Divine catering is the company to use for your wedding and large events! From the first email I sent Rob (The event manager), he always replied in a timely fashion and was extremely helpful and real with us. We met him for a tasting in the summer of 2018 and he was very welcoming and explained all the different packages they had to offer. We signed with them within 24 hours and had them booked for our big day. Not to mention that they have a TON of different menu items and you for sure will find multiple items you will want to serve. One of the main reasons we wanted to book them is they offered the food, the staff, and the bartenders at a very reasonable price. They also offer place settings and linens, so it makes it much easier when planning.
Fast forward 2 years and here we are in 2020 with covid. Due to Covid, we rescheduled our May wedding to September and had to downsize our wedding by more than half the amount of guests. Rob was AMAZING to work with as I probably sent him about 20 emails between May and September CONSTANTLY changing out numbers and our order. He never once complained and worked with us every step of the way. He let us change our order as many times as we needed to be within the covid guidelines for our wedding.
On our wedding day, the food was delicious and so many of our guests made comments. Several guests went back for seconds and thirds. The staff also checked it with our coordinator and me as the bride to make sure everything was up to our expectations and asked if there was any more they could do. They even wrapped up and let us take home the left overs.
Overall, I would recommend this company to anyone. Their communication, flexability, and quality was well worth the price and made this process of planning so smooth. I hope we get to use them again for smaller events we may host in the future!

Team of Divine Catering
Rob Lester
Sales and Events Manager
Rob has been working events his whole life. Literally. Both of Rob's parents were event planners, planning a medical conference every year in Orlando since he was a baby. He began working behind the registration desk when he was 10 helping check people in and helping his mom fill out catering requests for the various seminars.
He has since worked on and helped plan events for Nike, the hit shows "Little People Big World" and "Grimm", Mechanisms of Perfusion, and weddings of all shapes and sizes. Rob has been an employee of Divine Catering for 7 years and was Divine Catering's first full time employee.
Rob’s favorite activities include camping, fishing, watching sports and spending quality time with his wife, daughter, and their Boxer, Milo.
I have worked with the Alisa and the team over at Divine Catering for several years now. They are very easy to work with, understand the wedding industry and are able to really work with a clients flavors and styles when it comes to food and menu's.
When it comes to the day of the wedding they are always there on time, and stay until everything is taken care of. They are super easy to work with and we really enjoy working with them.
Thanks for being awesome!
