The staff at Bacio, and especially their coordinator Kelli, are top notch. They were easy to work with, responsive to questions, and communicative. The food was excellent and they were flexible with our dietary and miscellaneous requests. We would highly recommend their services.

Shandi and Special Times were absolutely amazing and I not only recommend them, but would strongly encourage anyone to use Special Times as a caterer for their event. Special Times catered our June wedding. The food was absolutely delicious! We had guests tell us it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding. Shandi and Mindy were great from the beginning, helping us come up with a menu and plan quickly and efficiently in our first meeting. They have been catering for a long time, and we had immediate confidence in their ability and that they were attentive to details. They were extremely responsive and helpful later on as well after we had booked them for our event. They went above and beyond. They had a pretty cake stand and cutting utensils we could use. When asked if gold plastic silverware could be used instead of the regular silver to match our colors, Shandi said no problem at all, she’d order some. Special Times set up all our table decorations and even our guest book table. This was abnormally difficult due to rainy weather earlier in the day, and then we were tied up catching up when we were fortunate enough to have great weather later in the day. Shandi and the special times staff really shined brightly in this crunch time to make our special time special. This was SO huge! And then later, Shandi even made sure wedding gifts were safe and put in our room. There were a few other wise on the fly decisions, such as due to wind we cut the cake a little early which worked out great. Every opportunity possible Special Times went above and beyond our expectations. You will be so happy going with Special Times.

Great food and wonderful service. No complaints and plenty of food.

Nicole at Spiteri's Was great!!! The food was so good, we had a simple backyard wedding with picnic style food and the staff even stayed and did the dishes, outside in a tupperwear bin!! They were always smiling and happy to help. During the planning phase they were flexible and easy to work with. I love eating at their deli and the salads are impressive!

Garibaldi's Catering impressed us more than anyone at the Chico Bridal Show. It was the most flavorful and after trying several other vendors that day we decided to go with Kevin. I'm so glad we did! He is very passionate about his profession and makes some of the most delicious food I've ever tasted. We didn't have a lot of imagination on what to have for dinner (he'll cook literally anything for you) so we went with Chicken and Tri-Tip. You know how when you go to a conference or a wedding and you see chicken and pass it up because you just know it's going to be dry and flavorless? Well, this would be the one time you're wrong! I attended several weddings prior to my own last year and that dry chicken that you would expect was exactly the case. In comparison, Kevin's chicken is the most succulent and juicy that you'll ever have! I had also tried other caterer's Tri-Tip and was not impressed, once again his Tri-Tip was absolutely delicious and stood out above everyone else! We had a small portion of our guests that needed Vegetarian and he had that available for those that requested it as well. The strawberry salad, garlic mashed potatoes, and grilled vegetables were all excellent accents to the main dish. The hydration station gave our guests plenty of options for beverages alongside our bar, and Kevin even brought a hot water dispenser so we could have Hot Cocoa available to our guests. Working with Kevin was very smooth. He was very helpful throughout the process and he and his staff's upbeat personality just added to the joy of the wedding day. We did couple photos during the cocktail hour so he made sure to set aside an hors d'oeuvre tray just for us. Our friends and family absolutely enjoyed dinner and have commented on it more than once since. I only wish we had another excuse to hire him in the near future. If you include Garibaldi in your wedding you'll have a fantastic meal to eat at the end of a long day, and you'll have very happy and full guests!

The BEST ice cream in Chico! We had Shubert's Ice Cream at our wedding! We decided to mix it up and serve both cupcakes and ice cream to our guests. Though it was early November, and a bit on the cool side for weather, it was a great success! Our guests LOVED it! It was so fun and refreshing to have ice cream at our wedding! We had both the ice cream cart and a server to attend it. If you can afford this I highly suggest it. We didn't want a family member to have to worry about taking care of this for us or folks self-serving (especially with little ones running around). Have Shuberts at your wedding, you won't regret it!
