You will have an event to remember if you use Best Impressions Catering and The Terrace at Cedar Hill!
The Terrace at Cedar Hill was a spectacular venue, and the food and service provided by Best Impressions Catering was outstanding! Crystal Harrell and her team took the time to understand our vision for the wedding reception and executed it with perfection. They asked all the right questions, made valuable suggestions based on their many years of experience and were flexible throughout the process to meet our unique needs. They also made some great suggestions with regard to vendors they recommended for flowers, wedding planners, etc. All of our guests continue to rave over the wonderful experience they had at my daughter’s reception. I would highly recommend them and with two daughters to go, I’m sure I’ll be back!

Best food and dessert!
Best Impressions had the BEST food of all the caterers we tried. We used them for both our plated dinner and our dessert station. Everyone loved the food and they were very professional. Our venue recommended Best Impressions because they not only have the best food, but they clean up nicely after the event is over. I am so happy we went with them. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about the food and the music.

Great Food Vendor
I would 100% recommend using Best Impressions. They made the tasting super fun and were very helpful when assisting us in picking our food choices. We worked with Adam and he is super knowledgeable about the wedding industry and helped us so much throughout the planning process! The food was amazing and so was the staff!

I believe we work with Best Impressions, it seems, every week, probably 3 to 4 events every weekend. It's awesome. The chemistry between their staff is so smooth, the service, the display of the food, all of it is always on point. It is a pleasure to work with a company that allows other vendors involved to work so easily with them to make a perfect event. As a vendor, we really enjoy when we have permission to eat at their events as the food is always great. They strive for perfection and I truly believe they hit it every time. We highly recommend them!
Best Impressions stands out above other caterers! They are reliable, professional, creative in their presentation - and the food is delicious. I know when I am working with Best Impressions that I never have to worry about problems with the caterer. Their staff - from the first person you meet in the office to the servers at the event are an absolute joy to work with! You can't go wrong with Best Impressions!
Heidi, Ashley, Justin, Adam & everyone at Best Impressions always goes above and beyond for each and every client. We're always proud to work along side them and know the guests are going to be raving about the food and the photo booth!
