The best people and the best food!

I adored all of my wedding vendors but I think PIGS was the best of them all. My husband is from North Carolina so we wanted a little Southern flair at our reception, and with PIGS we found such a perfect mix of Southern and MD crab, and relaxed yet elevated. Our guests are still talking about how much they loved the food. And Jimmy took such good care of me and my husband all night long -- setting apps and drinks out for us as soon as the ceremony was over, bringing full plates of what we wanted over to us so we didn't have to go to the buffet, and keeping our drinks full -- that we never had to worry about a thing! Lisa, Jimmy & the rest of the team --- we cannot thank you guys enough for making our wedding what it was!!

Above and Beyond Service

P.I.G.S. Catering was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. They arrived ready to work and got set up quickly and efficiently. The very first thing our coordinator said to us when we arrived was that the P.I.G.S. team was phenomenal. The food and bartending service were amazing, and the team was incredibly responsive to the flow of the evening. We had told our wedding party to make a plate of appetizers for us while we were taking family photos after the ceremony, but when we arrived at our sweetheart table, P.I.G.S. had already prepared plates for us. It was those thoughtful little details that truly made our night feel magical. Cleanup at the end of the night was just as smooth and efficient. We highly recommend P.I.G.S. Catering to anyone planning an event.

Amazing Catering Team!

We couldn’t have asked for a better catering team for our wedding day! From start to finish, they were incredibly professional, organized, and attentive to every detail. Lisa communicated very well and was incredibly helpful during the planning process. She was always willing to answer any of my questions! A very special shout-out to our event captain, Pedro, who was absolutely amazing. He was so kind, hardworking, and professional, always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed!

The food was absolutely delicious — beautifully presented, full of flavor, and served in generous portions that left everyone more than satisfied. Many of our guests went out of their way to tell us how much they enjoyed the meal and how impressed they were with the service. The hors d'oeuvres also did not disappoint, there were MANY options that PIGs has to choose from and the ones we chose were absolutely delicious!

It was clear that the team truly loves what they do and takes great pride in making each event special. We’re so grateful for their hard work, warmth, and excellence — they helped make our day unforgettable. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch catering with a personal touch!

We loved PIGS

We absolutely loved having PIGS for our wedding! The food was delicious, and everyone had full plates and smiling faces. We heard many people complimenting the food choices. We also loved the service day of. Pedro was our point person day of, and he checked in with us multiple times throughout the day to make sure we had everything we needed. Overall, the staff was great and really knew what they were doing. They were able to get almost 100 people through a buffet line in a quick and organized way!

Great food and wonderful staff

We are so happy P.I.G.S. was our caterer for our daughter's wedding. Our guests are still talking about the delicious, moist and tasty food! There was plenty to satisfy everyone's tastes. Our leftovers are as delicious and fresh tasting as they were the day they served them. Having tasted the food at the restaurant before choosing P.I.G.S. we knew it was good, but somehow it tasted even better catered. The passed appetizers were plentiful, delicious and gracefully served. Our buffet line was fresh, clean and kept full of food at just the right temperature. We can't say enough about how good the food was! It was perfect!

Unbelievably, while the food exceeded our expectations in everyway, it was the staff that P.I.G.S. brought to our home that made all the difference to the event. The team was led by Escarlette who was quick to take in the whole event, see my vision and execute details that no one in the family thought about. Not only was she efficient with the work that needed done for all our guest, but she was so sweet and added unexpected and thoughtful details in caring for the newlyweds. If she or or team saw something that needed to be done, it got done. Her leadership and demeanor created a sense of calm that I needed. I wish I had captured the name of all the staff members as each deserves to be mentioned by name. They were willing to pitch in, never distracted and had their heads up looking for ways to help.

I found the price for the food and staffing to be fair. They were in the mid-point of the estimates we received. Based on the service level, I feel it was a great value.

Wonderful and unique catering for our May 2025 wedding.

We used PIGS for our wedding catering in May 2025 and were extremely pleased with our experience. We were given the opportunity to do a free tasting ahead of time to try out foods and determine which options to finalize as part of our contract and ensure we were happy with our menu selections (the smoked chicken was our absolute favorite!). Lisa was responsive and thorough in her communications with us throughout the booking process and in the weeks leading up to the event, and was flexible for changes in our menu and timing at the last minute. Service at the event was smooth and the food was excellent – we’ve been to plenty of weddings with unsatisfying portions and this was very much not the case with PIGS! We opted to go with family-style service, which the PIGS staff carried out seamlessly. We did both passed appetizers and the awesome charcuterie platter and recommend both options to couples. Would highly recommend PIGS for catering large events!

Wedding Review

Lisa at PIGS was so easy to work with! She quickly responded to any e-mail. The day of the wedding, all staff were professional. We had so many compliments not only on the quality of food at the wedding, but also the service of the PIGS staff.

The best caterers!

I cannot recommend PIGS BBQ enough for catering your event, or even just having a meal at their restaurant! They catered our wedding at shadow creek and everybody raved about how incredible their food was. Their service was also top notch and they were so responsive throughout the entire process. I'm so happy we chose them for our wedding and can't wait to go back and enjoy more of their food soon!

Delicious!

P.I.G.S. exceeded our expectations for our wedding catering! The food was exceptional—I'm still raving about the brisket. The team went above and beyond, helping with setup and cleanup, which took so much stress off us. The staff was not only friendly but also incredibly professional. Booking and customizing our services was a breeze, thanks to Lisa's kindness and flexibility. If you're looking for a caterer, look no further—P.I.G.S. is the perfect choice!
