    Thank you Food for the Soul!

    We worked with Food for the Soul for both catering and wedding planning, and hiring Tina was one of the best decisions we made during the entire wedding process.

    About five weeks before our wedding, our original venue unexpectedly received a cease and desist order from the county and we suddenly had to find a new venue and reorganize everything on very short notice. Up until that point we had been planning everything ourselves, but Tina stepped in and took over planning and coordination, and it completely changed the experience for the better.

    She helped us secure a new venue, coordinated vendors, rentals, timeline, setup, and communication, and made the entire process organized and manageable during what could have been a very stressful situation. She was extremely communicative, organized, and always mindful of our budget while still helping our vision come to life.

    On the wedding day, everything ran perfectly. The timing, setup, coordination, and transitions were smooth and we were able to just show up and enjoy the day instead of worrying about logistics. That alone made it worth it.

    The food was also incredible. We received many compliments from our guests, and several people told us it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding. Tina, Rob, and the entire team did an amazing job with the buffet and service.

    Tina also helped connect us with other great vendors and made the whole process feel like a one-stop shop for everything we needed — rentals, florals, photography, and more. She was organized, responsive by email and phone, and clearly very experienced with Maui weddings.

    We are incredibly happy we chose Food for the Soul for both planning and catering and would highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding on Maui. If you want a day where everything is taken care of and your vision comes to life without stress, Tina and her team are the way to go.

    Best food ever!!!

    We are still raving about the food at our Maui wedding! Every dish was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and perfectly suited to our wedding style and location. From appetizers to the main course and late-night snacks, the flavors were incredible, and every detail was executed with care and precision. Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the variety, quality, and freshness of the food. The team was incredibly kind and attentive, making us feel completely cared for throughout the entire process. Tina, the owner, made us feel so welcome and special during our tasting, guiding us with her expertise and genuine warmth—it truly set the tone for the whole experience. On our wedding day, the service was seamless, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy every bite. We highly recommend this catering team for anyone who wants outstanding food, beautiful presentation, and genuinely kind, attentive service. They helped make our Maui wedding day unforgettable and absolutely delicious!

    Seamless, wonderful experience

    Tina at Food for Soul was a pleasure to work with from start to finish! We are based on the mainland and hired her as our day-of coordinator and caterer for our wedding in Kapalua. She offered planning help to us for multiple calls leading up to the wedding which was so helpful due to her extensive experience planning weddings in Maui. Tina was very kind and helpful in guiding us through the process, bringing every single detail to our attention (a lot of things which had never thought to think of!). She genuinely wanted us to have a great experience and we ended up having the most special, perfect wedding! We did the Hawaiian buffet and it was so incredibly delicious, perhaps the best wedding food I've ever had (and they weren't shy on portions). The appetizers were also plentiful and so delicious! Her team was very professional and accommodating. If you're looking for a planner and caterer, look no further, you are in good hands with Tina & Food For The Soul! :)

    Best wedding ever

    We cannot say enough good things about Tina and her team from Food for the Soul Maui. We were planning a wedding at a venue we have never been to from thousands of miles away and a 6 hour time difference. Tina always made us feel like we were in good hands and she had everything under control. She gave us homework which helped us stay on track and everything leading up to the big day was effortless. We had a walk through the day before our wedding and Tina already had everything planned out and ready to go. The day of the wedding was absolutely seamless. Tina gave us space to get ready and enjoy the day but made sure we were on track and well fed! She was there if we needed anything last minute. Every guest said it was the best wedding they've ever been too. The setup was more perfect than we could have imagined. Thanks to Tina and her team for taking a dreamy venue and somehow making it even more magical.

    We HIGHLY recommend Food for the Soul Maui, Tina, and all of her crew for your wedding. We look forward to using them at our anniversary parties in the future!

    xoxo

    Amazing, Delicious, No Crumbs!

    Tina and her team are amazing! She was very helpful planning out the different meal options (steak and fish) and making sure that we felt very involved despite being so far away. She was flexible when it came to changing menu items and cake flavors. We had a tasting at their kitchen and met Dillon (who was onsite on our wedding day)! Everything was amazing and people kept commenting on how great the food (appetizers to cake and ice cream sundae bar) was!

    Amazing food and wedding coordinating experience!

    Tina and her Food For The Soul team were phenomenal!! We hired them for wedding coordination and catering for our reception. The food was amazing! It was served buffet style for dinner and passed appetizers for our happy hour. The food was hot and the service was great! All of our guests were raving about how good the food was! It was delicious! And all the staff were friendly and professional. So kind!

    Tina was super organized and has a good system to her planning. She was available for any questions and helped guide our decision making. She suggested excellent vendors and is a wealth of knowledge. I felt at peace knowing Tina was coordinating everything!!

    Anyone considering wedding catering and/or wedding coordination should hire Food For The Soul! You won’t be disappointed!

    Tina + FFS Nō ka 'oi

    Tina is the best! My husband and I were Lahaina residents and planned to marry in We were fortunate to meet Tina by chance while touring the Olowalu Plantation House, which ultimately became our venue. Right away, we could tell Tina was the perfect person to help us navigate planning the weeding. She is kind, calm and attentive. Tina never tried to push us to any particular vendor and helped us work within our budget.

    Unfortunately, my husband and I lost our home and everything else in the Lahaina fire in August 2023, less than 2 months out from our wedding. Tina not only helped us immediately to reschedule the wedding and coordinating with vendors, she was a huge emotional support for us as we grappled with the loss of our community. Planning a wedding once is stressful enough. Planning a wedding twice after losing everything in a fire was something we could not have done without Tina.

    We cannot say enough kind words about Tina. She is a calming presence on the day-of, we never had to worry about anything, and she was always there with a smile. I cannot imagine my wedding without her involvement and by the end, she became like Ohana to us. We are forever grateful for her kindness and making our wedding even better than we could have imagined.

    P.S. FFTS also catered the wedding and the food was spectacular! I still have guests telling me how it was the best wedding meal they ever had!

    Will and Beth I was blessed to be a part of your wedding day. We certainly weathered some stoms together. The resilance the two of you had was inspiring. Blessed to call you friends. Must connect soon.

    Tina is Beyond Expectations!

    We cannot recommend TINA and FFTS highly enough! From the moment we hired her as our day-of coordinator, she went above and beyond to ensure our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more. Her personalized attention and genuine care made us feel like we were her top priority.

    Not only did she handle the logistics seamlessly, but she also provided invaluable advice and support throughout the planning process. She helped us stay within our budget while still creating a magical experience that felt incredibly special.

    We also chose FFTS catering, and the food was nothing short of spectacular! Our guests are still raving about the delicious dishes and impeccable presentation.

    What truly stood out was the way Tina became like family to us. Her warmth, encouragement, and countless hugs made the whole experience even more memorable. We felt completely at ease knowing she was by our side every step of the way. If you're looking for a wedding planner who is dedicated, talented, and truly passionate about her work, look no further than Tina. She turned our vision into reality, and we're forever grateful!

    Look no further!

    FFTS was more than we could have expected! I reached out to several catering companies and FFTS hands down had the best menu selection and pricing. We had appetizers and plated dinner which were all so delicious! The filet mignon and Mahi Mahi, was high end restaurant quality food, in no way was this typical "wedding food". Our guests were amazed by the staff service and food presentation/quality. We had guests that do not like steak and/nor medium rare steak but they said they actually enjoyed the steak and would have it again!
    Thank you for making our wedding day more than we could have imagined and providing our guest and us with an experience of a lifetime!
    Mahalo!

    Our wedding guests won't stop talking about our delicious food!

    We were thrilled to hear how much our wedding guests LOVED the food! From appetizers to main courses, Food for the Soul provided mouth-watering meals. Our only regret is that as bride and groom we didn’t get to really sit and enjoy everything—but that’s to be expected. If you hire FFTS, make sure to try everything because it’s not to be missed! Tina was absolutely wonderful to work with throughout the planning process and even assisted with our rentals. The FFTS team made our wedding day seamless, and we highly recommend their services!

    The Best Food!

    All our wedding guests rave about how the food was amazing and wished they had more to eat! I agree and loved how Food for the Soul had amazing food and the wait staff were so attentive and helpful! I highly recommend their catering and doing a tasting so you can try it for yourself. I love that they had many options at different price points making it affordable but also having great taste.

    The best wedding planner!

    You must hire Tina and Food for the Soul for your wedding planning and catering! She made all our wedding dreams a reality.

    From day one, Tina was always on top of everything. My partner and I both have very busy jobs, but Tina was always organized and helped alleviate any stress. Every call we had with her made us more excited as the wedding approached. She has excellent relationships with her vendors, all of whom rightfully adore her.

    On the wedding day, Tina and her entire Food For The Soul team executed everything flawlessly. Her team took all the stress away. We were able to enjoy every single moment of our wedding day.

    All our guests raved about the food. Some of our favorites were the pork sliders, coconut shrimp, and ahi tar tar for appetizers. The Maui Waldorf salad was so refreshing. And for the entrees, we loved the filet mignon! We also had an array of desserts that I couldn’t get enough of.

    We consider ourselves so lucky to have found Tina and Food for the Soul. It is so important to find a wedding planner that you trust. Tina made the entire process and wedding day itself so magical. To top it off, she has a heart of gold. For all your wedding planning and catering needs, there is no one else like Tina and Food For The Soul.

    Tina and Food For the Soul made our wedding dreams come true!

    Tina and her team were INCREDIBLE! The two biggest compliments we received about our wedding was how delicious the food was and how amazing and helpful the staff was. All thanks to Tina and her team! We got married at the Pineapple Chapel, a place we had never even seen before, and Tina made the entire process seamless and completely stress free from the start. Her knowledge about the area and relationships with different vendors were so helpful to us. We wish we could do it all over again!

