The best caterer for the best night of our lives!

As a couple who LOVES food, it was critical to us that we found the perfect caterer. We spent a LONG time searching for someone who offered interesting flavor combinations and ideas rather than the same, classic-but-boring staple wedding food options. We knew we had found something special when we found Ovy Signature Catering, and let me assure you, they did not just live up to our expectations - they exceeded it.

I cannot encourage you enough to at least sample what they have to offer, because it will convince you of their culinary skill and expertise. They drew upon flavors and ideas from all over the world. Everything they served was beautiful and delicious, and even though we were stuffed by the end, we could never deny ourselves another bite. Their expertise was also evident as we developed our particular menu in regards to the available facilities at our venue (the Old Post Office), as well as to our own tastes and preferences. In fact, we suggested a few options to round out our menu that they were happy to implement. By the end, we truly felt like we had developed a custom, personalized menu that fit our creativity and preferences.

Even more than the food, I cannot praise the people behind this company enough, because they were the bedrock for our amazing celebration. Ati is not only a wonderful person but incredibly thoughtful and reliable - we relied on him MANY times, for suggested wine pairings, ways to adapt the menu, and many other tasks. He also cheerfully accepted all of our last-minute requests with zero hesitation. Ovy and his team were incredible on our wedding day - they worked quickly, efficiently, and were a massive help whenever we needed assistance. And we received SO many compliments on our food from our guests, many of which said they had never had such fantastic food at a wedding before.

If you haven't been convinced that this is the right caterer for you yet, let me add a few other things that were key for our selection of this company. It was critical for us that our caterer allowed us to supply some of our own food, from my partner's home country. Ovy Signature Catering was very happy to help us serve it. We also wanted to serve our food "family-style" so that our guests could sample everything. I don't believe that every caterer allows such a thing, but Ovy Signature Catering was happy to oblige.

I hope you and your partner will do yourself a favor and try this company, because I assure you - they are the best in the business, and will exceed all of your culinary hopes and expectations.

Best food ever! Amazing communication!

Ovy, Ati, and their team were the best! Many guests said this was the best food ever at a wedding. They were on multiple venues' lists of recommended caterers, and after reaching out to 15+ for prices they were one of the cheapest, and the food options were so unique and delicious. In addition to the hors d'oeuvres and main meal, we added on a dessert table and coffee/tea and everything looked really nice. We also did a late night snack through Ovy! They were great with communication, professional, kind, and we highly recommend everyone reach out to them!

Ovy & Team Knocked It Out of the Park!

“Best wedding food I’ve ever tasted” - a common compliment still coming our way from our wedding guests even though our wedding was weeks ago. We had a few tastings before signing a caterer, and Ovy’s blew us out of the water. The attention to detail and melding of several different cultures and tastes was incomparable. While I’m sure they also knock the classics out of the park, our menu was a bit more experimental and yet still a hit with even our pickiest eaters. I have a severe allergy, and the team worked to recipe test my favorite dessert and make sure they could make it a reality for me. I think this level of extra care and thoughtfulness can only be received at more boutique caterers like Ovy. Would seriously recommend to any ‘26 and ‘27 couples!

Amazing Experience, Start to Finish

From our very first conversation with Ati, we knew we wanted them to cater our wedding. And then we had our tasting and we were absolutely blown away! Our family members we brought with still talk about all of the incredible food we ate that day. It was so hard to decide on our menu because everything was delicious. Ati and Ovy were so easy to work with. It was nice that with all of the stress that comes with planning a wedding, we knew we weren't going to have to worry about anything related to catering because they had it handled. Whenever we reached out with a question, they got back to us almost immediately. I remember sending Ati a completely not urgent email and he responded within a few minutes asking if we wanted to chat about it on the phone and we had all of our questions answered within an hour of sending that email. Everything went perfectly smooth on the wedding day. They set aside drinks and hors d'oeuvres for us during cocktail hour and everything tasted exactly like we remembered it from the initial tasting. The main courses as well- the meats were cooked perfectly and the presentation of the dishes was stunning. Again, just as we remembered it from the tasting. The staff came to check in on us many times throughout the night and even grabbed us drinks from the bar during dinner. Our guests loved the food- we heard nothing but glowing reviews after the wedding. Many of the guests were even going up to Ovy to tell him how incredible his food was. They sent us home with one of each of the main courses at the end of the night and Ati called to check in on us the day after the wedding. From the very first contact to after the wedding day and every moment in between, it was so enjoyable and stress-free working with Signature Catering by Ovy. We cannot recommend them enough.

Hands down best value in catering

Ovy’s Signature Catering was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, Ati was a joy to work with. He is energetic, communicative, and genuinely cares about creating an amazing experience. Throughout the planning process he was patient, helpful, and always made us feel like a priority. Our other vendors also talked about how wonderful he was, which let us know this is who he truly is every day, not just with clients watching.

