    Absolutely Amazing

    Premiere Catering was not only one of the most professional companies I have ever worked with, they were just the nicest people as well! From start to finish they were there for all of our questions and concerns and they put us at ease. I seriously felt like a VIP every time we went in to talk to them. When our 150 person guest count wedding went down to just 20 people they were ready to do what ever we needed to still have the wedding of our dreams which still included the best food! The food was just as extraordinary as their professionalism. I looked around as everyone was eating and I knew that we had picked the right people! Nothing but satisfied faces. I cannot express enough how much you will love Premiere!

    Don't hesitate - hire them!

    We worked with Premiere for our wedding day catering and it was the best decision! John and the team were amazing from start to finish. They were very responsive and answered all of my questions up front, they worked with us on a menu that fit what we envisioned for our day, and they were professional and kind the day of. So many of our guests gave us compliments on the food! People couldn't stop talking about it!
    You won't regret hiring Premiere and if they are available for your event book them now!

As a wedding venue, we have numerous caterers pass through our doors. Premier Catering is by far our favorite. Their professionalism and attention to detail is unparalleled in the industry. The food they serve is truly amazing from the delectable hour'derves and main course, including vegetarian and gluten free options, to the spectacular array of deserts. However, it is their top of the line service that makes them stand out. Whatever event you are considering them for, we highly recommend Premier Catering.
