Stop looking and choose Simply Entertaining!

The absolute best service I could ask for. Robin went above and beyond helping me plan the perfect day. Our venue didn’t even have a kitchen (not something I knew to look for when booking) yet the food was still amazing and hot when served. The whole staff is superb!

Goodwin Wedding 2.20.21

I wasn't familiar with Simply Entertaining until I started working for a retail company Coton Colors whose store front is adjoining to SE. We tried their food for the first time during quarantine and let me tell you what their brisket was the highlight of our week that week! It was so FUN just meeting with Robin for our first consult visit we had to have her at our special day. She made us feel so confident that she understood our vision and her main priority would be to make sure we had the best day ever no matter what that took! Right after the ceremony Robin found us and made sure we had hors d'oeuvres from the cocktail hour and a glass of champagne before (more) photos! All in all Robin, Eric and the whole SE team are there to make sure your having a blast and eating amazing food what more could we ask for? Thank you, thank you!!!

And if you were wondering, yes, we had brisket at the wedding!

The DREAM Wedding Team!

Simply Entertaining made our August 2020 wedding an enormous success. Robin ensured that every detail of our wedding was attended to and was a tremendous resource during planning. When our ceremony and reception had to move indoors last minute due to inclement weather, Robin didn't skip a beat and transformed the new venue into an absolute fairytale. The food was spectacular, the service was spot on, and we could not have asked for a better team to execute our special day. I cannot say enough good things about Simply Entertaining!

Great service and amazing food!

Simply Entertaining is the best catering in and around Tallahassee, FL! Robin and her team knocked it out of the park. We had them for our catering and bar service for our wedding last weekend and we couldn't have been happier with the food, drink, and service. Multiple family members mentioned how friendly and fun she and the staff were. She also helped us create our menu and cocktail hour beverage. Robin and SE are the best!

Wonderful event!

Simply Entertaining did a fantastic job! Robin and her staff went above and beyond my
expectations! Everyone kept complimenting on how delicious the food and appetizers were. Just as important, Robin made sure that everything went smoothly as promised. I highly recommend them for a successful weding reception or other event.

They are incredible

Robin Lewis and her staff are simply amazing. I will never be able to express how thankful I am for all of them. I originally contacted Simply Entertaining because I was in need of a caterer. It was not long after that I knew I wanted Robin in charge of the entire wedding. Robin instantly made me feel like her family. She was so open to all of my ideas and had plenty of them to share with me. She went above and beyond to make my wedding day absolutely perfect. The food was OUT OF THIS WORLD good (smoked brisket, smoked chicken, macaroni and cheese, green beans, and broccoli). The flowers were stunning and the decor was perfect. I do not know how she did it, but she captured my vision perfectly. My wedding day was a dream and it is all thanks to Mrs. Robin Lewis and the rest of her staff at Simply Entertaining.

Highly highly highly recommend!!

To say Robin and her team are amazing is a complete understatement. They made our wedding the fairytale of my dreams! I appreciate everything they pulled together and can not imagine anyone else coordinating or catering my wedding! She is a one stop shop and did everything from the linens to catering and bartending. She ever surprised me with an amazing photo booth!! It was so much fun! 😁😁😁

Amazing everything!!

I recently decided to throw a surprise 10-year anniversary party for my wife. I contacted several local caterers & event planners. Quickly, it became apparent that Robin & Simply Entertaining were by far the best choice.

Every step of the way Robin & Chef Eric went above & beyond my wildest expectations. To the last detail, Robin planned everything including menu, decorations, bar, staff, apps, oysters, everything. Eric executed that menu to a tee. The decorations were so much better than the vague description I provided. Even the napkins in our college colors were perfect.

I cannot recommend Simply entertaining enough. I will not use any other caterer or event planner. Thank you so much for everything Robin & Eric. It was a blast.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Robin with Simply Entertaining is not only funny and talented but also one of the hardest working event planners and catering companies I've had the pleasure of working with! Her food is out of this world and I use her for my own personal events and love seeing her at weddings we work together. Your guests will rave over her talented staff and presentation long after your wedding is over. I highly recommend her and know you will be grateful she is working with you on your wedding day!
