Amazing delicious wedding catering

When we had to reschedule our May 2020 wedding to May 2021 we also had to change caterers. This was a scary thought. At the recommendation of our wedding planner, we decided to call Mitchell- Casteel. We spoke with David Casteel who set our mind at ease immediately. From the first time we met him at the delicious tasting we were hooked. He is a true professional and master at what he does. From the tasting to the wedding cocktail hour to the reception the food was top notch. They even made a Myer’s rum carrot cake as the groom’s cake at the rehearsal dinner. It was to die for! Having to change caterers turned out to be a blessing in disguise. We are forever grateful to have made a friend in David. He & his team are a dream team. Thank you for helping make our fairy tale wedding a dream come true. We look forward to working with you for future events.

After working with David for my wedding, I am convinced that he is not just the most talented caterer/planner in Raleigh, but certainly one of the absolute best you can find anywhere in the country. He is hands on, has an incredible depth of knowledge, is constantly evolving and has flawless taste. Being a bit of a perfectionist, it was a great relief to find someone whose opinion and work I trusted 100%. Working with David and Mark and the rest of the Mitchell's Catering team was my favorite part of the wedding. The only problem is that now I don't get to see him every couple of weeks!
