    Amazing! As Always....

    I knew about Champagne Taste because my brother used them for his wedding. There is a huge selection of food to choose from and help with any dietary restrictions. The food was amazing! Wedding guests complimented the food during and after the wedding. The staff is efficient and attentive. You will not be disappointed.

    Fantastic!

    Whitney was great! She was able to customize our wedding package at a reasonable price. We had a couple tastings and all the food was fantastic, our menu had slight differences then what we chose but the food was amazing so it didn’t matter at the end of the day! At the reception, her staff were on point with bartending and food. Thank you for the fantastic experience, I highly recommend Whitney and her team for your events!

    Amazing Experience

    We had an amazing experience using Champagne Taste Catering! Whitney, the owner, has created the perfect balance of great quality food at a very fair price point. She was able to customize our menu to perfectly meet our wedding needs. Her staff the day of the wedding was super professional and accommodating. We also had an amazing time at our two tastings leading up to the wedding. I would not hesitate to recommend Champagne Taste to any bride planning a wedding!

    Everything you want in a Wedding/Event Caterer!

    As a couple that very much enjoys good food, we knew how important it was that we find a caterer that matched our passion! Oh did we find the one and everyone agreed! The professionalism shown from Whitney in the initial tastings, all the way through the night of the wedding was top notch! She provided all the Southern classics (shrimp & grits & pulled pork) for the Bride, taco station, carving and seafood stations, AND was also very agreeable in adding Turner Ham from the groom's family recipe for the ham biscuits! If food is important for your wedding I wouldn't recommend anyone other than Champagne Taste Catering! Thank you again!

    A pleasure!!

    Whitney was wonderful to work with! We originally planned rich warm foods for our menu. A heat wave hit the week of the wedding and Whitney graciously shifted many of our dishes to cool foods! The watermelon salad, chicken kabobs and pecan crusted salmon were perfection on a 95 degree day! Our guests loved the light and fresh menu and complemented us all night! We also had diet restrictions, including the bride. Whitney kept track of them all and handled it flawlessly! We loved working with Champagne Taste!

    Best-ever wedding food!

    Champagne Taste served the best wedding food I have ever had. The appetizer and buffet items were unique and delicious. The appetizers on the edible spoons were amazing, as were the desserts (no traditional wedding cake). I cannot recommend them enough!

    If you want your guests to love your food look no further

    Champagne Taste is top notch! Whitney was super fun to work with. We had a variety of dietary restrictions and she was very accommodating. We loved creating our menu with her and we received many compliments about the food from our guests. She also helped us with getting a rental quote and she even called and updated the order when we needed to.

    Amazing from start to finish!

    Words cannot express how grateful I am to Whitney and the Champagne Taste team! From our tasting to the end of the reception, everything was truly incredible. Uur friends and family have absolutely raved about how delicious all of the food was. They were incredibly accommodating of a variety of serious allergies and helped us decide on a menu where all of our guests, regardless of dietary restrictions, had multiple options from happy hour to dinner. At the end of the night, they provided us with a large cooler bag full of individually packaged food and snacks, so my husband and I were able to enjoy a late-night snack after a hectic day. Whitney was just lovely to work with and is incredibly responsive via email – she kindly guided us through a handful of 11th hour emergencies (like surprise vegan guests) or when I realized a few months before our wedding that we hadn’t arranged for rentals. I mostly appreciate her flexibility during the planning process, as COVID threw some less-than-ideal circumstances our way! Her staff was professional and kind and our plated dinner service went off without a hitch. Champagne Taste provided top notch service and we are so glad to have worked with them for our special day – I cannot recommend them highly enough!

    Whitney was the first vendor I met with and I am so glad I met with her first. She recommended all of her favorite vendors and made sure I got the best service from beginning to end. She treated me like her best friend and first priority and that made working with her a true pleasure. Her team was also the best! They made sure I had the best night of my life.

