Wedding Catering

Hannah was an absolute pleasure to work with and she answered every single one of my questions, no matter how small! I also appreciated her flexibility as we changed our menu a couple times. On the day of, herself and her team made everything easy and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. They even setup the donuts I had delivered from a local shop! The food was delicious and our guests raved about the chicken and waffles - no surprise!

Bonus points to Hannah for remembering that I mentioned my husband inquired about if there would be hot sauce for the bbq. Hannah hand delivered a bottle of hot sauce directly to us!

Thank you Nana’s Porch! We will definitely recommend you to our friends and family!

Amazing food, great service!

Nanas Porch definitely was a great addition to my magical night! Hannah was so responsive throughout the whole process answering my every silly question. Day out of we had no issues, everything went flawlessly. Food was absolutely delicious. My top faves was the chicken breast, green beans and mashed potatoes. I definitely got to eat at my wedding!

Cater through Nana's Porch if You Want to WOW Your Guests

I literally cannot say enough wonderful things about Nana's Porch. First, their food is delicious! Its creative and full of flavor and the portions are not lacking! My friends and family at my wedding are still raving about the food and how great it was! Second, the service was top notch! Hannah was so responsive and communicative. I never felt confused or out of the loop and the day of service was so fun and friendly! We reserved the food truck which was so fun and our guests really enjoyed talking to the Nana's Porch crew! Finally, you get your band for your buck! The most stressful part of wedding planning was finding a caterer that had great food and didn't burn through your wallet. I felt like Nana's Porch's pricing was fair and do-able for even low budget wedding's. All in all, I am deeply grateful to Nana's Porch and their awesome team for making wedding planning easier and adding such great value to our day. Will forever recommend them to all my friends getting married!
