    Wonderful experience

    I had the opportunity to work with Catering Connections at a recent event and all I can say is they were absolutely outstanding! The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and exceeded all expectations. The staff was professional, punctual, and attentive, making the entire experience stress-free. I highly recommend them and would gladly use their services again.

    Our Perfect Day

    We had Catering Connections deliver their Low Country Boil for our Cape wedding in September 2025, and it was AMAZING! 🦐🌽🔥 Everything was fresh, hot, and full of flavor — the shrimp, sausage, and corn were perfect. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about it!

    Delivery and setup were super smooth, and the presentation was beautiful. It felt like a true coastal feast without any stress. 10/10 recommend — they made our day even more special (and delicious)! 💍✨

    Catering Connections's reply:

    Thank you for the compliments, Katie. We enjoyed spending time with your families and hope to see you again for anniversaries and other family get-togethers!

    Best BBQ & Service!

    We used Catering Connections for our wedding and couldn’t have been happier! We decided to go with their Bayou BBQ menu, and it was absolutely delicious, our guests are still talking about it! The pulled pork and chicken were so flavorful, and everything was perfectly cooked and beautifully presented.

    Laura was incredible to work with — she delivered everything right on time, made sure the setup looked amazing, and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed before she left. Her attention to detail and kind personality made the whole process so easy and stress-free.

    If you’re looking for a professional, reliable, and genuinely caring catering team, Catering Connections is the one! Thank you for helping make our wedding day so special and memorable. 💛

    Catering Connections's reply:

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you and your guests loved the Bayou BBQ menu and that Laura helped make your wedding day smooth, delicious, and unforgettable. We hope to see you again whenever you are here on Indian Pass. :)

    Amazing food & service!

    We used Catering Connections for our wedding in October and absolutely loved working with Colleen and her team! From start to finish, everything was so easy, Colleen made everything clear, she was so helpful and kind in helping me figure out our menu and offering suggestions. Leading up to our wedding, her communication was phenomenal! Our big day arrived and her team was amazing with delivering the food! I knew I didn't have to worry about anything, all of the food was delicious! All of my guests talked about how delicious everything tasted, my husband still talks about the Lasagna! I could not have imagined a better caterer! Thank you Colleen and Catering Connections!

    Catering Connections's reply:

    Sarah, Thank you so much for sharing this, and for letting us be part of your big day! We’re so happy to hear everyone loved the food (we’re thrilled the lasagna was a hit!) and that our team helped make things easy and stress-free for you. Best wishes now and far into the future!

    Colleen and her staff went above and beyond to make our daughter’s wedding a success! From the initial meeting to the wedding day, Colleen was there for there to answer any questions or concerns we had! Colleen also connected us with the baker who created the wedding cake and welcome bag goodies! The brunch she provided the morning of the wedding was perfect and delicious!!! The low country boil was delicious and all the guests shared how wonderful it was! I highly recommend her for any of your catering needs!! Such a sweet person!

    Catering Connections

    Catering Connections did a great job! Communication was constant and clear throughout the process. The staff were all professional and pleasant to work with. And the food was fantastic! We ended up going with the taco bar, and everyone at the reception only had good things to say about all of the food.

    I'd recommend Catering Connections!

    Matthew, we are so happy that everyone enjoyed your choice of our Fiesta Forever Taco Bar. We hope you will call on us again for your anniversary and any other time you are in our area.

    Everything was PERFECT

    EVERYTHING was delicious!!! Food was perfect, margaritas were great – we enjoyed those the next day as well, and I might have dreams about that Limoncello cake. It was great to meet you, as well. Thank you for your part in making our wedding evening so special. Oh, you will definitely be hearing from us again, already planning our next trip!! Again, thank you so much!!!

    Great food, great service!

    Thank you Colleen, and Catering Connections for providing a fabulous, buffet-style meal for our backyard wedding at Grandma's house! Every bite was wonderful.

    Catering Connections's reply:

    It was our pleasure. Thank you for choosing us. We loved being part of your special day and Grandma's backyard was so beautiful that we thought it was a commercial wedding venue when we first arrived! Here's to a future full of love and adventure for you and Ryan.

    great chicken

    Colleen,

    Thank you so much for catering my son's wedding! The food was delicious. We had many compliments on the Chicken Marsala. The only thing I would have done differently was to order extra rolls, lol. I will recommend you to friends and family.