    Food was probably the most important thing at my wedding and let me tell you, Whitney and her team hit it out of the park. It’s been a year since my May 2019 wedding, and people still rave about how amazing my food was! My husband and I knew Champagne Taste was the one for us as soon as we met Whitney and tasted her food. She was honest, realistic, and flexible, which I appreciate. She also works closely with my reception space, the Bolling Haxall House. Shoutout to my wedding planner, Michelle (One Sweet Day in May) for finding Champagne Taste!

    Whitney and her team at Champagne Taste were truly a godsend! We had a brunch buffet which isn’t the wedding “norm” so our menu had to be different than the standard chicken/fish/beef menu. Whitney put together a variety of foods for us to try at our tasting (with mimosas, of course!) and we loved it all. Throughout the process, Whitney was very communicative of what she needed from us and she was so, so helpful in coordinating all of our rentals from Classic Party Rentals. She even helped us source some last-minute carafes for our mimosa bar. At the wedding itself, the buffet display was gorgeous and they knocked it out of the park with our mimosa and Bloody Mary bars. We were so happy with how everything turned out. I highly recommend using Champagne Taste for any event—you won’t be disappointed!

    My husband and I were very impressed with Champagne Taste for our wedding day! The servers were very attentive and it was obvious teamwork is very important to them! Most importantly, the food was delicious and they even packed up the leftovers so neatly for us to enjoy later. We received so many compliments from our guests on how delicious the food was! You will not be disappointed!

    Whitney Fero is able to provide exceptional food and service at an affordable price. I received catering estimates from 8+ other companies, and Champagne Taste Catering was by far the best price and included a ton of extras. My fiance and my parents met Whitney for a tasting and we all are still raving about the food! Whitney is outgoing and energetic and it's obvious she really loves what she does. Unfortunately, we had to change our venue and had to use their required caterer, but Whitney will be my first choice for future events!

    Whitney is amazing! She was so accommodating and really gave us the freedom to craft the menu we envisioned for our wedding day. The food was amazing and the service was excellent! I highly recommend the sweet potato biscuits, lamb meatballs, goat cheese crostini, gouda chicken, and beef tenderloin - everything is SO good. Thank you Whitney and staff!

    From the very first tasting, I knew Whitney & Champagne Taste were the right choice for my daughter’s wedding. Whitney has such a fun personality and was totally open to working with us on the menu and budget. My daughter and I looked into several catering options and by far, Whitney allowed the most flexibility and was very reasonably priced. We had butlered hors d'oeuvres at cocktail hour and a buffet meal during the reception. The food was excellent! Her staff was friendly and helpful and even ensured the bride & groom were served dinner right away. At the end of the night, Champagne Taste packed up the leftovers and also made a wonderful picnic basket for the bride & groom. Be sure to get the lamb meatballs and chicken with smoked gouda sauce. The guests are still raving about them! You will NOT be disappointed!

    Whitney was amazing!!!! She met with us and answered multiple emails and questions, helped us with the rentals (many of which were last minute), and even sent us to the BEST day of coordinator. She worked with our budget, and was absolutely amazing. People were raving out the food the entire wedding!! And she handled some random guest requests that were unknown to me, without even letting me know. I HIGHLY recommend her for your event, and I would hire her in a heartbeat if I ever have another event!

    Whitney Fero and her team were incredible to work with! I planned my wedding long distance, and Whitney was so accommodating for this! She answered all of my questions and emails very quickly and was very accommodating in getting us scheduled for a tasting on the one weekend we were in town! Our guests could not stop talking about how amazing the food was, and she even brought appetizers out for the wedding party to eat while we stayed outside to take all of the post ceremony pictures! They even boxed up a nice picnic dinner for my husband and I to take with us at the end of the night! They also boxed up the other leftovers and let my parents take them home!

