    Wow. Outstanding food. Exemplary Service.

    We had a difficult situation with weather and the team needed to pivot twice to make our wedding and dinner work out for us. Logistics were very difficult trying to get in out of the rain and dealing with three flights of stairs to get to our "plan B" location but, Jackie and the entire team were amazing and the food was really, really great. We requested a spinach and strawberry salad, filet mignon and lobster tails with grilled parmesean asparagus. We decided not to have a cake but, instead, requested a dessert trio for each guest including a lemon cheesecake tart with blueberry compote and a chocolate mousse tart with whipped cream and candied pecans. Our chef did such an amazing job on the tenderloin that we decided to keep the leftovers like some couples keep the top of their cake. We won't wait a year to eat it but we did freeze two portions for our one-week anniversary!!

    Grayton Beach Catering New Year's Eve Wedding

    If you are looking for a destination wedding look no further than Grayton Beach Catering at the Gardens of Monet. I am a local in the area and cannot express how pleased we were that we picked this venue and vendor. The owner (Sherri) and coordinators (Melinda & Kim) were fabulous to work with as was ALL the service staff working the night of the event. I cannot express enough how wonderful everyone is that works in this organization. The food was out of this world and the Chef was interactive with guest to ensure all was just perfect - to say it was the best food we had our entire stay is not an understatement - our guests are still talking about the food and service. The night of the wedding it rained and we had to add tents - but no worry the venue handled everything and while I worried it would not be as pretty I was wrong! It was even more beautiful and just a magical night. The strung lights, drapery, and florals made the gardens even more romantic. The staff are so professional and are there to make your dream wedding a reality - and they did! I would recommend this vendor and venue to anyone looking for great service, excellent food, and beautiful surroundings where everything is designed to meet your vision.

    Gbc is the best!

    Would recommend over and over! All of our guests said multiple times “THIS IS THE BEST WEDDING WE’VE EVER BEEN TO!” Cheri & the crew at GBC made the best day of our lives the most stress free and fun day we could’ve ever imagined! Christine is the best coordinator and so fun! Melinda made planning a wedding from 6 hours away seem like we were sitting in Monet Monet each time we spoke via email or phone! Easily the best wedding vendor in the country!

    Exceptional service and food

    We were thrilled by the food and service provided by Grayton Beach Catering! They went above and beyond to take care of us. The shrimp boil, wedding cake, and chocolate fountain were amazing! In planning a destination wedding, they made it simple and perfect.

    Wedding Weekend-Destination wedding

    Grayton Beach Catering hosted the entire wedding for approx 150 people from the welcome /rehearsal dinner to the post wedding brunch. They turned each event into a magical fairyland at every venue. The food was definitely the highlight with great compliments from everyone.

They were very friendly and very helpful!! Cheri, Jenna, Michael, Jessica and Donovan-You guys were amazing and made the event stress free and fun!!!

    Absolutely Perfect!!

    I cannot say enough great things about Grayton Beach Catering!! They did an amazing job!! Our wedding was absolutely perfect. There is not one thing that did not go to plan! I honestly cannot believe how smoothly everything went. Our day of coordinator, Becky, was amazing!!! I had multiple people come up to me telling me they wish they had Becky for their wedding. We went to take "cutting of the cake" pictures and when we came back, Becky let me know she had taken our food to put in the warmer until we were done. Just the small things like that blew me away! The food was amazing! We had a Street Taco station and a Grit station. Everyone absolutely loved the food! We had so many people come up to us to tell us it was the best wedding they have ever been to! I would 100% recommend Grayton Beach Catering to anyone!!

    Wedding of Her Dreams

    Our daughters wedding was absolutely wonderful. Cheri Peebles worked with her to accommodate her needs and wishes. Every vendor she used was an absolute professional. Our daughter summed it up when she said , "It was the wedding of my dreams."

    Beyond impressed with Grayton Beach Catering - staff and food were a dream!

    PERFECTION - the only word I have for my experience with Grayton Beach Catering. From the initial planning months ago to the day of my wedding, every detail was planned out perfectly. It was exactly what I wanted. Christine (day of coordinator) was beyond helpful and patient. The private dinner with chef & server was a dream! If you're considering any catering and/or event coordinating in the Santa Rosa Beach area, I would highly recommend GBC! The food is delicious!

    Grayton Beach Catering was absolutely wonderful! The food was phenomenal and so was the service the day off. They are also a full service company and also coordinated the equipment rentals, flowers and cake. They made the entire wedding stress free and perfect. Strongly recommend using them. They were organized, timely and it is worth mentioning the food was delicious again.