    Thank you!!!

    Tina and her team are soo amazing! I am so glad that I had the chance to work with her for both planning and catering our wedding. We got married at Olowalu Plantation House and she was so knowledgeable regarding the venue and all of the vendors that we worked with! She went above and beyond our expectations and really made sure that the day was everything that we ever hoped for (even with a very particular bride haha)! She was always so patient and truly one of the sweetest people we’ve ever met! She made the process so smooth and easy for us and we are so grateful that we found her 🤍

    And the food was amazing!! We didn’t have the opportunity to taste our food prior to our wedding day due to planning from out of state and we got so many compliments from our guests saying how great everything was!

    The best caterer in Maui!

    We had the pleasure of working with Tina as a day of coordinator and using her company Food for the Soul as our caterer. We cannot say enough good things about our experience with both! Tina helped us with everything on property and made everything run so smooth the day of. Because we are from Colorado my husband and I did not make it out to Maui before the day of our wedding to taste test any food, which was one of the things we were most concerned about. Tina took the time to walk us through everything over the phone and offered fabulous suggestions, answered all of our questions, and helped build us the most delicious menu. Everything tasted absolutely incredible from the passed appetizers, to salad and main dish, to our bite sized desserts. Our guests could not stop talking about how good everything was for DAYS after our wedding. We could not have dreamed of a better experience! I would recommend Tina and Food for the Soul to everyone I know and cannot thank her and the staff enough for making our wedding day so perfect!

    Best Ever !!

    I had food for the soul cater and plan my wedding on December 2022 and it was the best decision I have ever made. Tina and her group were the best ! My whole wedding party fell in love with how nice and helpful all the staff were. Noah was quick to problem solve any issue that came up. Alana was a queen of organization. She made sure everyone was on time and things were going as planned. Tina is a mastermind of wedding planning and made sure to take care of every detail. Also the FOOD!!!!!!!! It was the best I have ever had. All my guest would not stop complimenting how delicious the food turned out. If you are looking for an expert wedding planner and best food in Maui, Tina and her group is the way to go! Thank you again to everyone! We will definitely be back to do a reunion in the future.

    Incredible

    This review is far overdue but I cannot recommend Tina and Food For The Soul enough!! First off, we started planning our wedding back in 2018/2019 and were scheduled to have in 2020. During the initial planning process, Tina was SO helpful at keeping us on schedule and giving recommendations. She gave us recommended vendors, we told decided on a budget, then she helped narrow down our options which was super helpful because we did everything from CA without ever going to Maui and had no clue what to do on our own. She is a wealth of knowledge and has amazing relationships with so many great vendors on Maui. This truly showed also when we had to postpone not once, but twice. Tina helped us move ALL our vendors back to 2022, and with minimal changes to our budget which we could not believe. She made the planning process a breeze I could not have done this without her. Fast forward to our wedding day, we had 50 people and used FFTS for catering and rentals. The food, omg, the food was incredible. We had luau style buffet with a full roasted pig. Rob and his team CRUSHED IT on the food. It was not your typical wedding food. This was better than you'd get at a nice restaurant. Our guests raved about it and I'm still craving those meatballs 5 months later. Tina executed everything perfectly the day of our wedding. Little touches of decor that I didn't even think to plan on just magically appeared, like when I ordered a box of glow sticks for the dance floor, I expected them to come out in the Amazon box because I didnt plan anything for it, but Tina even had them out in a gorgeous wooden bowl for people to take. Its the little things that you don't think of, that she will absolutely do behind the scenes so you can just focus on enjoying your day. Tina and Rob are the KINDEST people to work with and are SO GOOD at what they do. I am so thankful we booked with them.

    Exceptional Service

    We couldn’t have been happier with the services we were provided by Tina, Rob and the rest of their staff. The food was amazing! They were organized, professional, accommodating, detailed, friendly and very knowledgeable. In addition to the catering services we also used Tina as our wedding coordinator. Tina and Rob made our wedding day magical as well as flawless. Not to mention they were also fun to work with! We were so pleased with how everything came together! Thanks for sharing and celebrating our wedding with us. If you are looking for top notch service Food For The Soul and staff are the way to go! I highly recommend them! Thanks again for everything!

    Couldn’t have asked for a better service!

    Let’s be honest, most wedding dinner food isn’t the greatest, but ours was so so so good! Coming from the mainland we didn’t get to try our food or even know someone who personally had tried it, so we relied heavily on reviews and that’s why we want to leave such a great review. The service was phenomenal and on top of everything. The food was beyond what we could’ve expected and we NEED the mash potatoes recipe!! For anyone looking to get any type of event catered, we would 100% recommend Food for the Soul!! We wish we lived in Maui so we could get another event catered! Thanks for making our small cozy wedding that much better.

    Truly a first class experience!

    Truly an exceptional experience from start to finish! We are the type of couple that need to be managed due to ridiculous work schedules and very little free time. Tina is all over it and does an incredible job making sure everything is moving forward without being pushy. Truly knowledgeable in her field with a great deal of resources throughout the island. The venue we picked although incredibly beautiful was a logistical nightmare for the average team. We did not have a kitchen, prep area, power etc. The perfect storm for complete failure… Not for this team. The set up and breakdown were executed perfectly! Chef Rob was able to put out food we didn’t think would be possible without a commercial kitchen handy which speaks volumes as I’ve managed some of the largest restaurants in the world. The bar staff and service team were attentive, welcoming and went above and beyond! Truly a first class experience! Love you Tina, Chef Rob and the rest of the team! You made sure our day was beyond special!!!!

    A Fairytale Come True!

    I simply cannot express the amount of gratitude we feel for Tina, her husband, her daughter, and the entire Food For The Soul Crew! From the beginning, Tina was attentive, communicative, comforting, and understanding.
    Tina is a true rock star. From coordinating and catering, she knows it all. She offered excellent advice and helped make our menu choice! Our guests raved about the rosemary chicken and the appetizers were so delicious! The sundae bar was a huge hit!
    The staff was excellent, making sure I had a drink in hand. They checked on us frequently, making sure everything was okay, and it was!
    She made my vision come to life! My theme was Snow White and she made that happen! Truly! When I saw what she and her crew had done, I cried tears of joy. It was better than I had ever imagined. The red flowers, the table settings, all my crazy ideas were there.
    Thank you Tina for the most beautiful wedding.

    the best we could have asked for, beyond expectations

    Tina was a lifesaver in so many ways, helping us every step of the way! Our venue (Olowalu Plantation House) required a day-of wedding planner and we were already eyeing FFTS (Food For The Soul) for catering so it was a perfect fit. Tina made the process fun and manageable, helping to relieve all of my stress about planning!

    We had a food tasting prior to our wedding date and were so in love with the food that my husband could not stop talking about it prior to us getting married! Everything was fresh and delicious at our tasting, but tasted even better on our wedding day. I was surprisingly on top of planning the big items way ahead of time, Tina was able to help me fill in the gaps and asked questions I hadn’t even thought of from the layout and tableware, to the timeline and the setup for our shrine to our friend who has passed. We also had Tina’s help with booking the rentals we decided on, and almost everything else involved in the wedding planning. Her advice and recommendations were so valuable for someone only doing this once to make sure it went smoothly according to our vision. We unfortunately had to arrive late to our wedding, after almost not being able to make it at all, and Tina was there every step of the way to make sure our arrival was a surprise for our guests. The FFTS team even stayed later so that we could enjoy the most of our big day. I cannot thank them enough for making our wedding not only happen but go so perfectly for us.

    We assembled the perfect team for our big day at the Olowalu Plantation House on Maui, ending up with 35 guests there to help us celebrate our love. We had beautiful table arrangements and leis from Val at MauiWeddingFlowers.net, delicious appetizers and dinner from FFTS, a great tone set by DJ Dan throughout the day, and priceless help from Tina at FFTS every step of the way. The moment was captured in stills by our friend Cat, and on video by Andre at All Time Media. Despite many setbacks leading up to our big day, our team were all on the same page and able to accommodate last minute changes.

    We couldn’t have asked for a better day to become one, so thank you all so much for being a part of making that happen. I cannot recommend FFTS enough for your wedding day or any event, big or small, you will not regret it!

    Mahalo Mr and Mr Bloom for choosing FFTS to be a part of your wedding day. It was the best Grand Entrance ever surprising your guests. Wishing you all the best in your journey together.

    Best Service, Best Experience, Best People You Can Hire!

    My husband and I hired both Tina and Rob to manage our June 2022 Maui wedding planning and provide the catering for our event - they are both the absolute best and we were SO happy with that decision! Tina is the perfect combination of easy-going and organized, she will keep you on top of all of the decisions that need to be made, meet with you to discuss all details big and small throughout the course of your engagement, and will make your actual wedding day a breeze. She is exactly the kind of person that you want in charge of one of the most important days of your life! As far as the food goes, 10/10 chef Rob and his team are amazing. Our guests raved about the food, from the appetizers to the main course. My husband and I still daydream about the coconut prawn appetizers! You will not regret the decision to hire Food for the Soul Maui for your special event, we wish we could do it all over again!!

