Highly recommend!!

Highly recommend Cutting Edge! We had our wedding catered by them, and Jeremy and Jessica were amazing to work with. Our reception venue unfortunately cancelled on us within ~3 months of the wedding and when updating Jeremy & Jessica to let them know that the reception venue would be changing, without us asking, they immediately began reaching out to venues to help us out which was so unexpected and greatly appreciated.

We attended a tasting which was very well-organized and made our selections for both the cocktail hour and dinner. We have guests still raving about the food months later! For cocktail hour, we selected the grilled cheese bites with tomato soup, beef wellington bites (this was especially a big hit), and bruschetta. For dinner, we had the ricotta, herb, & spinach ravioli as a vegetarian option, salmon with a lemon dill beurre blanc sauce, and filet mignon with garlic butter. We also had some guests who were vegan or had allergies and Cutting Edge was able to work with us to accommodate them easily. The sides and starter salad were delicious as well - highly recommend the whipped potatoes as one of your sides!

Beyond the food being great, working with the Cutting Edge Catering team was wonderful. Jeremy and Jessica went above and beyond and made us feel like we were taken care of every step of the way. Thank you again!!

Best Wedding Catering in LA!

Choosing Cutting Edge Catering Services for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made, and selecting their Platinum Package made the experience even better. From the moment we began working with Jessica, we felt supported and well cared for. She was warm, approachable, and incredibly thorough in explaining everything included in the package. She answered all our questions with patience and helped us tailor the options to exactly what we wanted. Her kindness and responsiveness gave us so much peace of mind during the planning process.
On the wedding day, the Platinum Package exceeded our expectations. The food was flavorful, beautifully plated, and truly memorable. Our guests loved every dish, and many of them went out of their way to tell us how impressed they were with the dinner. It added such a special touch to the evening and really contributed to the joy of the celebration.
The service was excellent as well. The staff was respectful, attentive, and incredibly organized. They kept everything moving at the perfect pace and made sure we were taken care of throughout the night. It was clear that they were experienced and genuinely committed to making the evening run smoothly. We were able to relax and enjoy every moment knowing they had everything under control.
We are extremely grateful for the wonderful experience Jessica and the entire team provided. The Platinum Package was worth every bit of it, and the service we received made our wedding feel complete. For any couple looking for reliable, delicious, and beautifully executed catering, we highly recommend Cutting Edge Catering Services. They truly helped make our day unforgettable.

Excellent catering experience

My wife and I worked with Cutting Edge Catering for our wedding in March, 2025. From the moment we first exchanged emails, Jessica and her team delivered outstanding service. Her team was extremely communicative, worked diligently within our budget to build out a menu of delicious food that catered for all our dietary requirements.
Jessica was very helpful in arranging a taste testing for us and we knew very quickly that we had made the right choice. Our waiter took time to explain each course, he was friendly and attentive, and worked effortlessly to address our questions and feedback. The high level or service culminated when the chef came out and met with us, answering more of our questions in an engaged and personable way.
CEC offered competitive pricing that didn't mean a compromise on the food decisions. They source great quality produce as well that that left us inundated with positive messages from our guests about how delicious all of the food was.
On our wedding day, the staff were organized and the flow of service was smooth. Extra care was taken to ensure that my wife and I were catered for, with the staff ensuring we didn't have to think about anything. We also received many compliments on how well the service was the day of our wedding.
We would love to thank Jessica and her team for contributing so warmly to our wonderful day and we would recommend Cutting Edge Catering to any couple looking for great food and excellent service.

Delicious Catering with Great Customer Service

We used Cutting Edge Catering for our wedding in October 2024 and had an excellent experience! Jessica, Angel, and Jeremy were extraordinarily helpful in every regard, from sending multiple quote options; making adjustments as we tweaked our menu; and generally being responsive to any questions we had. Our guests really enjoyed the food-- especially the spinach artichoke dip (which we knew would be a hit, having tried it at our tasting months prior)! I would absolutely use Cutting Edge Catering again!

Thank you, Cutting Edge!

We cannot say enough great things about Cutting Edge and are so thankful we hired them as our wedding caterer. They were listed as a "preferred vendor" at our venue and, after an intro phone call with Jessica, my husband and I quickly knew they were the team we wanted to go with. She was so helpful from the start, answering all of our questions, and made us feel really comfortable with the services and flexibility they offered. On top of that, their prices are incredibly reasonable.

