    They were perfect

    A Taste of Elegance did perfect. Everybody loved the food and we felt the prices were fair, which is a rare thing with wedding services. Their staff was amazing and people are still commenting on how good the food was. We appreciated they thought to give us some leftovers as well!

    Elegance Estates

    The staff at elegance Estates were amazing. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to have our wedding. The food, the venue, the people are all 5 stars. All our guests complemented how smooth everything went, and the attention to detail by the staff.

    Amazing Catering Company

    I can not say enough great things about this catering company. The food was delicious and Kerry was amazing! She was flexible with requests, gave great advice, and was just all around a pleasure to work with. I would definitely hire Taste of Elegance for any other large event I may have!

    Excellent food for our wedding

    Taste of Elegance was great for our wedding. They were on the list of recommended vendors for our venue (The Ospreys in Woodbridge, VA). We set up a free tasting at their location in Stafford, which was a great experience. The food was delicious and they worked with us to create a personalized menu. On the day of the wedding, the staff was professional and took care of everything we needed. We really couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and the food was delicious. The price was super reasonable too. We highly recommend Taste of Elegance!!

    Thank You, Taste of Elegance!

    We are so glad that we chose Taste of Elegance to cater our wedding. At both the in-person tasting and the virtual planning meetings, we were impressed by how considerate, flexible, and detail-oriented everyone was. In addition to helping us plan a fun and unique menu, Taste of Elegance also did a great job assisting us with event planning and handling some of our rentals for the meal. On the day of the wedding, their staff was amazing and the food was delicious. We got so many compliments from our guests about how great their dinners were, and the family style service was perfect for the friendly atmosphere we were trying to create. Plus, hiring them meant that we did not become yet another couple who didn’t have a chance to eat at their own wedding–the staff took great care to make sure we got to enjoy everything.

    Wedding at a winery

    We just had our wedding yesterday at Morais Vinyards, and I have to say I am soooooo happy that I chose taste of elegance to cater our wedding. I planned a wedding in Virginia out of state, and they were extremely accommodating to what I needed. I have to add, that the staff that worked the event were exceptional. They fed us and our family when we were taking pictures, and as I waited to walk down the aisle. Absolutely wonderful catering staff and bar tenders. 10/10!!

    Amazing wedding food - lots of compliments

    We can’t say enough good things about Tracy and her team. From the tasting to our 30 day walk through at the venue, Tracy was extremely knowledgeable and helpful with helping us make decisions for our big day. She and her team ran things flawlessly the day of with both the buffet and the bars, table setup etc, and made sure my husband and I got food/drinks amidst all of the craziness. The quality of food was excellent. Many people don’t remember wedding food but we got lots of compliments!! I overall would recommend this team for any wedding or big event!

    Amazing food!

    Sometimes wedding food can be a bit forgettable... BUT NOT HERE! The ladies at taste of elegance were so kind and so helpful and put on an AMAZING meal. My husband and I were thinking of it days after and were sad we only a few items left over. Our guests are STILL raving about it!

    Kick Ass Team!

    They went above and beyond to do whatever they can to reach satisfactory. When I said I was still worried about something, they made sure they went above and beyond to get me fresh linens and to prep the night before!!! Which is something they’ve never done before and which I will be forever grateful!!

    Thank you so much ladies!!!!

    A dream to work with!

    Amazing, outstanding service, professionalism, and attention to detail! Thanks to ToE, our small, outdoor reception was a huge hit and we received compliments about every single dish, bar service, and the wonderful job done by the staff. Carey and Tracy were a joy to work with and made the planning process that much easier. Thank you all so much!

    Best Caterer in Northern Virginia

    A Taste of Elegance was beyond amazing to work with. Tracy and Carey were both so responsive and answered any and all of my questions throughout the entire process. The food was delicious and our guests are still talking about how great the food was. The whole staff was extremely professional to work with. If you are looking for a great caterer that is organized, professional and makes great food look no further than a taste of elegance.

    A wonderful experience and wonderful food

    A Taste of Elegance was so wonderful in making sure our wedding went just how we planned. The food was delicious and the entire setup looked great. They were on our preferred catering lists for our venue, Harbour View and they did not disappoint. The staff was very kind and everyone made sure everything went smooth. The food was very delicious ! The entire catering process went very smoothly and my husband and I highly recommend them for any wedding or catering needs. Thank you again, A Taste of Elegance- you made our day!

