Twin Oaks Caterers are amazing. They truly captured the food experience we wanted for our wedding. Not only was the food absolutely delicious, but Twin Oaks presentation was creative and thoughtful. Better yet, the staff were wonderful as well. Working with Mike was seamless. He helped us think through our options and what would work best for us. And the staff were incredibly professional the day of. We couldn't have asked for a better caterer! Thank you, Twin Oaks!

The food is unbelievable. So many of our guests asked for our caterer's number. We had a really wide variety of foods too, between cocktail hour and our stations reception, and everything, the perogies, turkey, pasta; everything was delicious.

Twin Oaks was so much more than just a caterer for us though. We were married at Rutgers Gardens. Michael Pelligra coordinated everything. He is very patient! We wanted the ceiling decorated a different way than he normally does it, we rented tents, heaters, and had a lot of set up in the cabin, and he did it all beautifully and seamlessly. He had a great network of vendors that made planning easier. The bakery for our wedding cake, Palermo's, was delicious and the cake was beautiful! We can't wait to eat the top layer on our anniversary. We used his DJ recommendation. He coordinated with all our other vendors and handled all the clean up. His staff was professional, courteous, and very attentive. Our head sever was so sweet and made sure we ate!

Michael had a lot of great suggestions and ideas; he kept us on track with the planning; and he was available whenever we needed him. He is very organized, which helps. We had a lot of details and he really executed them perfectly. I highly recommend Twin Oaks for any occasion.

Mike and the Twin Oaks team are incredible. Our reception was at Rutgers Gardens and as a "preferred RU caterer," Mike knew the venue inside and out! His kindness, availability, knowledge, and experience made our reception so easy and stress-free. We chose the most affordable buffet style option and linen choices. The food was OUTSTANDING. So many options! The wait and bar staffers were so friendly and accommodating. The pavilion is very sparse, but I didn't have to do any DIY decorations. Twin Oaks had beautiful white drapes and twinkle lights - exactly what I had imagined bringing in myself. They worked so well with our vendors - the cake and the centerpieces were perfectly arranged, and the linens Twin Oaks provided were beautiful. Mike invited us to drop off our guest book, card box, mementos, and pictures the week of the wedding to arrange in the cabin. I couldn't have done it better myself. They even put our sign out on the road and made sure no one got lost!

He knew the Rutgers Gardens staff so well, which came in handy when we had a near-catastrophe two days before the wedding! I had purchased the required insurance plan to use the pavilion months before RU's deadline. I had an email confirmation and a phone conversation confirming this. Two days before the big day, I got a call from RU saying they would cancel our wedding if we didn't submit our insurance. I called Mike on his cell phone after business hours in tears. His relationship with the Rutgers Gardens staff was invaluable - he called the administrator minutes later. RU gardens found the email the next morning and apologized. I don't know what we would have done without Mike.

My husband is finishing his PhD at Rutgers and we are local. We knew the gardens well, but we could never have done any of this without Mike's help. He even dealt with my crazy family! I am so grateful to Mike and the Twin Oaks staff. Everything was perfect!
