Serendipity Catering was amazing! The food at our daughter’s wedding was superb and the wait staff went above and beyond to make the reception run smoothly. We received so many wonderful comments on the food The staff was extremely helpful and professional. I would recommend Serendipity Catering for all catering needs! They are top notch!!!!

This was the catering company that came with Great Marsh Estate, so I can't say we had a lot of choice in who our caterer would be but they still went above and beyond. The staff here was incredible and the food and service both went beyond our expectations.

Our wedding planner recommended Serendipity right out of our wedding planning gate as a “one and done” recommendation for catering, and boy was she right!
Serendipity made planning our food, bar, and table settings/decor so simple and fun! We had the best time at our tasting at their Great Marsh estate (their home base and own linked venue), where they had not only the dishes we had interested prepared but also had pulled the table cloth and table settings we were interested in too. We had the most generous tasting and then got to play around with making up a table setting and then somehow all in one day we had the menu and table settings from table cloth to fork and knife all picked out and planned. It was incredible to not have to rely on separate vendors for all of that.
And for the amazing convenience, no element lacked in quality at all! The food was all absolutely delicious!! We wish they had a restaurant so we could go back and eat it anytime! And they were so flexible and creative with us to make our vision a reality! When we liked the flavor of one dish and the meat cut of another, they even custom designed one of our main dishes incorporating those elements, checking with the chef right then and there to make sure it would work well.
We were looking for a Salvadorean-American fusion, and boy they delivered! They knew how to execute Salvadorean food culture SO well, custom making a plantain fritter hors d'oeuvre for us and also proposing a pupusa stand for a late night snack…. And those were the best and most fresh pupusas we’ve ever had in the US! Wow.
They executed complex custom cocktails for us with no problem, even including edible flowers at our request. We went with their cake services too, wanting a no-frills cake- and their flavors were incredible (get the almond buttercream!) and even the look of our cutting cake was just lovely with some delicate detail.
Service the day of was seamless and the food was just as delicious as the tasting. They even boxed up leftovers for us to enjoy the next day which we were so happy to enjoy (because eating the day of really does just fly by)!
I could keep gushing. Book Serendipity’s catering, no hesitation.

Serendipity catered both our wedding at The Refinery and our rehearsal dinner at Seven on Davis in Culpeper, VA. From the very beginning, their team was clear, organized, and professional, which made the planning process seamless.

For our reception, we selected the short ribs, harvest chicken, and a vegan pasta dish. Each entrée was excellent — beautifully plated, flavorful, and well received by all of our guests. The catering team also handled our unique reception layout with ease and flexibility, ensuring service ran smoothly throughout the evening.

We appreciated Serendipity’s attention to detail and commitment to quality at every stage. Their professionalism and execution helped make our wedding weekend truly memorable. Highly recommend.

I would absolutely recommend this catering company for your wedding. Although they are a bit more on the pricey side, their food and service are excellent. Our wedding guests could not stop raving about the food (especially their bread and butter). They constantly made sure my husband and I were well fed throughout the night and were very easy to work with.

We had our wedding catered by Serendipity and we could not be any happier with the quality of the food and the spectacular Serendipity team. We wanted to have Korean/Chinese inspired cuisine, so the Serendipity staff was more than accommodating in our request to customize our menu. They nailed the vision we had for appetizers and dinner and we received many compliments on the food from our guests. It made a world of a difference to have an accessible, patient, and hard working staff - it really showed not only in our planning process as we curated and tasted our menu, but also the incredible execution on the wedding day. Special shout out to Amanda, Jessica, and Krystal!!

In April 2025, Serendipity Catering & Design catered my daughter’s wedding reception at Rixey Manor, Rixeyville, WA. Working across three different time zones – my daughter stationed in Italy and then Japan, myself in San Diego, and the wedding in Rixeyville, VA- Serendipity came through will professional etiquette, style and efficiency. We relied on some bridesmaids to complete the menu testing, and Serendipity accommodated their work schedules. They offered a good selection of appetizers, side dishes and main entrees, in addition to catering to food allergies. And when the catering staff set up at Rixey Manor, there was 100% efficiency, order and attention-to-detail. We requested specific linen, silverware, dishes and glassware. The tables and food layout looked amazing, and throughout the evening, the venue operated smoothly. My responsibilities were to mingle with guests and family, and have fun too. Serendipity staff worked in the background providing excellent service. Thank you, Krystal, for your professionalism and efficiency, and please let your staff know they did a wonderful job. Thank you!, Lisa H.

Amanda and her team at Serendipity were amazing. The food was delicious and they were on time and seamless the whole night. They were amazing and helpful while I picked out linen and plates and had great communication. They made the day seamless and has great service for our 202 guest wedding!

We worked with Serendipity as part of having our wedding at Great Marsh. At first, we weren't sure how it would go as we didn't have a choice with our venue selection, but we were incredibly happy with their food quality, responsiveness, organization, and staff. Everyone we worked with was so kind and talented and we would highly recommend them!!

Highly recommend Serendipity to everyone!! The staff is incredible and so caring! They made sure my husband and I were cared for always. They pay attention to the little things. They came in the bridal suite and asked what we wanted from our charcuterie board (after already providing us 2 of each appetizer). My husband made his request and they brought back plenty which was so nice of them! I can go on forever about the staff and the owner, they are just incredible!!!! Of course the food was absolutely amazing and delicious! The guests raved about the food!
