    Fresh Horizons did such an amazing job for my wedding! We had wanted a full vegan menu and I was having such a hard time finding someone who could do it. Originally, the venue was going to provide the catering, but after trying to get them to understand the vegan menu without success, I knew I had to look for a new caterer. I contacted Fresh Horizons with only about 3 months to go before the wedding And from the get go they were super friendly and excited to do the full vegan menu. We ended up having them also do the catering for the Rehearsal dinner and the brunch the day after. They were so open minded and creative with the menu. Everything was absolutely delicious. Even the "steak and potato only" eaters were commenting on how amazing the food was. I am so glad that we found them and that they were apart of our day!

    From my first phone conversation with Fresh Horizons, I knew I had to have them cater my wedding. The food was delicious and the staff are professional and provide excellent customer service. They truly went above and beyond to make our day perfect. I highly recommend them, if not for the incredibly caring staff members, for the outstanding food!

    Mary at Fresh Horizons was absolutely wonderful! We met with a few caterers and NONE of them made us feel as comfortable as she did. I couldn't put a price on how nice it was to not worry about chairs, linens, food, cake cutting....they did it all and they did it well!!! Thank you, Mary!!!

    This company was fabulous. They catered to our every need. The food was delicious and they took care of everything. Even the things I forgot, they had for me. They did the food and the linens. They are flexible and so helpful.

    My experience with Kathe was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond to ensure that my wedding was planned and executed perfectly, and even coordinated a rehearsal without extra charge. The food was phenomenal, and my guests all commented on how delicious it was. My cake was just as tasty, and it was beautiful and tastefully decorated as well! All in all, if I had to do it all over again, I would choose Kathe at Fresh Horizons a million times over!

    Fresh Horizons is amazing. They are so helpful. We did not have a wedding coordinator, but Fresh horizons kind of became our de facto coordinator. She helped so much with all of the planning for the reception, from table arrangement to lighting to where to put the music.
    Her food was amazing as well. She gave us some options initially, but in the end we were able to customize to fit our tastes. A++++++!!

    From the moment that my new husband and I sat down with Caryn to discuss our wedding, we new we were in great hands. Caryn was a terrific listener, and at the same time knew when to chime in and make suggestions. She prepared a fantastic menu for us that not only combined our personal tastes and wants, but also gave our guests a wide selection of different delectable foods to choose from.

    Caryn not only prepared a menu that was to DIE FOR! But she also was incredibly thoughtful about the linens, the decor and the feeling of every station that she put together. Her team was absolutely fantastic the night of the reception. They were so nice and courteous and polite. Our server, at our sweetheart table, was a perfect gentleman and made sure we were happy and satiated.

    The first things we heard from when we walked around the reception hall was, "This food is SO GOOD!" People were so incredibly happy and full by the end of the night! And that made me happy and stress free the whole night.

    We couldn't have ask for a better caterer. I can't even call her a caterer, a miracle worker maybe, an angel probably, just an all around amazingly awesome person and team to work with.

    Thank you for everything Caryn!!! The night was PERFECT!

    Fresh Horizons was wonderful! They catered my rehearsal dinner - which ended up being very large and including both our families - and my wedding! The food was spectacular! I have been to many weddings where the food was sub par. Why pay so much money for something that does not taste good? Fresh Horizons will not disappoint! They are great to work with, have creative approaches to traditional dishes, wonderful plating - everyone was impressed! They will work one on one to accommodate your needs and customize your menu. You get to have a tasting and meet the chefs. Fresh Horizons has a great creative staff, wonderful rentals, and unique ideas. They also offer a wedding planning service, which I used for the day of my wedding - it was wonderful to have someone coordinate my day without me having to worry about a thing!

    We had our wedding at the Japanese Tea Garden so we had no choice but to work with Fresh Horizons. Although they are pricey, their food was great. Their servers were nice but not very efficient. If you are working with Fresh Horizons through the Japanese Tea Garden, expect things to not be as planned or perfectly set up, even if it is all stated in your contract. As far as food though, I would recommend Fresh Horizons to a friend.

    We used Fresh Horizons Catering for both our catering and bartending (we provided alcohol).The food and the presentation of the food were wonderful! We received so many compliments on how excellent the food was. However, we did have problems with the bartending. The bars were not stocked quickly enough and there were several times that the bartenders would say that they were out of something, and then next time you went they would have it. The bar staff did not appear adequate for the size of the party or were just not very well prepared. While the caterer was very easy to work with during the planning of the event, there were a few things they claimed they would do that they didn't (make sure the bride/groom/parents received a plate of hors d'oeuvre, complimentary champagne for the bride and groom’s toasts). In addition, the caterer was hired on to be the wedding coordinator for the day of services. I do not recommend using Fresh Horizons for the day of coordination. There were several instances throughout the night where our coordinator was nowhere to be found. The coordinator had appointed someone to take care of the bride and groom throughout the evening. However, once we got up from the table after dinner, we never saw this person again.

    Bottom line: The food was delicious and highly recommened. The bartending staff, which was provided through Fresh Horizons, was inadequate. I do not recommend Fresh Horizons for the day or coordiantion.

    Fresh Horizons catered my wedding in May 2016. I signed a contract with one of their fabulous coordinators in August of 2015. I found out that she left the company when I called a couple months before my wedding and now I know why! The owner of Fresh Horizons, Caryn, is horrible at customer service and dealing with clients. My wedding planner and I were in constant email communication with her about the wedding, but she seemed to get overwhelmed with the emails and made us wait at least a week for a response due to "so many edits to the contract." We wouldn't have had to send some many emails if she would have gotten it right the first time.... The major hiccup was that they told us a month before the wedding that they could not serve alcohol at our venue because of a TABC licensing issue, but they knew my wedding venue when I signed the contract. And the contract included an unlimited beer & wine package. When we finally received our final bill (minus alcohol) 6 days before the wedding it was outrageous and more than the initial contract! We had a meeting with Caryn a few days before the wedding and she was less than professional and had snippy comebacks to everything we mentioned. The only pricing in the whole contract she was able to give us was per plate of food and we found out that she overcharged us by $200 in that category alone. They removed that but were unwilling to itemize everything else in the contract, which is a huge red flag for a catering company. We gave up with dealing with her, paid the bill, and went on our way hoping that they wedding wouldn't have any hiccups. The wedding ended up great, but we vastly overpaid on the catering portion. Be wary of this company and request line items up front before signing a contract so that everything can be added up when it comes down to the wire. My assumption is that they upped the price on everything when they realized they were missing out on the alcohol service at our wedding (which was their fault).
