Perfect for our Calhoun Wedding!

Dee and her team were very hospitable and communicative. They helped from start to finish in the planning process. The food was delicious! We received several complements on the mushroom ravioli. The food over all was a hit with our guests. The service was wonderful all around!

Incredible food!

Dee and her team were so great to work with! Not only was our food delicious, they went out of their way to make sure a loved one with a severe food allergy was able to enjoy their own delicious food safely. The mushroom ravioli was everyone's favorite!

Fantastic to work with

We just met the crew of Tasteful Gatherings at a wedding this past Saturday, that we were jointly serving. All of their crew were easy to work with, and professional. We seamlessly merged our service efforts, and excelled at meeting the needs our of mutual client. We look forward to working with them again, and will certainly refer new clients to them.

Incredible food and customer service!

We were really struggling to find a caterer that would work within our budget, and my MOH used Tasteful Gatherings for her own wedding a few years earlier. Everyone had compliments on the food, and Dee was so great to work with! We added a popcorn and hot chocolate station later, and she had great suggestions while keeping our budget in mind. We were so glad that we used them and would recommend them to anyone!

Phenomenal and Truly the Best of the Best

I cannot say enough amazing things about the Tasteful Gatherings team. I hired Tasteful Gatherings to cater my wedding in Knoxville TN. They were MORE affordable by a long shot even with the travel fee since they were a little farther away. Beyond the awesome price point, the entire staff is so amazing to work with. From beginning to end they all worked hard to make our wedding day perfect. When discussing the menu, they were quick to adapt to exactly what I wanted (simple, good, southern food). Dee and Kim made planning SO easy and answered all of my hairbrained questions. While all of this is enough to warrant a recommendation on their behalf, what sets this team above all others is how they handled my wedding day:

#1: I had a quick swap from ceremony to reception because the two events were in the same room. They came in, set up, and got ready to go THEN helped my family set up for the reception.
#2: When my bartenders were a little late and my coordinator was getting worried, Dee reassured her that she would handle it and CALL IN REINFORCEMENTS to bartend if necessary.
#3: ALL the Tasteful Gatherings team members present at my wedding were friendly, helpful, and hardworking.

Again, I cannot sing their praises enough. If you need an event catered... CALL THEM!

Above and Beyond!

Planning a wedding is not an easy task especially when planning from out of state. We spoke with over 6 catering companies but after speaking with Kim and Dee, we knew right away that Tasteful Gatherings would go above and beyond to make our day special. They listened to every detail and Dee even organized a tasting for 7 members of my family and had our baker present for cake tasting as well. We had a large variety of guests including about 30 children, 25 vegetarian guests with a total of 250 guests. Our passed appetizers, charcuterie table and meal were a highlight. But most importantly, the guests that attended verbalized to my husband and I of how kind all the serving staff was throughout the night. I would 100% recommend Dee and her Tasteful Gatherings team for any catering needs. Thank you for being a part of our day!

They cranked it to 11

Dee was amazing. Catered the wedding as well as the rehearsal dinner. Her staff and company were awesome and people are still asking me about the chicken casserole. Seriously wanna have a cook off! Her food was amazing and her service was the epitome of southern hospitality.

Caterer Tasteful Gatherings

Tasteful Gatherings was great to work with as due to the Covid-19 virus the April 2020 wedding was changed to December 2020. This made the whole menu change from family style dinner to plated and the coctail hour from buffet to passed. Also at the last month they were able to plan and execute a reception rather than a rehersal dinner. By the way, all the food was delicious and the service was excellent. Highly recommend this company as very accomadating.

Great food and better service

Dee and the entire team at Tasteful Gatherings are simply the best. Planning a wedding from out of town- for your sister no less- is not an easy feat and Dee made it wonderful. She worked with me to help set a menu that fit the season, allergies, and the unique feel the bride and groom wanted. When COVID forced the April wedding to move to December, she helped to revamp the entire menu to our family favorites, including using our recipes. All of our guests raved about the food. In addition to tasting amazing, the service was impeccable. When the dance floor was a little sparse, some of her staff even got out to help get the party started!

I also used Tasteful Gatherings to cater a welcome reception/ rehearsal dinner and again, had a wonderful experience. I gave Dee and Kim a vague idea of what I wanted, and they created a menu that tasted amazing. It was dropped off promptly and set up in a very attractive manner. I cannot recommend Tasteful Gatherings enough for any catering needs.
