Amazing food & professional staff
I will never be able to thank them enough for all that they did! The food was so good, we have gotten numerous complements.
Laura was so helpful and responsive. I know I asked an insane amount of questions but she handled each and every question perfectly. For anyone reaching out to EKC, I would remind them to be patient with the emails as they are responding to a lot of people and coordinating a lot of details for other events.
I would pick this vendor again and again. Joe, the bartender, was amazing! Everyone loved him. The team coordinated all the rentals, which were handled perfectly. We would not change a single thing from them!
Thank you EKC! We will be singing your praises for years to come!

Early Katering Company is WONDERFUL! From the taste of the food to the presentation of the food - it's all amazing. The friendly, yet professional staff are extremely accommodating. As photographers that work several weddings a year, we always get super excited when we discover that Kay and her team were hired to cater - YUM!
Delicious food, friendly service, and beautifully arranged. The bride & groom loved that they were affordable!