Throughout the coming months, Jessica, Jeremy, and Angel were great about communicating with us. The tasting was one of our favorite memories from being engaged - such a fun experience (in the most gorgeous venue!) and we were all completely blown away by the food. The hardest part was narrowing down what we wanted to include on our menu...

Fast forward to the wedding, where the entire staff knocked it out of the park. Our guests raved about the food, service, and presentation, and it was such a relief to know the Cutting Edge team had everything taken care of. One guest even told us they mistakenly assumed a waiter was on our wedding planner's team because he was just that helpful and knowledgeable! Talk about someone going above and beyond at their job.

It's very clear that Cutting Edge cares about its clients and will do whatever they can to make your "catering dreams" come true. We're so grateful to the entire team and hope we have a chance to work with them again in the future. Thank you, Cutting Edge, for all you did to make our wedding day amazing!

Excellent!

Cutting edge CAME THROUGH!!!! I am so happy that my husband and I booked them for our wedding. Jessica was the one I was in communication with the most and she really made it so easy for me by answering every little question I had. Her responses were always so fast! Up to the day of my wedding jessica made me feel at ease with all of the efficient emails she had been sending me that when the day of the wedding came I felt 100 percent confident that they would perfect the day! My guest were raving about how amazing the food and drinks were and everyone loved Cameron the bartender because of his professional and friendly service. He was not shy with the drinks he was making for my guest! We are so happy with the service from cutting edge and will most definitely book with them again in the future!

Amazing caterer!

Truly had an amazing experience with Cutting Edge! Got married a few weeks ago and the attention to detail, service, and food was absolutely fantastic. Their staff is quick in regards to communication and service. Sugar especially was a hit amongst our guests and had such amazing positivity throughout the evening. The tasting was more food than we could've ever imagined and we left feeling happy and excited for the menu that we had selected. The appetizers were an absolute hit with guests during our cocktail hour and I will forever remember the insanely good tomato soup shooters and grilled cheese. Highly reccommend this company! They will work with you on price and make everything you want and need happen. xx

Amazing Food + Amazing Service A+++

Jeremy, Angel, and the whole team were such a joy to work with! They were so flexible, willing to accommodate each and every request to make our wedding day the BEST. Guests continue to rave about the quality of the food (from the incredible passed apps at cocktail hour to the steaks, chicken, and halibut dinner, to the desserts and late night bites) -- all perfect and WAY exceeded expectations. We've already recommended Cutting Edge to all our friends and hope to work with the team again soon!

Guests were raving about the food!

TL;DR: HIRE THEM. The team at Cutting Edge did a fantastic job with our wedding in April 2022! We heard over and over from our guests how much they loved the food at the wedding, and we were impressed with the service from the booking through the actual event. We also loved how cost-effective and complete their offerings were!
FOOD
We did the appetizer package and served a variety of hot and cold appetizers for dinner and cocktail hour. This was absolutely enough food for our guests to be a solid dinner. The spring rolls and chicken sliders were the standouts! We wanted our guests to mix and mingle throughout the event, and the food setup worked perfectly. The service was fantastic, really top-notch, and we never ran out of food but also didn't have too much left over! Food was one of our top priorities for the wedding, and we were really blown away by how good it was.
EXTRAS
We LOVED that we could add do bar services, linens, cutlery, and other rentals through Cutting Edge. It made everything so convenient and again, was more cost effective than many other options we looked at. I liked how I could customize things like using glass and metal plates/cutlery instead of using paper for a small charge. I was really impressed that the linens were in great shape and were set by the time I requested the day of the event. I can't recommend enough getting as many rentals as you can through Cutting Edge.
PLANNING/SERVICE
Response time was always fast, especially in the month leading up to the wedding (less than 24 hours). They had an answer and solution to every question, from dealing with allergies to dispensers for signature drinks. Even the small things were covered, like the team agreeing not to be working in the background of our ceremony! There were multiple opportunities for tastings, as well.

They went above and beyond

Cutting Edge catered my daughter's wedding last Saturday and helped us with a backyard BBQ for a smaller crowd the next day. Their staff went above and beyond to make both events wonderful, organized, and stress-free for us. I got to focus on being Mother-of-the-Bride and the hostess instead of spending all of my time in the kitchen. And, best of all, everything was delicious! I would highly recommend them for your next event.