    Grayton Beach Catering is the BEST!

    GBC is the best full service catering company I have worked with. They catered the Rehearsal Dinner for my Son’s wedding. The staff is excellent and the food is delicious. They are so easy to work with, very responsive to every need and give advice that makes your event perfect. I highly recommend GBC and guarantee you will not be disappointed!

    I cannot recommend this company more! My husband and I were married on Seagrove Beach in Santa Rosa Beach, FL among 50-60 guests. Grayton Beach Catering provided our reception on the beach. Cheri went above and beyond to plan this portion of our special day! She helped us stick to our budget as well, which we appreciated. We had the full reception, shrimp boil, cake, dancing, and all on the beach outside of our rental home. I wasn't worried about inclement weather because Cheri assured me we would make it work in the rental home without stress! Fortunately, the weather was great. Don and his crew arrived early in the morning to help setup. He was also present to say hello, make sure all was going smoothly, and drop off the shrimp boil. Our guests and wedding party are still raving about the food! Cake was provided by Sweet Henrietta's Treats. I sent Pinterest pictures to Cheri and her staff on what I envisioned for our cake and it turned out better than even imagined. I wish I remembered the names of staff present at the reception. Everyone involved with GBC was so friendly and fun! I placed full trust in Cheri and her team and we were more than pleased. :)

    First Class Service done with Love.

    Grayton Beach Catering is the largest catering business on 30A (South Walton) for good reason ! They deliver first class service, and everything is made with love. I have known Cheri and Donald for many, many, years, and have always known them to be honest, fair and always committed to delivering a first class experience. They are big enough to handle any event, but small enough, where you are still treated as a good friend and a highly valued client ! I would highly recommend them to anyone, for any event. Everything they do, is done with LOVE !
    Peter Hans Frohwein, Huntsville, Alabama.

    PS: They will always go the extra mile to make sure you are always taken care of !

    I can not say how happy we were, everything was amazing, it was PERFECT! We had a 20 year renewal and celebrated it with friends with dinner on the beach and bonfire. The food was AMAZING and the service was awesome. Thank you for making our night one of the best nights of our lives.

    Grayton Beach Catering is WONDERFUL!

    We loved working with the team at GBC! Getting married during a pandemic was super stressful but they made the process really easy and they were flexible with our plans as guidelines, etc. changed. The venue and the food were perfect, we couldn't have asked for a better evening!

    I have seen the negative reviews and I had a positive experience with Cheri Pebles and Grayton Beach Catering. We used them for a bonfire on the beach and the rehearsal dinner. The rehearsal and bonfire took place at Inlet Beach. We originally had it set up for Rosemary Beach but then were going to have to pay for 2 security guards and felt this was unnecessary. Cheri was not always the best with emails but if we called and needed anything she made it happen. She was easy to work with and we made changes with guest count and chairs and she was accommodating. We also had Carousel liquor bring the booze for the event. Cheri offered for her staff to meet them so we didn't have to deal with bringing the alcohol or having to meet them prior to the rehearsal. The food was wonderful. We just did a low country boil and had smores. Everyone loved how laid back it was and getting to have smores. We ended up getting citations for having wine on the beach. I guess we should have known. Instead of making a big deal of this the staff paid the citations and just said it happens all the time. The staff was so friendly and very good at what they do. They always checked to see if we ended anything and cleaned up everything. I couldn't be happier with our bonfire and rehearsal dinner. I would recommend Grayton Beach Catering again.

    It's been little over a year since we used Grayton Beach catering. We had a shrimp boil on the beach and they catered our wedding in the gardens of Monet Monet. We had a destination wedding, so people are still commenting on how big the shrimp were, or how great the smoked Amberjack was. They were very accommodating, and easy to work with. Communication was difficult but they know what they are doing, they weren't as stressed as I was. They had everything under control. Presentation was amazing, every small detail was thought of. They went above and beyond, service was great!

    Through emails and phone calls, Grayton Beach Catering put together our rehearsal dinner and reception. We couldn't be more thrilled! All the details I needed help with, they had the answers, from hair and makeup to the DJ. Oh, and let's not forget the food . . .WOW! Everyone was so happy. We had requested samples of the cake be sent overnight since we couldn't make it down prior to our date to do a tasting, but they couldn't send them. We picked two neutral flavors and were not disappointed. The baker nailed our design too! If you are doing a destination wedding in the Destin area, I highly recommend Grayton Beach Catering.
