About

Your wedding, your rules, major flavor.

Let’s be real: nobody wants boring, predictable wedding food. You’re curating an entire vibe for your big day, and your menu should match that energy.

At Antigua Catering & Events, we don't do cookie-cutter. While our roots are deeply planted in rich, Latin-inspired flavors, our award-winning culinary team can whip up just about anything you’re craving. Want to keep that classic Midwest tradition alive? We’ll put our signature, flavor-packed spin on "meat and potatoes" to make it next-level and actually memorable. Whether you're looking for an elevated comfort food feast, a formal plated dinner, or a late-night taco bar with custom craft cocktails—say less.

Why couples choose us:

  • Food guests actually talk about: We create distinct, crave-worthy dishes that will have your friends talking long after the DJ plays the last song.
  • 20 years of trust: We’ve been serving the Milwaukee area for two decades. We know exactly how to handle the logistics so you can actually show up and enjoy your own party.

  • We do it all: From cocktail hour to the bar service and those crucial late-night bites, we handle the details flawlessly.

** Bonus: Looking for the perfect space? Ask us about The Tennyson, our gorgeous new private event venue in West Allis!

Let’s make some magic (and a killer menu) together!

A dream to work with!

From the very beginning of wedding planning (a mere 8 months ago), Citlali with Antigua Catering & Events was an absolute dream to work with.

She is professional, empathetic and helpful, not to mention funny and relatable.

She helped us curate a menu that reflected our love of food and our personalities. She was organized and responsive, and willing to come see our venue to help make sure her and her staff had everything they needed in order to run a smooth event for us - and they did that and so much more.

My guests' reviews of and feedback about the food has been glowing. They not only helped set up the tables, but helped coordinate placement of desserts and coffee, a gesture that went above and beyond.

I would absolutely use their services again, and as for the food, you can BET we'll be having a date night out at Antigua.

100% recommend this incredible business.

Truly Fantastic Food & Service!

Antigua went above and beyond for our wedding, from checking in to make sure we were on top of our decision for food to day-of making sure everything was taken care of and we did't even have to worry about anything. And beyond the service, the food was truly outstanding! So many of our guests went out of their way to let us know how good the food was. I will recommend them to everyone I know getting married in the Milwaukee area. :)

The BEST Caterers

The food was absolutely amazing and unique. More importantly the staff became part of the event. But I guess got to know them, they interacted with us. They were absolutely the best vendor we had. We cannot recommend them more highly

No other caterers could possibly live up to the high bar set by Antigua

I wish we could give 6 stars. If you're looking for catering for a wedding, Antigua is THE place to go. My now-husband and I were easy-going about almost all of our wedding decisions, but our number 1 priorities were our venue and food. We did not want the standard dishes offered at most weddings, we wanted something that stood out and represented our love for delicious food. We saw the many awards Antigua has earned when we went for our initial tasting and, after having tried their food and hired them for our wedding, we're baffled as to how they don't have many, many more. Citlali, the owner, has won our hearts and anyone thinking about getting married in the Milwaukee area MUST check Antigua out. She made everything so simple for us, and was present on our wedding day to make sure everything ran smoothly. The staff running food and clearing plates were superb for everything from appetizers to helping to set up the dessert station. Every single person at my wedding that I spoke to after dinner raved about the food. Run, don't walk, to Antigua and hope that they aren't already booked for your wedding day.

Delicious food & great service

We had an amazing experience with Antigua! Our guests raved about the food all night, and I'm still getting comments about it. It is not your typical and boring wedding food. It was just what we wanted, fun, and delicious, and the staff went above and beyond since day one. I highly recommend the Paella - it was DELICIOUS!

10/10 Unique and Deli!cious

10/10 recommend!!! We got so many compliments on our food at our wedding for not only being delicious, but also unique! We didn’t want boring wedding food so we found Antigua and we are beyond glad we went with them. Their food options are unique and flavorful and will leave your guests talking about them after. Citali was so professional to work with and always available to answer questions. They were so easy to work with and the wait staff was great as well. Definitely recommend it if you want something different and delicious!

We got the shrimp ceviche, mango quesadillas, and mini cuban sandwiches for apps. Steak Ranchero tacos and mahi mahi for dinner :)

Outstanding catering!a

Choosing Antigua to cater our wedding was a decision we are so grateful we made. Not only is their food OUTSTANDING, but Lali and her staff were beyond professional, helpful, and overall an amazing team and addition to our wedding day. I stayed connected with Lali for the 9+ months leading up to our big day and she was always so willing to answer questions and work to meet all of our requests. Lali and her team arrived just as planned on our wedding day and were so friendly, hardworking, and all-around polished and professional. Our guests RAVED about the food. We chose their short rib & chimichurri chicken and even though my husband and I didn't eat much during our dinner, Lali and her team made sure food was set aside and packed up for us -- it was just as good the next day! We got so many compliments from everyone that was a part of our wedding day on how wonderful our caterer's were, and how delicious the food was. We even received a thoughtful gift from them that truly meant so much. Thank you so much Lali & Antigua team, you truly made our day everything we hoped for!

Tasty, Professional, Excellent

Excellent catering. Food was great. Service was excellent. Communication was very good. Super professional from the first phone call till the end. They went above and beyond promised to make my daughter's wedding day perfect. We didn't have to worry about any logistics and all the guests were extremely impressed with service and food. Lali took a lot of pressure off of our shoulders and did an excellent job responding and handling all of our requests. All the food combinations were creative, new, interesting to look at and, above all, very tasty.

Antigua-Wedding Caterer

Antigua was PHENOMENAL. Lali is absolutely amazing. From our food tasting to our wedding night, we were thoroughly impressed with everything. Lali really is so passionate about what she does, and makes anything you want happen. The appetizers were AMAZING… like literally so good. The salad and main courses were delicious. We had empanadas for our late night snack and chips and guac… 10/10 recommend. Pricing was more than reasonable. The staff was amazing the day of. They set out our linens and went above and beyond for everything. Absolutely go with Antigua for your caterer, you will not regret it!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Great food, great staff, and something different than your typical Wedding Faire. You will be more than satisfied with Antigua's. I worked with Lali and her staff on 7/10/15 and again the staff was excellent, and the food was outstanding. Oh, and the Flan....super tasty!!