    As soon as my daughter became engaged, the "To Do" list started to form. A friend recommended Champagne Taste Catering as a possible caterer. I contacted the owner, Whitney Fero, to discuss our ideas for the reception. I was immediately impressed with Whitey's responses to my questions and her professional advice regarding a reception for 200+ guests. After speaking with Whitney, I made a tasting appointment. The day of our tasting we tried appetizers, entrees and accompaniments. The food was absolutely delicious and plentiful. We even had leftovers to take home. Whitney made our tasting very personal and never made us feel rushed. There was no question - Champagne Taste Catering would cater our daughter's wedding. Over the next ten months, Whitney met us at the wedding venue, answered numerous questions and provided us unending support and advice. The wedding day was here! Whitney and her staff arrived 3 hours prior to the wedding and did not stop until the wedding reception ended. We really appreciated the way Whitney made the newlyweds her priority. Immediately after the ceremony she brought them their signature cocktails while we were taking pictures. She also personally checked on them when they arrived at the reception tent. Her staff also made sure that the wedding party table was served first during the family style dinner. After the reception Whitney and her staff prepared a wonderful take-home bag with each of the foods and desserts from our menu. Our guests were so complimentary about Whitney and her staff, the amazing food and the incredible customer service. Our guests told us that this was the best food and service they have ever had at a wedding reception. This personal and professional service made us feel like a friend had helped us cater the wedding. We were blessed to find Whitney Fero. I would highly recommend Champagne Taste Catering and Whitney Fero for any of your catering needs. She is one in a million!!!

    Champagne Taste Catering did an amazing job catering my daughters wedding this past Saturday! We had 144 guests and heard numerous comments that the appetizers were the best they ever had. Scallops and shrimp were very fresh and substantial, crab cakes, prosciutto wraps with melon & asparagus were delicious too. Try the edible caprese spoons for a real treat. For dinner we chose the mixed greens with blue cheese,walnuts and berries, beef tenderloin and chicken marsala, roasted potatoes and green beans. Everything came to the table hot and again our guests commented on how delicious everything was. The staff was friendly, professional and accomodating and had everything running like a well oiled machine. Despite the heat following the outdoor ceremony the staff was ready for guests as they entered the reception even offering glasses of prosecco and cold beer to adult guests. It was a nice touch and I want to thank Whitney for the idea. It slowed the rush to the two bars and guests could easily chose another cocktail if desired. Finally the staff picked up everything and I never noticed anything while they worked proving how efficient they are. I would highly recommend Champagne Taste and I hope to have another occasion to hire them again.

    We hired Whitney to cater the homecoming/reunion party for my husband's fraternity. He wanted to impress and Whitney sure did! The food was fabulous, the service impeccable, the presentation inspired! Everyone was so impressed that we still hear about the fabulous party at our house.
    Whitney has fabulous suggestions for the menu and has a clear mind for logistics and organization. Everyone had a great time including me because I didn't have to worry about a thing.

    Whitney and the team at Champagne Taste are absolutely GREAT! Everything they have tastes like nothing you have had before and our guests left with full bellies and huge smiles on their faces! The dishes were second to none and the choices will leave you in awe. Extremely accommodating to gluten allergies and the friendliest and most reasonably priced service.

    Champagne Taste was amazing for our wedding. I have a food allergy that is challenging for events like this, and I always feared not being able to eat the food at my own wedding. Whitney was incredible to work with, paid specific attention to the food I could eat and couldn't eat and even made dairy-free southern biscuits for me to be able to eat at our reception. I could eat EVERYTHING that they served, which was amazing, because they made everything allergy-friendly for me! I had no fears of having an allergic reaction at my own wedding reception. Plus, guests could not tell the difference and raved about the food. I would highly recommend them to anyone!

    I cannot speak highly enough of Whitney and her team. Not only is the food DELICIOUS (my guests are still raving about it, a month later!), but they are highly skilled at the actual event management side of catering. Everything ran smoothly and our guests felt well attended to every second of the evening. You certainly cannot go wrong choosing Champagne Taste!
