 185 guests, plated dinner. We had so many compliments from guests on the food. The appetizers were fresh, hot and the servers went around frequently. The dinner was delicious, very ample portions, and again we got rave reviews. I was concerned if they could do a large group like ours for a plated dinner but everyone was served promptly and it was so well orchestrated. Crystal was fabulous to work with.

    Perfect Choice

    I want to thank you for everything that you did to help us plan the most amazing wedding. The food was awesome - we've received so many compliments! I know you tried to accommodate us on every level. Nothing was too much trouble and you matched our vision perfectly. The attention to detail was not missed.

    I specifically want to mention that your (our) wedding coordinator Crystal was the best! She was by our side the whole way and ensured that everything was perfect for us. She's definitely a keeper!

    Thank you again!!

    Excellent service

    As a novice with event planning, they were very helpful and everything was delivered as expected. They were on time, set up was so efficient and the food was very tasty. I would highly recommend Tasteful Occasions.

    Incredible Service

    Tasteful Occasions was a dream to work with! They were incredibly helpful and accommodating during the planning process. The food and dessert were delicious. Our guests raved about the food stating it was “the best wedding food they had ever had.”

    Catering for Home Party

    Tasteful Occasions provided the food for my daughter’s wedding last November and they did such an outstanding job that I called on them to cater my husband’s 70th birthday party which we held at our home. The chef (Larry) showed up on time and was fully prepared to work with our timeline. After a leisurely cocktail hour with multiple hot h’orderves we moved on to a delicious salad followed by the main course with a filet mignon carving station and chicken Marsala for the non-beef eaters. All of the sides were hot and tasty and beautifully presented. Larry left my kitchen spotless and even asked for a broom to make sure the floor was left as he found it. I can highly recommend Strictly Catering…not only for weddings but also for special occasions at your home!

    A fairytale come true with Tasteful Occasions!

    It's honestly hard to find the words to convey how appreciative I am for the Tasteful Occasions team for all that they did to make our day as special and as wonderful as it was. They made our wedding in November the absolutely most picture perfect day... All of our food was INCREDIBLE!!! I can't even tell you how many compliments we received on dinner and all of the appetizers. They even blew it out of the water with our late night grilled cheese bar! Our guests are still raving!! I know how much time and work went into the entire event, and their entire team are so incredible and appreciated for all of their hard work. From the servers to the bartenders, everyone was so wonderful and sweet. They have truly built a fantastic team and made all of our food/drink dreams a reality! And even before the wedding... I can't thank them enough for their patience with me! I had tons of questions and changes I wanted to make throughout the planning process, but the team was always so positive and sweet, and I can't tell you how much that meant to me! They all definitely made the wedding planning process 100000x easier for me, and I will forever be thankful for them and their help every step of the way. To sum it all up, you NEED to book Tasteful Occasions. They helped to create the fairy tale wedding of my dreams, and they will create yours too!

    Delicious food!

    Tasteful Occasions were amazing to work with!! They were so accommodating and their food was absolutely delicious. We ended up adding food after our tasting since we couldn’t decide!

    Incredible Caterer!

    Tasteful Occasions was an absolute dream to work with. From the very beginning they worked with us to craft up the perfect menu, gave us helpful advice, and were open and honest with us. They made sure we were taken care of from the minute we signed the contract up until the final moments of our wedding. Now on to the food! It was top-notch, delicious, beautifully displayed- all at a great value. We got so many compliments from our guests. The staff were so professional and treated us like a king and queen- always refilling out glasses, getting our food plates, and checking in on us. They also set up our dessert table which was absolutely gorgeous. We didn't have the most ideal weather but Tasteful Occasions truly made the day so special. Thank you for everything!

    Highly Recommend!!!