    Best caterer and wedding planner

    We are so grateful and happy that we hired Food for the Soul for our catering and for our day of wedding planner. Tina was our wedding planner and her husband Rob was the head chef. They make such a great team and are incredible people. We got to know Tina very well during the months of planning leading up to the wedding. Even though we hired her for a day of planner, she was helping us organize and giving us vendor recommendations throughout the whole process. It far exceeded our expectations of what we thought a day-of-wedding planner was. Tina knew of every detail to cover and you can tell she and her husband have a lot of experience doing lots of weddings. On the day of our wedding we were able to relax and enjoy everything because Tina and her assistant took care of everything from setting up and organizing the vendors, making sure all of our guests were taken care of, making sure my husband and I set aside alone time right after the ceremony, setting up all of our tables, ensuring all of our vendors were paid and received their tips and cleaning up everything after the wedding. She and her assistant were truly angels and we wouldn’t have been able to have the wedding we did without them! When it came to the food, we were so impressed! Rob is a great chef and so many of our guests mentioned to us how great all the food was. We had a few appetizers during cocktail hour and then for dinner had Mahi Mahi, Roasted Chicken, and a vegan pasta dish. We also had late night snacks (saimin noodles, pizza, and sliders) which were delicious and such a hit with our guests! We also opted for a small 6” round wedding cake and a dessert bar with mini desserts. I am vegan and was so happy that they were able to accommodate making vegan options for me. They even made a vegan cake and vegan cupcakes. Our wedding cake was so good we already broke into the frozen leftovers and ate half of the portion we were supposed to save for our 1 year anniversary!
    We would highly recommend Food for the Soul if you are catering an event or wedding. Not only will you get great food and service, you will be working with 2 people who are genuinely caring and embody the aloha spirit!

    Wedding Catering and Planning

    We wanted to extend a huge thank you to Tina, Rob and the team at Food for the Soul for making our wedding exceed all our expectations. We are huge foodies and we thought the food and drinks were phenomenal and our guests couldn’t stop raving about it! The service from the staff was TOP notch--it felt like we were at a Michelin star restaurant (and this was a comment from many of our guests). They were quick to help, quick to serve, and our guests were very impressed at the hospitality. We are so thankful to have worked with a chef who is flexible and allowed us customize our menu based on our preferences and guest-allergies. The crab cakes and whole roasted pig were a big hit! The dinner was DELICIOUS! We got the filet mignon (cooked perfectly) and the mahi was so unique and very "Hawaii". Both options were well complimented by everyone. On top of all that, Tina was there every step of the way throughout the planning process and helped us with other vendors. We went through them for all bar services and cake/desserts as well and we couldn't have pulled off a perfect wedding without Tina. I’d definitely recommend FFTS to anyone looking for anything event related, from catering to full service wedding planning in Maui! Many mahalos from us!

    All star team!

    Tina, Rob and their entire team absolutely hit it out of the park for our wedding. The food was spectacular (our guests are still raving about it) and the service was superb. They were even able to modify the menu to ensure I could enjoy all of the dishes GF - most restaurants don't do this! Throughout the process Tina was responsive, thoughtful and offered helpful planning tips to an overwhelmed bride trying to plan a large wedding during COVID. She rolled with the punches and delivered a fantastic event. The wedding cake was possibly also the best we've ever eaten (also GF!). We can't wait to work with Food for the Soul again for any future event needs - we are so appreciate!

    Fantastic event and catering company

    Food For The Soul catered and planned our July 2021 wedding and it was better than we could have ever hoped for. Tina was an absolute delight to work with - especially when we had to postpone our original 2020 wedding due to the pandemic. She helped with every detail of the planning from menu to flowers to music and more, making it incredibly low stress on our end. She answered all my questions promptly and thoroughly, providing ideas and recommendations as needed. She understood my vision and really was pivotal in bringing it to life.

    The food exceeded our expectations and was even better than when we did an in-person tasting prior! Our guests raved at how delicious everything was, as well as how kind and detailed the service was.

    Rob, Tina and their entire staff was incredibly professional, but more importantly kind and fun. They work extremely hard for their clients and are truly a special team of people.

    I would highly, highly recommend Food For The Soul for any catering or event needs and really hope to work with Tina and Rob in the future.

    The best planning and catering in Maui!!

    Tina and Rob were amazing to work with from the start. With all of the craziness due to Covid, Tina walked us through it every step of the way reassuring us that we could still have our dream wedding! She was so responsive throughout the planning process and had the best recommendations for vendors, keeping every detail in check. We could not have asked for a better experience and the catering was also delicious - our guests commented on how yummy our Hawaiian buffet was. If you’re planning a wedding on Maui, look no further, this is your dream team!!

    The Happiest Our Souls Have Been

    Food for the Soul far exceeded our very high expectations! If you are looking for the perfecting planner and or catering team look no further 😊. Our wedding was truly magical and even better than we could have imagined- we owe a huge part of that to Tina & Rob.

    Tina was our wedding planner and continuously went above and beyond to help us plan our destination wedding. She was incredibly friendly, transparent, organized, and professional-all stellar event planning qualities. Planning a wedding during COVID was often very stressful, but Tina’s calm demeanor always helped to ease our minds. She was prompt to respond to all emails and set up multiple check in phone calls over the course of two years to assist us in planning, postponing, and then planning again. We could tell how much she really cared about our day, because of how well she listened and ensured we didn’t have any questions. She helped us to stay on track, chose excellent vendors, and execute the most amazing day. We are so grateful for all of Tina’s wonderful guidance throughout the duration of the planning process.

    The dinner Rob served was absolutely incredible and cooked to perfection- our guests are still raving about it! Many of our guests have even said it is the best food they’ve ever tasted at a wedding. Brendan and I are both foodies so choosing a caterer without a tasting was a tad concerning, but after reading multiple reviews and speaking with their team, we felt confident in Food for the Soul. I am thrilled with our decision; every single appetizer and dish was delicious! I would 100% hire them again for a future event.

    Food For The Soul Catering & Events's reply:

    Mahalo Brook and Brenden for the review. You were so patient throughout this covid experience. Rob and I are so happy that you finally were able to have your Maui wedding day. Mahalo for choosing Food For The Soul.

    Great value and delicious food!

    We were very happy with our choice to hire Food for the Soul for our wedding and got tons of compliments from our guests on the food! They were great to work with and very accommodating throughout the whole planning process. We were unable to schedule a tasting during a pre-wedding visit to Maui given their busy event schedule so they arranged for us to pick up appetizers and entrees for free from a wedding they were catering at Olowalu while we were in town so we could still taste everything in advance. Appetizers were some of the best I've ever had at a wedding - we were so happy they saved us an entire plate full to enjoy with our dinner so we didn't miss out on any! Must-haves include the Ahi Tar Tar in Wonton Cups, Coconut Shrimp, Gorgonzola Stuffed Dates Wrapped in Bacon, and the Kalua Pork Sliders!

    Absolutely perfect!

    Working with Food for the Soul was by far one of the highlights of our wedding!

    We booked Food for the Soul as both our wedding caterer and wedding planner.

    Tina was an absolutely incredible planner. Planning a Maui wedding all the way from Boston would seem difficult, but she made it happen all so flawlessly. We started working with her about a year and a half before our wedding date. It was a big plus that we paid Tina via Venmo, and she would allocate the payments to the vendors ensuring that our experience was as stress free as possible.

    My husband and I were unsure exactly where to start with the planning, but during our first conversation with Tina, she helped guide us to our vision for our wedding. Each step of the way, she would set to-do items for us, and send us comprehensive lists of vendors to pick from. She has so much experience that she can give great feedback about the vendors in the area. Tina was able to coordinate every aspect of the wedding, making us feel so comfortable even though we were thousands of miles away. We never worried about a thing!

    On the day of, Tina had everything handled so flawlessly that it took so much pressure off us. Everything was set up EXACTLY how we pictured it mentally and described to her over the phone in the months leading up to the date. She was there the entire time and I mean it when I say that we could not have asked for a single thing more.

    The food also turned out incredible. Our appetizers, the ahi tar tar and the Hawaiian pizza were TO DIE FOR. We received so many compliments on them. The were only upstaged by the main courses, macadamia nut mahi mahi and the filet with a twice baked potato (seriously need that potato recipe). Everything was perfectly cooked, and special instructions for dietary restrictions were taken care of. The service and bar staff were so pleasant and professional, it brought an added element of elegance to the wedding.

    It sounds so cliché, but we could not have made our wedding happen without Tina and Rob. Please do yourself a favor and work with them, you cannot regret it.

    Exceptional service - i cannot recommend tina enough.

    I just have to say how thankful I am for Tina and her services to help my husband and I achieve the wedding of our dreams. Tina went above and beyond to not only deal with all vendors and frankly EVERYONE, she also helped me navigate each of my best options financially, my indecision, and my many last minute changes. Tina was a DREAM to work with. She was calming and kind and extremely attentive and responsive to all my emails and questions and concerns. She never made me feel bad for my many questions, and gave utmost care to every single detail. Even down to the wedding day when I could tell she was feeling very under the weather, she still arranged everything perfectly and calmed my bridal nerves. All I can say is thank you. thank you. thank you. Tina is the best of the best at what she does and I would HIGHLY recommend her for handling your big day!

    Amazing Wedding Planning & Catering

    Tina, Rob, and the Food for the Soul team are amazing!! At the start of our engagement, my fiancé said that one of the most important parts of a wedding is the food. He isn’t wrong, so I put him in charge of finding the caterer. We planned our wedding from Sydney, Australia; so tastings weren’t an option for us. However, this company speaks for itself. It’s truly Food for the Soul. My fiancé did his research, read all the reviews, and knew that FFTS were our people. The cherry on top? Tina Digman. Tina not only runs and coordinates the catering side of FFTS, she also plans & coordinates weddings & events. My fiancé and I had all these visions, dreams, and questions bouncing around in our heads. After our first call with Tina, happy tears were shed (mainly by the bride). Tina instantly put us at ease, answered all our questions, and we knew she was the planner for us. Our planning journey was smooth sailings. Tina kept us on track, provided info and reviews of all vendors, and helped us think outside the typical wedding box. They say your wedding day happens in a flash, and it did, but it went off without a hitch with Tina & team by our side. What about the food? Oh yeah. THE. FOOD. WAS. KILLER! Chef Rob and team dish out some awesome food. We went with the Pacific Rim Buffet option, served family style, and boy it didn’t disappoint. The flavors of all dishes were divine, people with all taste buds were satisfied. From the wasabi mash to the sesame pork loin with hoisin sauce, out of this world! We loved hearing all our guest compliment the food. During our wedding, after our wedding and we know for years to come. We’re so thankful for all the Food for the Soul team members. Beyond thankful for Tina and Rob. We’ll sing their praises forever. So what are you waiting for?! Stop looking! Food for the Soul is who you want!

