Simply the Best!

We just finished up a Labor Day weekend wedding at our home in Wilton, CT, and Chris & the team at Carriage House were simply the best, while Allison, the Captain for our event, was exceptional. The food was fabulous, from cocktail hour appetizers through the main courses, the staff was exceptional and professional, and the setup and breakdown happened without a hitch. These guys really took a beautiful day and made it next level, and all our guests raved so highest marks to Carriage House!

October 3rd 2021 Sunday Wedding

I honestly cannot believe how smoothly the whole night went!! From Kaye and Allison checking up on me frequently, to the beauty of all the tables that I walked out to, I could hardly believe my eyes. The food was amazing, delicious, and the wine and liquor kept coming, we had our own personal waiter for the sweetheart table (what??!!!). Anyway, we felt like the King and Queen of the night, and your staff was so kind, generous, and attentive to all of our guests. Everyone kept raving about the food, and our family said the appetizers were incredible. Everything was on time, and perfectly executed. One guest even said how they loved that you put the cakes on the table, that way they didn't forget to eat it. It was a fairytale experience and we are so incredibly grateful for you and your team for checking in on us at every step of the way. We absolutely will recommend you to all of our friends, and would like to know where we could get more of your food (hehe). Thank you so so so much, we really are so happy, and you are absolutely right, there are no do-overs, and our wedding was done to perfection. Please send your staff our love!

Chris was amazing! We had a good feeling about him and what Carriage House had to offer on our first meeting. The food was unbelievably excellent. The staff had appetizers set aside for us during the cocktail hour, which was exactly what we needed! Our guest only raved about how soooo tasty everything was! Chris also help us select a few of our other vendors and we were so happy with all of his suggestions. We felt so taken care of from start to finish before and during our wedding! We are so thankful for all the help and guidance for our wedding from Carriage House Catering.

There really should be many more reviews on here based on the testimonials that are given for Carriage House Events and Catering elsewhere! Chris and team handle all the coordination of your event, not only the food but all the day of coordination to have your day run smoothly. Bar service, rentals, preparation meetings, day of set up....they got all the details that we planned through them executed the way we envisioned. Everything was set up perfectly. We find it amazing they can keep track through sometimes a year or more of planning each individual couple and all the things they want, and get it right each time. Chris has amazing customer service. He was always available to answer a question practically immediately after we asked it by email. If he couldn’t answer right away he let us know when he would. He always put our minds at ease for any questions or concerns that came up. The staff is incredibly nice and kind and accommodating. All very professional, they always there for whatever we needed and keeping everything on track. The bartender super friendly. The servers swift, and showing the utmost concern for a small slip of a guest. Asking if she was ok and if we needed anything to seek any one of them out for assistance. The food was spot on. We wish we had a chance to really try it. The few bites we had were not nearly enough!! Many of the guests commented on how everything tasted. We were very appreciative that the chef came out to ask us personally how everything was. Superb service, quality food, exceptionally professional and accommodating, and a great value for all that is involved. You won't regret hiring Chris!

Chris and his team are the best at what they do! We had our May wedding at Tarrywile Mansion with 90 guests for passed appetizers and a seated dinner. The timing and planning was executed smoothly and the food! Everyone had not a bad thing to say about the food. It was fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. From first bite to last it was some of the best bites of food I ever had. His captains were attentive and the bridal party never felt left out as we were doing pictures during cocktail hour. We had servers and captains bringing us appetizers and drinks outside on the Mansion grounds. Chris met with us 3 times before our big day and was very communicative via emails and calls.

As the mother of the groom I was asked to be their event planner and while I'm great at checklists and details, when you're not a professional planner and haven't planned a wedding in EONS, there is a great deal to think and worry about. After my first call with Chris at Carriage House Events & Catering, I knew that my worries were over. He was awesome to work with and I loved that his key focus was always on the Bride and Groom and what they were really after in their experience of this special day. He also provided us with a list of the vendors he recommends - all of whom were professional, efficient, competent and never had to be called more than once to get something done. It was because of this great team of professionals that the day was flawless. I cannot say enough about how wonderful working with Carriage House was but I can tell you that if you are looking for that perfect day to begin your Happily Ever After - then begin with your first call to Chris at Carriage House.

Carriage House Caterers

Dear Chris,

Our family cannot thank you and all your staff enough for your uncanny ability to make lemonade when life hands you lemons! Rachel and Dov's wedding this past Saturday, May 13, 2017 was a disaster as far as the weather was concerned. We spent all day looking out of the window wondering how we were going to pull this off!

Rachel wanted so much to have the outdoor ceremony we had planned for the past year and a half. Your staff made that happen, and just took it in stride, calming all of us in the process.

So many of my guests commented on how delicious the food was, and how your wait staff was so very attentive. Your captains made sure everything went as planned, and compensated for and solved those situations that didn't.

We were so very pleased with your confidence, professionalism, and the outcome of a wedding that wasn't going to go as planned because of the weather. The Waveny is a beautiful setting even when an outdoor wedding is not in the cards!

I can't say thank you enough times. Please let your staff know that they were well appreciated. You can always count on us for a recommendation, and I will be posting the above letter on The Wedding Wire as well.
