Exceptional food and service

APF was one of our best wedding vendor choices!

All Purpose Flowers provided excellent, yummy, elegant, professional and worry free service for my daughter's wedding. From the table settings to the appetizers to the incredibly well planned and family style food service, we could not be happier with the result!

So happy we found Golzar and All Purpose Flour

We couldn’t be happier with All Purpose Flower and Golzar for catering our daughter’s wedding! The reception was held at our home with about 150 guests, and everything was absolutely perfect.
From the very beginning, Golzar was a joy to work with — creative, flexible, and full of wonderful ideas as we planned the menu. The food was exceptional — every dish was beautifully presented and delicious, from the passed appetizers to the main courses. We had many guests tell us how amazing the food was!
All Purpose Flower also handled the bar service, and Ruben and his team were fantastic. The cocktails were not only delicious but stunning — garnished with dried fruit and fresh flowers, which made them both fun and elegant.
The entire experience was seamless, professional, and full of warmth. We would recommend Golzar and All Purpose Flower to anyone planning a special event — they helped make our daughter’s wedding truly unforgettable.

Our guests said this was the best food they've ever had at a wedding!

The food and service from the All Purpose Flower team was incredible. They brought our vision to life so beautifully, with thoughtful ties to what is in season, sustainable and farm to table. They were kind and hospitable, and we are so grateful for that! Many different guests after told us our dinner was the best food they've ever had at a wedding, and we couldn't agree more. We don't have all our photos back but I attached a few, our Aussie-California western vibe we dreamed of came to life in the most beautiful way!

Thank you Golzar and team!

The best choice at our wedding!

Golzar and her team were one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.

She was a delight to work with from the very beginning, and everyone RAVED about the food... I am still dreaming of the shoyu short ribs. Multiple people said it was the best wedding food they have ever had.

Working with Golzar, you are guaranteed to get a hands on, boutique experience and not just another caterer that mass produces multiple events a weekend. We also used her bartending services and day of coordinator which were fantastic. Her coordinator Monique absolutely knocked it out of the park and made the day smoother than I could have ever imagined.

I HIGHLY recommend working with All Purpose Flower. You will be so glad you did!!

Delicious and Sustainable Catering!

Golzar and team were the absolute best! Golzar was so kind and worked with us to create a menu for our wedding that reflected us as a couple. Sourcing food locally, organically, and sustainably was important to me and this was already in the fabric of All Purpose Flower's approach. Everyone raved about how delicious the food was. There was an incredible level of detail and professionalism! Thank you, Golzar and team!

Everything was perfect!

You could not ask for a better person to bring your wedding vision to life. Golzar guided us throughout the planning process, setting the perfect menu for us, recommending vendors, and coordinating all of the details. She even made my giant tiramisu wedding cake happen! And of course her specialty, the food, was absolutely incredible! Our guests still talk about it!! We had passed hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour, a beautiful family style dinner, and a coffee bar with dessert. In the end, our wedding day was an absolute dream. We were on cloud nine all day! Golzar and the All Purpose Flower team are amazing through and through! We cannot recommend them enough.

Perfect all across the board

I cannot put in to words how unbelievable Golzar and her team were. The support and flexibility to accommodate everything we desired for our wedding was as perfect as it can be. The performed the first flip at the venue we got married on and were able to transform the space in 1 hour. The food was absolutely delightful, the set up was stunning and months later we still get compliments about it. If you have a wedding or event in the central coast you must hire them!
