Putting on the Ritz/Bobby Mitchell and his team were absolutely fabulous to work with. They were extremely flexible and accomodating, especially with our last minute changes. Putting on the Ritz food is phenominal! Our guests were so impressed and couldn't say enough about the food and service provided. I highly recommend the station style buffet we had. You won't be disappointed!

We were absolutely blown away by the food and the service! We have received so many compliments on every aspect – the passed appetizers, the meal, and the attentiveness of the staff. Multiple guests have commented that it’s the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding! Thank you so much for all of your help and patience through the planning process – we can’t thank you enough!

We worked directly with Neil who was great from start to finish! He responded immediately to emails and accommodated our work schedules for meetings as necessary! As for the day of the wedding the staff was exceptional and the food was superb. Our guests are still talking about it. I can't thank Putting on the Ritz enough for their expertise in making our wedding a night to remember!

Putting on the Ritz is a fabulous caterer as I've worked with them at many venues here in the MD, VA, DC area. Their staff is always courteous and the food and display of their offerings are excellent. Personally, I hired them for our daughter's wedding and am so happy with that decision. I can easily recommend Putting on the Ritz Catering for my clients.

Putting on the Ritz Catering is a pleasure to work with. From the great customer service to the close out of the event I have 100% enjoyed working with the staff at Putting on the Ritz. I would highly recommend the catering service from POTR. Toni Taylor c/o EverMoreEvents II

As wedding photographers, we always breathe a sigh of relief when someone says they're using Putting on the Ritz. We know that the night will go super smooth for the bride & groom and their guests, and for us! Putting on the Ritz is an amazing vendor to work with; their staff is always smiling and accommodating. I can honestly say that I've never seen a staff so devoted to working WITH the other vendors. They always make sure we're taken care of and go the extra mile to avoid getting caught in our photos. They are amazing. In fact, we've hired them for events we hosted, including Rob's 20th high school reunion a few years back, so we can say as vendors AND as customers, they are top notch and we would recommend them to anyone and everyone who is in need of a 5 star caterer!
