Our heads are still in the clouds dreaming about the food we ate!
We can’t sing the praises of Cloud 9 Caterers any louder! Chef Stephen and his team truly outdid themselves and provided a meal that our friends and family haven't stopped talking about since our wedding day this past August!
Cloud 9 made the planning process extremely easy from start to finish. They were communicative, detail oriented, and professional. The service they provided was done with thoughtfulness, intention, and genuine care. We were psyched to have such incredible food at our wedding, but even more so to know that the people behind the scenes were just as incredible!
We dream about the tomato panzanella salad we had as our starter and the chicken parmesan often and can’t wait until we can have more food cooked by Chef Stephen in the future! We are so grateful to the Cloud 9 Caterers team for making our wedding meal(s) everything we dreamed of and more!
Grazie mille! -

Cloud 9 Caterers made my son and his partner’s wedding unforgettable with extraordinary food, impeccable service, and true Vermont hospitality.
They provided meals for the entire weekend — a mouthwatering BBQ rehearsal dinner, delicious breakfast for those staying at the Inn, a sumptuous lunch for the wedding party, outstanding cocktail hour appetizers, an elegant plated reception dinner, and even late-night tacos — and every meal was a huge success. They seamlessly accommodated dietary needs with creative and flavorful options. Each dish was perfectly prepared, beautifully presented, and showcased the best of fresh, locally sourced Vermont ingredients. Guests said the food was hands-down some of the best they’ve ever had at a wedding.
The cocktail hour was a highlight — guests couldn’t get enough of the gourmet passed appetizers: vegan ceviche, ahi poke, caramelized cauliflower, and meatballs, along with artisanal mezze and cheese & charcuterie boards. Dinner was equally impressive, with perfectly prepared beef tenderloin, vibrant summer ratatouille, and my personal favorite, the exquisite sweet corn agnolotti. The decadent wedding cake — a chocolate ganache with berry anglaise and seasonal berries — was the perfect finish.
Beyond the incredible food, the service was outstanding. From the initial menu planning to the final delivery, the Cloud 9 team’s professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care shone through. Renee, Chef Stephen, and the entire Cloud 9 team went above and beyond with thoughtful touches and seamless execution that made everything run smoothly.
We are forever grateful to Cloud 9 Caterers for helping create such a joyful and unforgettable wedding celebration. Their phenomenal food, beautiful presentation, and true Vermont hospitality exceeded every expectation. We recommend them wholeheartedly — they will make your event truly extraordinary.

Top Notch food and service
Cloud 9 was great to work with! The food was unbelievably good! Communication with them was seamless and professional. They really took care of every detail. Couldn’t have been happier with their service! We had to push dinner back a tad and they didn’t make it stressful at all. They were so calm and on top of things:) thank you! -

The best food ever!
From the moment we got engaged, we knew we wanted Cloud 9 to cater our wedding. Their ability to create delicious food on such a large scale is beyond compare. We had guests coming up to us after both our rehearsal dinner and wedding saying how incredible the food was. Their focus on local and seasonal ingredients was important to us and we felt proud to feed our nearest and dearest with their excellent cuisine.
Hire them! You won't regret it! -

True Farm to table experience
Cloud 9 is hands down the best catering company for any of your event needs. They are fun to be around, but most importantly they are professional and their food is spectacular.
For our wedding, we wanted to give our guests a true Vermont farm to table experience. Cloud 9 provided that and so much more. They are a true all in one catering company. I didn't realize this when we hired them. BUT I quickly found out that having servers, people to pick up after us was SO key to allowing us to enjoy our big day. I didn't have to worry about taking the trash out at the end of our wedding, little things like this help SO much for the bride and groom to enjoy the day.
Stephan and Sarah are such a great team and we are so glad we worked with them. They had great ideas for how we could give subtle nods to my husbands roots (Georgia Peaches!) and they incorporated them nicely.
Thank you Cloud 9! -

Incredible caterer!
Everything about Cloud9 was wonderful - the quality of food, experience of food, the people, the professionalism, and everything from our first email to the cleanup. Would recommend them a hundred times over! -

