Overperformed!!!

PEJ was incredible to work for our wedding at Allan House in April. Starting from our very first in first interaction with Kristin, she was super helpful, answered all of our questions and built us a quote quickly. It was hard to choose appetizers at our tasting because everything was so delicious. We chose the smokehouse menu because I wanted family style and something a bit more elevated. Our guests were raving about the food! PEJ even accommodated my request for passed espresso martinis during the cake cutting. The bartenders had to contend with a little bit of a bee issue at our venue but they pushed through and made it all happen. 10/10 would recommend PEJ for your catering needs!

Great one stop shop and the food is soooo good!

I would highly recommend PEJ events if you’re looking for a one stop shop. We wanted someone with good food and could help with the setup of tables/chairs and clean-up of trash. They did not disappoint. We worked with Kristin Shrimplin and she was super responsive throughout the process. The catering staff was also very easy to work with. It rained on our wedding day and they were very flexible with the new plans. We did the BBQ buffet and everyone loved it. The brisket and ribs are sooo good! I recommend the mac n cheese shooters and burnt ends passed apps as well.

Amazing Communication & Coordination

Lori at PEJ was immensely helpful with our wedding and really guided us through a lot of options. She is professional yet personable and really saved us time and effort by connecting many of the "dots" at play. Also, everyone at our wedding raved about the food (we went with the BBQ option). I honestly wasn't expecting people to love the food that much (when do we ever really love food at the wedding?) but it was really really great. And just know, you can work with PEJ to tweak things how you need to - just give them a call and discuss!

Wonderful food & service

From the get-go, I was so impressed with PEJ. We truly got the "bang for our buck" and they were able to keep us within budget! Lori was so easy to work with and answered every question we had. When the wedding day came, they had it all set up so nicely and the way they served the buffet line - cutting the brisket and sausage on the spot - was phenomenal. Highly recommend PEJ for any event!

Incredible food & perfect service & friendly staff on our wedding day

We’re so thankful to Lori and the PEJ Events team for making our wedding day unforgettable. The food was amazing! Our guests are still talking about it! From start to finish, Lori was so easy to work with. Her guidance throughout the planning process helped us feel confident that everything was going to work out great.

The food stations were a hit and felt like the perfect choice for our crowd. Everything was beautifully presented and tasted incredible. We couldn’t have been happier and would absolutely recommend PEJ to anyone planning a celebration!

Daughter’s wedding. PEJ nailed it!

The service and quality of food were off the charts. PEJ executed flawlessly at our daughter’s wedding. Everyone raved how good the fajitas with all the fixings were. It’s difficult to serve a high quality product off site but you guys have perfected it. I highly recommend PEJ for your next event. Lori, you should be very proud of what you have and your staff. Bravo

Best service ever!

We recently hired PEJ to cater our wedding, and we could not have made a better decision! From the moment we walked in for our tasting until we closed out the celebration, their service was impeccable. The bartenders and servers were fantastic, and people raved about how great the food was. I would recommend them to all future brides!

The best bbq & service

Thank you so much PEJ Events for making sure our wedding menu was a hit! Many of our guests were so impressed with the beautiful barbecue & accoutrement that we served on our special day. Once we set up a tasting, we knew that this would be our catering choice; not only because of the amazing flavors & choices for food but also the amazing service provided to us by Kristin. She helped us all along the way before the wedding to make sure that our menu was accurate. She also made herself available to answer any lingering questions we had. She even recommended adding linens to our contract to make it easier for us! The team on the day of was also very professional & ensured that my husband & I got our fair share of appetizers along with our meals first. They even packed some plates for us to take after the wedding, which were demolished the next day! 10/10 would recommend! Thank you again PEJ.
