    What a wonderful experience!

    As the couple's wedding coordinator for their destination wedding in Hot Springs, Arkansas, I worked with Vibrant Occasions for almost a year to create the perfect menu and experience for this special wedding! Leah and her team went above and beyond throughout the proposal process as we had a ton of questions and changes throughout our time working together. The day-off execution was flawless and Leah, Michelle and their team were so fun and great to work with! The food was wonderful and bar service was superb. I really hope I get the chance to work with them again someday and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caterer.

    Fabulous food and service

    Vibrant Occasions is far and away the best caterer I’ve ever worked with! Their food is wonderful and creative, beautifully presented, and served professionally and courteously. Every aspect of their work is excellent and we couldn’t be happier with hiring them for our daughter’s wedding reception!

    Vibrant Occasions Catering's reply:

    Beverly,

    Thank you so much for your kind words and for letting us be a small part of your family's special day!
