Yummy food and Great Venue - Thank you Dubsdread!

Our wedding day was a dream come true, and a huge part of that was thanks to Dubsdread Catering at 1 of their venues: Dubsdread Taproom. Peighton and the rest of the staff there gave us outstanding service and delicious food!

Choosing the breakfast buffet was one of the best decisions we made. Breakfast food is our favorite! The food was not only delicious but also beautifully presented, our guests filled up their plates. We knew we were in good hands from the very start, especially after the delightful free tasting where we eagerly devoured every dish. They boxed up meals for us to enjoy more of our wedding food later, we enjoyed eating it on our honeymoon that weekend. I can't get over the potatoes and the quiches, so good!

Peighton's kindness and professionalism throughout the entire process was the best. She guided us through every step with patience and care, giving great ideas and ensuring that every detail was tailored to our vision. The seamless coordination on our wedding day made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable.

On the big day, Dubsdread Catering's staff went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. They kept us on schedule, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the joy of the moment while they took care of the rest. They setup our wedding decor exactly as we wanted, and their dedication was evident in every aspect.

We cannot thank Dubsdread Catering enough for making our special day 100% perfect. If you're looking for a caterer who will go above and beyond to make your wedding day unforgettable, go with Dubsdread Catering!

Absolutely Thrilled!

My husband and I chose the Azalea Lodge without even seeing it in person! But, once we got there for our first visit with David Osmola, we knew that we had absolutely made the right choice. We loved the Legacy Garden as our ceremony space, and the Lodge was the perfect size for our intimate reception. Although the space can hold more, it didn't feel overwhelming for our 50 guests! The FOOD was amazing! Our guests raved about the food to us for days after the event. Dubsdread Catering and booking with the Azalea Lodge is definitely a great choice if you are considering it. David made sure that Dalton and I's needs and wants on our wedding day were taken care of - especially when the rain tried to make us have other plans! I cannot say enough good things about the level of communication that David and the Dubsdread team had with us from the months leading up to the event and even the day of. We are so happy that we went with this venue, and I would highly recommend it to anyone considering!!

Beautiful venue for your wedding

Everyone loved the venue! Bonny and the staff did an amazing job at setting up everything the way I wanted it. They also packed up and had everything ready for me to take at the end of the night. That was super helpful and appreciated. Definitely recommend this venue for the peace of mind that it will give you.

Amazing food and service

Would 100% recommend Dubstread. Delicious food and the price wasn’t so bad compared to others that had poorer quality. We also had a wonderful coordinator who helped to event set up and she was attentive to email and other communication. We sat down and had a tasting, and it was so nice. Day of the wedding we had a personal server for the sweetheart table even though we chose to do a buffet. Also, the personal server let my husband and I take home food and wrapped up the cake for us. Overall, would hire again if we needed to!

Helped make our dream wedding

From beginning to end, dubsdread was NOTHING but accommodating. I'll give my negatives first because everything else was positive. Deposits and such are all non-refundable, I noted on my account to not speak to anyone but me due to security issues and that was not honored, when you visit in person and go through the ballroom side often you'll find yourself waiting for someone to greet you. The "holding area" is small so you need to get ready elsewhere. And the bottom tier of food isn't that great, I found food quality differed everytime I ate it so I paid to upgrade.

Now to ALL of the positive. I had David as my day of coordinator and David as my day of butler. They were AMAZING. I gave David everything needed the day before to setup and it looked EXACTLY like I asked. It was raining on the day of, like, monsoon. David waited until the VERY last minute and I was able to walk down the isle that I wanted, and get married infront of the tree that I wanted, to my now husband. I did a first look with my dad and they block off everything to make sure noone sees me until the ceremony. Can I talk about my butler?! He followed me around with my mojito, and my husband's drink on a tray with apps and LITERALLY put the straw in my mouth for me. Like, he was a dream to have. The food the day of was so good, I HIGHLY recommend the salmon and the borsin stuff chicken with risotto. SO delicious. I'm glad we spent the extra. They fill your plate up huge. Even though it was buffet style it was still so formal. If I went back in time, I'd still pick this venue. The drinks were amazing. The bartender apparently did a amazing job, my family loved it. Thank you dubsdread for making our day special and our dreams come true. Please pick this venue, i don't know how I would have done it without them.

Amazing venue and Catering!

Everything was perfect! The venue is beautiful, the staff is great, and the food is amazing. Our coordinator Emma was awesome, she kept everything together perfectly and made everything completely stress free. Our butler, Juan was very attentive and even escorted us via golf cart while getting photos. We were even offered a tasting so we could choose our menu. We highly recommend Dubsdread and Azalea Lodge!!!

McGuigan Wedding 12/11/21

Emma went above and beyond to make our big day special, and as a wedding day-of coordinator, Emma was the best, and we couldn’t have imagined having anyone else. She was responsive, helpful, knowledgeable, and organized. Not to mention how much fun it was working with her for months to make our wedding perfect. Emma coordinated everything in multiple meetings, the rehearsal, our ceremony, and the entire reception in coordination with the rest of our vendors, and we had no worry the whole time.

Dubsdread Catering’s staff was also amazing, and extremely attentive and courteous to guests, and their food was outstanding. There wasn’t one guest that didn’t tell us this food was the best they’ve ever had at a wedding. From our cocktail hour appetizers to our buffet-style dinner with what seemed like unlimited choices, everything was delicious. And the late-night snack fried Oreos were a huge hit and disappeared quickly.

Jordan was the best!

Jordan was everything and more! He was our personal butler and exceeded any and all expectations! My MOH, fell sick that day and he was there and helpful to her needs. Thank you for making our day great! Our day of coordinator Michelle was also amazing. There was only a minor hiccup but overall it is a great place to get married. The venue is beautiful if you have a winter wedding you have fresh garland and Christmas trees that can intertwine with your decor. It was really beautiful.

Exceptional Coordinator Bonny

Bonny was such an amazing coordinator! My now
wife and I had the pleasure of working with her for
our wedding at Dubsdread Catering at the
Highland Manor in Apopka, FL. Bonny was very
attentive, had everything we needed, Bobby pins
for fall outs, bandaids, anything that you could
think of! Bonny helped our wedding day go
completely flawless. We couldn't have asked for a
better coordinator than Bonny. Thank you so so so
so much, Bonny you are and were more than
appreciated and we cannot wait to share our
wedding day photos with you!
Thank you again!
