Best Caterer and Staff!

We got married at the Windmill Winery in November 2019. We were fortunate to have the venue approve the use of an outside cater, Bruce Brown Catering. Susan, Bruce, and her staff were amazing to work with throughout the year. To start, we had so much fun during our food tasting a few months before the big day; they made it super special and something to remember through the hecticness of wedding planning, it was a fun little date night for the two of us. The day of I didn’t have to worry at all! Susan and her team helped set up the venue including my extensive seating chart for 165 guests. I must admit I am a bit of a control freak, so it was very hard for me to give my trust over to another to make the images in my head come to life. They exceeded my expectations! Everything was absolutely beautiful and perfect! In addition to the set-up, the food was AMAZING! We did chicken and beef with salad, veggies, and layered potatoes. We are still getting compliments on the food and decor even months later! The Bruce Brown Catering team were professional and helped the planning go off with such ease, thank you Susan, Bruce, and team!!

Talk of the Wedding

Bruce Brown was amazing from beginning to end. Susan and Bruce are both amazing. Susan was willing to come out and look at the reception space (private home for wedding reception) before my husband and I had even signed a contract because I was concerned about space. She put together a floor plan that was flexible and helped me realize my dream of a backyard wedding was possible. The food was AMAZING! So many of our guests talked about the food even days after the wedding was over. We had three types of appetizers and then a buffet style brunch. Susan also put together the florals on our personal cake beautifully and was such a nice personal touch. We appreciate Bruce and Susan so much for making our day so memorable and special for not only us but everyone who was our guest. They went above and beyond our expectations. We cannot wait to work with them again in the future.

Bruce Brown Catering is the BEST!

Words cannot express how awesome Bruce, Susan and the rest of the Bruce Brown Catering team were from the planning stages of our wedding to the day of. You all truly made our wedding extra special with your dedication, attention to detail, service and patience.

Susan – I have to give a special shout out to you for going above and beyond, even in areas where most catering companies wouldn’t care to help out with. From acting as a second planner on the day of (in addition to our planner who was also busy being a bridesmaid) to being flexible and accommodating with our guests’ food allergies and finally for helping us cut costs for the extra tables and chairs that we needed, there are no words to express our gratitude. Since the beginning, your communication has been on point and never did we feel like just another wedding to you. I think what sets Bruce Brown Catering apart all the others is how much you care, which really helped ease many of the stressors that can come with planning a wedding.

Now let’s talk about the food! In addition to yummy hors d’oeuvres, our guests had a selection of a NY strip steak with a red wine sauce, grilled chicken breast with a balsamic reduction, macadamia nut crusted mahi-mahi and finally (my favorite) a vegetable wellington. Not only did the guests rant and rave about how delicious the food was, but they also complimented how the food came to their table nice and warm. With 170 people to feed, your team did an amazing job – especially with making sure all the steaks were perfectly cooked, which they were. The pride Bruce has in his cooking really shows with the quality (and local) ingredients that he uses as well as the presentation. My husband and I know that our wedding isn’t the only time we will work with Bruce Brown again. We are already talking about future events where we’d like to have them cater for us!

We are so happy to have selected Bruce Brown Catering for our wedding and want to thank everyone again for the amazing experience!
