    Best Day Ever!!

    Kathy, Valerie, and the whole team were such a joy to work with from the very beginning. They were accommodating, understanding, and took their time to ensure our day was perfect (which it was)!! The apps and dinner were amazing and our friends & family couldn’t stop talking about it :-)

    Great experience!

    We loved the food from ASOL! It was delicious and the presentation was great, and they handled everything really smoothly. I honestly didn't even notice half of what they did, they were so smooth and unobtrusive. They were also responsive to some of the requests we had after our tasting, so our menu was just what we wanted. Our initial event manager left a couple months before our wedding, but Sena picked up where she left off without any issues and we had a great experience with her and her team!

    A Spice of Life Catering's reply:

    Thank you so much for the raving review, Katie! We are so happy to have hit the mark with presentation, smooth service, and to have delivered on the special requests. Sena is a superstar Event Specialist here at Spice. We all look forward to serving you in the future!

    ~ The Spice Family

    Great Experience

    We needed to find a vendor that offered vegan options as well as meat options and that it wasn’t basic or boring vegan options. We were also looking for a catering company that followed sustainable practices. A Spice of Life was the perfect fit for those needs as well as our budget. Kathy was so wonderful in helping us choose options that would meet our budget as well as deciding on our final menu. She was there for us every step along the way. Our tasting was fantastic and exactly what we hoped for! Our wedding day ran fairly smoothly. We decided to do a buffet for cost and it was disappointing to hear that we had run out of food before the last person was served even though we were missing 6 people who were supposed to show up to our wedding, but didn’t make it day of. Our day of catering manager/captain, Khadija was incredible! She was SO attentive and ensured we were well fed and taken care of as a couple. Truly, amazing team and food. I would highly recommend A Spice of Life Catering!

    Great food

    ASPOL was wonderful for our wedding day! Delicious food, the apps, sides, main dishes and late night snacks were all amazing! The only thing was that we were supposed to have a biscuit on our late night snack and we got a different bun (still so good) but they didn't update us on this change. Otherwise 10/10 all around!

    Best Fajita Bar Ever!

    We used A Spice of Life with the package we purchased through our vendor. They were so easy to work with! Our tasting was such a good expereince, they were able to customize certain items for us, and everyone enjoyed their food! It was fun and easy and we loved it all! At the end of the night they gave my husband and I a picnic basket of food for us to enjoy. Everything went perfectly and we highly recommend them!

    Breakfast for dinner

    The food was delicious and was very well prepared. We did a breakfast themed meal and they coordinated/worked with our ideas very well. They were amazing!

    Delicious & Professional

    Spice did the catering for our wedding of ~175 people, and we were extremely pleased with them!! Their food of course was delicious and the menu had plenty of options.

    At the tasting, we’d thought the bacon wrapped dates were a little over cooked. Kathy was insistent on us providing feedback in a way that almost no other vendors (in any industry) do. This made it easy for us to ask them to cook this appetizer a little differently, and it was a huge hit at the wedding!

    They were not the cheapest vendor, but their price is competitive and worth a little extra for the quality, and they helped design our menu to work for our budget.

    Their crew on wedding day was absolutely lights out!! They of course did an awesome job with all the normal food stuff, but they were also extremely helpful in serving the dessert and late night pizza that we’d ordered from a different vendor. They also did a ton that I’d have thought the venue was responsible for, but they helped regardless. On top of all that, everything was perfectly organized on the day of. There were no issues that came up because they had thought of everything in advance, making for a less stressful day.

    I’m really hoping this is the only time I get married, so tough to say I’d use them again, but I’d highly recommend them and if doing a different event would certainly hire them.

    Best Decision We Made

    A Spice of Life was, without question, the one best decisions we made throughout our entire wedding planning. We were absolutely blown away by Dawn’s knowledge of our venue, the quality of both the food and service of the ASOL team and how seamless everything went because of them. From my early emails, I knew Dawn was the right choice for us. She was extremely prompt to answer emails and take phone calls. We were feeling a little stressed about two months out from our wedding and we were able to have a 2 hour in-person meeting with Dawn who walked us through every single detail from rentals to food to beverage service. On the day, the service was impeccable and food was amazing. They nailed absolutely everything, down to the tiny details. They went above and beyond and provided top notch service all night long. We keep hearing from our guests that the food was the best they’d ever had at a catered event. I genuinely can’t recommend them enough; they are the best of the best. We love you Dawn + team!

    5/11 Wedding

    To say we were blown away by Spice of Life for our wedding this past weekend would be an understatement! From the beginning of the planning process, Amanda was responsive and so incredibly helpful. On the day of our wedding, she and her team were attentive to all our guests (and us!), thorough, and the food was AMAZING! All of our guests raved about their meals and the appetizers, which as big foodies meant a great deal to my husband and me; we couldn’t be happier!!! If you’re looking for a caterer for any event, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend SOL!

    I will start by saying my husband and I had extremely low expectations when it came to caterers. We have experienced underwhelming food at most weddings and figured it was status quo for producing mass quantities. We decided to blindly choose ASOL as they were the preferred caterer at our venue (Planet Bluegrass) and couldn't have been proven more wrong about this 'status quo'. The event specialist, Dawn, was with us every step of the way in planning the wedding and responded to emails even when on vacation. The food the day-of was exceptional (in a buffet no less) and the staff were all super professional - I didn't even know they were there. On the day-of, Dawn was also equally as present and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed without even having to ask. I can't say enough about this catering company and would encourage anyone to choose them to cater their wedding as they do that (and so much more) seamlessly and with so much positivity. Thank you, Dawn and staff, for making our day so incredible!

