Amazing Food, Service, Customization, and Great Value

Autumn's Custom Catering went above and beyond for our wedding and we are truly grateful we found them!! Claudine was amazing with handling allergies and dietary restrictions in our family. The vegan nut-free pesto was so good that my mom, who is a very picky eater, even ate lots of it. All of our guests had high praise for the food, drinks, and desserts. The bar service was top-notch and worked seamlessly alongside our venue's wine bar.

We asked for 3 custom cheesecake flavors for our wedding cheesecake and all of them were a huge hit! The honeycomb cheesecake she made could truly be her signature dish it was so good! We hope we can commission a mini one for our future anniversary. You could really tell she put so much thought and care into making the flavors.

Price was one of the more affordable rates we were able to find (especially for the great quality and value) which made it all possible. Service was also fantastic! They brought out hors d'oeuvre for our wedding party during the cocktail hour photo session so they didn't get too hungry. They were also very attentive to us and made sure we got food and packed up all leftovers. Very organized and super efficient and VERY DELICIOUS!

We highly recommend them to everyone (especially if you have any allergies). Loved their service so much we've been referring several engaged friends to them.

Claudine and her team were fantastic. The food was amazing and we had several options to choose from. She was very considerate of food allergies. She has lovely team of employees working for her. Zoey and Glen were our day of wedding coordinators and they were energetic, extremely reliable and helpful with the organization during the event. Highly recommend.
