Stacy at Straton Hall helped to create a dream wedding for my daughter. We communicated on the phone and through e-mail frequently. He responded promptly and let us know that our satisfaction was his goal. The flowers were magnificent, exactly what my daughter had envisioned. We would recommend Straton Hall without reservation.

Wonderful.....The beest food, the best decor, the best customer service... Simply the BEST!

We were beyond pleased with Straton Hall Catering. We booked the beautiful venue, Cedar Lodge on Honey Creek. Several days later the Venue Director, Tiffany notified me that she was able to book Straton Hall Catering for our daughter’s wedding. Honestly, we did not know anything about Straton Hall except Tiffany was very pleased that she was able to book them. We met Jay at our tasting and that’s when we understood Tiffany’s excitement. Jay made the entire experience fun. He was always upbeat and made all of us feel special. Our wonderful Wedding Planner, Anna of Swanson Signature Events, scheduled the tasting and gave Jay a list of the appetizers and entrees that we were interested in. We went to his restaurant in Brunswick. He had a beautiful private room upstairs and we tasted all of the wonderful food. Jay described everything as we ate and explained how it would be displayed. He made recommendations along the way as we discussed everything. We selected Fruit, Mushroom Brochette, Crab Cakes, Shrimp and Oysters as our appetizers. The Shrimp and Oysters were displayed beautifully and were prepared to perfection. Jay’s staff walked around serving the other appetizers while pictures were taking place. We are very picky about how our seafood is cooked and many times it is over cooked. Not with Straton Hall. We had a dear friend who always cooks seafood well. He made a special point to tell us Jay knew what he was doing. The seafood was great. As entrees we selected Shrimp and Grits and Maple, Pecan crusted Chicken. The chicken was great but his award winning Shrimp and Grits stole the show!! I have had so many people tell me how great all the food was and especially the Shrimp and Grits! Their next statement is always “Do you think Jay will share his recipe for Shrimp and Grits.” We also had his famous Macaroni and Cheese Station. A must have!! Everyone knows Jay by now. We have talked about him so much and everyone noticed how hard he was working during the wedding reception. Jay was very well staffed. He had lots of people with him working the reception. We consider Jay a special friend. Due to cancer my husband was unable to eat at the tasting and the night of the reception. Jay saved him a sample of all the food to freeze for later but my husband and I plan to go to Jay’s restaurant after he is well and order everything on our daughter’s menu. We are especially looking forward to seeing our friend Jay again. Clearly, I would recommend you book Straton Hall Catering. If they don’t have your date available, change your date.

We were throwing surprise birthday two-night party for our mom. Stacy and Jay with Straton Hall were fantastic in helping us plan the menu. They were flexible in the minor changes we asked for and delivered the food on two separate occasions The food was hot and ready to be served. It also stayed that way a good hour after arriving. They were also sensitive to the fact that this was a surprise party so the first evening's timing was crucial. They showed up exactly on time and instructed us on any helpful serving tips. They were also the most responsive when I contacted a few caterers. Because of their attention to detail, professionalism and quality, I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing catering, event planning, etc., down in the Golden Isles area. Straton Hall, and Stacy and Jay in particular, were fantastic!

Our first of 4 daughters got married on May 6, 2011 and she and her man booked Straton Hall on St. Simon Island, GA. We live in Michigan so we were not familiar with Straton Hall. I must say I was very pleased with their choice of caterers. Stacy & Jay were very helpful with me in the decisions that had to be made from a long distance away. I dealt with Stacy in regards to the food & the bar for the wedding night. He was very friendly and helpful! the food was excellent. Everyone from Michigan that attended the wedding loved all the food! The wait staff was very friendly and attentive to the guests. Especially Nancy the bartender for the evening! She was the best!! I would defenitely recommend Straton Hall Caterers for any event!

Stacy and Jay were very accommodating to our menu wishes when we went for our tasting and came up with an amazing menu for a great value. When our wedding day came, I had no idea how many additional things they would do to add to our decor. They had their own decor for the buffet line - dry pasta, vegetables, etc. in glass containers, 6-8 foot tall iced tea and water containers, etc. I thought we would get the basic catering deal with just the food, but they made our tent look even more amazing with the add-ons they bring with them. Not to mention, the food was AMAZING.

I have been involved with a lot of weddings, and this was our son's wedding and I cannot say enough about how AWESOME these guys are to work with. We had approx. 100 guest and they were all talking about how wonderful the reception was, and the food was the best ever at a wedding. We highly recommend the shrimp and grits, and tortellini. Stacy and Jay ( owners of Straton Hall ) went well beyond the call of duty when one of the large centerpieces got destroyed by a delivery person, and re-made the whole thing and looked like new.
We will also be back to see them at the Brunswick Manor bed and breakfast soon.

I had an amazing experience working with Stacy & Jay at Straton Hall for my wedding. They have such impeccable taste which creates that something special you're looking for on your wedding day. The Southern cuisine we chose for the food was delicious- I'm still craving the shrimp and grits! I wasn't sure what direction I wanted for my flowers but Stacy gave me great ideas and came up with the most gorgeous centerpieces and bouquets. Most importantly, though, everyone there was a pleasure to work with and kept everything running smoothly for me. I am the type to be a little high-strung and was certainly nervous about my wedding day but I couldn't have asked for better service.

Straton Hall Events was the caterer, florist, cake vendor, and event design group for our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and wedding reception - talk about "one stop shop!" The service was absolutely impeccable from the start of the planning process to the big day itself! Planning from out of state is an intimidating task, but Straton Hall made the process fun, exciting, and, most importantly, an absolute breeze! When we were in town, the Straton Hall staff did everything in their power to meet with us at our venue to discuss details. Not only did they truly listen to what we wanted for the event, but also researched and suggested ideas that complimented our "wedding style!" It can also be scary having the same caterer/event design group working both your rehearsal and your wedding due to the fear of the food or decor being too similar. This was simply not the case. The two events couldn't have been more different - each perfect in their own way. When it came down to the big day, to say that our outdoor ceremony and reception were "rained out" would be a complete understatement. Straton Hall remained calm, cool, and collected throughout set up and created an unforgettable event. The ceremony was forced from its original location to being held under the tent where the tables for the reception were originally supposed to be set. Straton Hall, along with Heather Marshall of Island Weddings Day of Coordination and Beachview Tent Rentals, flipped the layout in no time to create the perfect, intimate reception setting that we were hoping for - all while the guests were still underneath! I will go as far as saying that the back-up plan ended up being better than I ever could have imagined and was even better than our original plan! I would recommend Straton Hall to ANY bride looking for a fabulously fun catering and event design group that can work with any budget and work amazingly well under pressure. Well done, Straton Hall!

Straton Hall provides exceptional service for all events. There isn't anything this company can't do they'll take care of everythig for you and are amazing to work with!
