Kind and Transparent

HPWT was great to work with for our wedding. I worked mostly with Mindy who gave us a clear timeline for when things need to be picked out and planned and help us stay on track. She was very flexible in working within our budget and transparent on costs. We’re still getting compliments on our food, when our wedding was months ago.

Hire hpwt!

Have Party Will Travel catered our wedding and did a phenomenal job! Abby and the HPWT team was so helpful during the planning process and answered so many of our questions quickly and offered great advice. We loved the décor options and the service was top notch! We have multiple guests comment on how friendly the bartenders were. Abby was on top of all the details and reminded us of upcoming deadlines and decisions - she attended our walkthrough at the venue and made sure everything was set up and ready to go. We would highly recommend HPWT!

I wouldn't use anyone else

This is our second time using Have Party Will Travel. We first used them for our daughter's wedding. She wanted fun, different food for her reception. We struggled to get other caterers to catch the vision. HPWT got it exactly right and was half the price of some the bids we got from other caterers. So when we planned a Harry Potter party and wanted Toad in the Hole, meat pie and sticky toffee pudding, we called HPWT. Once again, they were amazing. Mindy worked with me until we got exactly what I wanted. The staff showed up on time, the serving table looked great and they were such nice people to interact with on what could have been a stressful day. Another reason I used HPWT again is that you can choose a venue that only has a sink and they will just show up with the food in their truck. I would not use anyone else.
