Spring 2024 Wedding!

Ovy Signature Catering was the best catering vendor we could have asked for. From start to finish, Ovy & Ati have been outstanding.

Having family style food served at our wedding was very important to us - plus my husband (Justin) and I wanted some different & unique foods for our wedding. We had a wonderful consultation with Ati at the beginning of the wedding planning process and we immediately knew we wanted Ovy to cater for us. We were invited to have a tasting with our friends & family and this experience put Ovy over the top; having a tasting with some of our most important friends and family, was so unique and special to us. Ati was an excellent host & Ovy whipped up some delicious dishes for us! One of their signature hors d'oeuvres was smoked eggplant w/ puff pastry, feta, cherry tomatoes & chives; I was not a fan of eggplant, but they assured me I would like this bite. Sure enough, this was one of our favorite hors d'oeuvres of the night! Absolutely delicious and our guests had never tasted anything like it - which was exactly the experience we wanted! We also had grilled cheese dippers with tomato soup - which our families have asked for the recipe. The Thai chicken skewers were also delicious.

Throughout the planning process, Ati was a pillar of support for anything we needed. Since we were interested in bringing in full bar setup, Ovy & Ati helped facilitate getting the furniture and equipment needed for the bar setup - and this ended up being such a great feature at out wedding. On the day of the wedding the catering staff played such a key roll in making sure our day played out smoothly. We had designated staff serving the head table and they made sure we had enough food, water and beverages throughout the meal and never hesitated to ask if we needed anything. We got so many compliments from our guests about how kind and thoughtful the staff were - and typically this isn't something you notice at a wedding. But with Ovy Signature Catering, they bring 5 star, world class service, and it really goes a long way 😊

For our dinner we had a caesar salad w/ grilled lettuce. Most of our guests mentioned they had never tried this, but they thought it was the most delicious caesar salad they had ever tried! Plus, we had the most delicious short rib you can imagine + potatoes au gratin that made every guest speechless + perfectly cooked salmon with a beautiful couscous salad + our favorite dish: the Thai green coconut curry (V)! This dish was our vegan dish and was the most unique part of our menu and it was definitely a crowd pleaser. It was so great to be able to offer all our guests a little taste of something we love and the vegan guests at our wedding also loved it! Ovy/Ati even offered to individually plate the course for vegan/vegetarian guests which was so thoughtful.

The dessert table was exactly what we dreamed of; something simple but tasty. The little dessert bites were the perfect cap to a beautiful menu!

From start to finish - Ovy & Ati knocked it out of the park for our wedding and we hope to have another excuse to host a party with them some day in the future! Cheers to you and the team! 🥂 👏

Absolutely Exceptional food and service!

Ovy Signature Catering is the best of the best when it comes to wedding catering! From start to finish, working with Ati, Ovy and the rest of the team was such an enjoyable and seamless process. We could tell immediately how much they care for the couples that they work with and there was no doubt in our mind we made the right decision by working with them! Upon our first meeting they took the time to get to know us, our cultural backgrounds and used the details to put together an incredible wedding tasting menu. Everything was so delicious and just an exceptional experience - our hardest choice was deciding which of their amazing dishes we were going to select for our big day!

We felt the love from the entire team through the entire process - they joined us at our venue walk-throughs at Wildman BT in West Town and worked seamlessly with the staff on site, helped us with our timeline, made last minute adjustments for us and assured us that no matter what requests we had they would do their best to deliver and they did 10 fold!

The week of the wedding Ati texted me directly to make sure we were enjoying the week, offered to take on any tasks and assured us that we were taken care of so we could sit back and enjoy - it helped to relieve so much stress and I could not be more thankful for his kindness, attentiveness and his true concern for Brett and I on such a big weekend!

When it came to the wedding day Ovy and the team provided 5 star service from start to finish - Brett and I had all our Hors d'oeuvres and a drink waiting for us right after our ceremony while the rest of our 200 guests enjoyed drinks from the incredible bartenders and 6 incredible Hors d'oeuvres through our passed cocktail hour. We have not gone a day since our wedding without someone telling us how incredible the food was! The entrees were served hot, timely and tasted even better than we had remembered it. We were even told that the presentation was like it was served at a gourmet restaurant - it truly was!

Ovy Signature Catering is the best in the game and I would recommend them over and over again to anyone throwing a wedding! Thank you to the team for being part of the best weekend of our lives!

Exceeded Expectations!

We got married in December of 2023, and we don't have enough words to express the level of professionalism, thoughtfulness and absolute DELICIOUSNESS that Ovy and his team brought to our magical day. From the beginning of our planning process to the wedding day, Ovy Catering was amazing to work with.

As two people who care deeply about food and embracing our cultures, we wanted specific dishes that reflected our families traditions. Our tasting dinner was an unforgettable experience, and we knew right away we found the right fit. Ovy and his team worked with us to create a beautiful menu that left our guests wanting more, and our wedding meals are still being spoken about amongst our friends and family to this day.

Ovy Signature Catering is more than a catering company. They truly listen to your vision, make adjustments as you wish and communicate efficiently along the way, and ensure that your wedding day is just as you envisioned. Ovy and Ati are not only two amazing vendors, they are two amazing people who care about their couples!

We would recommend them (and already have numerous times) to any couple who cares highly about the dining experience their guests receive on their special day!
