Loken/Smith wedding- 10/08/2023

I don't even know where to begin. For starters, the new company name is Hurley Catering. Carlyn was such a gem. We honestly didn't know if she was even real because of how sweet and accommodating she was. We went for a tasting and absolutely fell in love with the food and her staff. She was the ONLY tasting we had or needed before deciding to go with her. She really, really worked within our budget. She was very honest about what we could do through other avenues to save money where we could. She adjusted so many invoices before adding/taking away of things was finalized. There aren't enough good things to say about her. The food was PHENOMENAL!! I had so many guests coming up to during and after the wedding to tell us the food was some of, if not, the best wedding food they've ever had. We had the flank steak and panko crusted chicken with a parmesan sauce. If you need a caterer for your wedding, you won't regret picking them!

Delicious!!

LKN Wedding & Events catering is absolutely fantastic, we not only hired them for our plated dinner at our reception but also for our rehearsal dinner. Their food is so delicious, flavorful and filling that they are worth every bit that they cost! The flexibility and options that they offer is amazing. We were able to offer coffee and cookies to be served from them, when we served our cake, which is something I am still getting lots of compliments about. The variety of drinks helped greatly because I have diabetics in my family so to have the option of unsweet tea at no additional helped keep my mind at ease. The selection that they offer is wonderful as we were able to offer a vegetarian meal for multiple family/friends who were in attendance. We have received and still continue to receive so many compliments about the food that was served, as to how delicious and filling it was and that no one left hungry.
We chose the seated/plated meal option, which yes is the more expensive option, yet well worth it, but they of course have other options available to chose from which is just as fabulous. Please do not overlook this company for any type of occasion, they will make sure all goes absolutely perfect for you and any occasion that you hire them for!

Delicious, professional servers, absolutely worth it!

LKN Catering is amazing. We had our tasting with them in January 2021for our May 15th, 2021 wedding, and it was delicious! We knew right away we wanted to move forward with them. At the tasting they brought out a few items from each part of their menu to give you an idea and nothing disappointed. The servers were extremely professional as well. The hostess answered any and all questions we had about the day of (when is the food made? how's it transported? what's the most popular items? Can we sub a side for a 2nd entree?) and provided a paper we could use to jot down the items we liked for reference.
When the wedding came, everything was still as delicious as the day of the tasting (we did buffet style). Literally multiple guests came up to us during and after the wedding complimenting the food. Fortunately my husband and I had our planner and the venue coordinator keeping us fed the entire time too so I can vouch that it was just so good. Get the caprese skewers and the spinach & artichoke phyllo cups as apps! My personal favorites.

Beautiful and delicious

All of the staff we worked with were amazingly friendly and helpful. They did everything to make our day as beautiful as we imagined. Everyone we met with LKN was truly invested in making sure we had the best day ever. While we greeted our guests and took pictures they made sure we actually got HOT food and appetizers brought to us so that we wouldn't miss out on the deliciousness while we were being good hosts.

Amazing local company

We used LKN Catering because it was the preferred catering company at our venue. Their food is so delicious. The owner Carlyn is such a sweet person to work with. The tasting sold us. She had an amazing flow to the order which she brought food out to us (my husband, sister and I went to taste). She was so kind to my nephews who also came to the tasting offering them cookies and drinks. Guests were raving over how delicious the food was we decided on a tenderloin carving station, pesto chicken, mashed potatoes, and a pasta station (comes with alfredo and marinara).

Above and beyond service!

LKN was such a pleasure to work with! We went in for a taste test and knew we wanted to work with them. Ms. Patti is so sweet and they are so accommodating!
On wedding day they made their set up look so amazing! We did the pasta bar, and everything was so delicious! Everyone was very pleased with the food and the service. They went above and beyond to make all of us happy.
Bonus: The power was out at our venue and we weren’t sure when it would turn back on. One of the LKN staff members (Will find out his name) went out of his way to go and get a generator which literally saved our whole day. Without it we wouldn’t have had music or lights. We will forever be grateful to them!