    We are so happy we chose Tasteful Occasions for our wedding! We utilized their catering, coordinator, and bartending services. This included a clean up and set up service. We did not have to lift a finger all day - Crystal, our coordinator, along with her team, took care of everything!! The staff was all very pleasant and attentive to our guests. The food is incredible and we had no issues setting up our tasting and menu choices. Crystal and Kim were easily accessible for any questions or concerns that came up along the planning process. The forms they provided to assist in planning were incredibly helpful and detailed, which ensured clear communication when it came to event timeline and decorations. Those reasons alone would be enough to make TOC a great choice for any wedding. But on top of all it, TOC cares about their customers. When food prices exploded during COVID, TOC reached out to us and let us know they would use the prices we agreed on when we signed our contract and absorb the extra cost. Again, we are SO happy we chose TOC for our wedding, and we highly recommend them!!!

    Best food and service ever!!

    Searching for a caterer for your wedding is hard work. We wanted options and great food. Kim and her team went above and beyond what we could have asked for. When setting up the tasting everything was fresh and she was so helpful in following what we asked for. In March when everything was getting shut down we were nervous about our wedding in October 2020. Kim answered all of my questions, texted me, called me, emailed me, to make sure I was taken care of! We were going back and forth with so many things! We did a COVID wedding with less guests than originally planned. We even changed our venue 3 months before and Kims response was we can do it!! Without hesitation they went above and beyond serving the cocktail hour covered and just making everyone feel safe. Everything was fresh and cooked right on site! We got so many compliments about the food, the staff and bartenders! They even made sure our guests with special diets had a delicious meal other than what was served! We couldn't have asked for a better team to work with! Thank you Tasteful Occasions for everything! We hope to be at one of our events again and enjoy your lovely food!!

    Professional and Great Food!

    I would highly recommend Tasteful Occasions! We had them cater our Nov 2021 wedding. Kim was so easy to work with throughout the preparation process - very responsive, transparent, and professional. On the day of, everything went so smoothly. We loved the food personally and received high praise from our guests too! All of the staff working our day were great, both the servers and bartenders! Thank you, Tasteful Occasions, for being a huge part of our great day!

    Wonderful partner

    We were very pleased with Tasteful Occasions. The quality of food was great and their staff was professional and helpful. Another great contribution was their wedding day planner - the document helped a lot to ensure we did not miss anything and helped to make the day run smoothly.

    Very happy

    My husband and I were very happy with TOC, from the very beginning they were very responsive with us and even to the end Kim the owner told us to call her whenever we had questions. We probably changed our minds on things 10 times and we never got any push back, they would send us an updated proposal a day later. I many times had so many questions for her she would just call me and explain everything. They have many options of food to chose from and are very flexible, they can do anything the couple wants. The tastings for both food and cake give you a nice idea of what kind of foods to pick. They also have a meeting with you a few months before the wedding to make sure your on track with things you don't even think about, such as napkin folds, amount tables needed, and many other things. Kim and her team have it all covered. We did not have to worry about renting linens and tables elsewhere. We also loved the bar package they provided, they not only have bartenders but also for an extra price they can provide any chasers and items needed for the bar. It was a fresh of breath air for us to only have one person to coordinate all these big things with!! We are so happy we chose TOC and we loved their food. Their appetizers for cocktail hour are amazing and were raved about along with the rest of the food. I wish we did not have such high nerves that day so we could have eaten more!

    Amazing Experience!

    Kim and her staff were exceptional at our wedding! They really went above and beyond to make our day the best day ever! Kim personally made sure my husband and I ate and were well taken care of during our reception, and what I loved most was that we were able to go upstairs, to where our reception was held, during cocktail hour, and Kim brought out a huge arrangement of food for just Noah and I to eat! It was perfect for my husband and I because neither of us really wanted to eat, but it was a perfect getaway just for a few minutes so that we could get something in our stomachs! During our reception, Kim checked on us many times throughout the night asking if we needed anything. All of our guests raved about the food(especially the bacon wrapped scallops) and how great the staff was!
    Planning a wedding during a pandemic wasn't easy, but thankfully we had Kim, Crystal, and the others to help us through!
    I highly recommend Tasteful Occasions for any event!
    Thank you again!

