Incredible food and experience
Catering Works was an incredible vendor to work with for our wedding. Kelli was incredibly responsive, accommodating, and flexible (they even helped us come up with a new appetizer idea that wasn't listed on the original list of options!). We loved working with this company, and the food was incredible- our guests could not stop talking about it the next day. 10/10 recommend!

Amazing commitment to customer service
We had to reschedule our wedding twice because of the pandemic. Catering works was patient and dedicated enough to follow through with us the whole time (we didn't even lose our deposit!) and three years after we started talking with them, they absolutely delivered on exactly what we wanted. I would recommend them for any event!

We cannot recommend Catering Works enough!
We used Catering Works for our May 14, 2022 wedding and we could not recommend them enough! Kelli was our point of contact, she was responsive, able to answer all our questions, and her and her team delivered the best catering experience for us and our guests. We received so many compliments on the food for weeks after our wedding and the service was top notch. We took pictures during cocktail hour and were worried we wouldn't get to try any of the apps we had picked out, but we had no need to worry because David with Catering Works hand delivered us plates during photos. He waited on us during dinner while our guests attended the buffet, and he made sure we always had drinks throughout the night. He was so kind, patient and simply amazing! If you are planning a wedding, Catering Works is the way to go!!

Absolutely wonderful caterer
We hired Catering Works for my wedding with only about 3 months until the big day. Hollie, the catering consultant we worked with, was wonderful. She was super responsive and extremely flexible. She helped us navigate something totally foreign to us and fielded frequent emails and questions from me and my parents. She even met with my fiance, my parents, and me at the venue a couple weeks before the wedding to help ensure that our vision was able to come to life and that everyone was on the same page. It was amazing what Catering Works pulled off with only 3 months to coordinate everything. We received so many compliments on not only the food, but the staff as well. They were all extremely friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and there are so many options and price points to choose from when determining your menu. We were also able to supply our own dessert and alcohol for the event while Catering Works staff served and handled all these items for us. If I could do my wedding all over again, I would definitely choose Catering Works. I cannot recommend them enough!!

Great catering
We used catering works for our wedding and wedding cake. The food was fantastic and the service was excellent! Despite us starting planning almost two years in advance, they kept the service costs the same as inflation went up. The food was very tasty. We mostly worked with Kayla who was patient and thorough. She also was always quick to respond. Our guests told us that the food was excellent, in particular the desserts. I would absolutely recommend the company and Kayla.

Wedding changes to become Get together
The Covid-19 situation made a moderate sized wedding not possible for November of 2020. Catering Works who was the venue and the caterer was flexible enough to change the year and character of the the party. The food was great, the help was very responsive to our needs, and the party was fun for all.

Amazing! We absolutely loved Catering Works!
Catering Works catered my wedding with about 300 people in October 2021. They did an amazing job executing my vision! I wanted heavy heavy hors d'oeuvres for the duration of the event which was complimented by a beef tenderloin station and mashed potato bar. Everything was delicious. We had hush puppies stuffed with bbq, mini chicken biscuits, mini chicken bao buns, duck confit with corn cake, tuna wonton crisps, etc. plus roasted oysters. Everyone loved it. We went to five weddings in October (including ours) and Catering Works stood out as the best food we had at any of the weddings by far. I'm so happy we chose them.

Great experience
Kelli and the team at Catering Works were an absolute pleasure to work with. The staff were professional and exceeded all our expectations during our wedding reception. They even made sure to package up to go meals for us to take home post wedding. The food was outstanding and all our guests commented how much they enjoyed it. We would recommend this company to anyone wanting a delicious catered meal.

Food was amazing, staff was even better!
We were so impressed with Catering Works and so grateful we booked them to cater our wedding. They were so flexible and helpful during the planning process. We actually booked them without ever having a tasting because their reviews were so good and we were not disappointed. Everything was great and our guests are still telling us how good the food was. My husband and I opted to eat inside the venue alone during cocktail hour and they were so accommodating. They even brought us up each type of appetizer. All of them were great, but the pork buns were perfect. We did 2 signature drinks and both were amazing. The bartenders were fun and efficient. The also got everyone through the buffet line in great time. At the end of the night, they sent us off with plates of food, boxes of our desserts and a bottle of champagne. It was so nice to have them there to make sure everything ran so smoothly. Hire them! You won't be disappointed.

Catering Works did a great job communicating with my husband and I throughout the process of scheduling our wedding, rescheduling it due to Covid, and a couple menu alterations. On the day of our wedding, the food was delicious and the service was excellent.

The Catering Works Team made us so happy!
Kayla and her team at Catering Works are an elite level catering provider. Kayla will work hard to win your business by giving you options on your occasion's menu. She will clearly communicate pricing and give you a variety of options. It doesn't stop once she's won your business. Kayla really enjoys what she does and it shows in the final product.
Michelle, the Catering Works Event Manager the day-of, helped execute our event perfectly and everything ran so smoothly. Last but not least, our guests were blown away by our wedding day meal. Many saying it was the best meal they'd ever had at a wedding, and my wife and I couldn't agree more.
If you have a big event like a wedding planned, Kayla and her team at Catering Works are the best in the business. They truly care about making the customer happy and they provide support at every step in the planning process. The next time we need catering for an event, there is only one place we'll turn and that's Kayla and Catering Works.

