Truly amazing. Book now!

Holly was amazing from start to finish; the one thing I did not stress over was the food because this company is so put together you don’t have to worry about a thing. To add it, the food was phenomenal. We were serve separately after cocktail hour and we could not get over how tasty our food was and how amazing the staff members were. I cannot recommend them enough: 10 stars!

Absolutely fantastic!!

We hired happy catering for our daughter’s wedding. From the first meeting Holly and her staff made us feel so at ease. Everything is so well organized and their menus are so extensive. Holly was a huge help in creating the perfect menu with a gluten free bride in mind! The food for the wedding far exceeded our expectations. The presentation was beautiful! No need for extra arrangements or decor! And the food was delicious!! All our guests (over 300!) have raved about how amazing the food tasted.
And during and after the event the staff from Happy never let an empty plate sit for even a moment and the clean up was just as efficient!
They even boxed up our leftovers (which we enjoyed the next day!!).
Overall I can’t say enough good things about Happy Catering. We have one more wedding in our future and we will definitely be hiring Happy Carering again!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
