Excellent Food and Service

Rettew's was wonderful to work with. They were flexible with our menu and executed our requested adjustments from our tasting perfectly. They also took great care of us on our big day. Would happily recommend to any couples for their wedding catering.

Amazing to work with; Delicious food & desserts

We had Rettew's cater our wedding. Everything was fantastic. The food was delicious. The presentation, plate settings, & linens were all very nice looking. The dessert table was a huge hit. Thank you to Kim Loose for her professionalism and being so easy to work with. We had several last minute changes and they were able to accommodate without issue.

Must book caterer!!

From the very beginning, Rettew's was perfect. Amanda, our sales manager, was a pleasure to work with. She was always quick to answer our questions and helped us with everything we needed for our wedding. We used Rettew's for our food, desserts, and bartenders, as well as linens, plates, and silverware, all of which have plenty of options to choose from. It was so convenient to have to just deal with one vendor for it all. They worked with us to ensure our menu was exactly what we wanted. We received so many compliments on the food, with many guests saying it was the best wedding food they'd ever had—and we couldn’t agree more. We are still getting texts from our friends talking about the food. The bartenders provided all the mixers, ice, and glassware; all we had to provide was the alcohol. They were friendly and efficient, and I never saw the line get too long.

We also want to give a special shoutout to Jason, the catering manager on the day of our wedding. Every married couple we have talked to told us to make sure we actually eat during the night. We didn’t have to worry about that for a second. As soon as we entered the cocktail hour, Jason approached us asking what we wanted to drink, and within a minute we had drinks and appetizers just for us. He made sure we had appetizers at our family kings table, knowing we would likely be too busy talking to guests to try them ourselves. Throughout the night, he (and the rest of the staff) checked in on our entire table to make sure everything was running smoothly. My mom’s favorite story to tell is how before she could even stand up from her chair to go to the bar, Jason was already setting down a new drink for her and my MIL.

We loved everything about Rettew's and highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding.

Highly Recommend Rettew's Catering!

Rettew's was our caterer for our wedding. The food was wonderful quality and the team was professional and kind. Amanda on the team was especially attentive and caring during the entire process from beginning to end! Additionally, we had a wonderful experience during our food tasting. It was a private tasting and was so fun to try everything that we had on our menu! The team was super flexible with changing the menu as needed. I highly recommend Rettew's Catering!

Wedding for 200+

We had a wonderful experience using Rettew's Catering. The food was outstanding. This was an off site location with no kitchen and they delivered 200+ sit down meals of filet, chicken and vegetarian options. Our guest remarked that "it was the best wedding food they have ever had." The staff was also wonderful to work with and Amanda great with communication and details!

Top notch service & food

Rettew's Catering did a phenomenal job for my daughter's wedding. From start to finish, they were so easy to work with and offered a lot of different options. You would NEVER know that the venue did not have a kitchen on site. The food was hot and delicious. I had several guests go out of the way to compliment the food. On top of that, the service was top notch. They were on top of every detail every step of the way. Highly recommend!

Incredible

Rettews was one of the best vendor decisions we made for our winter wedding. We wanted a cozy, home-cooked meal vibe and oh my gosh they delivered! They worked with us to customize some special stations like a soup and grilled cheese bar, a hot cocoa bar, and a smores station! Everything was amazing, we even had some guests tell us it was the best wedding food they had ever had! I so wish I could go back in time and eat more of everything (advice to future brides out there...make sure you give yourself time to eat!). I can't recommend Rettews enough, absolutely 10/10.

Outstanding! 10/10 Recommend

Rettew's was incredible and everything we could've hoped for in our caterer. They were very accommodating and transparent leading up to the day. We had a few ethnic options that we wanted to incorporate, and they pulled it off flawlessly! We also had a few specialty drinks that we did, and people still rave about them to me to this day! Very affordable especially considering we had a wedding with 170 guests. And the menu they put together was very creative and perfect for the vibe of what we were going for. Not to mention the food was awesome! I was always worried about the food part of the wedding as that can tend to be the most memorable, good or bad. We were blessed to be left with the memory Rettew's provided and hope to be able to work with them again in the future!

Rettew's is the best!

Choosing Rettew's for our wedding was the best decision. From the start, communication was excellent. When we had our tasting, everything was so good! We had full confidence they would have high quality, flavorful food, and they definitely delivered. Their food options are extensive and they are priced fairly. Our guests are still raving about how good the food was! They were extremely helpful, especially when it came to my millions of questions and changes, and they took care of everything - even gave us extra meals at the end of the night and packed our cake up perfectly for us to freeze and save. We highly recommend choosing Rettew's for all your catering needs. They are amazing at what they do and it shows!

She was responsive, flexible and made our dream come alive . Highly recommend !