Best Wedding Food Ever!
There’s a reason Catering Works has incredible reviews. Kelli worked with us to create the most incredible meal that fit the gluten free needs of my husband and mother in law. I’ve been to a lot of weddings and have been disappointed so many times. That was not the case at all with Catering Works’ unique menu that made my foodie heart flutter. We also did our cake and flowers through the company. Our (totally gluten free) cake was one of the best cakes I’ve ever had and my father in law was so impressed that he wants to see about getting the same one for his birthday.
We worked with EW on our florals and they were absolutely incredible. He was able to capture the traditional yet whimsical look I was going for perfectly and I couldn’t have asked for anything better.

Perfect Experience!
We had our wedding at The Laurelbrook in June 2021 and could not have asked for a better experience. Through COVID, I think we planned half a dozen different weddings as things kept falling through or changing. We came to Catering Works with fairly late notice and they executed everything without a hitch. We were able to use them for our ceremony and reception venue, food, bar, and flowers. Kelli was phenomenal in helping us through the entire planning process and David anticipated every need we had during the day-of and was ready to help before we even knew what we needed! Our event was beautiful and hassle-free. Guests raved about the food and venue, and the courtyard provides several fantastic backdrops for photos. I would highly recommend Catering Works and The Laurelbrook to anyone planning a wedding or another event in the Raleigh area!

Food & Cake Were Delicious!
We loved working with Catering Works for a number of reasons. First, they were willing to work with our budget and give us options that were close to our preferences. After our tasting, we ended up changing some of the appetizers, there were so many great options it was hard to do! The food was delicious! We also ended up booking a cake with Pastry Works, their affiliated baking company and that was one of the best decisions we made. My husband and I had strong preferences for 2 different flavors, so pastry works accommodated us by doing different tiers with the different flavors. We were extremely pleased! Kelli at catering works was especially wonderful to work with. She was super helpful as we navigated through this process for the first time and was responsive to our emails!

A Wonderful Catering Choice!
We worked with Kelli and her team to create a lovely dinner and cocktail hour appetizer menu for our wedding! One half of our couple and many guests were vegetarian or had food preferences/allergies that we wanted to take into account. Catering Works created a vegetarian-friendly meal that wasn't just mac n' cheese. In fact, most people seemed to love the veggie option we chose! The team was responsive and even helped set up some homemade desserts our family brought. During the event, Catering Works staff were friendly, super helpful, and helped create a really positive and upbeat atmosphere. Our venue has them on a select list of catering companies they wanted to work with and we saw why. CateringWorks was a great choice and we highly recommend them!

Wonderful food and hospitality!
Catering Works didn't only serve AMAZING food (we can't stop talking about their shrimp and grits!!) but, they were also a very kind and helpful team. Kelli was very helpful during COVID rescheduling and protocol changes. She helped me to design the perfect menu, along with making sure I had an appropriate amount of rentals. Right before the ceremony, a thunderstorm surprised us. The Catering Works Team stopped everything to help us move the ceremony inside. Additionally - the servers made sure the Bride and Groom had food and drinks all night. We couldn't have chosen a better caterer!

Delicious Food and Perfect Staff!
Kelli and her staff at Catering Works were amazing for our Wedding Day! They took care of every details...and the food was delicious. We had wine, a champaign toast, appetizers, international food stations, dessert and of course, a delicious wedding cake! Our guests raved at how delicious the food was. Kelli met with me numerous times and the week before the wedding, she and her team were a part of our "vendor coordination" group meeting to ensure all of our vendors and the venue were in sync. Kelli was responsive, friendly, professional and supportive. She was 550% committed to making sure our wedding day was perfect for us and our guests. Thank you, Catering Works!

Working with catering works was one of the single best decisions my husband and I made for our wedding! They're world class service made me feel like I was in a 5 star restaurant at my own wedding! All of the people that I had encounters with were awesome, you could tell that they really loved making people happy. My
representative Kelli was amazing and Rebecca at the wedding was as well. I have no words for the food as it was so awesome I can't find the words to describe it. If you want a full service caterer which we had with catering works (food and linens) look no further; THE FIRST AND LAST STOP SHOULD BE HERE!

Hiring Catering Works was one of the best wedding decisions we made!
Catering Works surprised and delighted us every step of the way for our 11/7 wedding! Due to Covid, we had to find a new caterer on short notice that could do a plated menu for guest safety reasons and I was so worried that I wouldn't be able to find a vendor with about 6 weeks notice OR one that would meet our expectations. Our representative Kelli was amazing with prompt responses, customizing our menu, providing a virtual tasting and setting up all of the details for our wedding. On our wedding day, the staff took amazing care of us and everyone raved about how good the food was. I was so surprised when we unpacked everything to find a beautiful basket with wrapped leftover plates and our desserts along with a bottle of champagne. We felt so taken care of and cannot recommend Catering Works enough!

Catering Works is the best!
Catering Works was amazing! We worked with Sara, who was very responsive and helped us design the perfect menu. We went for a private testing as well as to one of their frequent events and both times the food was top notch. The quality of food did not change for our wedding day. Our guests could not stop raving about the food. Some of our guests had allergies or dietary restrictions and they handled this quite well. In addition, they were nice enough to set aside some food for us and afterwards, there was plenty left over.