Cloud 9 were great to work with. It was wonderful to welcome our guests to Vermont by feeding them incredible food sourced locally. One guest said it was the best chicken of his life! Highly recommend. -

Food: amazing. Service: Four Seasons Rate. Creative. We had a pretty unconventional wedding, and I was worried that things wouldn't fit well (timing, structure, etc) I think Cloud 9 played a huge role in making sure that our wedding went off without a hitch, which some could argue was not their responsibility. They really went above and beyond. The food was SO good. I loved working with Cloud 9 Sarah made the planning process fun. Booking with cloud 9 you will not regret. -

We used Luke Stone's food truck, Hindquarter, for the catering of our cocktail hour. Luke was wonderful to work with, both prior to and the day of our wedding. The guests were so happy with the food, both the quality and variety of options offered. The menu selection was extensive, and relied heavily on locally-sourced and seasonal ingredients. We also enjoyed having the beautifully renovated food truck as a photo op for our guests and for our own wedding photos.
We cannot say enough good things about Luke. He was kind, accommodating, and of course an amazing chef. Our guests appreciated the novelty of having a food truck-catered cocktail hour. It was a bit outside of the box, but Luke's expertise made it run without a hitch. -

Cloud 9 is the best. Not only does Sarah Moran know great food, she is an amazing spirit and has serious energy! She kept the whole evening moving. The food was amazing -- people are still talking about it. Hats off to Chef Luke for executing at such a high level for our large wedding. Seriously impressive! The whole crew were wonderful people to work with. They are "do-ers" and that is exactly what you need on your wedding day. -

Cloud 9 has an amazing reputation in our community. Cloud 9 owner Sarah Moran is over the top spectacular. She is knowledgable, fun, organized, energetic, and smart. She is always smiling--in the best way!!! In fact, I attended the first wedding she ever catered many years ago --when there was a major menu change requested just 48 hours before the 300 person event-- and Sarah Moran smiled and adapted beautifully. And Cloud 9 just keeps getting better while remaining responsive, professional and flexible. They are worth every penny they charge and I feel they are reasonable in price. They make amazing food, just spectacular!!! Luke Stone is a superb executive chef. Nicole Cookware (!) is a fabulous pastry chef! Hire them, relax, and enjoy the best! -

From our initial meeting to the actual outdoor event, the entire process was flawless and without angst. Cloud 9 created a fantastic menu, put forth great suggestions, was wonderfully responsive and was there from beginning to end. Sarah Moran and her staff are phenomenal and a pleasure to work with. There's absolutely nothing that would have been done differently. Our only worry was the weather and that too was perfect. It was an elegant and beautiful wedding. Thank you for all the fun in planning and the actual fun of the wedding day! -

The selection of food was super interesting and delicious, and there were many items that suited the occasion. Everything was handled via email, and everything turned out perfectly. We had a drop-off party that did not require staff, and everything came together easily. The staff made this occasion no stress - and I could not be more satisfied with the food, the quality of it, the professionalism and ease with arranging this party. We were from out of town, and I only wish we were closer to use them on other occasions. -

Sarah and crew catered my wedding 20 years ago, so it was a no brainer for Cloud 9 to cater my daughter's wedding 2 years ago. Sarah was amazingly helpful in pulling everything together - not just a fantastic caterer but assisted with organization. She provided wonderful suggestions, recommendations and asked all the right questions to keep us on our game. The food at the reception was soooo good. It was one of the first times that I heard guests talking about the food months later. Totally professional, totally upbeat and totally knowledgeable. Love you, Sarah! -

Their food is amazing and their chef is very creative. Unfortunately, Sarah is not responsive. She was often out of town when we needed her and missed an on-site visit with other vendors. As our wedding approached, I had to get back in touch with them (they never reached out first) and even insisted on meeting before the wedding because, with 1 week to go, we still hadn't talked about a timeline or where everything was going. In hindsight, I wish we'd gone with someone else. This vendor probably works better for those who are utilizing an event manager and not planning their wedding themselves. -
