Thank you French Gourmet!!!!!!!!

I was at a loss with a limited budget and no wedding planner and The French Gourmet team SAVED my wedding!!!!! Renee was absolutely fantastic, she heard all of my ideas and worked incredibly well with my budget. Renee was incredibly honest and helpful letting me know what was and wasn’t necessary, and that helped me so much. She understood my vision and ran with it, and the execution was perfection. The French Gourmet was my catering, bar, and wedding coordination service and they killed it. All the guests commented on the impeccable service. The bar was fantastic, all their drinks were on point and they created the best welcome cocktail ever!!!! Renee helped coordinate everything and was with me every step of the way, thank goodness! The day of, the talented Laura Reynolds was my wedding coordinator and I can’t say enough just how spectacular she was!!!! She took absolutely all the stress off of me and the wedding could not have gone more smoothly. THANK YOU for creating my most precious memory, and making it incredible!!!!

Good food, great service

The food was delicious, the staff was top notch for serving and clearing even though we had a buffet option, and the croquembouche we had as our "cake" was one of the best things I've eaten!

Most beautiful wedding cake

We thank the French gourmet bakery and Trang for the most beautiful and extremely tasty wedding cake they catered for us. Trang was very helpful, patient and kind and helped make our special day even more special! I initially went back and forth several times about selecting my cake but Trang was so patient with me and helped me make the perfect selection. Thank you to the entire team for the amazing job they did for our big day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
