Overall, a beautiful wedding!

A Taste of Excellence catered our wedding at Mapleside Farms, and the whole experience was outstanding! Kaitlyn was our coordinator, and she made the planning process smooth and easy. Pat was the head server; we and all of our guests were impressed with her attentiveness and friendly attitude. The pasta buffet was delicious as well. Highly recommend this vendor!

Guests and everyone loved the food

Working with A Taste of Excellence and Medeana was truly a pleasure and a gift for our wedding. She was able to take our ideas, which seemed to have other caterers confused and made the day ours. They made everything easy for us. The food was excellent, and everyone loved everything. Not having a sit-down dinner and having stations of food that everyone loved was inspired. Everyone complimented the food and food choices, and everyone had their fill. They were even able to help us find a cake designed and baker when ours fell through and the cake was fantastic. It was truly a pleasure having them cater our wedding and we would recommend them to anyone looking for a truly great experience for any event. They made everything easy for us and helped take the worry from us.

EXCELLENT FOOD AND SERVICE

We worked with Kaitlyn for our daughter's wedding at the Old Courthouse in Cleveland, Ohio. I cannot say enough good things about her. She was excellent in communicating with me from another state to put together an amazing wedding.
She worked with all our vendors and coordinated everything from food to setup to the events. She made sure we understood everything and told us about the cost up front.
She is organized, professional and a delight to work with. She kept us calm, when we had concerns, and made us very happy.
You cannot go wrong with this group. The food was excellent. Many guests raved about the dinner and the amount of dinner that was served. THANK YOU for helping make this an amazing day for our daughter.

The food was fantastic...many of our guests commented on how good it was! Medeana was a joy to work with from the very beginning until the night of the reception. She was very attentive to the details and flexible as we changed our minds throughout the process. We had minor complaints, but even those were handled very professionally!!

I absolutely love this dream Venue. The night was an elegant affair. The exclusive catering company was amazing - I worked with Madeline from taste of excellence and she was absolutely perfect. I was worried about it being too bright in June but he lighting was perfectly romantic. Use DJ Troy and pay for the extra sounds system - acoustics in the all marble building are difficult and you need an experienced DJ. Make sure you go with someone experienced I have been to other receptions in this and in the courthouse and a less experienced DJ is a HUGE drag on the evening. Make sure you book EARLY! This venue is good for a old courthouse feel but for a smaller group.

Our food was AMAZING!! We rented our dishware and linens as well which were perfect! We used the staff as our bartenders and they were nothing but professional. Kaitlyn was heaven sent! I could get a hold of her at anytime and she was nothing but accommodating. We received amazing reviews from our guests on how great the food was and how huge the portions were!! I couldn't have had such an amazing wedding day without them!