    Thanks again and take care,
    Michelle Tehrani

    Colleen was fantastic

    We got married in PSJ, and as a first time bride, I had a ton of questions. Mrs. Colleen was an absolute godsend. She was thorough and patient, and she was so helpful when we ran into a budget conflict and had to reassess the menu. Her team was exactly on time, the food was DELICIOUS, and she even popped in to check in with me when her team arrived. It was amazing to feel so prioritzed and to know that someone understood the frustrations of planning an event. I will always be grateful to her. Anyone who uses Catering Connections for their event is making the best decision, hands down. I would've liked to have posted photos, but i didnt even have my phone on me on the day of, so I'm sorry, but rest assured, it was worth every penny.

    Catering Connections's reply:

    Thank you so much! We are so thrilled you were pleased with everything! Thank you again and another big congratulations to you!. Xoxo

    Excellent food and amazing service!

    My husband and I traveled from Memphis to St.George Island to have our wedding and Catering Connections was our caterer for both our rehearsal and our wedding night. We could not have asked for better service. Both nights everything was set up with ease and looked beautiful. The staff was so kind and more than helpful throughout the night. The food was TOP NOTCH!! We even froze what leftovers we could to haul it back to TN because we loved it so much. From finding them on an internet search to start communication with Colleen to clean up and saying goodbye every single bit was so easy, professional, and accommodating. I cannot recommend this team enough.

    My daughter was getting married at our beach house in Florida so I was planning the wedding from Georgia. Colleen at Catering Connections made this so easy. She was always available and willing to help and answer any questions I might have. We did a taco bar and margaritas from Quattro Locos and it was delicious and fun. Catering Connections help make this the best day ever.

    Absolutely Delicious!!!

    I work with catering connections as a photographer doing many weddings through out the entire year and they never fail to amaze not only me but also their wedding couples and guests with the amazing food!

    They are professional, organized, and will always provide hot and fresh food! They have also made sure to take care of the vendors when providing food and has fed me well a numerous amount of times! If you are looking for a reliable company to cater your event in the Port Saint Joe or surrounding areas then catering connections is the perfect choice!

    Delicious Food, Great Service

    We worked directly with Colleen at Catering Connections. She was wonderful to work with to develop a menu for our 40-person wedding ceremony and reception. We had their seafood boil and everyone raved about it! She worked with us on pairing the perfect appetizers with it and they were gone within minutes. We would most definitely work with Catering Connections again! Thanks Colleen and team for making our special day even better!

    Small Beach Wedding

    I had a small wedding on the beach. I planned on my own from miles away. Catering Connects was communicative, accommodating, on time, and the food was wonderful.

    Couldn’t ask for more!

    I cannot recommend Catering Connections enough. Colleen was amazing. Not only was she a fabulous vendor but I truly felt like she cared about my whole experience. She asked all the questions to help me create our perfect menu and then helped me tweak it when I needed to budget down without compromising the meal. She answered every single question I had and make so many wonderful suggestions without ever being pushy. They handled everything from dinner to bar ware to my wedding cake. Catering Connections is truly an all inclusive caterer.

    Amazing Food and Service

    Colleen was amazing! She is a consummate professional. She helped walk me through 3 meals for my wedding and she made it so easy. Her food was amazing and everyone raved about it. I would hire her again in a heartbeat and would hope that anyone that sees this would, as well. I'd give her 10 stars out of 5. Please check her out and sit back and relax on your wedding day because she'll do all the work for you and you WILL NOT be disappointed!

    excellent service and product

    I am a wedding planner on Florida's Gulf Coast. I use Catering Connections almost exclusively because of the quality of their catering, punctuality, professionalism, pricing and presentation. They never let me down, bringing the best food around to the table every time. Thank you for always making my job easy!

    Catering Connections made my wedding amazing!