Chef Ovy is incredible. Our tasting was not only delicious but so generous. They brought out additional dishes and elements just to be sure we were completely satisfied with what we chose. They were flexible with adjustments, and anytime we liked parts of two different dishes, they offered great solutions.

What impressed us most was the wedding day itself. The food was outstanding. We had almost 200 people, and everything tasted just as amazing as it did during the tasting. Many of our guests told us it was the best wedding food they had ever had. The entire team was professional, kind, and wonderful to have on site. Their value, service, and food are truly unmatched. We would recommend them to anyone!

Spectacular Wedding Catering with Ovy!

We decided to work with Ovy Signature for our wedding and they were nothing short of amazing. During our first meeting with Ati, we knew we wanted to move forward with Ovy Signature. We had a fantastic tasting in which we were able to taste an assortment of hors d’oeuvres, main course meals, and deserts. Everything that we ate was truly terrific, which made it even more difficult to choose what we wanted our guests to eat. The main dishes that we went with was the chicken, beef, and risotto selections which were absolutely incredible. Our guests could not stop talking about how delicious the food was and some even asked for their information so they can hire them for future events. Also, the presentation of the hors d’oeuvres and main dishes were were simply elegant. Since we aren’t huge dessert people, they were kind enough to create us a beautiful s’mores bar which was a massive hit. The staff were extremely helpful with our needs and made sure that we and all our guests were well taken care of. One of us if a huge dirty martini person, so they even special made homemade blue cheese stuffed olives for a garnish. After our wedding ceremony, we made sure to take 10 minutes to ourselves, and Ovy and his team were kind enough to bring us a plate of hors d’oeuvres to ensure we were able to enjoy a light snack before entering cocktail hour to mingle - they also remembered both of our favorite cocktails and had those prepared for us as well. All in all, we would absolutely recommend Ovy Signature to anyone who is in need of a caterer.

10000/10 amazing!!!

OSC was incredible. Multiple guests told us that it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had. The service was truly unbelievable - I cannot say enough about how much we and our guests LOVED the staff. The bartenders crushed it and there was hardly ever a line to get drinks. They provided beautiful linens and glassware that made the room look so special.The food was served exactly on schedule and very efficiently! They executed a fairly complicated room flip (and one that had never been done at the venue before) absolutely perfectly. It was wonderful to see our vision come to life.

They were the BEST to work with during the planning process - incredibly responsive, so accommodating for all of our bespoke requests, and just so nice and collaborative. Ati was very positive and gregarious. Ovy is a little more reserved but very kind and an absolute pro. The food itself was delicious and exactly like the tasting. Plating and presentation was showstopping. The shortrib mashed chive mashed potato was a perfect dish. They were also able to make a wide variety of cuisines: Mexican chicken, Indian Samosas, bruschetta. It was all so well seasoned and flavorful.

They saved extra meals for us since it was challenging for me to eat at dinner, and it was such a treat being able to come home and have such incredible food to cap off the best day of our lives. I could certainly go on about how great they were - the absolute BEST caterer in town! 100/10 would HIGHLY recommend.

Absolutely incredible food!

WOW! The sheer number of guests that came up to us during/after our wedding to compliment the food!! Working with Ovy Catering team was a dream from start to finish. At the beginning of our planning process, we met with Ati to discuss our specific vision for food and planned a tasting to select our entrees/appetizers - this helped us feel confident in the quality of food and we also had an absolute blast at the tasting! Ati worked with us every step of the way to make sure that everything went off without a hitch, and kept us feeling comfortable throughout the entire process. And truly - whatever you think when you hear 'wedding food' - throw it out the window. This was restaurant quality, amazing food! I've been dreaming about the short rib for days!

The Catering You Dream About

If you are looking for a wedding caterer, look no farther than Ovy's. They were the absolute best. SO many people came up to us afterwards and said this was the best wedding food they'd ever had. A friend texted me the other day saying she's still thinking about the vegan curry. (Vegan!!) Plus the staff went above and beyond, helping us deal with flower fiascos, fluffing out my train right before I walked down the aisle, and bonding with our guests at the bar. The fun they had made our night all the more magical. They are also a joy to work with and are a beautiful company that acts like a family. Book them if you can!!

Best Wedding Food Ever - Beyond our Expectations!

We cannot say enough amazing things about our wedding catering experience! From start to finish, the team went above and beyond our expectations! The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and had all of our guests talking—it truly elevated the entire evening. The dessert table was stunning and such a hit, and the late-night Chicago-style hotdogs were the perfect surprise touch that everyone loved. So many of our guests told us it was the best wedding food they have ever had!

Ati and Ovy were very attentive and communicative throughout the planning process and on the big day, making sure every detail was perfect. We are so grateful for their incredible service and talent. Highly recommend!!
