Carolima's provided catering and bar service at my reception. I was absolutely blown away by the level of professionalism and service. This was the only vendor that I used for my wedding that EXCEEDED my expectations. I watched in amazement as Sameka and her team delivered the highest quality service. I would hire Carolima's again without hesitation. The shrimp and grits were a hit!

From the first time we talked on the phone Sameka's professionalism shined through. I still remember when we went to the tasting and she had flowers on the table just like a romantic dinner. She made herself readily available to answer any questions that we had. She also went the extra mile to ensure that she found us the best prices for event rentals as well. If you are looking for a way to wow your guest look no further than Carolima's

Sameka and her team were highly professional and organized. They were a complete dream to work with as a planner. Sameka stayed in constant contact leading up to the wedding which was appreciated, and on the wedding day she was very flexible and had an amazing attitude even when quick changes were presented. Her food is amazing, and I heard rave reviews all night from my couples wedding guests. They also did a great job making sure the couple got to try all of their food items and that they got to sneak a cold beverage between pictures and greeting guests. Carolima's is AWESOME!!!

Sameka Jenkins knows how to cook! The first time I went for a tasting with her she had me eating lima beans and cabbage and I don't really like either. Her fried chicken may have been the best I have ever had. Sameka is also extremely professional, responsive and personable. As a planner I appreciate all of these qualities.
