We take into consideration your budget, the style of your wedding, and your personal relationship with the cuisine. If you’re looking for ease of choice, we offer packages. That said, even our packages allow you personalization with an ample array of options for appetizers, entrees, desserts, and even refreshments. We live in a foodie world, and our staff is passionate about working side by side with our couples to integrate food as the main event at their wedding.

Reviews of Summit Event Catering
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
We got married in Long Beach, CA on 10/12/24 and all of our guests said Summit's food was THE BEST they had ever been served at wedding! I cannot recommend Summit Event Catering more! Pamela Aki especially was fantastic to work with. We chose the plated option for a guest count of just under 160 guests. We found the prices to be reasonable as compared to other vendors, and the quality of the menu, ingredients, and overall taste to be outstanding! Additionally, Summit allowed us to make several reasonable alterations to our chosen package, which we were really grateful for, due to several guest allergies, etc! Pam was incredibly communicative throughout our entire working relationship and we are so grateful. She made the process so easy! On our wedding day, everything went smoothly and the Summit staff was fantastic. We look back at the catering portion of our wedding with fond memories. Thank you Summit & Pam!

Go with Summit!
Summit will not disappoint!!!
I hired Summit for my black tie wedding in Palm Springs. We drove to Orange county for a tasting and we knew they were the company for us right away. The food was delicious and the staff was warm, friendly, and organized!
Pam, our event coordinator, was awesome! She was always available for a quick phone call for questions. She even drove out to Palm Springs to check out the venue before our big day to make sure everything went smoothly.
SO many of our guests talked about how much they loved the food!
Presentation was lovely and price was very reasonable. Everything went perfectly as planned.
I would 1000% recommend Summit.

Best caterer
Summit Event Catering was the best caterer for our event! We worked with Debbie and she was an absolute sweetheart. The food was delicious and all of our guests left very happy and full! From the appetizers to the main dishes, everything was absolutely perfect. We know we can count on them for any future events!
I LOVE working with Summit Events. I work directly with Pam AKI for all of my catering needs. She is absolutely amazing in what she does. The food quality and presentation is by far the best I have ever had in any of my events. IF your are planning an event, you must call SUMMIT EVENTS!
We can't say enough good things about Summit Event Catering! They know the Red Horse Barn like the back of their hand they will take care of you from the moment you first connect. Great food. Great people!
