Delicious food and wonderful to work with!

Stephanie and her team did an amazing job for our wedding. Her food was delicious and our guests were happy and full! We loved her options for classy comfort food (that cornbread is to die for), and she is affordably priced. They handled multiple last minute and originally unknown dietary needs and restrictions of our guests without hiccup. Stephanie also helped us fulfill my dream of serving Carvel ice cream cake as our wedding cake. She was extremely flexible in altering her staff’s arrival time to coincide with the delivery of our cakes to be stored in her freezers, facilitated our champagne pour at no additional cost, despite us hiring a secondary mobile bar vendor, and had beautiful mismatched China for our dinner tables that complimented our vintage theme perfectly. The day went smoothly and all of her staff were extremely professional and efficient. They provided our linens, all tableware, champagne pour, cutting/serving of cake, and even let us take home our leftovers! Would highly recommend!

Great service!

The best catering service out there, Stephanie and her team were so amazing on my big day. She always answered any of my questions and always went above and beyond for me, the food was so amazing and I got to try the items before hand and was able to switch or add anything I wanted before the wedding. A must book!

Great food, great service

Country Lane Catering went above and beyond for our wedding. I can’t thank them enough for how it all turned out. We had two guests that required special plates due to allergies and they were extremely accommodating. Our favorites were the southwest egg rolls, crab cakes, and roasted potato salad. I would definitely recommend booking them and hope we have an opportunity to use them again!