    Amazing Wedding Caterer/Coordinator

    Such an amazing experience working with Food for the Soul! Tina coordinated our wedding and was such a pleasure to work with. She gave advice on every single vendor we selected and was such a help with every detail of our wedding. On our wedding day, she took care of every single thing! It was such a great help to have Tina to help plan and execute our wedding dreams! I am a very detail oriented person and I ask a ton of questions, all of which Tina was willing to take the time to answer. She was with me every step of the way while planning our wedding which was such an amazing help! And the food- wow the food was amazing! Our guests said the food was the best food they have eaten at a wedding! It was incredible. Food for the Soul made our wedding an amazing experience!

    Wedding of our DREAMS !

    Tina & Rob ! Mahalo from the bottom of our hearts !
    We could not have chosen a better team to plan THE wedding of our dreams ....

    We used food for the soul for full wedding coordination and catering for our wedding on September 2019, and it worked out seamlessly. Tina is lovely and very professional. We were planning our wedding in Maui from Las Vegas, and Tina was very knowledgeable of vendors and conditions in Maui and she always suggested things with our budget in mind ; unlike other planners that are not as cost effective . I have been planning the wedding of my dreams for years and I had alot of details that I wanted incorporated . On my wedding day I could not hold back the tears because it was even better than what I had imagined. Every single detail was executed so gracefully. And when I wanted certain things changed last minute, Tina would arrange it with no hesitation , she also had no problems getting our decor sent to her home from las vegas . Tina and your team you guys are amazing . My wedding day was stress free and our wedding group of 60 people all appreciated how attentive and organized Tina was throughout our wedding and our wedding rehearsal. Tina we love you !!

    Rob is her husband and the main chef of food for the soul and we saw from the reviews that people rave about their food . And I can say the reviews don’t lie !! The food was AMAZING !! My husband and I are big foodies and really good food at our wedding was the most important thing. Once we had our tasting when we visited Maui before the wedding , we knew we made the absolute right choice .

    Our guests could not stop talking to this day about how delicious everything was from our cocktail hour to our full buffet dinner . Tina also made sure that my husband and I had the full selection of apps during our cocktail hour that we enjoyed before going out to mingle with our guests which we thoroughly devoured. The only regret My guests had was being too full to eat more of the food, because it was that good ! Our favorites from our food selection are coconut shrimp which was soooo good! , crab cakes were phenomenal and really packed with yummy crab, The roast pig- lechon stole the show!! , the wasabi mashed potatoes - so creamy and flavorful , the mango glazed mahi-mahi , and the filet mignon. Basically everything that came out of Rob’s kitchen was to die for.

    There are a lot of choices out there in Maui but I can truly say Rob and Tina of Food for the soul are truly genuine people and care about you and your needs for your wedding day . They exceeded our expectations at all levels and the quality of the food and service was top notch. A million thanks food for the soul, we had the wedding of the year and memories of a lifetime . THANK YOU !!

    Amazing!

    Tina and her team are the absolute BEST. When I started planning my wedding I was overwhelmed and didn’t even know where to begin but as soon as I got on the phone with Tina I felt so comfortable and on that very FIRST phone conversation I knew I made the right choice. Tina made everything so easy and when the big day came and saw everything together we were ecstatic. Everything was exactly how my husband and I pictured it we had our dream wedding and we owe it all to Tina and her team!

    Turn to FFTS to make your Dream Wedding come True

    Tina and Rob were professional, calming and a pleasure to work with. They had to work with us through long distance as we are based in Canada and we couldn't have asked for anyone else. They made our dream wedding come true, with a beach front ceremony coupled with a reception fit for a king and queen. We would recommend Food for the Soul to anyone looking for the best catering and wedding planning on the island.

    Incredible planning/ coordination and food

    We planned our Maui wedding from Nashville, which made it a bit tricky since we couldn't be there in person to make decisions. Tina made it so easy for us though so in the end the long distance didn't even matter. She was so knowledgable and helped us every step of the way. We couldn't have done it without her! Everything was beyond our expectations-- the food was incredible and the day-of coordination and planning phases were flawless. We highly recommend her services.

She went above and beyond to make our day perfect while keeping our budget in mind. Our food was absolutely delicious and the staff was so attentive and kind. Thank you Tina and Food for the Soul for making the planning process and our wedding day seamlessly perfect! Mahalo!

    Wedding Dreams Come Through

    Tina and Rob of Food For The Soul are simply amazing! I was recommended their services from a friend who got married a few months before me. As she stated, they were so easy to communicate with through out my wedding planning, and they really listened to my needs. Tina was very genuine and really helped me to stay within my budget. As promised, there was plenty of delicious food for my guests! Rob is truly amazing in the kitchen! My family and friends came to me through out our wedding night just to tell me how delicious their meals were, which really made made my heart happy! One of my aunts visiting from New York said it was the best meal she has ever had! Thank you again to Food For The Soul for the amazing service! I highly recommend them for any function you may need catering for!
    Many Mahalos!

    The best wedding coordinator ever!

    Tina, Rob, and Food for the Soul are AMAZING. Easily the best choice (other than my pick of husband!) for coordinating/catering our wedding. She is detail oriented, thorough and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. Planning a destination wedding can be stressful, but due to TIna and Food for the Soul, this experience was nothing but positive. Many of our guests commented that this was the best wedding they had ever been to and had by far the best food they had eaten at a wedding! I can't recommend them highly enough!

    Delicious food and impeccable service

    Food for the Soul did an incredible job at our wedding. All of the staff were friendly, fun, and professional. They were easy to work with and had no problem fulfilling our special requests. Our wedding had to gluten free to accommodate Celiac disease, and they made it incredibly easy. They worked with us and found a vendor that could provide our gluten-free dessert: creme brulee. They also helped us make a spiked blueberry lemonade drink that our guests raved about. Their food is delicious and the service during the wedding impeccable. Thanks Food for the Soul!

    Tina and Food for the Soul were absolutely amazing! We used Food for the Soul for almost all our wedding needs - day of planning, catering, bar service, and rentals. Living in California, we were nervous about planning a destination wedding, but Tina made the whole process easy and enjoyable. From the very beginning, Tina went above and beyond to ensure we that were comfortable throughout the entire process. She took the time to understand our tastes and vision and gave us recommendations that accommodated our budget. She had the entire planning process down to a science. Tina helped us stay on track with our planning by scheduling regular phone calls to check in on our progress and answer all of our questions. The wedding was absolutely stress free and seamless which is a testament to Tina's planning and experience. Not only was Tina wonderful, but Rob and his team did an equally amazing job with the food. The stuffed dates and poke station were huge hits, not to mention the island buffet! Food for the Soul has been working with their staff for years and it definitely showed. They were all very professional and made the entire event a huge success. We feel so lucky to have found Tina and Food for the Soul and would recommend them to anyone planning a Hawaii wedding. Mahalo!

    Tina and Rob helped us plan and cater our wedding. We want to first start by saying that they are some of our favorite people - they are kind, generous, and awesome at what they do!

    We got married on August 22nd, the day before Hurricane Lane was supposed to smash into the island. We were so thankful to have Tina and team to help us navigate through the storm. We were pretty confident that we’d be able to have our wedding on the day we had planned, but we were unsure about what it would look like. We were expecting some rain, but due to forecasted high winds, we were unable to have a tent. Tina didn’t miss a beat in coming up with contingency plans and mapping out multiple scenarios including the worst-case scenario for us, which was so helpful. On the day of the wedding, we got lucky – the weather held, we were able to have the ceremony outside, and we didn’t get a raindrop until we were leaving! It was magic!

    Tina was a force of calm during the planning process, which we really appreciated. She was prepared, organized, and she always answered our obscure questions with grace (we’re both data people, so details are everything for us). We are a “less is more” kind of couple and wanted our wedding to be understated and low-key, which isn’t always synonymous with a wedding. We talked to a few other planners and ultimately felt like they had a grand vision that didn’t jive with our laid-back vision. When we found Tina, she was a breath of fresh air! She listened and help guide us as we made each decision. In between planning calls, she was always available for questions as they came up, but there wasn’t much that we thought of between calls because she is so thorough.

    We also had Rob and his team cater. Rob’s culinary skills are amazing!! Everything we had was DELICIOUS and cooked to perfection! You can’t ask for a better caterer for a wedding!

    Ok, this was literally the best steak I've ever had, and I've had Kobe Beef in Kyoto, Japan. The food was delicious!! The apps were huge! Scallops wrapped in bacon, coconut shrimp... This food was not tiny. Well worth the price, so glad we chose them! Staff was so friendly and delightful. Be sure to have the molokai sweet potato. We also ordered our cake from them, the decor wasn't what we asked for, but we worked directly with my coordinator, so I'm not sure where the ball was dropped. It was sooo delicious, and that's what really matters. I wish they had a restaurant because it was the best food we had in Hawaii! 5-16-18 Olowalu Plantation House.

    I really had no idea what to expect. We live in Colorado, and neither my husband or I had ever been to the Hawaiian Islands. We didn't have any family or friends to give us any feedback or recommendations, but I tell you what, I am so thankful I did some google searches and found Food for the Soul. Tina was incredible to work with. She was always very punctual and helped take so much of the planning off my plate. She knew what questions to ask and when to ask them. She was a pleasure to work with. They took care of everything, the chairs, tables, flatware, silverware, bar, food, staff, planning... I do not think I am forgetting anything. If that wasn't enough, when the big day came, the staff were all a pleasure to work with, so friendly and helpful! Now to the food, OMG I could have eaten all night if I didnt have to fit in my dress. It was delicious, and there was fear there as we didn't get to test the food before choosing them to be our catering company. They didn't disappoint. It was AMAZING!!!! Not one single item was not tasty. I even ate the fish and I HATE seafood!

