Cold Stone was such a hit at my wedding. All the guests loved the Ultimate Sundae Bar!

Rachel and the entire Catered by Design team helped make our wedding a huge success! From our first tasting to the wedding day, they made the entire process easy and stress-free. After our first tasting, we knew which entrées we wanted but were still unsure about the sides, hors d'oeuvres, and dessert selections. They happily welcomed us back for a second tasting so we could finalize our menu, which we really appreciated. Rachel was incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process and during the final walkthrough at our venue. The staff on our wedding day was amazing and made sure both we and our guests had everything we needed. Plus, the food was absolutely delicious! We received so many compliments from our guests. I would highly recommend Rachel and the Catered by Design team to anyone looking for exceptional food and outstanding service for their event.

Ati and Ovy and the whole team were fantastic! The months leading up to our wedding day, we were so excited for the food after our tasting. Ati was so attentive and detailed and it was so easy to work with him. Ati listened to our food preferences so well and made such a beautiful menu for our guests. Unluckily for us, we discovered a pest infestation at our original venue where Ati and Ovy’s team was supposed to cater. As we were frantically trying to find a new space to host our wedding, I called Ati to explain the situation at 7am the morning of our wedding. Ati reassured me and told me, “we will follow you anywhere” and they did. The whole team was so flexible, understanding, and supporting. We are truly so grateful that everything worked out! On the day of the wedding, Ovy and his staff were so helpful and friendly. Since we had a last minute change to our venue, our original floor plan and seating chart could no longer be used but the catering team seamlessly transitioned the space from the ceremony to reception. The whole team looked so organized and composed that it made us forget the stress of having to change all the details we had planned months before. Everyone was so professional and so courteous not only to my husband and I but to our families and guests. The team went above and beyond by personally bringing us drinks and our personal tray of hors d’oeuvres and asking our families if they needed anything. We were all incredibly stressed that morning because of the venue fiasco, but Ovy and his team made us feel supported and cared for and we were able to enjoy the day we had been looking forward to. The food was amazing!! Multiple people came up to us on the day of our wedding to tell us it was the best food they have eaten at a wedding. During cocktail hour, we served hors d’oeuvres, including a stuffed eggplant bite and short rib costrini that my husband’s cousins from out of town loved!! It was so special to see people from out of town come to celebrate us and enjoy such yummy food. My brother in law worked in the restaurant industry for a long time so his standards are pretty high but he said the short rib dish he ate was so good and one of the best meals he’s had. We also served a minty pea soup that everyone loved - we had someone come up to us while we were sitting at our sweetheart table to tell us they loved it! My husband and I love eating well and we wanted great food at our wedding for our friends and families. We are so happy that Ati, Ovy, and the whole team made that happen for us!

We hired Connie's for our wedding on 3/25/23 and they exceeded our expectations! We had a simple menu with pizza, salad, and pasta. Our guests RAVED about the food and said how delicious it was! We worked closely with JoAnn and she was awesome. She took all of our requests into consideration and made them happen. Would definitely recommend if you and your partner love pizza and are looking for a simple and affordable meal for your wedding!

We had our wedding at Lacuna Lofts, which meant we had the absolute pleasure of having LM Catering as our wedding caterer. We had so many friends and family members compliment the dinner and dessert table, saying that this was “actually delicious wedding food”! We had a number of dietary restrictions, and LM’s vast menu and options made it so easy to accommodate everyone’s needs while also making everything taste DELICIOUS! Everything was presented beautifully, and we particularly loved that the sides were served family-style, which we hadn’t seen at many weddings before. We made some changes to our picks numerous times, and Tania was so accommodating in making any and all changes we requested! Our dessert table and yummy pretzel late night snacks were huge hits with our guests, and being able to get everything – dinner, dessert, and snacks – from one vendor was so seamless. We would highly recommend LM to anyone looking for a tasty, fun wedding caterer!

We catered from Sabri for my daughter’s multi cultural wedding and everyone loved to food. Safdar was amazing to work with and helped us choose the perfect menu. There was so much food left over we had guest take trays home. The food was so good we are planning to go back to the restaurant for dinner. One recommendation for this restaurant to allow people booking a wedding to offer a tasting.

After our first caterer canceled on us, Cocina Fusion came in and truly saved the day. It goes without saying that they were absolutely impeccable—beyond perfection. To this day, we still have guests complimenting not only the incredible food but also the outstanding catering staff! We chose the dual plated option, and wow—our guests were blown away, and so were we! Every plate looked absolutely divine. The attention to detail and precision were remarkable. We couldn't have asked for a better team to be part of our wedding day. I have to give a HUGE shoutout to Cindy, who was our lead throughout this entire process. She truly helped guide the whole night, managed everything seamlessly, and was attentive to every detail. We had so many challenges with our venue, but Cindy reassured us every step of the way that everything would run smoothly—and she was absolutely right. She always found a way to say "yes" to my ideas and never made us feel like we were asking for too much. We are so incredibly grateful for her and the entire Cocina Fusion team. If you're looking for a wedding caterer, do yourself a favor and book Cocina Fusion. They exceeded every expectation and played such a huge part in making our wedding day unforgettable!

From our first conversation with Kenny at My Chef Catering, we knew we were in good hands. He made the planning process simple and stress-free, answering our questions quickly and helping us figure out exactly what we wanted without any back-and-forth. On our wedding day, we didn't worry about the food at all because we trusted his team completely. The dishes were delicious and came out perfectly timed, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how good everything was. Kenny and his crew showed up, did their job with precision, and let us enjoy the celebration without any hiccups. We'd recommend My Chef Catering to anyone looking for a caterer who delivers both incredible food and peace of mind.

We are so glad we chose Polonia as our caterer for our wedding! They were extremely helpful and courteous in choosing our food menu and planning our seating arrangements. It was great to be able to go through 1 vendor for almost all of the necessities for an outdoor wedding. The food was delicious and hot, even with their 1 hour commute to the venue. Would definitely recommend!
