No one better!!!!

I can’t recommend Ashling enough they are a dream to work with! The food was amazing all I heard throughout the night was how it was the best wedding food people have ever had. They are so organized and on top everything they really help guide you to your perfect vision. Danielle is not only amazing at her job but an amazing person she’s is very warm and friendly after meeting her I felt so much more at ease and suddenly everything wasn’t scary anymore! She also came up with so many wonderful ideas that I certainly would’ve never thought of. If you get the privilege to work with Danielle just know your day with be perfect and everything you dream of!!!!

The Best Wedding Catering!

The catering team at Ashling was absolutely incredible. We truly cannot recommend them enough.

First and foremost, thank you to Karla and the entire Ashling team for helping make our wedding day truly perfect.

From start to finish, the experience was flawless. The food was outstanding, the service was exceptional, and everything was executed seamlessly. We received so many compliments from our guests about how amazing the food was, which came as no surprise to us :)

Karla was an absolute joy to work with from day one. She immediately understood our vision and provided us with the perfect menu options right from the start...we only changed one item! When we requested a change to one of our appetizers choices, she was so quick to make it happen!
Her professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine care made the entire planning process stress free and enjoyable. Every message/email was met with a quick and friendly response, and a willingness to help in any way that she could. Working with her really allowed us to relax and know that everything was in the best hands on the catering side.

One of the most impressive parts of the day was how smoothly everything ran. Seeing Ashling work alongside our other vendors, felt like seeing a team that had done this together for years. The coordination was effortless, and the day could not have gone any better.

We are beyond grateful to Ashling for being such a big part of the best day of our lives.
If you are considering them for your wedding or event, look no further. They are truly exceptional.

Wonderful food

We're so glad we went with Ashling for our wedding! They were absolutely lovely to work with, very communicative and clear, and always willing to answer a question over email. They were especially helpful with the specialty drinks we wanted, helping us figure out the best way to go about it (we wanted specialty drinks that could be mocktails and cocktails), how to organize it, what materials we needed, etc. They removed a lot of confusion from the whole equation!

They were also very flexible with the food itself, and were focused on making sure we were happy with every element of the food throughout the evening. Any change we wanted to make at the tasting was met with an easy, "of course!"

Additionally, I had a cookie table at my wedding that my aunt put together, and Ashling was so helpful in figuring out the logistics and helping to refill the cookies throughout the evening.

I definitely recommend Ashling!

Handled everything, start to finish!

It is worth noting, before getting into the meat of the review, that the food was terrific. Everything came out just right, Ashling worked with us through multiple changes and back and forths, and we couldn't have been happier with the dinner service!
What really stood above and beyond, though, was the little stuff. Anything we threw at our contact and day-of coordinator, Karla, was handled with care and grace. She deserves a special shoutout, because she was such a huge help to the entire process. Couldn't have asked for a better caterer!

Absolutely. Phenomenal.

Ashling was absolutely incredible top-to-bottom! Exceptional service and quality at a completely reasonable rate. So many options - all of them fantastic - from A to Z including appetizers/cocktail offerings, dinner, and dessert. Their cake options were also incredible and they delivered us a fully customized (and delicious) cake with no hassle to be had.

I want to give a particular shout out to Karla. My fiance and I had never planned any major event - let alone a wedding - and to all you prospective planners out there I know how overwhelming it all must seem. Karla was so responsive and engaged from the very first email I ever sent her and her professionalism and warmness combined with what Ashling has to offer was absolutely fundamental to our ultimate choice in caterer for our wedding.

And then came the tasting! We went not really knowing what to expect but we certainly didn't expect to feel the total relief about every aspect of the wedding that we felt afterward. Karla had EVERYTHING mapped out. We walked out of that tasting not just knowing the food for our wedding would be delicious (and it was) but we had a timeline in hand, a map of exactly how our venue would be set up, clear direction on how each major part of the reception would flow - it was incredible. Karla made us feel we were in such expert hands and she absolutely delivered and then some.

My wedding day is going to live on forever as one of the happiest and most beautiful days of my life and Karla and Ashling were a huge part of making that possible. Do yourself a favor - book them today and breathe a huge sigh of relief!

Incredible Experience

Ashling was fantastic at every step for our wedding. They offered us a complimentary tasting before we even booked with them, and the food was amazing (and continued to be on our wedding day—everyone raved about it). I really think the catering team set the tone for our wedding and just made it so beautiful. I would highly recommend Ashling for your catering.

Wedding @ Gramercy!

Ashling was AMAZING! Karla was wonderful, super communicative and such a fun personality - was immediately at ease meeting her and our planners said the same thing! Her and the Ashling team went above and beyond to make sure the evening went without a hitch, even helped our coordinator decorate, and the food and drinks were delicious - every guest told us how wonderful their dinner was! 10/10 recommend :)

Great for dietary restrictions!

So glad we chose Ashling for our wedding catering! They served an all-vegetarian menu while also accommodating other dietary restrictions such as nut allergies, gluten-free, vegan, etc. Several guests told us it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding! We've actually been back to their restaurant multiple times because the food is just that good! Danielle was also great to work with - she was friendly, flexible, patient, and professional.

✨ Ashling is pure magic

When we booked Cloisters Castle for our medieval fantasy D&D wedding, they provided a list of their most trusted vendor recommendations — Ashling catering was far and above the best we could have hoped for! Danielle was our coordinator, and from day one, she helped my partner and me bring our magical themed wedding to life. I appreciated that she was on board with the theme and excited to help us imagine ways to make the space work for us. We booked a tasting with Ashling right away, and got to try all the delicious foods from their chef kitchen. For protein options, we went with parmesan salmon or roasted duck, paired with cheesy grits and broccolini. The flavors were so tasty and we were super impressed with Danielle’s recommendations and advice. She really knows exactly what pairs best with each dish, and we put our trust in her to guide us. Danielle also walked us through table set up, floor plan and dining options — everything was very organized and professional. As the venue itself has so much charm and decor — we really focused more on the dining and experience, and Ashling really came through for us in the best way. On the wedding day, Karla helped coordinate all the logistics, serving and set up. Guests loved the details of each table, how everything was arranged, and the flow of the space, all thanks to Karla and the Ashling team. At the end of the evening, Karla let the team to break down the space and clean up, so my partner and I didn’t have to worry about anything else as we left for the after party. I had no idea before I got married just how much work and effort a catering team does to make a wedding so special. Ashling is truly the magic sparkle behind the scenes. We can’t thank Danielle and Karla enough for being there for us, their kindness and their willingness to go above and beyond to make our day amazing. This is your sign to book with Ashling for your event! :)
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