    Delivered on What They Promised

    From the planning stages to the Wedding Day, Tasteful Occasions made the process fun, seamless, and easy. They delivered on what they promised and the food and desserts for the Wedding were outstanding. Additionally, they stepped in and provided the bartending service late in the planning stage, when the original bartending service backed out. On the Wedding Day, they were attentive and available for any support that was needed by the wedding party. I would recommend Tasteful Occasions for anyone who is planning a wedding.

    All we can say is WOW...and also thank you! You all made our day so easy and so stress free. Mickey was phenomenal, and brought all of my visions to life with the decorations!

    And then there was the food....OMG. It was everything we had hoped for! The guests could not stop talking about the cocktail hour, the meal, and the service. Thank you for catering to all of our needs!

    You guys are the best! Thank you again & we will keep you in mind for future events :-)

    Phenomenal!

    We just had our wedding yesterday and I couldn't wait to write about how excellent everything was because of Tasteful Occasions. We got SO many compliments on the food and cupcakes throughout the entire night, and Mickey & Kim were the coordinators from heaven. Also, it's a really good sign when your other venues ask who your caterer is during the planning process, and they say "Oh my goodness, wonderful choice!" when you tell them it's Tasteful Occasions. If you want to enjoy your wedding and not stress about the small details, look no further as to who to book. This company goes above and beyond in every way and we are forever thankful!!

    Tasteful Occasions's reply:

    Abby,
    Thank you so much! I am so glad your wedding day was such a success!! You are an absolutely gorgeous bride... and your dress was amazing!!! It was such a pleasure to work with you both and your family and friends!!! Thank you for your kind review!!!

    Impressive in all

    Mother of the Bride perspective: Kim was the best! She knows how to plan every detail - especially with every last minute change we needed to make with the virus restrictions and hurricane rains. She even came through with bartenders and alcohol service when another vendor "ghosted" us right before the wedding. The food was delicious and the service was outstanding. The team serving our guests was sooooo well trained and attentive. Every detail was perfect!!!!

    Amazing wedding caterer!!

    Tasteful Occasions did an AMAZING job with our wedding. Kim was extremely helpful in planning our wedding. We were impressed with the entire organized planning process throughout the year, and not to mention the food! We were originally going to book another caterer, but once we went to the private tasting (which was so nicely done) we were sold. Their food is beautifully presented and had exactly what we were looking for. On top of that, Kim helped us plan the entire year by checking in and organizing every detail. While planning a wedding during Covid-19 isn't ideal, Kim literally saved our day by talking through small changes with us and helping us find bartenders and alcohol service when our bartender from another company backed out the week before. TO's staff was EXCELLENT at the wedding. They all checked in with Luke and I to make sure our glasses were full, we were eating and that we were taking time to enjoy the appetizers. I couldn't be more pleased with choosing Tasteful Occasions. They are so professional, on top of every detail, and were so much fun to work with. Kim, Crystal, and everyone on the team, thank you so much for making our wedding an amazing experience!! Highly recommend!

    Our covid wedding

    Do yourself a favor and book with Tasteful Occasions right away! Kim and the whole crew were so easy to work with. They gladly accepted any changes or updates we wanted to make leading up to the day before our wedding! They made sure they had every little detail correct and wanted us to have a perfect day and the best menu. With less than 48 hours notice, my husband and I had to decide to move our entire wedding outdoors due to a restriction that was put into place last minute. Tasteful Occasions were so helpful with making these changes. We felt as ease knowing they were our catering vendor and knew they would pull this off no problem. Our wedding day was amazing and our food was amazing. We would love to work with them again in the future!

    Great Customer Service

    Emailed them for a tasting. They emailed back the next day and that same weekend, we were invited to go for our tasting. The food was amazing! We were also told that if we liked something we tasted but wanted it changed/tweaked a little bit, they would accommodate us. We really only tweaked one thing but after the tasting, there was no doubt we were hiring them to cater our wedding.