    We are so thankful to have had them be part of our day and that we chose to go with them. Trust me, you will be blown away if you go with these guys!

    Food for the Soul – Tina and Rob Digman. They and their team are much more than catering, they provide stellar full-service event management. We went from simply looking at them for the catering to having Tina and her event team help plan our wedding from start to finish and we were not let down. Tina constantly kept us updated on what to do next and made sure we were always a few steps ahead. Her ability to organize our event put us at ease, during what could have been a very stressful time. On the “Day Of” the staff were awesome and Tina’s assistant Willow was always on-point ensuring we were all doing well.

    I can’t help but fully endorse and recommend Tina and Rob Digman and their team to handle your most precious of events, your wedding. They were a very important part of our wedding being the most memorable experience of our lives.

    Mahalo Nui Loa to Tina, Rob, Willow and the entire Food for the Soul TEAM for everything you did to ensure our special day was so truly perfect and SPECIAL.

    Hands down best vendor choice made! Anyone you talk to on the island, vendor or local, will tell you how AMAZING Tina and Food For The Soul is. They are highly respected and it is well deserved. My husband and I feel very lucky to have even been able to book them. We came to the island about 18 months in advance and were struggling with finding a venue and vendor that we could fully trust. As we started asking around, vendor after vendor recommended Tina and FFTS. We originally did not think that we would be able to afford a wedding coordinator for our intimate wedding, but we inquired and were pleasantly surprised. Making that phone call and securing FFTH was the the BEST decision (besides getting married) that we made!
    Tina and her team, hands down made our wedding! The entire process was stress free. She kept me on track during our monthly check-ins and was never a minute late on a phone call. She is well connected on the island and made recommendations that fit our taste and budget. When in doubt of a decision, we just asked Tina her opinion and trusted her judgment (we highly recommend this route, she knows what she is doing—when in doubt just trust her).
    Tina and her team are top notch!!! My husband and I did not have to worry about anything that day. Her organization and management allowed for my husband and to focus on being present with one another and with our friends and family.
    Now for the food! Yummy-o! FFTH did not disappoint on the food! The filet was so tender you could cut it with a fork. The prawns were large and perfectly cooked. The appetizers were scrumptious! This was not your typical wedding, but was instead high quality 5 Star restaurant food. Our guests are still raving about it to this day.
    We HIGHLY recommend Tina and FFTS. They run a down-to-earth, professional, highly respected, top quality, yet affordable, company that you can trust!

    I really don't know how I would have had this destination wedding of my dreams without Tina. I refer to her often as my Wedding "Fairy God Mother" as her gentle nature and professionalism was what helped make my wedding day absolutly perfect from start to finish and put me at ease through the whole process. I was so nervous and didn't even know where to start planning for a wedding on the other side of the world, I had never been to Maui and had no idea how to go about hiring, decorating,organizing food and drinks and decor and insurance and all those loose ends one has to think of when pulling together a wedding. A friend of mine who had used Food for the Soul told me about how they used them as their caterer and the food was out of this world and that they also helped with all the wedding details leading up to the big day and it was so simple! When I reached out to Tina from FFTS to inquire if she could help me it was love at first call! She walked me through everything and scheduled call backs every few months leading up to the big day and kept me on track with timelines and offered vendor tips and anything I asked for or wanted to change she would alter with the tap of her wand like it was no trouble at all! I am very indecisive and she always offered solutions and kept me in my budget, and really there is nothing more she could have done to make it a better experience! Her husband is the chef and his cooking was INCREDIBLE! I still get messages from guests today reminiscing about the meal! She also set everything up decor wise with her team exactly how I had imagined my wedding ambiance looking without really any instruction! She was an absolute blessing and so affordable she even saved me a ton of money through her vendor connections! I don't know what I would have done without her! I wish I could hug her everyday to thank her for making these last few months which should have been stressful, so smooth and hassle free! Couldn't have asked for anyone better!

    We chose Food for the Soul to cater our Maui wedding this past April, and I promise you will not be disappointed. We had guests come up to us and say that was the best food they have ever eaten at a wedding, and in general! Planning a destination wedding relies on hoping everything works out since you're not able to be physically there every step of the planning journey; but, having FFTS as your caterer takes away the worries because they do such an amazing job.

    Around a year before our wedding, we decided to take a mini trip to Maui to do some taste testing of a few caterers. FFTS had a wedding to cater and was not able to schedule a formal tasting, but they mentioned we could stop by and they had pre-made a plate of food for us to try. I will never forget how unbelievably kind and accommodating that was.

    Although our wedding planner communicated with them, FFTS was timely in their responses and super accommodating to all our changes. We even had some last minute requests and they were able to meet our needs. Lastly, their staff are absolutely wonderful! Each and every one of them treated us and all our guests with so much care, and they were so fun! We had so many positive comments about the delicious food and the staff.

    I don't even know how we got to be so lucky with FFTS. They were beyond everything me and my husband imagined for our food at the wedding. Since we both love to eat and wanted to feed our guests a delicious meal, we really wanted something special for our day. FFTS exceeded all our expectations and we cannot thank them enough.

    Love, Alex and Cristina - Married at Olowalu Plantation House on April 28th, 2018

I was nervous about planning a destination wedding and not being able to visit venues or vendors as part of the planning process. I am so grateful that I found Tina and Food for the Soul online because she was so easy to work with and very affordable. We had conversations about once a month throughout the wedding planning process and Tina was so friendly and easy to talk to. She answered all of my questions, gave great advice, and made sure to ask me about any little detail that I hadn't thought of. I was given options for all of the other vendors, but also great advice about which vendors would be best for my vision. Even though we had a very small, private ceremony and reception in Maui she paid attention to every detail and made everything exactly as I had envisioned. The day was even better than I imagined thanks to Tina and her team's expertise and hard work. The table and decor were executed beautifully, the food was delicious (especially the pesto mashed potatoes!!), the service was amazing, and the day went so smoothly. I would give Food For the Soul more than 5 stars if I could! They did an amazing job and I definitely recommend them to plan your perfect wedding day.

    Thank you so much to Tina and her crew for making our wedding magical. We really could not have done it without her and that’s not even an exaggeration. The food was freaking amazing (people are still talking about how good it was 10 days later :) ) and Tina was so helpful and supportive the day of (and all the days leading up to the big day). I was so happy to have her there. What an amazing energy to be around. Thank you again Tina and Rob. You guys are the real MVPs.

    Food for the Soul catered our destination wedding in Maui. We corresponded to them through our wedding planner, but had no problems with food requests. We wanted a dinner party for our wedding, and Food for the Soul was able to recommend and plan several courses (6!), as well as beer and wine pairings, and provide the servers and bar/bartenders. First of all, the bartender was fantastic and served our wine/beer pairings with each course. The servers obviously loved their jobs (I’ve never seen so many smiles and happy faces) and were excellent. They even set aside appetizers for me and my husband to enjoy later, as we were taking pictures during cocktails. Finally, the food was the best food I’ve ever had in my life. The portions were generous, and each course was better than the last. I’m still getting compliments on the meal several months later! The chef came out to introduce each course, which was a nice touch. We’d hire them again in a heartbeat, and can’t recommend them enough.

    Tina & Rob absolutely nailed it with our wedding. Tina is the sweetest, most amazing person and she had it all down to a T! She was absolutely professional, 100% of the time, and only came to us on the day of to confirm any changes or to direct us based on time. She made sure we got 100% of our deposit back from the venue and was amazing every step of the way. I'll tell you that this is no easy feat with me - I am a organizational freak and she followed my needs from the day we signed the contract w/ her (2 years prior to our special day)!

    And I have to say that although we knew the food was going to be delish, as they had given us a sample plate once before, they did an amazing job of set up and arranging everything. One of our most popular comments as we discussed with family & friends afterward was the amazing food.

    I would not hesitate to recommend Tina and Food for the Soul, they made sure our day was personal, intimate, and beautiful! I can honestly say that our wedding blew us away and we owe that in part to Tina, Rob, and their team. We got married early October at the Olowalu Plantation House in Maui. I knew once I talked to Tina on the phone that we clicked. She is very personable and easy going and she gave me excellent guidance when planning our wedding for 35 guests. She is easy to reach via email and will set up monthly phone calls to plan. She also really knows the venue and has great relationships with the vendors which made the whole process very smooth. We were planning the wedding from California and had never been to Hawaii, but that was never an issue. On the day of the wedding, we knew we had nothing to worry about because Tina and her team were on top of it. Everything went very smoothly and turned out to be better than we could have ever imagined. The food and crepes were truly delicious! Additionally, we couldn’t have asked for better service staff to work during our wedding. I had numerous guests tell me how amazing the food was and how nice everyone working was. It made us feel so happy to know our guests were taken care of. My recommendation would be to give Tina a call, I talked to 3 or so wedding planners before choosing Food for the Soul. If you do choose to work with them, you will not regret it!

    Food for the Soul, how absolutely appropriate! My husband and I celebrated our 25th Wedding Anniversary and Food for the Soul catered the vow renewal dinner at our condo in Kihei. All the planning was done via email & phone calls with Tina, what a joy to work with (yup, no tasting). She helped me come up with a delicious family style menu including appetizers for 11 people. A very small group and she didn't blink an eye. Chef Rob & his assistant Eric made the evening an experience we will never forget. As all my guests said at the end of the evening........ BEST meal they had on island and they are still raving about it.

