Amazing and Delicious

Crave did amazing for a seated dinner. All of our guests really enjoyed the food. The Chicken Piccata I decided to have was so delicious! They did our cake as well. We originally were going to go with a funfetti but after trying their carrot cake we had to change our mind. Bar service was also amazing. We had the "Marry Me" Mule and it was a hit with all our guests. They were also super accommodating when we needed to come in on a weekend to do our tasting as we lived out of town and couldn't take time off to come during the week.

The Most Delicious Wedding Food Ever

Food was one of the most important aspects of our wedding for us, and we couldn't have asked for a better vendor to make our culinary dreams come true. So many of our guests have said that our food was the best wedding food they've ever had. Meredith and the team were creative and accommodating and so inspiring when it came to our menu. I would stop your search now and go with Crave Catering for your wedding. It's one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!