    We chose Spice of Life because they were on our venue's preferred caterer list, and because we had previously attended a wedding they catered and really liked the food. Well, we were not disappointed! I'm really happy with how responsive and easy to work with they were, and how they were willing to provide us with a customized menu that was unique, culturally specific, and delicious! Everyone loved the food at our wedding.

    Jake and the whole Spice of Life crew were absolutely fantastic to work with. Jake gave us his personal phone number and always responded to texts and emails within seconds. Even when he was on vacation with his family, he texted me back right away. On the day of the wedding, there was a rain storm before the ceremony and all of the chairs were soaked. Even though it was not their job at all, the crew from a spice of life ran out with towels to dry off all of the seats. Jake and the crew let us use any and all decorations they had, not just for the reception, for the ceremony as well. They provided the bridal party with snacks before the ceremony to help calm our tummies and our nerves. The food at the reception was absolutely amazing, I hear comments all of the time for my guests about how delicious it was. Everybody went back for seconds! I would recommend a spice of life for any event!!

    Amazing Wedding Caterer

    WOW! Kathy and Spice of Life was great to work with from day one. We went to a tasting and everything was absolutely great. The place was clean, presentation was great, and the food was delicious. My wife and I are both students and so being on a budget for a wedding can be challenging. However, Kathy was such a help and allowed us to find a menu that we loved while staying in a relative budget range. The day of our wedding was great as Spice of Life came in and set everything up with ease and we hardly even noticed they were there. The timing of serving the courses was great and the food was a good temperature. Our guests had great things to say about the meal choices and serving sizes. The crew was very nice and very professional when serving the plated dinner. We even invited them to come dance at the end of the night!

    Our venue gave us the option to choose from 4 preferred caterers, and I am soooo glad we chose Spice of Life! The food was amazing - from the fruit/cheese platter while we were getting ready to the plate of appetizers for my husband and I as we signed our marriage license to all the dinner entrees to the leftovers that were packed up for my husband and I to enjoy later in the night/the next day! I can't say enough good things about their responsiveness, professionalism, and quality especially when working with an out-of-town bride. Spice of Life also offered a military discount which my husband and I truly appreciated as it allowed us to spend more money on things like a dessert bar! I would definitely recommend Spice of Life to any bride looking for a traditional wedding meal, appetizers, and desserts that are tasty and beautifully presented.

    They were amazing to work with. Jake the coordinator was very pleasant to work with. His response time to e-mail is amazing. Their whole team was very professional. We had a minor problem with our first catering company as they were double booked the day of our wedding. In March we were left searching for a new catering company. Our venue recommended Spice of Life even though it was more then we had planned on spending for food.
    They did not disappoint. They hosted a delicious brunch for us the day before and an amazing dinner on our wedding day. We had many complements that our food we great. The onsite staff were amazing evening walking down to pictures to bring us our snack tray.
    We could not have asked for better service. Thank you.

    A Spice of Life Catering's reply:

    Thank you so much, Amanda! It is wonderful to hear this feedback. Thanks for letting us celebrate your special day with you! We wish you and Jon all the happiness in the world.

    Dawn and her team were fantastic from the start. My fiance couldn't make the initial food tasting so I brought my elderly father instead. She was so sweet and kind to him. Everyone raved about the food we had for our reception. She helped us pick a menu that would appeal to everyone and even provided a vegan meal for one of my family members. It was within our budget and was high quality. Their staff was really attentive to our guests. At the end of the night, they had placed a picinic basket in the back of our car containing some of the food from our reception. What a special touch! We would highly recommend A Spice of Life!

    We owe the success of our wedding to Spice of Life catering. Dawn Meitz and her staff were on top of everything; professional, organized, helpful and the food was exceptional as well. There were many moving parts to our wedding day and everything came together flawlessly. We couldn't have done it without them and I am profoundly grateful for Dawn's flexibility, expertise and kindness through the planning process.

    We used ASOL for our wedding at Planet Bluegrass and could not have been happier with Dawn and her team. They were kind, accessible and professional, and the food was phenomenal. We first met Dawn at our tasting, which was a fantastic experience. The chefs cooked a phenomenal meal, and Dawn put us all at ease, answering questions about food portions, table and chair rentals, and vegan options for our guests. In the months between the tastings Dawn was always available to answer questions about anything and everything - alcohol quantities, the timeline of events, transportation... you name it! During the wedding our guests could not stop raving about the great service, the food, and how professional her team was. Overall, we would highly recommend ASOL for catering and event planning.

    A Spice of Life went above and beyond to make my wedding go smoothly. My Spice planner ("event specialist") was with me for every step of the planning process. She came with me to my venue about a month before to talk about where all the tables would go, and then on my wedding day I didn't have to tell them again- they were just set up for me. Thank you A Spice of Life for going above and beyond what I asked- it really made a difference.

    This company was excellent to work with, from the tastings to the wedding. We had a gluten-free menu that was unique and superb. Everyone was raving!