    Delicious! Wonderful Service!

    I LOVED having A Taste of Elegance as my wedding caterer. Unfortunately, I’m a COVID bride and had to cancel my initial wedding plans with 6-days’ notice, but ATOE was truly wonderful about working with me to reschedule (twice!) to a new date. They took extra precautions to keep things safe and sanitary. Their tasting was private, informative, and made us feel like family. Choosing their services was an easy decision. We worked with both Tracy and Carey and they were both very knowledgeable about wedding day events, so they shared ideas with us on how to make the day run more smoothly. We received SO many compliments about how great the food was! They have plenty of options for all dietary restrictions. My absolute favorite were the peppadew peppers, the coconut shrimp, and the cucumber flutes all at the cocktail hour! The linens they used really added the extra “sparkle” to make our room beautiful! I also really appreciated them bringing snacks to Bride and Groom and wedding party while we were taking pictures. It made people smile more and feel more relaxed! Would definitely hire them again in the future for other events.

    Incredible! The BEST!

    Tracy and her team were a huge part of making my daughter's wedding truly memorable. They went above and beyond including serving lemonade and spa water to guests prior to the ceremony, serving appetizers to the wedding party during photos so nobody missed out, making sure the bride and groom and parents all were taken care of, table set up was gorgeous, and the leftovers we were able to keep were packaged, labeled and refrigerated, and they cut and served the wedding cake. Our guests all raved over the food and the service. They relieved my stress too! The entire staff was professional and personable. I can't thank you enough Tracy!

    Delicious food and extreme professionalism

    We loved everything about working with A Taste of Elegance. The food was delicious, the staff was incredible, and pricing was reasonable. At our initial meeting we were able to taste a wide variety of their offerings and the room was decorated with some of their table and decor options to show us those as well. During the planning process they were great to work with and very responsive. They were flexible and willing to work with us when we had to change venues and locations unexpectedly and of course when we had to postpone our wedding. On the day of our wedding the staff was professional and attentive and the event ran smoothly. They brought us appetizers and drinks right after the ceremony and served us our dinners at the reception. Our guests raved about the cajun seafood pasta and we loved the mashed potato bar and beef tenderloin! We would definitely recommend them to our friends.

    Fantastic Caterer

    Our daughter was married on May 19, 2019 at Old House Vineyards and Taste of Elegance was our caterer. We have received so many raves from our guests that we wanted to pass along to the company our heartfelt thanks. We will certainly recommend to each and every person who asks.

    Such a great value! Amazing food! Great service!

    I can say without any hesitation, that I 100% recommend Taste of Elegance for any event--especially a wedding. We'd had a few tastings, but every other vendor seemed to be astronomically high for what we were getting. Taste of Elegance had such competitive pricing, that we had to see if the food was any good. Boy was it!! The wide variety of appetizers and buffet foods we had was incredible--our guests were absolutely raving about the food. So many people came up to us to say how good it was--and how it was literally the best wedding food they've ever had. So.... HUGE WIN!!

    We had a few hiccups with our venue (bartenders that the venue hired failed to show up). We were lamenting that if Taste of Elegance had been in charge of the alcohol as well, we would have had NO PROBLEM whatsoever. But the fact that they were so on top of the service for our event really helped ease any stress brought on by the venue's hiccups. I give the food, the service, and the ease of working with this caterer FIVE STARS!

    I'm so glad we used Taste of Elegance, and I would use them again in a heartbeat!

    Highly recommend!

    I got married at Harbour View 10/10/19

    AMAZING is such an understatement with ATOE! Our guest loved every food item on the menu — even the kids!! The mashed potato bar was such a huge hit!! The wait staff was so accommodating to all our guests and they ensured we were fed, had drinks, and cake! They even took food and drinks to our suites!!! We were sooooooo happy with ATOE and they really made this such a smooth process!!! Would highly recommend them to any bride to be! Carey is RESPONSIVE and fantastic!!! If you want to be stress free on the day of the wedding hire ATOE!
