A+ Service

Catering By Christine is the #1 reason my wedding evolved from a vision to reality. From the very beginning, Pete, Emma, and the rest of their team were so responsive, fielding countless nervous emails and calls from me while always answering my questions and reassuring me that they had everything under control. Emma coordinated the day to perfection and made it run so smoothly, we always had someone attending to us, and I might just trust her with my life! The food was 10/10....the passed appetizers were what dreams are made of, and our guests are still talking about how much they loved all the food. If you're looking for a caterer in the Fairfield County area, you can stop your search now, because it just doesn't get better than Catering By Christine.

October 12 Wedding

Catering By Christine catered our wedding this past weekend at the Burr Homestead in Fairfield, CT. At our tasting, Pete explained the process from start to finish and noted all of our requests. Leading up to the wedding, Pete was always a phone call away to answer any question - no matter how small. On the day of, Pete and his staff arrived on time, were ahead of schedule with set up, and overall provided us with a fantastic evening. His staff were professional, accommodating, and friendly. Julianna, our day of attendant was wonderful not only to my husband and I but to our families as well. The food was amazing and received rave reviews from almost every guest. We continue to get compliments on the passed hors d'oeuvres all the way down to the vegetables! My husband and I are thrilled with our experience with Catering By Christine.