    Did I mention all of this was done without me doing a tasting.......... Best shot in the dark I ever made. Don't hesitate, TRULY you will not be disappointed. Mahalo Food for the Soul, Tina, Chef Rob & Eric.......

    Food for the Soul Catering went above and beyond for us on our wedding day. My husband and I got married in April, 2017 and we were extremely happy with them. They well exceeded our expectation in quality, taste, and professionalism. Tina and her husband Rob created a masterpiece of food for our wedding; our guests are still talking about it five months later. Tina and Rob worked with our budget while in no way compromising in integrity or taste.
    I want to get married again just so that we can come to Maui and eat more of their delicious wedding-food creations. I would recommend Food for the Soul Catering, Maui to ANYONE ANYDAY for ANY OCCASION!

    After a lot of searching and talking with other planners, we decided to choose Tina and Food for the Soul. Tina was brought on as a day-of coordinator about a year before our wedding date, but was extremely helpful with all the planning leading up to the wedding, including checking in every month to see our progress with hiring vendors and making sure everything was being done on time.

    All the rental items (tables, chairs, plates, etc) were taken care of by Tina and her crew, we only had to tell her what our vision was and she made it happen. She really went above and beyond for what we were expecting. Not once did we ever feel pressured to spend more money or anything that you might expect a coordinator to suggest, Tina worked with what we were comfortable spending and even gave suggestions on where we could cut costs and spend a bit extra in areas that were more important to us.

    The food was absolutely amazing. Our menu consisted of the grilled rib eye and the ahi, and all of our guests could not stop talking about how good the food was. The staff was very friendly and accommodating to everyone, and overall it was an amazing experience. The day turned out exactly as we had hoped it would, and it wouldn't have been possible without Tina and Food for the Soul. Highly recommended!

    Although we were unable to have FFTS for our wedding, I wanted to commend Tina and how GREAT she was to work with! She worked with me to stay within budget, offered advice on what was important and what wasn't necessary. She went above and beyond our expectations as a caterer and if the stars aligned, we would have booked FFTS in a heartbeat. You can feel their passion for food, and detail, and the amount of effort that they put in to each event. Impeccable!

    We first spoke to Tina after deciding not to use a wedding planner. She convinced us that we still really needed a day-of coordinator, and we've never regretted it. We only got married once, but got the benefit of much experience because of Tina.

    It was awesome to have the important roles of caterer and day-of coordinator in one person! Given the fact that my husband and I don't live in Maui, we needed someone who could help us communicate and organize our vendors and logistics - and Tina did exactly that! We started the planning process a year in advance and Tina kept us on track by scheduling regular check-in calls, introducing us to awesome vendors, thinking of things we never imagined and generally guiding us along the way. And then she was waiting for us on the property for a site visit when it was finally just days before the wedding. She is very responsive, attentive to details (thank you for the essential oil for my allergies during makeup!), and has an extensive list of other vendors for you to consider. My florist, photographer and musicians are all from her vendor list, and chances are Tina will probably know them even they aren't on the list.

    As for the food, the menu from Tina, Rob and their team was extensive and the food was delicious! They were flexible both as to picking our menu and when we had to adjust our head-count and the number of appetizers per person. The staff was friendly and hands-on. You can opt for a buffet (which we did) or a traditional 3-course reception. Special request such as ice cream bar/ shave ice bar is totally doable!

    My overall experience w/ Tina and Food for the Soul was superb: Tina and her team made my dream wedding seamless and memorable. Our special day was truly that because of Tina's help and Rob's cooking. I recommend Tina + Food for the Soul to everyone who plans to get married in Maui.

    I used Food For The Soul as my caterer and wedding planner -- let me just start by saying it was the best decision I made when planning my wedding. I live in Boston and wasn't able to come to Maui for ANY of the planning -- I put everything in Tina's hands and she exceeded my expectations by a mile. The entire year leading up to my wedding, Tina & I talked through every aspect of my wedding - she was so patient, kind and cared about my wedding. She was always so honest when I asked if certain items were worth spending money on and I appreciated her transparency. Without her, I think I would have gone crazy planning a wedding so far away!

    The day of the wedding went perfectly and she catered to my husband and I all night. The food (which I wasn't able to try before the wedding) was SO GOOD. I was very picky about the food and told Tina that I wanted it all to be hot and fresh and didn't want typical 'wedding' food, and Rob (her husband) sure did deliver. We had a live action noodle station and a whole roasted pig. Our guests raved about it all night long. After my husband and I took photos, we wanted a little privacy so Tina set up a dinner for us inside so we could try all the food and drink wine by ourselves. It was wonderful.

    Later that night, my husband's best man didn't get enough food because he was doing things for the wedding, and the Food For The Soul team was making him fried rice with an egg in the kitchen. Little things like that made my wedding perfect.

    Thank you to Tina, Rob & the outstanding For For The Soul team!!!!!

    Tina and her team made the whole planning-a-wedding-from-afar an absolutely seamless and easy experience. We cannot recommend Tina enough for both her coordination services as well as her catering. She was patient, informative and just oozed with knowledge and experience about throwing weddings on the island. There was absolutely nothing we needed to worry about on the big day because Tina had it all under control. Her staff was friendly and warm, as were all the vendors she recommended. If you're thinking about getting married on Maui, Tina and FFTS are an amazing choice that you will not regret. A huge THANK YOU to Tina and team for making our day the best and most perfect that we could hope for.

    Tina is a true ANGEL when it comes to wedding planing for a destination wedding!
    I had nothing but frustration when I first started to plan my wedding. The Resorts were not interested on giving us the sites we like because of having a small party (under 30 guests). I was also trying to book over a year in advance, the resorts and another wedding planning company I was talking with were either rude and unfriendly to work with.
    I decided I could start from scratch. One day and started looking up catering without having a planner or a site to hold the wedding. My now Husband and I were so impress with the menus for FFTS I reached out and found Tina.
    Telling her my situation she informed me that she also does wedding planning and her Husband Rob does the catering part of the company. We were ecstatic to hear that and started working with FFTS on sites and venues.
    Tina is truly filled with the Aloha spirit! She made all our wedding dreams come true. Our guest all 15 of them went on and on about how beautiful and perfect this wedding was. Many said it was the best wedding they have ever been too.
    All thanks to Tina who was a blessing from the Lord .

    Tina was our wedding planner and Food For the Soul catered our wedding at Olowalu Plantation House -- we are located in San Francisco. Both Tina, Rob, and the whole team did an OUTSTANDING job. The food truly speaks for itself with the freshest ingredients that are properly seasoned and cooked -- not over-sauced or seasoned which is what we found in most of our tastings. We had both seafood and beef and the steak was perfectly medium-rare upon our request, poke and prawns were fresh, and our whole roasted suckling pig was eye-catching with crispy skin and juicy meat -- not an easy task for 100+ guests! The food was important to us and FFTS delivered!

    As a planner, Tina is pro-active, flexible, patient, professional, and genuine. If your wedding planner is your most important vendor, as it was for us, there is no better choice than Tina. Her service level and availability was exceptional from our first interaction to the wedding. We had special requests for decor, dessert, and several other areas that Tina not only addressed with patience and an open mind but she was able to find items, sometimes from around the world, and convince other vendors to accommodate our requests just to bring our vision to life.

    A wedding is one of the biggest days in someone's life and working with Tina was one of the best decisions we made not just because she is great at what she does but also because she is a genuinely kind and likeable person.

    Tina and her Team are amazing. I went in without having any clue of what I want and I was very indecisive on everything. Tina give me a list of venue that would be good to work on within my budget. She was very patient with us and very responsive whenever I have questions. Even thought she was guiding us we were doing thing last minute and she made sure we get things done. With a few research of my own I told her my vision on the decoration and wedding day it self. She deliever it on point. My flowers were perfect, I love the decoration and how everything turn out thanks to her. The food are amazing and cartering was very attention thoughout the wedding day. I highly recommand her if you are planning a wedding and want to have stress free day because she take care of EVERYTHING!

    I cannot say enough great things about Food for the Soul. I used Food for the Soul for both catering and wedding coordination and I must say that it was the best decision I made. From the very beginning Tina was very detailed and always punctual. She has great suggestions and helped us tweak things to keep costs down. We are also vegetarian and Food for the Soul was able to provide many options to provide our guests with many choices and the food was so yummy!

    One example on how amazing Tina is and how willing she is to go above and beyond for her clients, is her ability to get Marvin Tevaga to play at our wedding. I had tried to book Marvin for our wedding on my own and was told he was unavailable. I let Tina know how much I was hoping to have Marvin play at our wedding. Tina contacted Marvin and found out that Marvin's wedding anniversary was the same day as my wedding. What are the odds? But Tina was able to work things out and Marvin agreed to play at our wedding! My husband and I were just over the moon excited! And it was all because of Tina.

    The day of the wedding was when Tina, Rob, and their staff really shined. The morning and afternoon before my wedding it was poring down rain. I was getting nervous but I was remaining optimistic that the rain would stop on time. Then, on the drive to the wedding venue, there was a car accident and the entire road was closed going both directions. I was in a panic as any bride could imagine. Tina called me and was so calm, she explained that the road was just getting cleared and everything would be okay. After two hours in traffic to go 10 miles to Olowalu, it was still raining. When I walked into the house, Tina had rearranged all the tables under the lenai, so that our wedding would be fine no matter the weather. All my stress was immediately gone and I knew that Tina was handling anything that came her way, truly amazing!

