The perfect wedding catering

Debbie and her team did an amazing job with our wedding! Debbie herself was so kind and enthusiastic about our wedding, and the whole team delivered excellent food and service. Our guests have been bringing it up every time they talk to us about the wedding. In the months leading up, Debbie was communicative and flexible and constantly made us feel like we were in good hands. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect day.

Ultimate Professionalism

Spice Catering was referred by my vendor of choice so I knew they would not disappoint, but they kicked it out of the park! Reginal Mueller who was my contact was responsive, accessible, coordinating with the other vendors. The staff on the day felt like old friends for the personable and yet professional making my event a wonderful success!

The Best Cocktail Hour

Debbie worked went above and beyond to plan and provide a wedding cocktail hour that was delicious, plentiful, and considerate of allergies and dietary preferences of all of our guests. We had a beautiful harvest table and passed hors d'oeuvres that guests enjoyed and raved about after our event. The Spice staff was attentive and professional.
We are so happy that Spice Catering was part of our wedding day!

Couldn’t imagine working with another vendor!

Spice catering group went above and beyond. They were a pleasure to work with leading up to the event and exceeded expectations on the day of. They did everything they could to make sure we felt no stress about the kitchen. They even put my bouquet in water and packaged it up for me to take home. They allowed us to serve alongside them as a way to greet our guests and they were incredibly accommodating and welcoming the whole time! All staff were just so kind and helpful we can’t recommend them enough!

Spice Catering made our dream wedding a reality

We’re so happy we chose Billy and his team at Spice for our wedding. Beyond incredible food and drinks (the strawberry gin and tonic was everyone’s favorites) with an extremely flexible menu selection process, Spice Catering’s attention to detail was second to none. They helped us find our vision for our wedding and made sure every aspect was perfect. They made sure our wedding day was about us and we didn’t have to stress about a single thing. On top of that, his staff made sure to make us feel like special and went along with every slight curveball we through the night. We truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better and we want to thank Billy and his team at Spice for making our dream wedding come true. You, hands down, cannot hire somebody better for your wedding in the Hudson Valley.

Fabulous Wedding 7/5/25

Spice was responsive, professional and easy to work with. My husband and I primarily worked with Deb, who was flexible and offered us a multitude of options that worked for us. She was excellent.

As for the wedding, the food was yummy, and exactly what we expected. My nonna was seated far away from the kitchen and didn’t get an appetizer from a passed tray, so she told an employee, and the server came to her every time there was a new tray. The servers were kind and professional, helping us with cake and dessert as well. The bar was well stocked, with batch cocktails already made and there was never a line longer than 2 or 3 people. Overall, I highly recommend Spice Catering. They are a great value and are doing an excellent job in the catering industry!

Awesome people and awesome catering!

Spice has always exceeded expectations with their food choices, quality, and service. Their staff and managers such as Debbie make the process so easy and efficient. At my cousins wedding debbie was always readily available with answers and information, practical and realistic, and met all expectations and requests. The chef did an amazing job as the food was spectacular, and the staff were very friendly during service. They helped setup as well as break down with no issues. Always love to use Spice and would definitely recommend anyone to use them!