    Colleen and Catering Connections not only catered our wedding but she also helped connect me with other vendors in the PSJ area to help complete everything needed for our perfect wedding. We were able to select the food we wanted from a variety of places which made for a perfect meal. Her servers and bartenders were awesome with our guests. Highly recommend!!

    Catering Connections's reply:

    Melissa, it was our pleasure to help make your day truly special. And we hope to see you again this year when you come down to Cape San Blas for your 1st Anniversary!

    Easy, Breezy and Effortless

    Colleen was great to work with. She catered our whole private retreat of three days and not only made custom menus for us but went above and beyond in service. We did not have to worry about a thing; they were always on time, set everything out, served the buffet, served dessert when we were ready, cleared and put everything away afterward. They would keep out little boxes for people arriving late, so everyone always got something. Everything was thought of. And the food was delicious! Everything complimented each other, from the salad to the dessert. Definitely recommend.

    Thank you so much! We are so thankful you loved everything and we appreciate your kind review! We sure do love our clients! Xoxo

    Old Florida Food

    As the farther of the bride, working with Catering Connections was a pleasant experience. Colleen came through with every promise made. Her servers were very professional and took extra steps to accommodate our special needs.

    Outstanding service but the food fell short.

    Colleen and her team were fantastic. They were there early, set up was great, super attentive and kind; however, the food was a big disappointment. The appetizers were awful. Smallest shrimp cocktail, crab balls were cold and there were chunks of blue cheese just thrown in with the fruit. I've never seen anything like it.
    On the plus side, chicken marsala, roasted potatoes and mac and cheese were very good but that's where it ends. The lettuce edges in the salad were brown. The asparagus looked like it was poured out of a can (thinnest I've ever seen, totally over cooked and tasted terrible). The beef tips in red wine reduction was like stew meat. The rolls were dry and overcooked. There was no butter for the rolls or salt and pepper. When my husband and I walked up to be served first, I was completely embarrassed this was the food I was serving my guests who many traveled quite a distance to attend. It took every bit of power not to lose it right then and there. I am not a picky eater and rarely complain but this was really awful. This is the first bad review I've ever written and it's with a heavy heart that I do, but I feel it is necessary.

    Catering Connections's reply:

    Hi Nicole. I'm glad our staff met your expectations. However, I'd like to address a few things you described in your review.

    The first thing I would like to address is your complaint that the "crab balls were cold." The contract you signed with us in December 2023 and confirmed upon your final payment just 7 days before your wedding stated your ceremony would begin at 5:00pm with cocktail hour starting at 5:30pm. Our staff had plated the miniature crab cakes and rémoulade cups based upon the contracted time for cocktail hour, but your party delayed service for a little over an hour and a half. If we had continued to keep the crab cakes warm for that extended period of time, they would have dried out and crumbled, losing all moisture.

    The contract you signed with us was not for "Shrimp Cocktail."
    The contract you signed was for "Shrimp Shooters - 1 per person" which are: 1 medium-sized shrimp in a shot glass with cocktail sauce per person. Your contract also specified "Imported Fruit and Cheese Platter. The platter consisted of Italian Asiago, Italian Fontina, and British Blue Stilton cheese. We have photos of the Fruit & Cheese Platter that was served that evening containing all three cheeses and assorted fruit.

    In reference to your comment regarding the salad, I personally procured the fresh lettuce and there were no brown edges served during the buffet. You must be referring to the salad that we boxed up at the end of the event which you would have seen the next day.

    With regard to the main meal, I can assure you ALL of our ingredients are fresh and NOT out of a can as you described the asparagus with garlic and lemon zest. I personally tasted the beef tips at the end of the reception and was very pleased that the meat melted in my mouth. If you felt the rolls were dry and overcooked, we were unable to serve them at the contracted time and attempted to keep them warm for the extra 1.5 hours that you ran late. You did not contract with us for butter nor salt and pepper; therefore, these items were not provided.

    I personally removed the plates from your bridal table where you and Larry ate and was pleased to see that your plates were empty of everything you had selected from the buffet table, including the shrimp shooters, the crab cakes and fruit/cheese. Before my team left the venue, I spoke with your mother to let her know the extra food was boxed and waiting in the kitchen for the family to take with them. Your mother thanked me and said everything was delicious.
