Highly recommend!

My wife and I are so incredibly thankful for Festive Board for helping to make our wedding so damn perfect. The food was great but the service was even better despite it being an incredibly hot day/venue.

First the bartenders were top notch. Super friendly and always made each drink to perfection. My cocktail of choice was a Moscow Mule and it was one of the best ones I've ever had.

Secondly, the staff was always so attentive and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure our day was perfect. I wish I would've personally shaked everyone's hand because we've never felt so catered in our lives.

Lastly, our supervisor, Jennifer, was AWESOME! She made sure we had everything we needed, made sure we were perfectly fed and assisted in more ways than we could've imagined. Helping us organize our dessert table to perfection.

We were so pleased with everything that we will be frequent customers. Already looking forward to seeing familiar faces and eating their delicious food again! Wishing their team continued success!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Festive Boards — Joy & Team

Joy and the entire Festive Boards team added so much heart and care to our wedding day. From the very beginning, they treated us with genuine kindness and made us feel so supported throughout the whole planning process. On the day of the wedding, their coordination, warmth, and attention to detail were extraordinary.

The food was incredible—not only delicious but clearly made with pride and creativity. Our guests are still talking about it. But beyond the food, it was the service that made the biggest impact. Joy’s team went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, and they did it all with such a joyful and uplifting spirit.

We couldn’t be more grateful. Festive Boards helped make our wedding feel effortless, beautiful, and filled with love. We wholeheartedly recommend Joy and her team to anyone wanting a catering experience that is both exceptional and deeply caring.

Would absolutely recommend using the festive board!

The Festive Board catered our wedding this past weekend and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding caterer. The entire experience with them was spectacular. Every single person I interacted with from the Festive Board went above and beyond to provide us with the best service. They all made themselves available for any questions we had (and we had a lot) and never made us feel badly for asking. They were incredibly well organized throughout the entire process. They dealt with any changes that occurred with a great attitude. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the food on the wedding day. Everything was delicious! Their staff made sure my husband and I were catered to and didn’t have to lift a finger or take a step through the reception. Everything was set up so beautifully and packed up and stored very neatly at the end of the night. The Festive Board truly helped make our wedding magical and everything we wanted and I will never be able to recommend them enough for this!

Highly Recommend!!

We are so happy we chose The Festive Board for our wedding day! The food was great, we received many compliments from our guests! We loved that we did not have to keep track of entree choices, as each guest received the same meal, which included 2 sides and 2 proteins. Nikki and her team were absolutely amazing on wedding day! Nikki in particular was extremely attentive, checking in on the bride and groom frequently throughout the night! She ensured all of the decor for the reception was set up just the way we wanted. Everyone we came in contact with during the planning process was friendly, professional, and easy to work with! We highly recommend using them for your wedding day!!

Best catering possible!

I met Ed and his team at the Wedding Expo in Lancaster on 11.19.23. Not only did they have AMAZING food to sample but they had different drawings and information available. I was selected to receive a gift certificate and spoke w/ Ed the next day to plan a menu.

The entire consulting process couldn't have been better!! The service that Festive Board offers is second to none and completely takes the stress of catering out of your hands! As Ed said during the consultation, he and his team only need 4 things from you and that's it! They handle everything else.

Not only do they help you plan your meal but they also send you and your fiancé the meal to try! The day after speaking with Ed to plan the meal a member of his team (Dorothy) personally delivered two plates of the meal we planned for my fiancé and I to try! And let me tell you the food was AMAZING!

They also offer different payment plans to make sure that you can afford the best food and service possible for your special day.

I couldn't be more grateful for Ed and his entire team at Festive Board. I would recommend them 100%!

Amazing food and service

Festive Board Catering played a huge role in making our wedding day perfect! Not only was our food absolutely amazing, the service the staff provided was outstanding. For example, my husband and I took pictures after our ceremony while our guests were enjoying cocktail hour. The staff made sure to bring us drinks and appetizers during this time. We have attended several other events Festive Board has catered and experienced the same quality of food and service at those events. You can’t go wrong by hiring Festive Board!

Micro Wedding Catering

We hired Festive Board from a recommendation from our venue. They were incredibly kind from day one. They text me prior to finalize plans and meals. They followed through on everything and even set up my decor on the tables. We had a bartender (you provide your own alcohol) who was fantastic as well. I highly recommend them and the day of coordinator I had was Debbie and she was lovely!

Great service and food!

From start to finish, our experience with Festive Board was great. I really wanted to find a "full service" catering package and they truly provide that for an amazing price. They provide all the linens, china, food, servers, bartenders, & cleanup. I worked with Ed to create our menu and then received the main course in the mail to taste-test at home. During the final review meeting with Brigitte, I did change 1 original food choice and had no issues doing that. The day of the wedding, Dorothy was our coordinator and she was excellent. I noticed I miscommunicated and that some place settings and seats were missing prior to the start of our ceremony, and she quickly worked to make those corrections for us. Dorothy also brought me and my husband a plate of hors d'oeuvres while we took photos after the ceremony, and made sure that our drinks of choice were waiting for us at the sweetheart table when we made our grand entrance. We were served our meals first and Dorothy was so pleasant all evening. Everything was delicious! The staff also helped to breakdown the buffet and some tables to make room for the dance floor. Bartenders were professional and made sure the drinks were flowing all night. Any extra food and alcohol was packed up for us at the end of the night. Overall, an amazing vendor that I would 100% recommend.

Excellent service, food and experience

aylor and her whole crew was fantastic! She is an excellent communicator and she answered my millions of questions ahead of the big day. Her team went above and beyond with setting our our decor, preparing our specialty drinks to perfection and accommodating shifting timelines. We went with the most affordable menu and the food was excellent while being within our budget. Taylor also made sure we ate during cocktail hour and had full plates of food served directly to us at the start of our reception. All the servers and bartender were so friendly and hospitable. The best part is that my family has a new favorite deli in the area!!! We love Festive Board!!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