    We had such a great experience with Tina and Rob of Food For The Soul! We hired Tina to coordinate our Big Day and it all went off without a hitch! (I'm a wedding planner myself so I have fairly high expectations.) Communication was smooth throughout the entire process - we planned from Canada. Tina was incredibly kind, considerate and caring. She helped with recommending local vendors and negotiating rental items. We had a beautiful wedding, everything done with the utmost care. The food was phenomenal, our guests raved about how delicious everything was! I would highly recommend Food For the Soul to any bride! Happy Planning! xo

    We used Food For The Soul as our caterer and Tina was also our wedding coordinator and we are VERY happy with the level of service FFTS provided. From the first time we inquired about using her services Tina was so responsive, kind, patient and sweet in answering all of our questions. Immediately she made us feel comfortable, informed and confident that we could count on her to help us plan our destination wedding. 

    We consider ourselves very detail-oriented, so throughout the 9+ month long relationship we had with Tina during the planning process, we were continually pleased at her level of detail and we were able to count on her to deliver. She provided solid advice on vendors (booked some for us in a very timely manner) and held multiple update calls with us to keep us on track in our planning. One of the most helpful services that Tina provided was we were able to mail packages to her for pickup once we were on island. This helped tremendously as we do not live in Maui. Throughout the planning stages, Tina helped make the daunting process of wedding planning much more manageable by providing to-dos and action items to keep us on track. 

    The week before our wedding we were thrown a large weather curve ball. The forecast was looking very grim for our outdoor wedding and Tina had already secured a rental tent for us, had the layout of our reception rearranged and made us feel very at ease about the entire (very stressful) situation. Without Tina's foresight, bias for action, and professionalism we would not have been prepared and would have had many unhappy and wet guests!

    Lastly, I cannot say enough about FFTS Catering and Tina's day-of coordination. Tina had the right balance of time management to let everyone have their special moments and still kept us on track for time. Tina and her team brought our vision to life, and made it even better than we had imagined. We are so happy and thankful that we chose to use FFTS - thank you Tina!!!

    Food the for the Soul is amazing! Led by a husband and wife team, Tina and Rob, are as good as it gets! My experience has solely been with Tina, through bi-monthly to monthly chats during the whole process. She’s quick to respond to email questions, and a pleasure to speak with on the phone. As stressful as wedding planning is, Tina made it go very smoothly. She is very accommodating and will work hard to make the wedding of your dreams come true! She even tried different malasada bakeries when I decided I would not do a cake, but instead a malasada tower (which came out perfect)! And she recommended one of the best bakeries on the islands, and even picked up for us on our special day.

    In addition, the way Food for the Soul is set up, made it so much easier for us in our wedding plans. I love that everything is ‘all inclusive’, meaning all rentals are included in the rates! Any additional rentals, Tina outlined for us and took care of it. The LESS vendors you need to work with, the BETTER and less STRESS you will have!

    The FOOD! When picking Maui as our destination, I knew I wanted island flavors in our menu. I mean why have a Hawaiian wedding and serve food you’d find back home? We went with their luau menu and it did not disappoint. We got lots of compliments on the food – appetizers, dinner and late-night snacks. I only wish I had more time to enjoy the food. One of my biggest wants from the wedding was to have the dinner “Family Style”, and Tina made it happen.

    Overall, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Food for the Soul for your catering needs, and Tina for any wedding coordinator needs. She will work tirelessly to make your day everything you dreamed and more.

    Tina and the team were fantastic! I am based in the UK and was excited to have my wedding in Maui. Initially we were able to go over to Maui 2 years prior to meet various wedding coordinators and based on previous reviews I got in contact with Tina & Food for the Soul.
    We immediately felt like we were in good hands, saw several venues with Suzanne, and booked a tasting, the food was plentiful and delicious! My husband and I are both foodies and we were both very very satisfied.

    Once we set a date Tina & her team were great about keeping in touch via email and skype to plan the wedding. We did a lot of research and I noticed all the Food for the Soul prices were very competitive and much better value than all the other coordinators/caterers on the island, and plus they had incredible reviews to match.
    I’m quite organized in my job so I wanted to be able to choose my own vendors and create my own unique wedding. Tina had a list of people she recommended and works with, but was happy for me to book whoever I wanted for our wedding.

    Just a tip because everyone is so busy, it can be hard to get in email contact with people on the island as the island vibe is quite laid back – so Tina was able to call vendors who weren’t always as fast on email. Tina did a lot of follow up behind the scenes with all the vendors and was fantastic about keeping us in the loop with everything. She was always fun to chat to on the phone and had great ideas for everything we wanted or thought of.

    On the day she was such a great coordinator, everything ran like clockwork and the evening was so perfect! Despite the Maui island wide 10pm curfew on all outdoor activities, we felt the evening lasted for ages!
    Our guests raved about the food and had seconds and thirds! The appetisers were fantastic and I only wish I was hungrier on the night as they were delicious!

    Tina and the team were lovely and efficient. They helped us pack up and made sure we had everything.

    I have absolute

    We booked Food for the Soul for our daughters wedding, from long-distance and without any taste-testing, and we would not hesitate to ever use them again! Fantastic food, great service, attention to detail and just overall very pleased and we would suggest them to anyone at anytime!

    Look no further, you have found your event caterer for your Maui event! Tina worked with me from San Francisco to plan our reception dinner buffet for 45 in Kihei, and she did a phenomenal job!

    The team (Rob & Koa) showed up right on time and whipped through cooking all of the tasty dishes we ordered. Everyone remarked on how professional, quick and awesome the chefs were, and as a bride, I was utterly thrilled by how quick on the draw they were. I barely knew they were there, that's how little direction they needed.

    Tina had worked with me on the menu to help me come up with a decent amount of food for our guests, plus a little extra for the big eaters. She was right on the money. Everyone had plenty to eat, and at the end there was hardly any leftover food. That's serious event planning skills right there!

    The food was incredibly delicious, and pretty much every person at the wedding pulled me aside to exclaim how impressed they were. I wish we all lived on the island so we could throw more parties for Food for the Soul to cater: they were amazingly efficient, very reasonably priced, and completely delectable to eat!

    PS: You need to try their cupcakes, if you love a truly fabulous buttercream and a delightfully flavorful and fluffy cake, you will eat five of your own wedding/birthday/event cupcakes like I did. :)

    Tina has been nothing but AMAZING! After having my first meet up with her, she opened my eyes to everything else but food! She truly cares for you & is willing to go above & beyond what her job entails. Her energy radiates happiness & were able to talk forever! Her husband, Rob, is one of the best cooks I know. He prepared my food for my wedding & no one left disappointed. I had guest tell me it was the best food they've had at a wedding, ever! My husband & I were taken back at how yummy everything was & how the staff treated us like royalty. They knew we would be running around yet they still made it a point to find us & feed us. All around a 5 star experience. Keep up the great work!

Our wedding day turned out beautifully and the food and drinks were delicious!! Rob, the chef and the staff were so sweet and professional. The presentation of the food was gorgeous and everyone kept raving about the flavors. I highly recommend Food For the Soul to anyone planning a catered event!

    Tina and the whole FFTS family are amazing, they planned and catered my wedding at Olowalu and I could not be happier. Tina listened to all of my requests and was so patient with all of my changes and last minute decisions, her patience amazed me, and what amazed me even more was the execution, everything looked just like i imagined it (actually even better). Thanks to FFTS the whole night seemed like a dream, it was amazing. Tina, Rob and the whole FFTS family exceeded all of my expectations, they went out of their way so that this night would be magical for my husband, my guests and myself. Words cannot describe how grateful I am with them.

    We used Food For The Soul to plan and cater our wedding day and they were amazing. Tina was everything you could ask for in a wedding coordinator. She was 100% transparent about prices, gave us great recommendations, and was extremely knowledgeable and experienced. Because of her, we were able to enjoy our day stress free! Rob and the catering staff were also great, the food was delicious and all of our guests were going up for seconds and thirds! Food for the soul also did the bar service at our wedding and made many delicious drinks! All of guests had nothing but positive things to say about the staff. Our wedding was amazing thanks to this great company. Thanks! F&G

    As an international wedding photographer for over 12 years and now a bride, needless to say, I have seen the good, bad and the ugly! First thing I did once we found our venue (they referred me to Tina btw) was call Tina. I hired her on the 1st call. She is amazing! Planning a destination wedding and moving to our new home less than 3 weeks before the wedding, I couldn't have done it without her! Well, I could have but I'd probably be 1. behind bars for hurting someone, or 2. in a padded room wearing an unflattering tight little jacket. Sean and I wanted a wedding with an old Hawaiian feel that was laid back and relaxed. Tina totally delivered! It was pretty much 1 stop shopping. I told her what we wanted, she sent me a list of vendors she thought would work well with our personality and style, I hired the vendors she referred me to and we had an absolutely amazing wedding! Theres really nothing we would change. It was exactly how we had imagined it only 100 times better! Tina and Rob went way beyond the call of duty and made our vision a reality. We cannot thank them enough! If you truly want to enjoy your day and make memories that will last you and your fiancé and lifetime, I highly recommend Food For The Soul. They actually made all the planning fun.

    Tina and her team at Food for the Soul are incredible! They helped us plan a wedding that surpassed our wildest dreams. A destination wedding is a leap of faith, and they made the whole process smooth and enjoyable -- from the first planning call to the last song of the night. Tina ensured that we were able to enjoy our own wedding day and be present with our guests. The food was delicious and received compliments from all of our guests.

    Without a doubt, this was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process. Thank you Tina and FFTS!!

    Tina and Susanne, the wedding planners at Food For the Soul are beyond amazing. I visited Maui a year before the wedding and they went out of their way to set up a tasting, bring florists to me to interview, and then spent several mornings taking us to venues and sharing all of their knowledge with us! I then spent a year planning over the phone with Tina and by the end it felt like I planned a huge party with my friend! At the event, they were so incredibly attentive and on top of EVERYTHING! When small a couple of small snafus happened, they did everything in their power to fix it, and they did! They were even wonderful with follow up!! If you are planning to get married on Maui, they are they dream team! Don't look anywhere else!!!

