Michael's is the best!

From the moment we began planning our wedding, we knew that choosing the right caterer was essential: Michael's Event Catering not only met our expectations—they far exceeded them.

From our first conversation, Michael expertly guided us through the planning process for not just the catering, but the flow of the entire event. Michael stepped up and took the reigns becoming the central point of communication leading up to, and on the day of the wedding between the venue, band, tent company, and florist.

Michael and his team's willingness to go above and beyond truly sets them apart. Their keen eye for logistics meant that every potential hiccup was addressed before it could become an issue. His team managed their setup and takedown with such finesse that it enhanced the overall ambiance of our wedding.

The food was all impeccable and had rave reviews, the bartenders were attentive and efficient, and the raw bar and photobooth add-ons were the cherry on top.

We couldn't have pulled off the wedding (which we started planning only six months in advance) without Michael and his amazing team!

Exceeded every expectation & more

Michael’s Event Catering exceeded every expectation & more; I cannot say enough amazing things about our experience as it was flawless from start to finish!! We hired them for an outdoor birthday party this past weekend, and they absolutely knocked it out of the park.

We went with their BBQ package and appreciated how easy it was to customize. Adding a Philly cheesesteak station turned out to be one of the best decisions, as it was a huge hit with our guests! We also added their dessert and beverage stations that were gorgeous and fully stocked, down to the napkins and ice = one less thing to worry about during a busy day!

Paul was so wonderful with communication leading up to the event, always quick to respond and super organized. On the day of, Michael, Chrissy, and their whole team showed up with high energy, professionalism, and a seamless system for setup and breakdown.

Our guests could not stop talking about the food!!! All day and all night, and for days to come! The flavor, the quality, the presentation... it was all amazing. The dessert display looked straight out of a magazine, even the condiments were beautifully presented!!

We’d work with Michael’s again in a heartbeat and can’t recommend them enough to anyone planning a wedding or special event. Truly top-notch service and food. Thank you so much for making our event so unforgettable!

Far Exceeded Expectations

We cannot express how impressed we were with Michael's Event Catering. They not only catered our breakfast after our wedding ceremony but also our Cocktail Reception as well. They are professional, responsive, flexible and the food is incredible! Everyone was raving! We will definitely be using them again for other events in the future.

Best Wedding Caterer with the Most Delicious Selection of Food

We hand picked Michael's for all of our catering needs at our wedding because of the wide range of food selection that he has. We worked with Lauren and Michael up to the day of the wedding and they were nothing short of amazing to work with. They are extremely flexible and accommodating with our needs and special requests. Michael worked closely with our wedding planner and owner of the venue to figure out logistics since his large truck cannot fit the turn up to the venue. Michael was so great to work with and I've heard only the best compliments from our wedding planner and vendor team! The food was amazing, everything they served was so well made, fresh, and DELICIOUS. We had to have sushi at our wedding and they were just flying off of their trays. The specially requested lavender lemonade was just the perfect refreshment. The main course with filet mignon, grilled lamb chops, and salmon were all so so good that our guests kept going back for more! The staff were so attentive to our needs and prepared sample platters for us to enjoy from cocktail hour and reception so we did not have to go up and get our own food. They continued to check up on us throughout the night regularly. We could not have picked a better caterer for our wedding. Do not hesitate to book Michael's for your event! He is simply the best to work with and the food is always cooked to perfection. Thank you again for going above and beyond and truly giving us the best experience on our wedding day!

Amazing Food and Service

We loved working with Michael's Catering and would highly recommend them! All of our food was delicious and our service was just as good. They allowed us to put our own twists on a few things, one being using Boost (if you know, you know) in the slushie machine which was such a hit with my husband's family. They also allowed us to come by their office to get a few table cloths ahead of time since we were setting up our own center pieces and side tables. They were also so clear with their pricing which many other catering companies are not. We didn't have to waste our time waiting for someone to email us back and then find out they were out of our budget. We had clear communication throughout the whole process and we were really taken care of as the couple day of. There isn't a thing we would change about working with Michael's!

Michael's is the BEST!

After cancelling our original wedding due to Covid, we immediately contacted Michael's to cater our large backyard wedding. Michael went above and beyond during the entire planning process, from last minute rain plan changes to tiny design details. His entire staff was absolutely incredible, and our guests continue to rave about the attentiveness and professionalism of each staff member! We could not have pulled off a Covid-Plan B-backyard wedding during a tropical storm without the Michael's team! We are forever grateful!!!!

Michaels catering NAILED IT

Michaels Catering put together a beautiful backyard wedding in two months time for my husband and I, because of Covid-19. The tents, chairs, tables, and setup was so much more than we imagined. Especially the LIGHTS they helped us rent. The way they glimmered over the pool made our night especially magical. The caterers were awesome as well. They were friendly, professional, and on the ball with everything. The bartenders kept our drinks full and the servers made sure we had everything we needed. People were loving the food but most of all they were into the ice cream bar! Glenda was the main person we communicated with and she was excellent and keeping us in the loop, even with our last minute adjustments. The day could not have been more perfect, and this company was a huge part of that. If you're looking for a high-quality catering company, especially for outdoors, Michaels is the place to go!!!

Amazing!

My daughter held her wedding in our backyard after being cancelled twice due to COVID-19. Michael’s Event Catering Saved the day! From my first contact with Glenda to the professional servers, bartenders, & chefs, everything was top notch. The food was FABULOUS! Passed and plated appetizers were phenomenal! So many to choose from! (My favorite was the sausage stuffed mushrooms). We had the BBQ buffet with the most tender ribs, chicken and brisket! The Servers were so attentive and pleasant, our bartender Tim was the best! Michael’s provided all our linens, flatware, glasses, plates, mixers & garnishes! They did it all so the we could enjoy our daughter’s wedding day. We had so many comments on how wonderful everything was. If you are looking for a professional Caterer that does it all, call Michael’s Event Catering!
Thank you again for making our daughter’s wedding day a huge success!
