Simply amazing

We hired SEI as our caterer for our wedding. All of the food was simply amazing! Jen and her team were so easy to work with. All of our guests raved how good the food was, including the apple crisp! We highly recommend SEI for all of your catering needs.

Simply amazing

SEI Catering was the perfect choice for our wedding on 10/12/19! The staff was fantastic, and the food was amazing. We received so many compliments on how good the food was. The staff came the day before the wedding to set everything up and the set up looked amazing. As soon as we sampled SEI, we knew that was who we wanted to work with. I definitely recommend to anyone who is in need of a caterer for any event!

Five Stars for SEI

SEI was AMAZING! We actually didn't know SEI existed; my father-in-law's friend had recommended them to him, so we decided to check them out. From the tasting to our actual dinner at the reception, SEI was fantastic! Lori had handled our tasting and she was very friendly, helpful and informative. Jen was quick to respond and also friendly and helpful. The food during the tasting was great!

We opted to have our meal served to us during the reception and the catering staff was prompt in getting us our meal as soon as we finished our first dance. While we didn't get to interact with the catering staff much, we are very pleased with the work they did! We had so many compliments from our guests about the main meal. We had a few guests who had the vegetarian option and they loved it. We missed out on the cheesecake, but we heard from our guests that it was delicious! We had 200 guests and they had them all through the lines in about 20 minutes.

I initially was worried because we had recently attended a wedding (the kitchen was on-site) and the food was cold, so I had inquired to Jen about my worries regarding the food getting cold (especially since we didn't have a kitchen on-site) and she reassured me they wouldn't have a problem keeping it warm. It was just a fear I had, but there weren't any problems at all!

They were so great with cleanup and they packed everything that was left over for us. We actually didn't have much food left because our guests ate a ton! We heard nothing but positive things from our guests about SEI.

We highly would recommend SEI to anyone. They really are wonderful and so helpful. They have a large menu selection; it was hard to decide what we wanted! Two of the things I liked was 1) they charged one price for the appetizers and it wasn't a per person price and 2) they offered salads with the meal at no additional price. Some of the caterers we met had salads as an additional charge. With an initial guest list of 250 guests, we learned food gets expensive quick when there are per person prices and additional charges, but SEI's prices are very reasonable! You will not be disappointed if you would hire them for your wedding!

Sei's Catering was absolutely fantastic. You can't beat their prices and the food is so delicious. From the generous tasting (complete with to-go boxes for leftovers) to our our June 2017 wedding, everything went perfectly. Jen even worked hard last minute to find square black plates, rather than round. I can't say enough great things about their business and the quality of their food. Definitely consider Sei's for your next event if you're looking for a savory, filling meal.

We had the pleasure of working with Jen and her team at Wind in the Willows (Grantville, PA) the past weekend. What a great experience! The food, service and presentation was outstanding! We heard rave reviews all night long from the guests. It's rare to have another vendor be so accommodating! Jen and her team were flexible, efficient and professional throughout the evening! The SEI team seemed to function as well oiled machine. We thoroughly enjoyed working with Jen and the SEI Catering team! We recommend them highly!
