Great experience

We hired From Scratch catering for our wedding at The Treasury. We were lucky to have to opportunity to attend 2 tastings with From Scratch, one plated and one buffet as we were planning on a family style dinner service. We never had a single bad item at either tasting. They were extremely flexible in letting us choose from both their plated and buffet menus to make a perfect family style combination for us.
The appetizers they had were creative and delicious and were honestly some of my favorite choices we made. They made sure to have plenty of apps waiting at the head table as my husband and I were busy with photos our whole cocktail hour and I was so grateful for that!
Day of the dinner service went smoothly and the staff took special attention to make sure my husband and I had time to eat between greeting guests. Everyone raved about how amazing the food was, especially the beef. Actually, the first text I received the morning after our wedding was from one of my bridesmaids who said “I will dream of that mac and cheese for the rest of my life.”
From Scratch’s close relationship with The Treasury made our day so seamless and I’m so grateful for an amazing food experience as I know food can make or break a wedding experience.

Best staff ever!

Let’s just say, if I ever got married again, I would hire From Scratch Catering all over again! We worked closely with Jenna, who tailored everything so perfectly to us! Not a single need was missed. I was able to thank the entire staff, who are incredibly kind. The pricing is exactly what you get, actually, it’s more! We paid our price, but they still went above and beyond to match everything to our event. I don’t know what I would have done without them! I truly can’t see myself recommending any other company besides them. Also, best wedding food I have ever tasted, and I’ve been to a lot of weddings! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your excellent service!

From Scratch Will Not Dissapoint!

I am so thankful that we chose From Scratch Catering/Batch 154 for our caterer. We got married on October 3rd at The Treasury Ballroom and From Scratch/Batch 154 went above and beyond. Chef Kyle took the time to help us create a unique menu and even created a few custom items that were not illustrated on the menu. Not only was the food delicious, but the display was beautiful. We have a beautiful charcuterie display, and they added greenery and flowers to make it pop. We also chose to add their ice cream last minute, and I highly recommend to ADD THE ICE CREAM! My family is still talking about the huge topping bar and the variety of flavors. I had guests that were gluten free and dairy free and they had options for everyone. Overall, we are happy that we chose this vendor for our special day.

Great Food

We hired From Scratch Catering for our wedding and we couldn't be happier. Having attended many weddings myself in the past two years, the food was an important factor for us. The food was better than expected and the best "wedding" food we have ever tasted. Our guests are still talking about the presentation and just how good EVERYTHING was. We are happy that we chose From Scratch Catering.

Highly recommend!

We had a great experience with From Scratch! Jenna was wonderful to work with and the whole time was super accommodating to our needs. When everything was coming together at the finish line, we had several last minute requests and Jenna was available for calls/texts and made sure everything played out as we wanted. We received nice feedback from our guests that everything was delicious too! Overall super thankful to have had From Scratch as part of our day.

Delicious Food and Seamless Service!

From Scratch Catering and Event Planning made our wedding day absolutely perfect! Their planning and coordination were incredible – I didn't have to worry about a single thing on the day of, which made for a completely stress-free experience. My husband and I were able to attend two of their tastings, and we left each one feeling confident in our menu choices. And we were right to be confident! So many of our guests have raved about how amazing the meal was. We would absolutely book From Scratch Catering and Event Planning for any future catering event and highly recommend them to anyone looking for delicious food and seamless service!

Spectacular service!

I cannot stress enough how wonderful this catering service was. From the moment we spoke with them, they sent us any information we would need. We easily looked through all of our options and decided on a rough draft of a menu. We picked out a tasting date that had a majority of the foods we were interested in and when we went to the tasting it was absolutely too good to be true! They even sent us home with boxes and boxes of leftovers! Many people would say “people don’t go to weddings for the food, nor will they remember it” but i can promise you it still is one of our biggest compliments we’ve received from pretty much every guest who attended! I would highly recommend from scratch over and over again to anyone looking for a caterer!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