    Food for the Soul also did our catering and that was just as magical!! We decided we wanted a taco bar, which wasn't on their current menu,and they went out of their way to create it for us!! and it was DELICIOUS!!! Everything was so good! And all of their staff...I mean everyone, was incredibly wonderful!

    Tina, Rob and team were wonderful to work with. We had a destination wedding and in the beginning we found it difficult to get any responses from various vendors in a timely manner. When we contacted Tina, we got a response within 24 hours. From our first conversation, she made us feel at ease and didn't feel pressured to make decisions. We immediately found our caterer and wedding planner. She worked within our budget and made herself available whenever we had any questions.

    On our wedding day, the food was amazing. The staff was very friendly and courteous to us and our guests. They took time to explain the dishes, made sure we got a chance to try each of the appetizers and made us feel well taken care of. We had nothing but compliments from our friends and family on our wedding day. Thank you FFTS team!

    Our destination wedding was definitely the best day of our lives thanks to Tina and the team at Food for the Soul catering! Tina and her husband-chef Rob are the owners of Food for the Soul, and what an amazing team they are along with their staff. We wanted to have a memorable wedding reception and Food for the Soul made that happen! They are an all-round company providing catering and bartending services, and coordination services with rentals, vendor recommendations etc.

    I contacted FFTS after taking a look at the delicious menu on their website and after reading numerous positive reviews on various wedding websites including Yelp. We went with their Island Buffet menu as we wanted our guests to experience the Aloha flavor and spirit. Being foodies ourselves, our guests couldn’t stop raving about how delicious the appetizers and all of the courses were! All of the food options can be customized to your liking. They were even able to accommodate a few of my guests who were vegetarian, and cooked them a special entree for them.

    From day one of planning our wedding day, Tina has guided us throughout the process with her kind and friendly spirit. She would set-up regular phone chats to keep us on track until the big day came. Tina always called us on the dot and never missed a phone chat even with the difference in time zones. She truly cared about us and wanted our wedding day to go as smooth and stress free as possible, this includes watching the island weather reports up until the day of the wedding. Thank you Tina and the FFTS team for braving the rain blessings on our special day!

    Food for the Soul helped my wife and I plan and execute an amazing 10th anniversary/vow renewal event in Kaanapali this summer. Their professionalism and flexibility left us with no doubt that we worked with the right company. On top of that the food was amazing!

    I would like to thank Susanne, Tina and the entire Food For The Soul team for helping me coordinate and provide the catering for our wedding. I found this company through Yelp and was probably the best decision we made for the wedding. From our first email and to our last, I can't help but say I developed a relationship with Susanne. Susanne was very patient, informative, sincere and a pleasure to talk to the entire time. As part of their coordination services, we were able to exchange countless emails and she would follow up with phone calls from time to time, and at the right times, it was a very organized yet relaxed process which I loved. I also loved that I can easily call them as well whenever I had urgent questions. They were always willing to work with any vendor I chose and gave me very useful vendors as well when I couldn't find any on my own. Their helpful suggestions and advice during the times when I felt stumped with ideas was such a relief. And on the wedding day, everything flowed so smoothly. Our friends who attended and those who saw via pictures commented how beautiful everything looked and admired the details of it all. The food tasted excellent, very fresh, of course, and was so pretty to look at. We got the macadamia baked brie, fruit platter and bacon wrapped scallops as appetizers..I was so busy with the pictures, most of the time I could only see the appetizers from afar, but the team was so nice to have saved some for us so we can try it all. We also got the Paniolo BBQ buffet and ice cream bar and they were delicious as well! All of the staff were friendly and willing to help and accommodate. The wedding really was an out of the world experience. If I had to go back in time and do it over, I definitely would pick Food For the Soul again and would be so excited to re-live the magical day all over again! :D I'm sad it's all done, and I really miss everyone we worked with, thank you again for making the day so special and memorable for us!

    Tina and all the staff from Food for the Soul were amazing!!!. All the food was delicious from the appetizers to the main course. Guests are still raving about how great the food was. Tina made the wedding planning process completely stress free. She was always available whenever I had any questions and was very flexible even when I had to add in guests last minute. On the day of the wedding, Tina took care of everything and ensured it all went seamless. I can't say enough to thank her for all her work and coordination that made my wedding day absolutely perfect. I highly recommend anyone getting married on Maui to use Food for the Soul. You will not be disappointed!

    OMG - We loved working with FFTS. The food was ah-mazing! One of our uncle's is a rancher and said his filet was one of the best steak's he has ever had. It was melt-in-your-mouth delicious.

    We did a food tasting with FFTS prior to going with them and were thoroughly impressed with everything we tried. And we ate A LOT.

    During the wedding, I never was able to grab any appetizers and was a bit bummed. FFTS left a small tray of appetizers on the table in front of my spot so I could enjoy that portion of the meal (which was so tasty - pineapple beef sliders, coconut shrimp and ahi rolls). This was such a nice touch that the servers didn't have to do, but it just went above and beyond our expectations.

    We did a plated dinner since our wedding was on the smaller side and served the filet mignon and macadamia nut mahi mahi. They also easily changed the meals to accommodate the dietary needs of some of our guests (gluten-free and food allergies).

    We loved working with FFTS and our family is still talking about how amazing the food was!

    Food for the Soul recently catered our post-wedding day brunch for our Maui destination wedding for which we had approximately 80 people who travelled to attend. Living in California and not knowing too much about local catering establishments in Maui, I called 8 caterers, and spoke to and received menus and estimates from 6 of them (a couple of nameless caterers did not respond to my inquiries until it was too late). I reached out to Food for the Soul via the phone number listed on their website. Tina (part of the wife/husband team that own/manage Food for the Soul) promptly returned my call. Tina was very pleasant to deal with on the phone and has a welcoming personality. She took the time to listen to me explain what type of event I had in mind, and generally what type of food I thought I wanted. Tina guided me through all the different options I had with regard to services she could provide, as well as menu options, and after our discussion was through, she promised to give me a few different menu options for me to preview.
    A couple of days after our phone call, I received an email from Tina which included 3 different menus. The toughest part was choosing between the three since all options were so appetizing. We set up a phone call during which I picked a menu and had a couple of items added. Tina was patient, helpful, and very eager to please throughout the entire process. She made sure I felt confident that I should not hesitate if I had any questions or concerns.

    Since we were having guests drop-in as they pleased over a 4 hour period, we opted not to have servers - Food for the Soul is VERY accommodating. On the day of the brunch the food was delivered, along with all plates, utensils, and napkins, by two Food for the Soul employees who were professional and kind. The set-up/presentation was great and the food was spectacular. The food was devoured by our guests, who couldn't stop raving about how good it was.

    AMAZING!!!!! Simply the best!!! I definitely recommend Food for the Soul for anyone getting married on Maui! Tina and her team are so helpful and professional that they take stress off your plate. Not only are they great to work with but the food is WONDERFUL! A month later, we still have our guests talking about how great the food was. The staff is very friendly, I felt great that with their staff. Food for the Soul has so many options that you can really customize your food to suit your needs and wants. They are truly so easy to work with. I also think they are incredibly well priced. You will not be disappointed with Food For the Soul if I had to use them again for anything I definitely would.

    There were a few elements of our wedding that we weren’t willing to compromise on, the venue and food were two of our highest priorities. We were lucky enough to visit Maui prior to our wedding and complete tastings from a couple different caterers. Food for the Soul far surpassed the others, the tasting was amazing. Rob had a small team that helped with the tasting and we were able to sample a ton of their appetizers, main courses and desserts. We had some hard choices to make because everything was delicious.

    Leading up to the wedding we had the pleasure of working with Tina on the details of the menu. She was very organized, took all of our feedback and input and provided recommendations based on their extensive experience. They were able to accommodate different changes and requests throughout the planning process, it was comforting to know we had flexibility to adjust based on our guests and preferences.

    The evening of our wedding their team was more than we could have asked for. They were attentive to every detail, service was impeccable and more importantly the food was delicious and beautifully presented. We were taking photos while appetizers were being served, as soon as we were done Rob personally delivered our plates to us and ensured we had a little sample of everything. Our guests still talk about how good the food was.

    Tina and Rob are both amazing, extremely organized and very attentive to every detail and element of the food and experience.

    Food For The Soul catering was fantastic to work with. My husband and I planned our wedding in Maui from Alaska and the entire process was seamless. Tina was lovely to work with and truly dedicated herself to our event; I cannot say enough to possibly thank her for helping us coordinate our special day. She was kind, professional, thorough, and all of her estimates were transparent (something I value as my husband and I were planning long-distance). Even more impressive is that she handled a torrential downpour on our wedding day and managed to ensure that our reception was still beautiful. All of our guests had a great time. The entire staff is dedicated to quality- not only in terms of the service, but for the food as well. Our custom family-style dinner was a crowd-pleaser and our guests are still talking about how impressed they were! I would recommend Tina and the Food For The Soul team at a moment’s notice and feel blessed to have met them.

    The Food For the Soul Team was absolutely amazing!!! Tina helped us plan everything little detail, and she helped make it flawless!! I can honestly say there wasn't one thing I would change or went badly on our wedding day and it was all because of Tina and her remarkable team!!

    I was in nursing school while planning my wedding from CA, and she helped relieve so much stress of the planning with her organization and her knowledge of the field. we spoke serveal times during the planning process and she kept me on track with everything I needed! If I ever had a question she was quick to respond and so helpful.

    The food was AMAZING! I wish they had a restaurant to eat at it was that fabulous!! We had so many compliments at our wedding regarding how delicious the food was and service. Their rates are budget friendly but quality service and food! Which makes all the more reason to use them.

    I wish we could do it all over again and again and again!! It was the best night and so much fun!!
